oscar + rookies with rockstar reader?
you didn't specify which rookies so i'm gonna do all four "rookies" i write for! also this is very stereotypical, i'm so sorry haha
gn!rockstar!reader
cw: suggestive (liam)
oscar piastri:
probably not super into rock music but absolutely listens to the stuff you or your band creates because duh you're involved
thinks you're hot anyways, but if you play an instrument, that's even hotter to him and he's totally down to watch you practice
got lando into your music and now lando will always playfully run up and fanboy and ask for your autograph every time he sees you
loves your piercings and tattoos and will often times zone out and trail his fingers along them in a perfectly formed path - he knows the layout of your tattoos like the back of his hand, he's spent that long looking at them
is the best person to bring along for getting piercings because he doesn't even flinch, he'll just ask if you're okay and then hand you a fizzy drink or sweet when you need it
always backstage at your concerts because he doesn't want to run the risk of people noticing and focusing on him instead of you and your performance, but he'll always congratulate you after each one
liam lawson:
he's so fucking obsessed with the fact that you're a rockstar, i'm not even joking - this man is so down bad for you
he plays guitar already but if you also play guitar, he'll beg you to teach him your songs on your electric/bass guitar because he is so obsessed with your shared hobby
recommends your music to everyone because he thinks it is legit the best thing ever and he's convinced everyone needs to consume it
definitely finds your tattoos and piercings hot and will often times zone out and get a boner just from looking at them or sometimes even thinking about them
cannot watch you get pierced - not only does he flinch and cringe and unintentionally make things worse, he also makes stupid ass comments like "you've got a hole in your face" which... thank you for stating the obvious, liam
you get him to sit on stage during one performance and you have to do it every performance after that because he hypes up the crowd and boosts your moral so well
ollie bearman:
honestly was a bit gobsmacked the first time he found out you were a rockstar like... how did you hide that from him for so long? (easily, actually. he's very oblivious)
banned from touching your instruments because you know that he'll probably break something within the first fifteen seconds, but you let him stay and watch you practice
rarely listens to your music but that's because he doesn't want it to grow old to his ears - he always listen to it pre-race, however, as he finds that the chaotic energy of it really boosts his motivation
nearly fainted when he saw your tattoos for the first time - he's in awe and adoration and he can't help but stare at em, occasionally grabbing whatever part of you is tattooed and tugging it towards him so he can look all over again
watched you get pierced once and panicked so badly after seeing the needle go through that he had to wait outside so he didn't throw up or panic any harder
loves watching your concerts and loves being in the crowd with all of your fans because he finds your community and its sense of camaraderie to be so fucking fun and exciting
kimi antonelli:
not into rock music but he does go around telling everyone that you are the best ever despite the fact that he rarely ever listens to any other rock music
not interested in learning the instruments you can play, but he does actually have really good skill with them and you silently mourn the amazing musician he could've been
rarely listens to your music like ollie, but, unlike ollie, it's because he's not a fan of the genre - he will listen to your new albums a couple of times, but they're not on his regular playlists - he still highly recommends your stuff though!
admires your tattoos whether they are elegant or haunting or both and he often thinks about getting one but, after watching you get tattooed once, he swore against it for the time being
unlike with tattoos, though, he can watch you get pierced with no problems, especially if you barely flinch - he finds it fascinating, to be honest
in your crowd and very proud! he's not super loud (okay why am i rhyming) but he's mouthing along to the lyrics of your songs and chatting with your fans around him like its his full time job
jack doohan:
lowkey very fucking into this - you/your band will be his #1 artist on spotify wrapped, his fave song of yours is #1 and he's just.. actually so obsessed with you
loves to watch you practice playing your instruments and he'd be willing to learn but he finds it too hard to keep practicing with how hectic your schedules are
pierre is so fucking tired of hearing the same three songs of yours come out of jack's driver's room - he's learnt all the lyrics to these songs now and he's begging jack to switch it up, even if it's just to three other songs of yours
thinks your tattoos are so fucking cool and is always down to accompany you to appointments - he's also a good distraction for you because he's chats away with the tattoo artist like they're life long besties
the inverse of kimi, jack cannot watch you get a piercing, it terrifies the fuck out of him and he has to wait outside the room until you're done because otherwise he's gonna be so stressed
doesn't like being in the crowd at your concerts because he'd rather watch from the side of the stage, admiring you from a more unique angle than the typical fan experience would allow - you once invited him onto the stage and kissed him at the end of the concert and everyone went wild

