Character Breakdown; Rodimus
Ayeee, it's Prime time!
How I feel about this character: I love him I love him I love him. He's such a depressed mood in G1, and I love the contrast of Hot Rod being his daredevil kid who doesn't take things seriously enough and then him becoming Rodimus Prime and he no longer smiles, he's depressed, his humor is now more sarcastic and dry, and he can't take the crushing weight of the primacy. He doesn't want to be in charge, but he has to, and all he wants is to live up to what Optimus built, but Optimus is such a towering figure compared to him that no matter what he does, he can't match the same feeling people get when they think about Optimus as a leader. He knows he can't be like Optimus, he can't inspire people like Optimus could, so he doesn't try. He gives up before he starts, which is why he doesn't try to be more poised and controlled like Magnus tells him to be. Optimus is so beloved that there's no point in trying to be great because he will never be as great as Optimus, and the meta of kids in the 80s hating Rodimus because he replaced Optimus is a real life example of the narrative around Rodimus Prime.
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Magnus. Magnus is my biggie. I don't mind seeing him shipped with Megs in MTMTE, but my favorite will always be G1 Rodimags. They are each other's steady presence. Both of them have doubts about their own capabilities, but the other is always there to reassure and help them along their way when they're struggling. Magnus often chastises Rodimus for his lack of tact in serious situations, but it isn't mean, he simply wants Rodimus to think more before he acts. Magnus himself is a disciplined figure who is a contrast to Rodimus's jump-into-action type thinking, and it's good for both of them to function as the other's opposite to get a well rounded thought process. Anyway this has been a Rodimags propaganda post.
My non-romantic OTP for this character: Arcee and Springer in G1 definitely, and Optimus as his big brother/father figure that he looks up to but struggles to live up to his legacy. His Hot Rod dynamics are silly and sweet, and his Rodimus Prime dynamics are more stunted because he's trying to be the leader they need.
My unpopular opinion about this character: He was really unlikable in the first half of MTMTE. While I found him funny and entertaining at times, he was very self centered and often insulted others or outright ignored their concerns. He gets better when Megatron shows up because they both are forced to accommodate the other's presence when neither of them want to be around each other. Rodimus becomes less impulsive in his decisions and actively apologizes for his previous mistreatment of Drift. Still can't get over just how mean he was to Red Alert in the written portion after volume 4, which I made a whole post about.
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: I wish that the G1 cartoon took more time to actually wrap up Rodimus's character development in a satisfying way. G1 often has good ideas for a plot narrative, but because the show is supposed to be nothing more than a glorified toy commercial, they often don't treat their ideas with the care and thought that would make them actually matter to the story in the long run. The end of Rodimus's ark is that he just sucks it up and eventually he gladly hands the Matrix back to Optimus, and instead of his pre established depression and self doubt mattering more to his character in later episodes, it gets brushed off for the sake of newer characters being introduced. I did like the Hate Plague episodes, but how it ended really overshadowed all that Rodimus was stacking up to be. His development is rendered null and void by Optimus returning and taking over again. It's like nothing ever happened for Rodimus. He's back to being Hot Rod, and we don't see much of a change in how he behaves due to his experiences. Aside from that, more continuities should incorporate that idea into their versions of Rodimus. It would be great if we could see his ark done well and explore what it means to take on a position when your predecessor is so highly regarded that it's impossible to live up to his image.

Did you used to have any other favorite shows before Paw Patrol and before Marshall became your number 1 favorite animated character, did you used to have any other favorite characters from any other TV show or movie?
I can certainly name a few favorite TV shows of mine from over the years. Some of these are pretty old nowadays, but I believe they can still be found on streaming services and whatnot.
One that comes to mind right away is "Looney Tunes". The originals, not the newer stuff like "The Looney Tunes Show" or the modern "Looney Tunes Cartoons". These were made back in the 30's, 40's and 50's, and though they released in theaters first, it might as well be considered a TV show nowadays.
In any case, I've been a huge fan of these shorts for as long as I can remember. In fact, I still watch them quite often to this day! Most of them are classics, with a wide variety of wonderful characters, memorable plots, delightful cartoon slapstick and violence, among other things. I don't think I'll ever outgrow them... heck, even my own parents still watch them (we often watch them together, actually).
Here's another I used to watch a ton a long time ago. It's an anime from 2001 called "Digimon Tamers". I practically fell in love with this one as a kid, and I remembered even trying to record every single episode to make sure I'd always have it. One reason behind this is... well, someone I'll talk about later on in this post. Beyond that, I just found the overall story really interesting, especially when compared to the previous two ("Adventure" and "Adventure 02"). It had memorable characters, too. It was just really good all around!
I'll admit, I'm not much for superhero stuff, but Justice League, and its sequel, Justice League: Unlimited, were both so entertaining. I haven't seen the show in numerous years, yet I still think about most of its episodes from time to time. They were just so memorable, thanks to smart and mature writing, numerous moments that still surprise me to this very day, etc. However, I'm not sure I can recommend it to too many of my followers here, since some of you might not like how serious it can get. Here's a good example, if anyone's curious to see what I'm talking about. If you're not bothered by this kind of stuff and/or can look past it, the whole thing's a great watch!
One last one for now, and it's finally something that's not too old! While I haven't seen every season of Regular Show, I thought the first two seasons were simply brilliant. Anyone who's seen this one no doubt remembers "send it to the moon", "summertime lovin', lovin in the summertime", "my mom", among so many other memorable lines and such. I enjoyed it so much, it's one of the few cartoons I tracked down on Blu-Ray (the first two seasons, anyway). It's crazy in all the best ways. Hm, hm, hm!
Now, as for favorite characters...
I'll admit, I've had so many over the years. In fact, at one point, I considered it somewhat of a hobby to keep track of them all and even list them on some of my social media sites (that was some time ago, on accounts unrelated to this one, and said lists no longer exist now). I won't go into all of them, but I can list quite a few!
RJ the raccoon, from Dreamworks' "Over the Hedge". He's just a fun, smooth-talking character who's quite entertaining to watch. He was really high up my list for the longest time, and while that's not so true anymore, I'm still quite the fan of him (and the movie, itself).
Impmon, from the aforementioned "Digimon Tamers". Anyone who's into Digimon certainly knows about him, and how he easily became the show's most complex character. I don't want to spoil everything, since his journey is legit great, but Impmon starts out as someone who's not so friendly, but he slowly warms up to the good guys little-by-little... until something happens that leaves him completely and utterly humiliated. With his ego smashed and desperate for power, he makes a deal with one of the villains, who grants him exactly what he wants, under the condition he goes after the heroes. Despite doing some terrible stuff, he's spared, and he ends up realizing all the horrible mistakes he's made and then tries to do his best to make up for all the harm he's caused. To be honest, my description here really doesn't do him justice, so it's really something you need to check out yourself. Most fans will happily admit it's easily a big highlight of the whole Digimon franchise.
He's arguably one of the best Digimon characters, period. His journey is memorable, and I really found myself rooting for the character and hoping he'd turn out okay in the end. Honestly, he still remains one of my biggest favorites to this day.
Bolt, from Disney's "Bolt". This isn't one of their better movies, but I still think Bolt, himself is pretty darn great... and cute, too. Much like Impmon, I just really liked his journey, from a dog who believed the TV show he starred in was real, to coming to terms with just who and what he really is. Again, I don't wish to spoil it for those who haven't seen it, but it's pretty good... and quite touching, if you ask me. Special shout out to the part when Bolt just takes in life by letting the rain drop on his face for the first time... it's easily a favorite moment of mine, and cemented just how much I came to love the character.
If you haven't seen Bolt, I certainly recommend it! And Bolt, himself... he's a pretty cool pup. A good boy, for sure.
Panchito Pistoles, a Disney character who first appeared in the 1944 animated movie "The Three Caballeros". No doubt some of you might recognize him more from the 2018 "Legend of the Three Caballeros".
There's actually not a whole lot I can say about him, in terms of any sort of character development and whatnot. Truth is, along with his excellent design, I just flat out love this wacky character. He's always so full of energy, and as such, he's just so crazy entertaining. I won't say he's one of the best Disney characters or anything, but he's someone that always gives me a big smile when he shows up.
Hokey Wolf, a character from some really old Hanna-Barbera cartoons. (He's the one on the right, btw.)
I'll admit, most folks probably haven't heard of this character. You won't see him much nowadays, and I think he's only been in the background of a few Jellystone! episodes. Despite that, he's, in my opinion, a rather memorable character, at least in the older cartoons that introduced him. Much like RJ, he's another smooth talker, which in hindsight, seems to be a trait that I like. It just makes characters like him a lot of fun to watch, especially if they can pull off whatever they'd planned. Beyond that, I also really like his design. Admittedly, I took an interest in wolves because of him, and I even thought about getting into making my own animations due to Hokey, too. The character became a bit special to me, I suppose you could say.
Going back to Looney Tunes, many of its characters became favorites of mine, too. The one on the left, Charlie Dog, is the star of some of my favorite shorts, including the one in which he goes on about how great of a dog he is because he's [apparently] numerous breeds in one (50% pointer, 50% boxer, 50% sitter... Irish sitter, 50% watch dog, 50% spits, 50% Doberman Pincher, but he's "mostly" all Labrador Retriever). He's always looking for a master, and though he can be a little too pushy, his attempts at trying to look appealing as "man's best friend" never cease to amuse me.
And then there's Bugs Bunny, who is probably the very first character I ever became a huge fan of. I just love this wascally wabbit, due to his humor, personality, characteristics, design, charm... everything! His cartoons never fail to get a good laugh out of me. Although the stuff he appears in nowadays isn't as good as those classic shorts from way back then, I still say he's easily one of the greatest cartoon characters to ever exist, period. Dude's a legend, peroid.
And I better stop here, before this post gets any longer. lol