I know I mentioned i was going to create a little video - or even a Will you be my Vale-nylander-tine card - but then you wrote me such a lovely and amazing story of William being smitten - what an absolute dream that would be. The algorithm on my ig feed was non-stop 50 shades of gray-esque today...but there was one reel that I had originally wanted to send you. But then you inspired me to write you a little something for Dream Boyfriend Day and all I can do is hope that you'll like it because yours I will always cherish.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/15d876368fac84868a3f4bef9694ffc5/f95437d85b6daf5d-b3/s540x810/f7ec3eaedda751c0ee8c4842474dc21c27f5bd86.jpg)
You lay limp in his arms, barely enough strength left to trace a line through the sweat on his abdomen.
William softly kisses your head. "You okay?"
You nod, but the truth is—you’re not okay. You’re beyond any level of okay. You’ve passed the point of no return. Logic no longer rides shotgun in your mind; in its place is an unshakable need, an all-consuming want, and a total adoration for him. Anything before him was nothing—it was all watered-down drivel by comparison.
His voice is low and croaky, the way it was that first time, when he hesitated before asking if he could kiss you. "Don't take this like I’m complaining—because I absolutely am not—but I have never heard you talk that way before… telling me what you wanted in the ways you wanted it."
It’s true. What’s even truer is that you have no idea where this version of you came from—the one who whined and asked for things through gritted teeth. It was all so uncharacteristically bold and unapologetic, coming deep from within. William had unlocked something inside you, something wild that he had drawn out without even trying.
You’re not embarrassed, not really, but you tuck into him anyway, hiding your face just a little.
"I just… I had to say it all. How you were making me feel, what I wanted… I had to get it out so you knew how good it all was."
William smiles, then chuckles softly. "Well, mission accomplished. Probably one of the hottest experiences I’ve ever had."
When you finally find your bearings again, the two of you slide out of bed, meandering into the kitchen. Up until that moment, William had been your only source of sustenance.
As he blends a shake for you both, you scroll through your phone, leaning against the counter, fingers idly flipping through Insta reels—until one grabs your attention.
A simple statement, but one that resonates so deeply - like it had been posted specifically for you to see it in that moment:
"When a woman is the nastiest, sluttiest version of herself in the bedroom, what she’s functionally communicating with her behavior—not with her words, but with her actions—is this: You are the most desirable man I’ve ever met. I’m willing to break the rules I rigidly enforced with all other men… for you."
The words strike a chord because that’s exactly what happened.
William is different. He is kind. He is patient. He is real. And because of that, you’ve found a side of yourself you never even knew existed.
One thing is for certain—William will never have to guess how you feel about him. And the best part?
William is the type who always reciprocates.
Oh babe! This is the perfect mix of hot, sexy, cute, steamy, and romantic all at once 🥰
What a dream to feel that connected to him—thank you so much for this little blurb 🔥😏
And I have to admit—your “Will you be my Vale-nylander-tine?” pick-up line is way better than mine!
Happy Dream Boyfriend Day ❤️🔥
#my asks#baaaaabe! 💕#So so hot 🔥#And so real!#william nylander imagine#wn88 imagine#william nylander blurb#couldawouldashoulda50#deam boyfriend day

Geology and the Extinct Silver Trout
Okay... this is a little out of the scope for this blog I admit... But two days ago I watched this YouTube Documentary by Atlas Pro linked here.
It was super interested and I recommend giving it a watch...and I really can't stop thinking about it.
The REALLY short blip of this entire documentary is looking for the extinct silver trout (Salvelinus agassizii) that was found in these two lakes in Connecticut that were then overfished, and then later outcompeted by introduced species.
A sad story, as most extinction stories are, but there was a lot of interesting points that were brought up in this video, and in very old records regarding the fish and I would like comment briefly on all of this!
First, some background info:
These fish were found in 2 lakes hundreds of miles away from one another, yet not found in any other lakes, ponds, rivers between the two today (notice the stress on today).
Except... 20~ish thousand of years ago these lakes were along rivers that connected to a large glacial lake named Glacial Lake Hitchcock.
Tragically, Lake Hitchcock catastrophically emptied a couple thousand years after forming, leaving the original population of these silver trout gone, and these small remnant populations, very far apart from one another.
I won't really get into the overfishing practices or anything like that because I want you to watch Atlas Pro's video. But something that stuck out to me was that it was a man named Aggasiz's request that specimens of the fish be sent to be identified in the first place, but otherwise I am unsure of if they would have been identified sooner due to the ambiguity of the fish being used against it to allow for more fishing (avoiding fishing seasons and such).
But this entire video I heard whispers of that name, that I couldn't shake off. The name Louis Aggasiz... Now for the geology community this may ring some bells as the first man to hypothesis about the existence of ice ages!
And upon looking it up, it was in fact the same Louis Aggasiz!
How ironic right? Agassiz the man who first considered ice ages (documentary about that here), had also been the person to push for the identification and preservation of a fish population created because of a glacial lake that occupied the area thousands of years ago.
Anyway!!
One of the questions Atlas Pro had at the was quite simple. "two of these lakes hosted these populations, could there be more remaining we had never discovered? A fun idea to ponder! Especially because these locations still have large swaths of pristine land.
He opened this out to researches and people about to go into a Master's and Ph.D. to look into! and I also agree. This could be the perfect collaborative study in geology, geography, and biology!
Anyway, I hope y'all watch the video and the documentary linked. I have since binged a lot of Atlas Pro's content and it filled the void that was forming from lack of Miniminuteman's videos. Later!

There's a lot of stuff I'd love to do but then there's only so much time and only so much external interest regarding such events too.
Some sort of short fic exchange for non-juggernaut WN ships or some funky comment fic place or a capslock community for all your unhinged commentary needs or a WN bingo... I don't know, something.
#don't mind me i am old and i want journal-type fandom back is all#i understand some of you might engage in similar activities on discord or whatever but that's really not what i envision#the short fic exchange could even be a drabble exchange. we leave the big ship out though or else it would overtake the thing#anyway. something something creating community.#speaking of i'll probably be less active here starting apr 25th up to may 15th. that's because 3 weeks for dreamwidth will be on#the drabbles will still be posted here on the fridays during that period but i'm thinking of hanging out there a bit more#maybe i can pull one of you in to hang out with me there. maybe one day we'll have enough numbers for a cosy community lol#that's the point of the event though. see if any fresh meat can be seduced by dw ;)#i have a few hild icons i mean to post and i'd like to finish my 1x02 wn batch as well but that seems unlikely atm#we'll see. thinking of some meta too. and whatever i end up writing for fan_flashworks will stay on dw until the event is over as well#so you might want to keep an eye on there if you're interested!#i have the same username there as here so it's easy to spot me#silly blabbering

me when i get the opportunity to think about speculative biology and non-existent game mechanics in media i like
⠀
#the candle creatures are revamps#i had created the idea for them years ago but i wanted to redo them slightly with new eyes#the “dark variants” of the mantas and birds are variants of them that have adapted for life in wasteland and the forests#and also#i like the idea of candle creatures that live in villages or within communities#that are sort of akin to strays that the whole community takes care of#means alot to me#this isnt everything ive been thinking about#ill make a couple diagrams about the large birds#yknow the ones from rhythm that we see once and never again. yeah.#they exist in my heart#anyway#skycotl#sky cotl#sky children of the light#sky#sky:cotl#sky: cotl#thatskygame#speculative biology#<- i guess?#im having fun ok#im happy to answer questions about my thoughts btw!#might be answered on my main if i cant muster a doodle or something#but i love answering asks#so if ur interested id love to hear thoughts :)