Thanks for tagging me (ages ago I'm sorry I suck) @puppy-phum
-
1. why did you choose your url?
I am so boring I almost want to apologise for it. My url is just my nickname and the year I was born (yes, I am old).
2. any sideblogs? if you have them name them and why you have them.
I don't really use my sideblogs much. I've got one that I haven't used for years that I used to post some of my photography on @hal-photography. I've got one for an old UK convention that folded during the pandemic but that I used to do the marketing for @writerconuk and I've got a whump blog that I use to reblog my favourite whumpy gifs so that they're easy to find. Not sharing that one because I do not wish to be Perceived.
3. how long have you been on tumblr?
My original blog was set up in 2010. I had to nuke it after some unpleasantness in the Supernatural fandom (isn't it always SPN) and I've had this current once since 2011 I think
4. do you have a queue tag?
Nah, I don't queue things as a general rule. I do a bunch of reblogging first thing in the morning while I'm scrolling in bed and that's more or less it
5. why did you start your blog in the first place?
I was looking for a new home after Livejournal finally properly died and most fandom folk were here at that time
6. why did you choose your icon/pfp?
It's a piece of DMBJ art that my housemate comissioned as a Christmas present a couple of years ago. I love it, and it was made specifically for me, so I made it my header and my icon
7. why did you choose your header?
Same as above
8. what’s your post with the most notes?
This RDJ/Paul Bettany exchange I ripped from Twitter. I have no idea why it ended up with 20k notes
9. how many mutuals do you have?
I honestly have no idea. Lots.
10. how many followers do you have?
Argh now I'm going to have to go and look. 2421. Wow.
11. how many people do you follow?
Wow this thing is really exposing me. 1908. I generally follow back so long as I can see that the person is an active fandom blog where we have at least one fandom in common.
12. have you ever made a shitpost?
I mostly shitpost in the tags
13. how often do you use tumblr each day?
Generally for an hour in the morning before I get up and then however long it takes me to liveblog my next drama episode in the evening
14. did you have a fight/argument with another blog once?
No, I don't think so. Not that I can remember anyway. I generally try and avoid conflict and if someone is annoying me I just block them and/or vent about it in a safe space with friends I trust.
15. how do you feel about ‘you need to reblog this’ posts
Makes me less inclined to reblog them tbh. Don't tell me what to do in my own house.
16. do you like tag games?
I am so bad at remembering to do them when I get tagged (see above about only really being on tumblr for an hour a day) but I do appreciate it every time someone thinks of me
17. do you like ask games?
Yeah, same as above. I love them but I am crap at remembering to answer the asks. I'm very sorry.
18. which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?
I'm not sure I could name anyone who is tumblr famous beyond the actual celebrities who hang out here (like Lynda Carter)
19. do you have a crush on a mutual?
I have mutuals I admire and wish I was brave enough to talk to more but I wouldn't really call them crushes. As an aroace I don't really do crushes.
20. tags?
I'm going to tag a few of my newer mutuals so I can get to know them a bit better. Absolutely no pressure though @prolestari @queenbeyondthejudge @fangirl-bookaholic @huzzzah @life-is-all-about-perspective @loving-that-officey-feel @greenyball @hwasfeatherduster

Propaganda and further pictures under the cut
Cheer Factory: Goo & Bot

Cheer Factory:

you have NO IDEA how much ‘found family’ energy these two give off (unless yyou do . by coincidence.uhm) like?? they find out theyre on the pink team and BOTH bot and goo shout “YEAHHH,, PINK TEAM !!” in unison . and then they immediately start getting along throughout the show . they are siblings to me they are the duo ever theyre like so silly theyre like two little kids in a trench coat/pos
okay so let me talk about bot first of all bot is . theyre heavily implied to be trans actually NO not heavily implied it’s practically CANON because bot is supposed to be the robot replica of a dead person named bow but later on they say they “aren’t bow” and that they wanna be a different person !!!! in the newer episodes literally when they were drawing what they wanna look like they put they/them on the paper and it was shown ON SCREEN !!!!!/pos/silly and in the new episode they GOT their new look and when they noticed their eyelashes were gone and all the other cool details they got they said “it’s so… me !! :D” ALSO: this small speech they gave
“yknow, lately ive been worried,, if i went by a different name, or maybe even ,, looked a little different.. i wouldnt be me anymore., but you helped me realize that,, no matter what you put out there.. youre still you” UWAHHHHHH/POS okay now goo second of all goo is like the silliest little goofball ive seen on a web series . he dances with PINECONES and makes weird analogies and made a 3 hour film for bot after they came out he did NOT deserve to be voted out for that i really hope they reunite because they didnt get to talk much before goo’s elimination and not ONLY that but literally goo got eliminated BEFORE he got to see bot’s new look he doesn’t even know that their name is bot he still thinks its tbd as far as i know (also because the only pictures of them together so far are literally before bot got their new look so. im gonna have to separate them when i submit photos💔💔) and the interaction right before his elimination was like kinda awkward unfortunately but it made me sob/hj
"yeah,, i liked it !! but.. it was,,. a lot :[ listen goo,, i-i dont need this new identity to be such a big grand spectacle , i just want you to treat me like. llike me . with all the uncertainty lately, it helps everything feel just a bit more,, normal , yknow .?" “oh,, ohfor sure ,! i get it !! it’s like,, you just wanted a slice of cake, and i went and gave you the whole bakery ,:D !!” “hehe, yyup, nailed it !! ,:)” ↑↑↑ UWAHHHHHHH😭/LH/POS and third of all their alliance name they are literally called THE CHEER FACTORY because they wanna CHEER PEOPLE UP and they did !!!!! they cheered up clover and the floor ithink yes the floor is a character ssshshshshhsshh and goo literally lost one of the challengesbecause he laughed at the floor’s joke AND HE DID NOT CARE he was just glad he got to cheer somebody up !!!!! “another satisfied customer at the,, CHEER FACTORY !!! :D” LITERALLY HE WAS SO HAPPY and also when they were separated into two seperate teams goo is IMMEDIATELY sad when he notices bot isnt with him “sigh… i guess the cheer factory has become the.., cheer llc. :[“ I FELT SO BAD FOR THE BOTH OF THEM also can you tell whos my favorite/hj/lh anyways theyre silly theyre blorbos theyre the duo ever and thats why they should be in this competition (psssssst pstpst hhey im not gonna force you or anything btw but watch this video that interviews goo after he got eliminated from the show please/nf/ ineed to provide more evidence/hj/lh) || https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eb4iAbI2f3s
goo literally made a video that was like 3 hours.long which was dedicated to bot's new identity after they said they were a robot and weren't "bow" and also they both have their own silly little alliance in the show called "The Cheer Factory" ❗❗❗ cmon theyre like. theyre literally like two little kids in a trenchcoat/silly theyrefound family siblings to me
Naruto & Umino:
everyone in the village hated naruto since the day he was born bc of the demon that lives in his insides somewhere (this sounds crazy if you haven't seen the show but trust me here). iruka was his teacher at school. when everyone was graduating, naruto failed and some side character told him that if he stole a secret scroll he'd pass (since he failed). they were using him tho, and were planning on killing him (i think). and then iruka goes after him and finds him with the scroll before the other person did, and was the first person to actively defend naruto, and was the first person to believe him and see him as the person he was (he's like 12 here btw). and then, iruka always acts as a father figure to naruto, and at the very end of the series, when naruto gets married, he asks iruka to be his father at his wedding. i cried like a little bitch and i swear to god i just lvoe them so much. i doubt anyone will submit them butAAAAAA. ALSO IRUKA PASSED HIM IN THE END AND GAVE HIM HIS OWN FUCKING HEADBAND!!! SOBS AND CRIES AND SCREAMS
iruka was the first person to ever believe in naruto. it’s mentioned throughout the story how much of an impact iruka had on naruto just by believing in him, and it’s super sweet. the real kicker is that at the end of the show, naruto asks iruka to play the role of his father at his wedding, and i will never not cry about it!! literally look at them!!! never shutting up about this!!

these were some of the tags on the post where john was commenting on if facing demons was because he being self-destructive or if he was being enraged. i say both, and very much do agree with the tags, but i'm putting what i have to say on it under the cut because it's going to be a lot. trigger warnings for abuse, mentions of death/animal deaths, depression, etc. also a bit of rambling. this also somehow turned into psychoanalyzing. oopsie.
naturally, john and i have vastly different experiences regarding life, but i think there's a connect that helps me see things through his lens a lot more clearly, especially when it comes to the psychological.
just a bit of recap on my life i guess, but i'll just say "i got abused" and we'll move on from there. i can connect, in sum.
while john has newcastle and the deaths of friends under his belt, the abuse of his father, the blame of the death of his mother ( though i can't remember if he knew about his twin or not, but i don't think he did ), the magic, the killing animals, the killing of that one man all weighing on his shoulders and then much, much more, the trauma left behind was something i could easily connect with because of the depression, the self-destruction, the instances where even he himself is debating on suicide and alludes to it consistently, while also doing things to save his own ass but also that could very easily kill him. it's conflicting.
for me, i was angry and self-destructive because i felt like the world hated me. i'm sure if there was some form of power that i thought could help make me feel more powerful and i had less of an obligation to my siblings of whom faced the same treatment, i would have taken it and ran with it, too.
but there are things you start to do. you learn to lie to keep yourself out of trouble, give the people hurting you the truths they want to hear and it's something you learn to do in every day life. you'd say something that fed into what they wanted to be the truth and get the same abuse anyway, except the arguments wouldn't be as long and you'd get out of the situation faster. it's a bit of a morbid way to look at it, but while people tell you to "fight back", it's not that easy. i think it's why i connect to john so much- he didn't necessarily fight back against his dad from what we could tell until he eventually did the spell to keep his dad sick. and people will constantly say "i'd just fight back", or "i wouldn't have let that happen to me when i was a kid" and that ends up enforced in some medias that people write.
john does a lot of running and ducking his head and getting other people wrapped up in his shit. it's a path of destruction because he doesn't realize, at first, that it's going to be as big of a shit show as he thinks. for example, with ritchie, when ritchie says "oh i can handle it no worries john it's my expertise" etc. and john trusts it- he needs something done, and someone's willing to do it. but then ritchie ends up another person hurt or dead in what he thinks is his own fault.
you get told the same thing so many times throughout your life that you eventually start to believe it. sometimes, things just fuck up. you get called killer all your life, it only takes so long before you think that, well, maybe you're the curse. maybe you're all the bad shit that everyone says you are.
i do want to note that john does have dissociative episodes, especially in the newer run of hellblazer and he straight up says that. however, as someone who's taken so many psychology classes that i probably could have gotten a degree in it had my university provided the program, that doesn't necessarily mean a disorder, but it does usually fall under ptsd, depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorders, borderline personality disorders, schizophrenia, and other disorders. most disorders fall under these categories, though.
i have c-ptsd, depression, anxiety, and probably a lot of other mental disorders not explored because of past traumas that i could probably connect to his self destructive nature, but john has also probably only seen the therapists in ravenscar that proceeded to give him electro shock therapy while everyone else who had the nerve decided to beat the fuck out of him because they thought he killed astra. so more trauma tacked on to john's little plethora of already traumatic memories.
to be technical, there is a difference between c-ptsd and ptsd. with c-ptsd, the symptoms tend to begin six months or more after the initial traumatic event. *cracks knuckles* there is also a difference in symptoms, though they aren't necessarily exclusive to one or the other. c-ptsd tends to also be a result of ongoing, repeated emotional traumas, and on top of that, holds the trauma of ptsd, and then more. to clarify, ptsd usually has symptoms of dissociative episodes, flashbacks, dreams and nightmares related to trauma, commonly taking part in self-destructive behaviors, etc. to tack onto c-ptsd's symptoms, there is the constant feeling of guilt, constant hate towards yourself, consistently believing the world is bad in general, etc. i also want to focus on the fact that c-ptsd usually stems from childhood abuse, which is why i personally think john has c-ptsd, and then it just got worse from there. but you can have both! that's possible. so. i mean. well. call it like it is, john's probably got both.
anyways, moving on! borderline personality disorder, or bpd, kind of changes somewhat person to person, but overall, i think that the symptoms can fit john, in some cases. i pulled up a list just to be a little more clear and concise, but there is "an intense fear of abandonment, even going to extreme measures to avoid real or imagined separation or rejection" and i would really like to point out that, most of the time, john likes to say things like "i'm not good for you" or "i walk this path alone" or. you know, things along that line. for the most part, he pushes people away before they can get close. "a pattern of unstable intense relationships" and i would like to use chas as an example, which i know people would hate, but there are quite a few moments throughout hellblazer where chas will literally tell john that he hates him or shove his face in a toilet and tell him that's where he belongs.... and john doesn't walk away, he just lets chas walk away and come back because. well. why not? he thinks he deserves it half the time. but also, most of john's relationships aren't exactly stable. half the time, his niece and sister don't want to see him, the other half are his relationships that end fairly quickly, and others are just. john being john. "...seeing yourself as bad or as if you don't exist at all." "impulsive and risky behavior, such as gambling, reckless driving, unsafe sex, spending sprees, binge eating or drug abuse, or sabotaging success" the guy smokes after having of had lung cancer. what more do you want for an example. he also consistently does magic even though it's fucked over his life multiple times. again and again and again and he knows that it's fucking him over. unsafe sex can also be debated- in the newer version of hellblazer, he has an illegitimate son named noah that he didn't know existed, for example. and that's where i'll leave that. though in some cases, it can be argued as symptoms of ptsd, though it's possible he could have bpd.
this is going to be the last one, and i am not a doctor or anything but i think that it's possible he could have schizophrenia, or simply hallucinations as a result of any of the other disorders on here, which is sometimes possible but not exactly always common. based on john being an unreliable narrator, there is the suggestion that the ghosts that plague john constantly are not actually there, and that they might just be hallucinations. there are other symptoms of schizophrenia, but i've mostly covered them above. visual hallucinations also include people who are typically loved ones and friends who are no longer alive, i would like to add, but again, they could actually be ghosts, though it's somewhat possible that they're not. in the case that the ghosts are not real....
ANYWAYS. feel free to add more. i did it quick, but. there is this....
#john constantine#blabbing#is it just me or when i type super long posts tumblr decides to be a huge ass#it's always like “hm. well u cant type now for a good second. fuck u”#like what the hell am i supposed to do when i am on a roll and you stop me.#ANYWAYS