for anyone who has ever seen someone claim pansexual was coined on social media by teenagers in the early 2000s, the 2010s, and even in the past few years, and believed it or wondered if it’s true, or known it’s not true and been annoyed by the misinformation, this article is for you!
after listing out all of the claims i’ve seen, i succinctly debunk them by laying out a brief overview of pansexual’s history dating back to the 1960s, both as a term generally indicating universal appeal/inclusion and a term indicating sexual freedom/attraction to all genders. i include a look at pansexual’s use specifically within queer spaces, with a focus on bisexual spaces, as well.
i also touch briefly on omnisexual and polysexual existing in similar contexts to pansexual dating back to the 1960s. and finally, i discuss a little bit about how when, where, and by whom a label is created doesn’t determine the validity or usefulness of it, because these claims come with the implication that new labels, labels created by kids, and labels originating on social media aren’t legit forms of queer expression and identification.
happy pan week! 🥰💗💛💙
#pansexual#pansexuality#pan pride#pan positivity#pan week#medium#text#mine#and as always please remember that queer people have always played with language#and tweaked it until it worked for us and utilized what we felt seen by#and filled in the gaps with our own creations where we didn’t feel understood and left the rest#queer people expressing themselves in a way that feels authentic to them is always a good thing#truly don’t understand why the when where and by whom a label was created would matter more than someone feeling seen by a label#because while we’re talking about new labels made by kids online with regard to pansexual#so much of queer language has been reclaimed or repurposed from completely different (and often bigoted) origins#and people barely even acknowledge it. but suddenly the origin is crucial when it’s a label folks have a vendetta against#and listen. learning history is fun and important but we aren’t beholden to it.#we can have new meanings and uses and completely new words!!! it’s fine!!!! it’s not that serious!!!#maybe one day pansexual will fall completely out of use and people will find a different word to express it or something similar#and that’d be fine. and maybe one day after that someone will come across an old post about pansexuality and decide it speaks to them#and it will all happen again. and that will be fine. language is like that. self-identification is like that.#y’all take all of the fun and joy and excitement out of finding or creating language that perfectly captures how we feel#and then finding a community of people who feel the same way we do#y'all focus so much on the parts that don't matter. find your language find your people that's what matters#not finding something to use against someone else who feels seen by a word you don't feel seen by#anyways. pansexual isn't new. stop spreading lies because you care too much about things that don't matter

Day 16, final day before the Pristine Cut, my attempt at Ms. Chain Princess (possibly Prison3r but I've seen ppl speculate she's sp3ctre) from the trailer. See you all post pristine-cut 🫡
#slay the princess#stp#pristine cut spoilers#<- for anyone who wants to go in COMPLETELY blind#art#im of the opinion she's prison3r bc of all the chains + face in shadows#(prison3r seems to come from post head-abandonment so it would make sense if she's got some head weirdness going on)#i unfortunately don't really see the argument for sp3ctre#however I do agree with some of the reasoning i saw#i saw someone point out that since there are already assets in-game for a sp3ctre ending where you stab yourself while possessed#it doesn't really make sense for it to get replaced by something new#and i kind of agree tbh. like im prepared to eat my words but i think the possession-stab gambit is going to remain the same#what if we're both wrong and this is somehow dams3l tho. what then#anyway i feel a bit bittersweet about pris cut coming out#ive had so much fun in this community & knowing there's no new content after this (aside from some merch)#is a lil sad#like im sure i'll be revisiting the game plenty & probably continue creating fanart#but i am going to miss there being such active ongoing discussion around it#but I will be picking up scarlet hollow sometime and YOU SHOULD TOO!!!

i finally deleted twitter! it sucks that i’ve lost that little corner of the fandom, but it didn’t make sense to maintain once it was in musk’s hands, so this was long overdue. i will always credit the skam fandom that i found over there back in 2017 for shaping me as a writer, as well as for inspiring me to travel. i know it was considered a toxic place for the fandom even back then, but it was a platform i grew up with and could communicate on, which meant i connected with some very lovely people. i was devastated when my original account was suspended back in like, 2021? because i had lost a lot of early writing and some friends who had moved on to other fandoms at that point. but i tried to take screenshots of what i had left. a lot of my links to twitter won’t work now, either, but that’s what you get when you depend on someone else as an archival tool.
anyway, a couple of years ago i was thinking about even’s notebook and that became these tweets below the cut. my shorter ideas might end up here now, or on bluesky.