If there was a new Sailor Moon reboot anime someday I'd want it to respect the core values and spirit of the original manga and anime, but do something different. I don't think it is necesarry to re-tell the Dark Kingdom arc all over again, at least not in the same way, let alone methodically follow that up with the Black Moon, Infinity, Dream or Stars arcs.
I think that'd be refreshing for older fans (who currently are the primary target demographic for the brand) and for newer fans (who I actually think should be at least equally the target demographic at some point in the future) they won't know that we are deviating from what we've seen before anyway.
There are no end of ways you can change things up of course, but for the sake of argument lets say Sailor Moon is a seasonal anime, meaning it realistically has 12-13 episodes to tell its arc in.
There are no end of anime or western cartoons that can tell compelling arcs in that amount of time, but the limited episode count almost locks you into replicating Crystal and the manga if you are married to the DK arc or married to how the DK arc unfolded. Namely, introducing the Senshi one by one, building towards the drama with their pat lives etc. So just immediately off the bat you've eaten up minimum 6-7 episodes of your season on set up as each episode is going to be setting up one of the Senshi, Tuxedo Mask, etc. I'm a Crystal defender/apologist, but I see no point doing that again if we are doing a new reboot.
Instead, here is a radical idea. Why not start the series off with the Inner Senshi already established as a team and Usagi is the audience avatar who is being introduced to them, their HQ and their mission when she is recruited to the Sailor Team. Not only will that work for people unfamiliar with Sailor Moon, but for us old geezers who've seen every version out there (and read many more through fanfiction ;) it sort of speeds things up. We can get to the character dynamics and interpersonal relationships with our girls off the bat. In addition, it provides a more organic reason as to why Usagi is less combat savvy compared to the other girls, the latter have just been doing this for longer whilst Usagi is a newbie.
Arranging things this way is also how a lot of Super Sentai (one of Takeuchi's primary sources of inspiration for Sailor Moon) seasons kick off too, they build the team within the first episode or two as the team is the heart of the story.
Here is another radical idea. What if the Dark Kingdom and the reincarnation angle isn't even the plot of the first arc? What if we're dealing with some new villains or the Death Busters even? The Death Buster's base of operations was a school. In a sense, they are even more natural villains for a team of superhero school girls to go up against out of the gate. You could draw out the huge reveals of everyone's past lives and so on across the whole series rather than make it the first arc. Like imagine if Queen Beryl and Metalia were not simply the final villains of the first/only arc, but the Final Big Bad of the entire series?
That's not even getting into all the villains beyond the mainline manga that you could make use of, modernising them or adapting them into an anime for the first time. Ail, An, Fiore, Snow Kaguya, Queen Badine, Shaman Apsu and the Opposito Senshi, Past Wiseman, Death Vulcan, Dark Nibiru, Coatl, Dracul, Vampir, Lilith, etc.
I'm just saying this franchise is replete with rich concepts, characters and ideas. Creatively there is A LOT that can be done with it for old fans and new. It'd be a shame if we never got more and an even bigger shame if what we got was what we have seen before.

《我是歌手》 Season 1——Thoughts and Feelings
I finally finished rewatching 《我是歌手》 season 1. It only took me 4 months...
Anyways. I've put together some thoughts I have on this season (with some spoilers about eliminations and whatnot).
Here's a link to the YouTube playlist of every performance from this season (I'm pretty sure I got them all). It's 111 videos. For some reason, the 芒果TV account had like none of 羽泉's performances posted (maybe a copyright thing?), and they were missing a few other performances, so sorry if the quality on a few of the videos isn't the best. I went with the best versions I could find on YouTube.
Here's where I watched this season. It was actually kinda difficult to find a place to watch this season for free; a lot of the other seasons were on YouTube for free when I first watched them (though some have been removed since then). Thankfully I found this site, and the quality is really good. There's some funky sound editing moments, though it's unclear if the original recording is bad or if it's the video on this site. Either way, it's the best quality version I've found to date.
Also, advanced apologies to any 沙宝亮 fans out there.
The singers in this season all seemed to be more established and well-known. I mean, 齐秦 alone is wildly famous, and then there’s 羽泉 and 黄贯中 (from Beyond). That’s not a bad thing, since all of them were really talented. However, I personally think the show is at its best when there are a few newer or lesser-known singers thrown into the mix. It makes the competition even more unpredictable, and a lot of these singers bring some pretty unique performances to the stage. I think the only reason I have this preference and this stands out to me is because I watched all the other seasons before season 1, so my expectations of the show had already been set based on what they’d done in later seasons. So I’m not judging season one too much for this, and I understand production would want to do what they could to ensure a decent viewership.
One of the things they did this season that never shows up again in other seasons is have one episode where everyone spins a wheel and picks their next song that way. I thought it was an interesting one-off episode idea, and it gave us a lot of great performances. It pushed some of the singers kinda far outside of their comfort zones, and I always like to watch when singers pick challenging songs. A really great episode came out of this idea. As much as I love the singers getting creative freedom, sometimes it’s fun to watch them struggle a bit. Idk, maybe that’s mean of me to say lol
There was also one episode where each singer picked one of 齐秦’s songs to perform, and it was sort of like a tribute episode since he had to leave the season early? And at the end 齐秦 performed his return song, which he never got to do when he left. I liked this episode since I’m not super familiar with 齐秦 (I’m more familiar with his sister, the absolute goddess 齐豫), so I got to hear more of his songs. As much as I liked it, I don’t know if it’d work every single season.
胡海泉 was also a really good host. I found all of his mistakes really relatable because I, too, cannot fucking speak.
In terms of the singers, the ones who stood out the most to me were 林志炫, 黄绮珊, 尚雯婕, and 杨宗纬. I already knew about 林志炫 and 黄绮珊 before starting this season, so I knew what to expect from them. Every performance from 林志炫 was perfect (what else would you expect from the One Take King?), but my favorite performance of his (and actually of the whole season) was 《没离开过》. 黄绮珊 was also really great to watch. Even though I personally didn’t like a couple of the songs she chose, she was consistently killing every performance, even when she was sick. 尚雯婕 was pretty unpredictable in terms of genre, but I liked a lot of her performances. My favorite from her was 《Dog Days Are Over》, and I think it’s a shame she didn’t get to perform that before she got eliminated. She was really creative with her picks, and I really respected the risks she took even if I didn’t fully enjoy it sometimes. (Also, she was definitely this season’s fashionista. Those shoes, man) 杨宗纬 was a really unexpected favorite, since he wasn’t around very long before the resurrection round. But he really chose some good songs and put his everything into the resurrection round, and kinda won me over at the last minute.
The rest of the singers were good, but I wouldn’t go so far as to say I really loved or hated them. With one exception, that is.
沙宝亮 is a very talented singer, and I think he put on some very good performances. However. I personally could not stand the man. You know how sometimes you just see a person, and immediately think, “I do not like this person”? No good reason for it, there’s just something that you personally aren’t a fan of? Yeah, that was me with 沙宝亮. Every time he was onstage, I felt uninterested. Each time he spoke on camera, I did not care. This man did nothing particular to earn this from me, yet here we are. I was glad when we didn’t win the resurrection round, only for him to come back and torment me in the final episode. Despicable. Since I just spent this whole paragraph trashing him, let me be kind and say his performance of 《Someone Like You》 was quite good.
Now that I’ve discussed all the singers, let’s give out some “awards”.
My favorite performance: 林志炫《没离开过》
Best Fashion Moments™: 尚雯婕’s ensemble in episode 7 (非常的French), 沙宝亮 in episode 9 (it was just ugly, sry), 周晓鸥 in episode 10 (that snakeskin vest? thing? was a Choice), 黄贯中 in the resurrection round (zero effort put in to covering that tattoo and it’s pretty funny imo)
Best hosting moments from 胡海泉: episode 1 mixup between 字zi/zhi, episode 3’s ze样一首歌, doing tongue twisters as prep in episode 4, this quote from episode 5 “看完明姐的表演,我宣布辣妈时代正式到来”, and episode 10 when the subtitlers really committed to spelling out every mistake he made
Most noteworthy episode: episode 5 (lots of great performances, the aforementioned 辣妈时代 comment, the lights in the confessional scene needed to be adjusted bc 周晓鸥’s bald head was too shiny, the guitarist Tommy was not wearing glasses/sunglasses which dealt me a deep psychic blow. 我是歌手 superfans will understand)
So overall, I did enjoy this season. I liked a lot of performances, and hated very few. Even though it was pretty good across the board, I don’t think it has a lot of rewatch value for me. There are certain seasons I know I’m excited to see again (like seasons two and three 👀), and I don’t think this would be one of those. Instead I’m probably going to just return to a few standout performances and rewatch those (I’ve already watched 《没离开过》 an embarrassing number of times).
#我是歌手#我是歌手第一季#chinese langblr#mandarin langblr#mandarin chinese#mine#m music#sorry to 沙宝亮. you did nothing to deserve my dislike.

hi! sorry if you've answered this before but i'm just getting into wec (yes, bc of mick lmao) and i was wondering if the ranking of drivers within teams has any significance? like if driver 1 is more of a team captain
Hi Anon! Thanks for the question, I don't think I've ever answered this before! First of I'm very glad you're getting into WEC, it's an amazing series.
So as for the ranking, I'm assuming you're referring to the order drivers are in on the entry list? Generally, that's not really anything of any significance. Driver 1 on the entry list won't be assigned the leader of the team or anything.
And either way there's no real leader within the team anyway especially not in the Hypercar category. However, maybe some drivers with more experience can act as a reference for drivers newer to Sportscar Racing.
For example Mick, is obviously a rookie. So he will likely receive some guidance from his very experienced teammates. But at the same time, Mick's insight will be valued too. It's all about making your team and car the quickest and it should never be an internal fight between who is the best within the car cuz ultimately you're doing it together.
Obviously some drivers will want to qualify (as only one of the three qualifies) or some drivers desperately either want to start or finish the race. And there might be some internal battling about that, and they might want their own ego moment. But usually as drivers mature too, they care less about it. Laurens Vanthoor (another Hypercar driver) has a podcast with his younger brother, Dries Vanthoor (also a Hypercar driver). And in one of the episodes he explained it quite well. How a few years ago he really wanted to finish the race or anything like that but now he's not as preoccupied with it anymore.
On a side note however, unfortunately weight is sometimes still an issue in WEC so teams might assign their lightest drivers to do qualifying instead if there is a significant difference there.
As for the LMGT3 class as it's a Pro/Am line up. And only one of the drivers is not classified as Silver (young driver at the start of their career) or Bronze (Amateur). Usually the actual professional driver will be some sort of unofficial team leader. Helping their less experienced teammates. Though they won't be in the car for qualifying as LMGT3 requires the amateur to qualify.
Hope this sort of helps but if there's any more questions feel free to ask!