Okay finished my arcane season 1 rewatch (and I absolutely didn’t cry again) (I'm lying I'm still wiping the tears off) and god it really is a master class of storytelling, isn’t it.
The last episode being called 'the monster you made'. Silco condemning Vander for giving up fighting because it endangered those he loves, only to then himself being unable to obtain his goal because it would mean giving up the only person he loves and he finally understands. Zaun being inches from getting their independence and freedom only for a hurt child to blow it all up in the name of the father figure she killed to protect a sister who left her. Because that's the thing, isn’t it. Jinx and Silco are monsters and legitimate villains but only becaue Piltover created them. They made their own choices sure, but they were choices that would never have even been on the table if they didn't exist in the constant despair and desperation and loss that is living in oppression under a police state that fancies itself a utopia. Piltover and the council built their own monsters and were then shocked and horrified when they acted the part and bit back.
#portraying an oppressed person fighting the oppressors as monstrous is really really hard to do right#bc it will often come off as arguing in favor of the status quo and condemning resistance as a whole#rather than as something inevitable created by the violence of oppression#and which will keep happening as long as the oppression remains#thus painting the oppression itself as the true evil which must be defeated bc IT is the true root of the cycle of violence#(jemisin's broken earth trilogy and stevenson's nimona comic all handle this topic excellently. go read them)#arcane adding the distinction of ekko and the firelights also heightens it#bc they are true resistance fighters who actually care about the well being of their community#while silco is simply trampling anyone in his way and exploiting said community if it gets him even an inch closer to his goal#anyway. on to season 2#which I've heard handles the themes of oppression and resistance less deftly#oh well. if i don’t like it there's always fic lol#nella talks#arcane

Ok yes America hating the cold is funny (eh) BUT. have you considered that I like the imagery of an America sitting alone in the forest in the bleak mid-winter landscape of an east coast woods, all alone in both body and mind, agonizing over her seeming doom to be stuck in the throes of loneliness for all eternity?
#aph nyo america#aph america#i want engagement <3#secret confession i actually hate that canonically america doesnt do well in the cold#it gives too much ammo to the west coasters (villains) who can’t let my poor baby alfred be the east coast girl he truly is#also in a broader sense i feel like it creates a weird divide in both the portrayal of america and the connection he has with his country#as its representation#america is one of the most climate diverse countries in the entire world and i feel like making the REPRESENTATION OF AMERICA not be able t#handle a large majority of his country’s climate is an Odd choice and creates an unfortunate barrier between american culture#and the way it’s portrayed in hetalia#imo one of the most amazing parts of the geography of the us is its ability to be a metaphor for the american people#so insanely diverse and fundamentally different and completely irreconcilable—but it works anyways.#the land works together anyways //we// work together anyways we become one anyways despite what any and all logic dictates#what any and all logic DEMANDS#so for america to not be able to represent that cohesion + community—and in fact represent an intense and almost INNATE complete inability#to even try being accepting of and embracing our differences—is just.. not something I like + insinuates a very odd view of American cultur#my eyes are shutting as i type this im so tired#sorry if this is horribly written rip#i see this a lot in the hetalia fandom (IK I JUST DID IT IN THIS POST LMAO BUT I SWEAR I DO IT AS A JOKE; I REALLY DO APPRECIATE THE WEST#COAST AND AM FULLY AWARE OF ITS ROLE IN THE US CULTURE AND FUNCTION) where people write alfred as being almost hostilely exclusionary???#towards certain areas of america—city al who doesn’t like the country; country al who doesn’t like the newfangled cities; northerner al#who hates the southerners (because theyre poor + dont fit the author’s view of respectable people BUT THATS FOR A DIFFERENT POST);southerne#al who hates the northerners—and it’s all very gross to me. america is not—at its core—a country/culture founded on separation!! our ideals#are based on being—at our most basic—separate multi-faceted individuals who COME TOGETHER!! as one because of common ideals and love#E PLURIBUS UNUM!!!!!!#ok im done gn