Where's All This Lore From, Anyway?
Do I kin Fumi? Maybe.
I've blogged about a fair bit of Assault Lily lore by now, and plan to blog about more, and it wouldn't hurt to explain where all this information actually comes from.
For some settings this would be straightforward, but for AL it isn't. You'll see why in a moment.
The Stories
The most obvious sources of Assault Lily lore are the stories themselves.
That is to say:
The anime, Assault Lily Bouquet (Fruits is incredibly silly and should probably be considered non-canon. Except for the episode where Riri and Yuyu hold a wedding ceremony. That one is canon.)
The gacha game, Assault Lily Last Bullet, which contains a bunch of visual novel-style stories. These stories are direct sequels to Assault Lily Bouquet.
Happy birthday, Kazuha.
The stage plays. As of this writing, there are 11 plays, along with several more of questionable canonicity (theatrical games of Werewolf that feature AL characters and such.)
The manga. There are two of these: League of Gardens -full bloom- is an adaptation of the League of Gardens stage play, and Secret Garden is a series of fluffy one-shots, some of which are explicitly non-canon.
The novels. There are four of these so far.
Now, the fun part is that these stories quite often contradict each other. Team Hitotsuyanagi, for example, comes into being in a different way in every story that shows it happening: you can see this for yourself just by watching Assault Lily Bouquet and then reading the translated portion of the Full Bloom manga. (Full Bloom has some major differences from the stage play it's based on, too.)
Contradictory events aside, the details of the setting sometimes change as well. For example, in the oldest stories Lilies couldn't take part in the Neunwelt Tactic unless they had awakened their Rare Skill, but this is no longer true.
Fans used to deal with this by interpreting each of the various stories as taking place in their own parallel universe, but then the stories started more directly referencing each other, making this difficult to do. It's a thorny and unresolved problem to this day, not helped by the lack of official statements on the matter.
Other Books
There are some Assault Lily books written in the style of guides, rather than stories.
The oldest of them, Assault Lily Setting Materials, was only ever published in print and I don't have access to it. It was reprinted recently but sold out within hours before I could order it.
There were a series of articles about AL posted on the website Dengeki Hobby Web in 2020-2021. Some of these were later also printed as a book, Mashima Moyu's Arsenal Workshop.
Another book, Assault Lily Setting Materials: Special Feature on Radgrid, was published digitally. This book contains a few pages about every member of Team Hitotsuyanagi and is our main source of information on their families.
There are a few others, but these are the most important.
The Doll Pamphlets
"Kaede is a well-rounded and rational person whose only shortcoming is her obsession with cute girls." — Kaede's doll pamphlet
Most of the dolls come with info sheets. Although only one page long, front and back, these are absolutely packed with lore.
There's a little problem: in what is kind of an ongoing theme for Assault Lily, a lot of the info on them wildly contradicts everything written and shown elsewhere.
Tazusa's pamphlet, for example, claims that she was born in Tokyo (newer sources say she was born in Shizuoka,) that her mother is dead (newer sources say her mother's identity and whereabouts are unknown,) that Takamatsu Shiera negotiated with GEHENA to have her released (newer sources say Legion Rossweisse broke her out of a GEHENA lab,) and strongly implies that she has a crush on Yuyu (there are close to zero signs of this being the case anywhere else.)
The Special Feature on Radgrid repeats a lot of the character info found here, and I think that book probably exists in order to clean the lore up and make it cohere to the newer stories. Some CHARM and miscellaneous setting information is still only found in the doll pamphlets though, as well as much of what we know about some characters who aren't part of Team Hitotsuyanagi.
Lily's Time
The Assault Lily YouTube channel hosts occasional "Lily's Time" streams every month or two on average. The main host is Akao Hikaru, Riri's voice actress, along with various guests. Obanazawa Kenei, the original creator of Assault Lily, is often a guest. Each stream has a topic, sometimes one or two of the characters, sometimes one of the Gardens, and sometimes entirely different subjects like the IRL Assault Lily live concerts.
These streams have a tendency to just repeat info that's already been mentioned elsewhere, but they've told us new stuff, like that only Lilies are capable of seeing magie, from time to time. They've also "canonized" some dubious info from the doll pamphlets.
Fumi's Twitter Account
Last but definitely not least, we come to the most unique source of Assault Lily lore: Futagawa Fumi's Twitter account. (Sorry Elon, I refuse to call the website "X".)
Fumi has been tweeting since February 2013, seven months before the first-ever Assault Lily product (the original 1/12 scale Yuyu doll) was released. She's made nearly 16,000 tweets over the course of the decade since. Many of those tweets are to advertise AL goods and things like events in the gacha game, but on certain days, Fumi will log on around midnight Japan time and invite her followers to tweet questions about Assault Lily with a hashtag that translates to "Please tell me, Fumi-chan!"
She'll then answer those questions as she sees fit. Occasionally, she also launches into explanations of AL lore on her own initiative, such as when she told us about the top seven legions at Herensuge Girls' Academy.
An early tweet by Fumi. The Google translation is reasonably close to the mark.
And there you have it. Compared to a lot of settings, Assault Lily's lore is kind of a mess, but personally, I find it fun to piece together.
I don't cite sources for info I write about because it would make my posts twice as long and twice as difficult to write, but you can find most of the same stuff on the Assault Lily Wiki, which does have citations.
If you're curious about the provenance of anything specific, feel free to send me an ask about it.

Have a little drabble featuring the boys :^)
The keys are dumped into the tray on the console by the door. His coats shrugged off and onto the hook on the wall, his shoes kicked off and lazily nudged to a spot in the corner before Diesel hurries over to greet him.
Maddox scratches his dog's head lovingly before walking into the mostly darkened penthouse, ready to simply head off to bed once he checked on the girls.
The sound of an all too familiar cartoon and the bright light coming from the large TV in the living room were enough to let him know he wasn't sneaking by easily; God knows he was going to try though. He just had to have silent footsteps, keep Diesel from reacting too much--
"So," Max drawled out, never turning from his spot on the couch. "How did the date go?"
Damnit.
Maddox sighed, rubbing the back of his neck as he begrudgingly moved for the couch himself. He pushed his best friends scrawny legs off so he could sit down next to him, arms draping over the back of the couch as he sank into the cushions.
"It went alright, I guess," he finally said, red eyes staying on the screen. Funny Bunny was currently setting up yet another scheme to ruin the day of Ruff Ruff McDogg. He was pretty sure this was a newer episode from the reboot. "Probably won't be going on a second." He shifted, finally glancing over at Max, currently with a thick blanket draped over his lap and dressed in his robe and pink bunny slippers. "Did the girls do okay tonight?"
Max waved his hand a bit, going to pick up his wine glass. "They were little angels, as always," he told him proudly. "Even went to bed without much fuss this time, though they did try to stay up to wait for you. They tuckered themselves out with their big night with Uncle Max and Auntie Kitty." So their sister did come over for the week after all. "She's in bed, too, by the way. Told her she needs to be well rested for the tournament."
"Ah. That's good."
Max pouted, letting out a sigh. "It's a shame though, I thought Christina from the office would be a good match for you," he told him. "What was wrong with her? Anything that concerns work?"
The raven haired man shook his head, reaching up to tug his hair out of its usual ponytail. "No, she's nice. It wasn't miserable or anything. There just...wasn't a spark, I guess."
There hadn't been with anyone his best friend had tried to set up with in the past few years. He'd given Maddox a solid year after Paige had abandoned him and the twins before he started setting them up, at least. But they weren't exactly Maddoxs cup of tea to have to do. He'd rather use his time away from work to focus on the girls.
Max scoffed gently, taking a long sip of his drink. "Did you even try to feel one?"
He rolled his eyes. "Max--"
"Max nothing!" The silver haired man insisted. He sat up a bit more, hair falling a bit more to one side to reveal the shine of his golden eye. "Maddsy boy, you self sabotage. Every single time you go out on a date, you never give it a proper chance. You've got some fear of commitment."
Maddox shook his head. "First off, it's not a fear," he told him, dryly. "I just have been burned really badly in the past and don't want to go through that shit again." He held up a hand. "And, secondly; it's better that I don't anyways. I don't wanna date someone, bring them into Dahlia and Dinah's lives because I think it's going well and then it blow up in both their faces and in mine. They shouldn't have to go through abandonment again; I'm not going to let them."
His best friend sighed, letting his legs fold back up on the couch as he sat the glass down. "I can't say that it's going to be concrete that it wouldn't happen again," he said, after a moment. "But, there's a very strong chance it wouldn't. You deserve to be happy, Maddsy; Cecelia wouldn't want to see you alone, either, and she'd want you to have someone that loved the girls just as much. You have to open up your heart, though."
He could argue back that Max hadn't ever done the same, but he knew their cases were far, far different. He wouldn't rub that kind of salt in the wound, either. "I just...I know you want what's best for me. But I don't think I'm ready yet, either. Maybe...maybe some day. But not yet."
Silence filled the space between them, the only noise coming from the television, and the raven haired man kept his head bowed, fidgeting with his hands.
"I'm sorry I've pushed it," Max finally said, his voice soft. "I'll try and cut back. But...you have to promise me you'll try when you're ready."
He held out his hand for the other to shake and they gave a firm one, before doing finger guns. "Fine. I promise."
(He didn't know that in just two years from that moment, almost to the date, he would lay his eyes on the man that would make him feel finally ready to open his heart once more.)

I think the problem stems from the 1991 film series. Which, don't get me wrong, is amazing and a REALLY good adaptation of the Addams', The trouble is that most people look at it when they use source material for Wednesdays character. It's not unreasonable, I suppose, given that most fans grew up on the movie and it's the first thing they think of when they think of the Addams'.
Except this isn't what Wednesday is like for the most part. In all early adaptations, as stated above, Wednesday is a sweet and caring kid who smiles, cries that a knight would cruelly slay a dragon, and even wears tutus and dances around with Lurch. The original comics do depict her as a bit darker, but she does still smile and show her emotions on a regular basis. Then the live action film series came along and suddenly we have a different sort of Wednesday.
Which, again, don't get me wrong, isn't a bad thing. It was a creative spin on her character which could have worked if it stayed within the film series. Except it didn't. The adaptations that followed all stuck with the emotionless, dead toned Wednesday like it was suddenly all she was. A lot of newer adaptations make her downright mean simply for the sake of being mean instead of giving her a valid reason.
Don't even get me started on that shitty CGI monstrosity that outright butchered the family and turned Morticia and Gomez into unsupportive, terrible parents who were trying way too hard to turn their kids into, well, them. And Wednesday (the show) was literally the worst piece of garbage I've ever seen, and I didn't even watch the whole thing. I could only stomach a few episodes before I completely lost interest.
Anyway, before I end up going off on a whole tangent about.... that.... what was supposed to be a one off adaptation series that turned out to be a masterpiece was treated like source material and that's how we ended up with the Wednesday we know and hate today. In a way, I guess it's sort of understandable. They're trying to take what made the 1991 and 1993 Wednesday great and roll with it. Except all they end up doing is rolling her off a cliff and expecting people to love the mangled pieces. It's honestly a tragedy and I fear it'll only get worse from here.
wednesday (netflix) has ruined the addams legacy fr bc why did i just see a post that was like okay but what if morticia and wednesday subvert common mother dayghter tropes and actually love eachother and morticia is super supportive of wednesday? BC THATS LITERALLY THE WHOLE POINT OF THE ADDAMS THE POINT IS THEYRE THE MOST CARING AND LOVING FAMILY AND GOMEZ AND MORTICIA SUPPORT THEIR CHILDREN AND LOVE THEM UNCONDITIONALLY AND THEY ACTUALLY RAISED THEM SUPER WELL AND PUGSLEY WEDNESDAY AND PUBERT LOVE THEIR PARENTS
the whole wednesday(netflix) being pissed at morticia literally makes no sense and i hate it so much (also the point of the addams is that theyre FREAKS and everyone around them is a normie. u need to envision edward scissorhands if u don’t understand the dynamic of the addams universe)(better yet watch ANY other addams iteration)(wednesday is a super sweet kid that loves the macabre)

I’ma start watching hermitcraft, what do you think is the best way to get into it?
welcome to hermitcraft! i hope you enjoy its very good. here are my “getting into hermitcraft” advices!
start from the current season, season nine. you can start from episode one of your chosen hermit or just sort of hop in; if you just sort of hop in you’ll miss a few fun events that have happened (namely, the diamond pillar war) but you’ll figure out what’s going on soon enough. season isn’t too long yet though so “watch from the beginning” shouldn’t be too rough.
unlike some other minecraft series hermitcraft can be entirely understood from the videos. some hermits stream hermitcraft and some don’t—my guy, for example, joe hills, is the guy who streams the most hermitcraft, streaming five nights a week plus some bonuses, whereas hermits like grian and mumbo don’t stream at all. so don’t worry that you’ve missed things on stream—it’ll turn up in a video if it was important!
because there are twenty-six hermits (I think I’m bad at counting forgive me if that’s wrong) it can be daunting to pick who you want to watch! i have a few advices for this.
advice one: if you know a hermit from elsewhere (for example you’ve watched an mcc team with them on it or maybe are a fan of one of the life series or maybe came across cub hanging out with a speedrunner etc etc), and you know you like them or you know you are at least somewhat interested, go with watching them! they’ll eventually start interacting with other hermits, which you can use to branch out as you want.
advice two: watch the hermitcraft recap! i mean, do this anyway; the jokes are funny, zloy and pixlriffs and lyarrah are beloved, and no one has time to watch all of the hermits every week. the recap ensures you can know the important bits of what everyone is up to, and when there are big events like the civil war, can be a vital resource to follow context for it! however, the recap serves another really important function: if you watch the recap you can get the vibes for most of the hermits and will get an idea of what all of their projects for the season are! it’s therefore a great way to both quickly catch up with hermitcraft to the current episodes and to pick hermits to watch.
advice three: there’s a “pick a hermit” video/flowchart on the recap channel too; it doesn’t have pearl and gem, the newest hermits, but it can also be a good way to pick a hermit to watch!
advice four: all that said, in general newer hermitcraft fans (and current ones) tend to like grian, who interacts with a lot of people and has videos that are of a fairly accessible style, so he’s often a good person to start with before you start branching out to the others.
advice five: also if you want specific recommendations you can tell me the kind of content you’re looking for out of hermitcraft and I can try to vibe check you.
I hope this helps!