you know i had a fun little vp idea i wanted to do for the cyberpunk anniversary but i haven't had the energy to even touch it recently so i'll just settle with saying that this game impacted me in ways i never thought it would when i first picked it up 3 years ago. i knew i would enjoy it, i had been looking forward to it for a long time, and despite a ~controversial~ launch, i had a fucking blast from day 1 (on ps4 no less). regardless of bugs and memes and public dunking, the story grabbed me like nothing else could at the time, and it reignited so much of my passion and motivation for art that i had lost in the clutches of mental illness and i'll always be grateful for that. it introduced me to so many wonderful people (some whom i carry very close to my heart), and maybe most personally surprising, it gave me an outlet to understand parts of myself that i had been too afraid to acknowledge for a long time, the courage to accept and embrace myself as non-binary, and allow myself to just BE without trying to convince myself i'm crazy. that's not what i expected from the get-go but it's been a really fun journey to be on ngl
#yeah this fandom been a little rocky in places but i would be lying if i said this community here wasn't special to me#so much love and passion and creativity to be around and be inspired by#so many people who have been impacted by this silly little heartwrenching game#devs who have poured their heart into it to deliver something genuinely incredible#its one of those strange things that really did fully change the trajectory of this little leg of my life#to think that until 3 years ago i hadn't even touched art in a decade#now there are lovely people who want to spend money on my work#3 years ago i bought my first (and only) refurbished ps4 to play this game and now im sitting on a fancy gaming laptop#ive said it before but vp has been such an important creative outlet too#its allowed me to live my dreams of being a film director. a cinematographer. a writer.#the whole game has let me be so damn self-indulgent sometimes i feel like a kid again just unashamedly playing barbie#finding the JOY of just. creating.#i learned so much about myself through an OC because of this game#it went from 'huh what is this feeling? gender envy?' to being like full blown 'oh yea. i get it now.' so much of my life makes sense kfslf#and i met people who mean the world to me on top of it all#woof anyways#i know i say it a lot but genuinely thank u to yall who have encouraged me and supported me and who enjoy the things that i make#youve made such a difference in my life without knowing it!

yo i know that you never check this account anymore but on the off chance that you read this, your techdif passing through edit was one of the most moving things i've ever seen on this website. it warmed my heart so much like wowwww these four plonkers have been making stuff on the internet for us to enjoy for so long and that's cause they've been friends for so long and wow :') anyway i hope you have a nice day
<3 thank u so much!! you too!
#logged on on a whim today to see what the mutuals were up to#completely by chance that I caught this before it was 10 billion years old#it was a very cathartic edit to make. i used to feel sad that i didn't have a friend group#and i felt like i was running out of time to find one or find lifelong friends in general#let alone a group of them#so i really just wanted to show: hey. none of these mfs were 15 and besties or some shit like it's okay and you have time.#lifelong friends are worth waiting for. an open letter to myself i guess#it's a few years later now and i think i maybe found that group#which is surprising because it's in the place i least expected to (and with people i didnt expect it with)#but im hopeful that we can create something really good. im serious about these guys and some of them are serious about me#anyways. the support ive received from the community since making that edit is really special to me. love u guys :)#i hope you're doing good. and thank you for your kind words and bothering enough to say them

my mom, audibly agitated, about an alleged interaction with justin two days ago that he didn't remember having had: I didn't just completely make it up! why would I totally make up a conversation that didn't happen??
me, justin, mom's husband:
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/96e777e946510995cd9ec22b97f5e78a/48f489c24fd8024d-de/s400x600/bb0efdc27ad7fdac6dee17f85a59c28ae628e86c.jpg)
#lmaooooo#THIS was a tiny minor thing with zero importance so we all-- all four of us-- very quickly just went WHATEVER it doesn't matter#but this was extremely funny kdhgdk. yeah mom good question! GREAT question.#totally unrelated but I love living in an era where most communication is text-based and thus creates a paper trail#anyway it must be said that two hours later she texted the group chat like#'I forced myself to really think about it and realized it was actually [brother's friend] I had that conversation with'#WELL waddya know! were you AGITATEDLY INSISTING something happened that you completely misremembered? 🤔#also I wanna just throw out there that the conversation in question was:#'do you want something to drink?' 'sure I'll take a coke :)' and then mom wandering off and forgetting to get it#so already she's group texting this two days later like ohhh my god JUSTIN I'm so SORRY I never got your COKE#okay!#ohhh my god you guys I'm sorry you're right it wasn't justin it was TYLER I didn't get the coke for#.... okay!#justin didn't accuse her of lying or anything either to be clear he was just. REALLY confused dkgjhdfkjgdh#about me