Birthday Raspberries: The Origin Story
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DREAM!!!!
its dreams birthday, which is awesome, but that also means that my blog birthday is coming up, which is just way cooler, sorry dream (/j)
anyway!! this is the 3rd and unfortunately final installment of the birthday raspberries fic trilogy!! this one is a prequel to the other 2, so in chronological order is goes dream -> george -> sapnap :))
it's always so so so fun writing these fics, they're adorable, the dteam is adorable, birthday tickles are adorable, I love them. they're some of my favorite pics I've posted on here i think
little disclaimer before we start: this is a prequel, but it is still referenced to be dream 23rd birthday. does it make sense? no. but we can live with it
lee!dream, ler!sapnap, 3.1k words
enjoy!!
--
There was a certain tradition that Sapnap wanted to bring back. It was something that his family had instilled in him in his very early childhood but stopped as he got older, something that he remembered randomly one day in high school and renewed with his friends through those years, leading up to when they all went to college.
Unfortunately for Sapnap, a majority of his friend group split apart to move away for school or with their families, and most of his other friends were online, so this tradition that solely required being physically with a person was lost to him again.
Fortunately for Sapnap, he now lived in the same house as his best friend, frequently visited his other friends, and another one was coming to live with them soon. This was the perfect time to bring this tradition back again, he decided. Third time's the charm, right?
When Dream found out what the tradition was, he didn't exactly feel the same way.
It was nearing midnight, and the end of Dream's birthday, and Dream's family had already left a few hours ago after they came over for dinner and cake. Sapnap had offered to help make dinner, since Dream's family were bringing the cake, and between himself being helpful and Dream's mom being the cooking master, everything had turned out pretty good, and they had plenty of leftovers to last them the rest of the week.
Dream and Sapnap were laying on the couch in their living room, the newer one they had just bought a month or so before to better fit their living space. Dream sat partially slumped over, his arm draped along the back of the couch as he rested his head on it, legs crossed at the ankles as they laid out in front of him off the chaise of the couch. Sapnap laid perpendicular to him, lounging across the length of the couch with his head on Dream's thigh. They decided to watch a few episodes of an anime they were in the middle of before calling it a night, both of them still buzzing with too much happy energy to go to sleep yet. Finally, about halfway through the last episode of the season, Dream let out a yawn, covering his mouth and scrunching his nose up as he did.
"Tired?" Sapnap asked, tilting his head up at his friend. Dream nodded through the end of his yawn.
"Yeah, finally," Dream chuckled, rubbing his eye with his knuckle and sighing out the breath he'd spoken through. "I'll probably head up after this episode finishes."
"Mm…" Sapnap hummed in acknowledgment, looking back at the TV screen.
About 15 minutes later, the season credits were on screen, and Sapnap reached for the remote to exit out of the show. They spoke for a couple minutes about the ending, speaking in sleep-deprived tones as they giggled quietly. Sapnap spoke up again before they departed.
"Can I tell you a story I remembered earlier before we go to bed really quick?"
"Of course, I'm all ears," Dream replied, pushing his hood that had been covering his head off and running a hand through his hair.
"Okay, so like, I remembered this thing during dinner because it has to do with birthdays but I didn't get a chance to tell you bc it wasn't important," Sapnap looked up at Dream as he spoke, somehow still sounding energetic even with how tired Dream knew they both were. "So, when I was a little kid, like really little, my mom had this… I guess it was kind of a tradition? Where every year, on my birthday, she would come into my room in the morning and bring me breakfast in bed, and she'd, like…" Sapnap cut himself off with a small chuckle, breaking off into his own giggles as his face became a little pink and he looked away from Dream for a second before looking back. Dream had a confused look on his face, tilting his head like a puppy as he waited for Sapnap to keep going. "Okay, don't laugh, but she would, like, wake me up by tickling me and then she'd give me a bunch of raspberries, however many years old I was that day," Sapnap admitted through his giggles, and Dream smiled at his confession, giggling a bit to himself at the idea of a kid-Sapnap getting lost in laughter from a few little raspberries. "And, dude, when I was a kid, I fucking loved that shit, I thought it was the most fun thing in the world and then I'd eat my little bowl of cereal and bacon and toast that she brought me and she'd sit with me and I'd break her off pieces of the toast to eat and I thought I was the best kid in the world, it was fucking awesome."
"That's adorable," Dream responded, and Sapnap continued again.
"So then, when I got older, she kind of stopped, because once you get older and into, like, middle school or past age 10 that stuff tends to stop, which is fine, but I forgot about it for a while until one day in high school it was my friends birthday and I just randomly remembered it, so I was like 'fuck it', y'know? I wanted to bring it back, so when we stayed at his house that night and I made sure I was the first one there so I could tell everyone about it– and I made sure everyone was comfortable, I didn't go overboard or anything, but we were all pretty physically affectionate people so no one really minded that much, and also we all loved embarrassing each other so it just worked."
"Mhm."
"And since everyone kinda left for college after junior or senior year I only got to do it a few times, like I did it to that kid on his 17th birthday, another kid on his 18th, and this one girl in our group on her 18th, and it was always so fun and hilarious."
"That does sound pretty funny," Dream agreed, and Sapnap smiled up at him, knowing his plan was coming into action faster than he had imagined.
"It was… but anyway, that was a really long story, but it does have a point, okay?" Dream nodded. "So the point is… I think I wanna bring the tradition back." Sapnap explained almost sheepishly, looking up at Dream for reassurance.
"Sapnap, are you asking me to give you birthday raspberries when it gets to your birthday?" Dream asked with a wide smile, originally wanting to seem smug and embarrass Sapnap, but seeing the smile on his face made his tone come out as genuine and soft as it could be.
"No! Well– well, yes, but, that's not what I meant right now," Sapnap explained further, waiting for the lightbulb to flick on in Dream's mind.
It didn't. Instead, Dream looked at him as if he'd spoken a completely different language.
"I don't… I don't get what you're saying, then," Dream said, toying with the end of his hoodie string as he curled the end around his finger and pulled it to be even with the opposite string.
"Dream. I want you to let me do it to you."
Dream's eyes widened just slightly, glancing at Sapnap and then looking away, switching between the two as he let out a shocked chuckle.
"Oh…" Dream said, unhelpful, as he tried to think of anything to say in response. He fidgeted with his hoodie string again. "Um…"
"C'mon, please?" Sapnap asked, leaning up slightly on one elbow and reaching his free hand up to lace his fingers with Dream's hand. Dream let his hand be held, smiling despite himself. "I'll be nice! And– and if you let me do it now, you can help me do it to everyone else in the future too! Like– George definitely, and Karl and Quackity if we're around them on theirs. Just let me do it, come on, just, come on."
"But you said it's the same number as whatever age you're turning? That's a lot, Sapnap, you haven't had it done to you since you were 10 or some shit, there's a big difference between 10 and 23." Dream explained nervously.
"I know, but you did say earlier that it sounded fun!" Sapnap elaborated as he fully sat up, pointing a finger at Dream accusingly. Suddenly, he got a devious idea, smirking as he continued. "But I can be gentle, I get it, you're fragile."
"I'm not fragile!"
"It's okay, Dream, I understand, you're worried you won't be able to handle it."
"That is not what I said!"
"No, it's fine, you're just too ticklish for this, it's okay."
"N-no!"
"Maybe when we get George here he'll say yes and then it'll prove he's stronger than you."
"Fine!" Dream finally caved, pulling his hand away from Sapnap in favor of pulling his sleeves over his hands and curling in on himself. He sat cross-legged now, his hands folded in his lap and elbows brought in close to his body. "Fine, I'll– I'll let you do it, if you shut up about me being too 'ticklish' and 'fragile' to handle it, I could literally beat you up."
Sapnap smiled proudly, holding out his hand for a handshake.
"Deal," he said, waiting for Dream to grab his hand.
"Dea–" Dream tried to respond, but was cut off by a loud yell as Sapnap held his hand tight and yanked him forward. He was too caught off guard to catch himself, so he landed on his side, his shoulder colliding with the soft couch cushions and his knee colliding with Sapnap's arm. Before he could even process what happened, Sapnap was sitting on top of him, straddling his hips and reaching behind him to press his knees so they were flat as well. Dream tried to protest when he felt his hoodie being pushed up just slightly, the sliver of skin by his hip above the waistband of his sweatpants showing now. "NO! No, no, Sapn–AP!" Dream yelped, gasping and slamming his hands over his mouth when there was a sudden, unbearable vibrating sensation on his hip that felt like it was coming from inside his skin.
Sapnap had blown the first raspberry. And if that was just the first, Dream had no fucking clue how he was going to be able to handle the remaining 22.
He caught his breath quickly, body tense and stiff as Sapnap sat up and laughed at him.
"Shut the hell up," Dream said when he heard him laughing.
"I didn't even say anything!" Dream huffed out a breath and rolled his eyes, maneuvering his body so he was more comfortable. Sapnap let him move around, and he ended up laying fully back with his knees bent and his legs propped up against the back of the couch, his ankles against the arm. Sapnap moved over as well, sitting on the corner bumper of the couch where Dream was before in order to have full access to Dream's body.
"That wasn't nice," Dream muttered, crossing his arms in front of his chest in an attempt to seem intimidating, but his wide smile and the fact that he was still holding onto the ends of his sleeves gave him away.
"Which part, the throwing you around like a ragdoll or the part where I completely wrecked your shit?"
"Both!"
"Mhm, still think you could beat me up?"
"Yes! I definitely could!" Sapnap jumped at the opportunity, pushing Dream's hoodie up again and blowing another raspberry in the same place as before. "NO!" Dream yelled, catching him in the act this time and moving to push at his head. He still tried to hold in his laughter, biting his lip this time, until Sapnap blew a third raspberry, and then his attempts were lost. "Sapnahahahap!" Dream giggled out, grabbing at Sapnap's shoulder and shaking his head. Another raspberry was blown on his side, followed by a fifth against the bottom of his ribs. Dream took in a sharp breath as his laughter began anew, fingers gripping the fabric of Sapnap's hoodie as he pulled him away slightly. "GOHOHOD jeheheheez let– lehehet me breheathe!"
Sapnap giggled slightly as he pulled away, rubbing his palm soothingly over Dream's bunched up hoodie.
"Sorry. Guess I'm a little eager," Sapnap apologized bashfully. "You're just so cute, I can't help it."
"Shut up," Dream groaned, smiling wide at Sapnap's genuine words. "You're annoying."
"Yeah," Sapnap agreed, tone sweet, before he suddenly leaned forward and blew a raspberry right on Dream's tummy. Dream let out a strained, wheezy laugh, caught off guard once again by the sudden feeling, curling up slightly and instinctively cradling the back of Sapnap's head in his hands. Three more were blown in quick succession in a line just underneath his belly button, and he flopped back onto the couch just to arch his back away from the feeling.
"OHOH GOHOHOD, Sapnahahahap!" Sapnap pulled back to laugh along with Dream again, adjusting the way he was sitting to be a little closer to him. He pushed Dream's hoodie a bit further up, then proceeded to blow four raspberries in a diamond shape– one at his sternum, one at the front of his left side's ribs, one in the center of his tummy, and one on the right, before finishing that section with one right in the middle of the diamond. "Sahahap, plehehehease!"
"Fine! Fine, you're such a baby, you literally have, like, only 9 left," Sapnap teased, letting Dream catch his breath again. Dream's giggles kept up as he took a few deep breaths, reaching up to cover his face with his hands, before reaching further back to pull his hood up and over his head, pulling it as far as it would go to help him hide his bright red face.
"9 ihis still a lot, Sapnahap!" Dream mumbled.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, I can help, let's make it 8 instead," Sapnap continued his teasing, smiling as he dropped his head down to meet Dream's torso again, lips landing to the left of his belly button and making him arch his back. As he squirmed, turning as far onto his side as he could and leaving his back exposed, Sapnap decided to seize the opportunity and blow a raspberry on the back of his ribs.
The sensation hit Dream like a freight train.
"FUCK!" Dream yelled, covering his mouth with his hand and using his other arm to brace himself against the couch. His fist collided with the cushion twice before he simply resorted to gripping the fabric tightly between his fingers. His reaction was enough to make Sapnap stop on his tracks, grinning like a little kid on Christmas.
"Okay. I don't know what I just did, but I know for a fact that the rest of these raspberries need to do the exact same thing," Sapnap said, in slight disbelief at how much of a reaction that spot got out of Dream.
"NO, you don't!" Dream shook his head, moving to lay down on his back again, but Sapnap's hand pushing against his side stopped him. "No, stop! Stop, don't, just get it over with normally!"
"Absolutely not, I'm gonna do it my way," Sapnap explained as he pushed Dream harder, kneeling up on his knees before straddling the back of Dream's thighs when he pushed him fully over.
"Sapnap, noho, no, that's not fahair–" Dream tried to push himself back, but with the way his torso was twisted and the way Sapnap was sitting on his legs, it was almost impossible to do anything but kick his legs against the arm of the couch and turn fully onto his stomach.
"Alright enough stalling," Sapnap commented before pushing Dream's hoodie up his back, blowing another raspberry on the back of Dream's ribs. Dream arched his back again, not getting very far this time with the way his front was pressed into the couch below him.
"Nahahaha, ohohoh my gohohod, that's so bahahahad," Dream complained, squealing and covering his mouth in embarrassment when Sapnap placed three raspberries in a line up his spine, the first one right between the dips of the dimples in his lower back and the final one netween his shoulder blades. "Sahahapnahap, plehehehease,"
"It's alright, there's just three left, you're so close. You honestly lasted way longer than I expected."
"Whahahat– ahaha– whahat is that supposed to mehean?" Dream asked, turning his head around to look at Sapnap behind him.
"Nothing! I just expected you to tap out, y'know?"
"I dihidn't– AH!" Sapnap cut him off by leaning forward and blowing a raspberry against the side of his neck.
"Sorry, what was that?"
"Yohohou suhuck…" Dream mumbled, burying his face in his arm as he waited for the final two raspberries to hit him. "I wahas– I was gonna sahay Ihihi don't need toho tap out."
"Oh. Well, that's good, because I'm gonna make these last two unbearable now," Sapnap teased again, earning a loud, muffled groan from Dream. Sapnap took a deep breath, taking in as much air as he possibly could, smiling as he used all of his breath to blow one long, continued raspberry on Dream's side.
"NAHAhaha–!" Dream laughed freely, strength leaving his body as Sapnap repeated the action, blowing his longest raspberry yet as his big finale. He giggled against Dream's skin as he pulled away, tugging Dream's hoodie down and flopping down to lay flat on top of his limp form.
"Allllll done, birthday boy!" Sapnap said, still giggling along with Dream as he came down from his ticklish high.
"That was horrible. My spine is tingling," Dream explained once his laughter calmed down. "I'm exhausted."
"You're welcome," Sapnap said with a giggle, making Dream smile and shake his head against his arm.
Sapnap pushed himself up, standing and reaching a hand out to help Dream stand as well. It took him a moment to adjust himself, twisting his hoodie's sleeves and torso from where they were slightly turned from his squirming, and standing up straight to stretch.
"And," Sapnap began. "Just think. Now you can help me do this to other people too. Especially George."
Dream couldn't help but smile, the idea of George falling victim to the same treatment he was just subjected to sitting at the forefront of his mind.
"I would be honored."
And with that, the two parted to their individual bedrooms, and Dream went to sleep that night thinking about what it might be like if he was one to get Sapnap back on his upcoming birthday…
It may have been the best night of sleep he'd ever had.
#lee!dream#ler!sapnap#i hope . i got the number of raspberries right lmao#for some reason my brain could just Not keep count this time#if there are any typos or the wronf number of raspberries no there arent <3 and you saw nothing <3#cals writing