the way digimon does conflict/drama between two characters who should be or are close: chef’s kiss <3
the way sonic idw handles creating conflict/drama between two characters who should be or are close: *wilting flower*
#keyword: adding#in digimon conflicts come about as a result of independent viewpoint differences#ie takuya vs kouji. taichi vs yamato#or (since i just watched 02:the beginning) lui and ukkomon’s conflict is SO GOOD#it BUILDS to something. lui and ukkomon’s disagreement builds up to: they need to communicate. they both come from a good-faith angle#ukkomon so desperately wanted to make lui happy and failed to look closer to see what WOULD - and lui didn’t know how to express#what he actually wanted to ukkomon. or try to reach out to ukkomon in turn instead of basking in his life finally going ‘right’#but then not as much in idw gives me that good feeling of ‘ahhh they built to this and it is so nice’#or when conflict is created it isn’t because despite best efforts people clash and have to work together#it’s when someone does a stupid and someone else has to pick it up#it means a lot when you see kouji driven to press takuya to the wall and see them shout at each other#because they both have to realize that with words they will never convince the other of their viewpoint.#even though they both think the way the other looks at things will get the group killed#and of course it makes sense that the group would follow takuya. he’s their heart. their core#takuya’s the reason tomoki stayed in the digital world and junpei and izumi find confidence being there because he’s there rallying them#and in this case that good trait winds up being wrong. he gets everyone captured by the enemy and thinks theyre all better off if he wasn’t#part of the group from the start. but THAT isn’t true either - he just needs a BALANCE of his excellent helpful determination and willpower#and seeing things as they are and not as he believes them to be - more like kouji#he WAS wrong but not for HAVING the traits he had - for leaning too much on them#or (also going to a media im currently engaging in) sundered star. things go bad between people a LOT but it’s not frustrating.#it’s SATISFYING/ENGAGING seeing feferi leave eridan and watching eridan go insane and give in to the horrorterrors. of course it couldnt-#-go any other way for them. eridan wouldnt change until he realized he could lose feferi and feferi wouldnt bring him any real consequences#-to make him consider that until she was leaving and would never come back. and it was never her fault that leaving eridan lead to-#-catastrophe and devastation. it just happened as a consequence anyway#anyways i guess. if i see the characters do their best and things still fall apart it’s better than#seeing an idiot plot or characters written to be worse than they were to make conflict happen#with takuya he wasn’t suddenly bad or misjudging everything. he just didnt have to deal with negative consequences for misjudging before-#-because they hadnt met someone like duskmon that they COULDNT eventually beat before. even gigasmon who wrecked them all at first-#-was beaten once they had beast spirits and were on equal footing. so takuya assumes the same for duskmon without realizing that#they arent on the same level. so the issue didnt come from nowhere - it just comes to a head now

#Just so fucking bizarre to me how people can be Like This. there has to be something so wrong with your brain on a fundamental level#i can’t even laugh about this or anything because i genuinely feel pity for these people. it’s so sad to me how you’re gonna be like 20#and then go in a niche tumblr community and create drama over Nothing. over Thin Fucking Air#like do you not have a life? do you not have college? or a job? doesn’t it get tiring? don’t you ever feel ashamed about all this#and the fact that they go and complain about the shipping and the ‘fandombrained’ people as well…. oh my god#how are you going to be TWENTY. and DO THAT. are you seriously sick. ? do you need help#just say you are homophobic and that you hate kids and go. it’ll save everyone a bunch of time for sure#anyways. as someone who has been a rain world fan since 2018. i love you embracing canon. i love you changing canon. i love you disregarding#canon entirely. i love you ships that make sense in canon & that make absolutely zero sense at all. i love you fancharacters that don’t#follow canon rules. i love you ‘cringe’ fancharacters and self inserts. i love you self shipping. i love you oc x canon shipping.#and i love you taking inspiration from designs. i love you community & i love you artists & i love you art#i love you borrowing elements and being inspired and referencing something because you liked it.#are fandoms perfect? GOOD GOD no. is every Fan perfect? no. am i also sometimes annoyed or irrationally pissed off over a ship that#i think is stupid and is illogical. Yes! i’m only human! but i can still love and appreciate the whole CREATIVITY of it all. and the whole#Fun that people are having. i love you having fun. if i don’t like it or if anyone else doesn’t like it they can just Cope#instead of hateposting about it on main and indirectly bullying people who are most likely children. or lgbt. or both#anyways. please continue doing whatever you want. The world is your oyster and you only live on earth once#everyone else can fuck off