Thank you firstly so much for answering. i should have been more specific yeah, sorry. I did research fictionkin for the year (bonus, i identified (identify? i'm on the fence at the moment) as therian for four years, five now technically. anyway, i did do a lot of research on fictionkin and hover around 'kin spaces for a long while.
i do think you're right in that my (autistic) hyperfixations play some large part in this. i just hate it and wish i had both a better way to manage it and ignore it. It isn't that i see things in whatever character it is that i can identify in myself. For background info, i've always had quite a hyperactive imagination. that applies to my dreams as well, and how it first started was in my dreams i was physically whichever character it was at the time. (it's not a long list; maybe five tops.) Anyway. i had/have very vivid dreams that are usually in that character's universe, as that character in HIGH detail. Im talking ive had dreams where ive literally walked up to mirrors and seen the character's accurate frown lines and whatnot. And (usually) in these dreams I don't remember anything about my (real) self. Sometime's it'll feature other characters from the same canon and i interact with them as the character (i) am in that dream, even if it isn't how (i) would act irl. At first it was really surprising and jarring (still is. especially when it's a character i haven't been in a dream before) And after a while it leaks? into my waking hours. usually as you said, i adapt parts of their personality or even simple dislikes and likes. It's genuinely irritating. I have an inner monologue as well, which I think is pretty common, except sometime's i'll hear it in the voice of whichever character is most bothersome (i'll use bothersome because its the most apt word at the moment) at the time. All in all, it is something i try to ignore most of the time, and it varies in strength? sometimes ill go a few days where every single night it's those vividly irritating dreams.
one other thing i'd like to mention is that it's also changed my perception of my own gender and what have you else. Previously i've never questioned my gender, because i've always felt comfortable as my assigned gender, but after several of these dreams, physically being in those characters bodies and minds (or at least, that's how it feels.) it feels odd and almost dysphoric. Especially since the character's (at least the two right now. One is new and the other is the one that kickstarted the whole thing that- i thought was a phase. it's been 11 months and kicking. yes i am pissed off.) one is bodily a woman and the other is male. (Bit odd sometimes, especially since the newer one is a male character) i do hope it's just a long lasting phase and not something that will continue through the next few years. The stupidest things will trigger an "episode" too. The one i've been trying to cut off entirely (the 11 months and going on 12) ive cut all media of off, but even things like familiar shoes or clothing will set off this weird feeling. Best i can describe is suddenly zoning out? like, feeling quite distant all of a sudden. Anyway. if any ex-kin have any helpful information i am looking for any. I'm not looking for fictionkin/otherkin hate. I'm genuinely looking for people who did identify and stopped, and their advice. Thank you, again. :] I hope this isn't too confusing to read
made an anonymous account to write this stuff because I don’t want to use my main blog. But uh
I want to talk to my therapist about my experience with (as?) fictionkin. More so about how much I hate it but that’s beside the point. Almost a year ago exactly I started using the label ‘fictionkin’ because it is what fit best at the time (still haven’t found anything else) but I hated fictionkin. I was anti fictionkin for the longest time and then I realised why and I was even more so for a period of time. I’m also autistic, and I think that may have a part to play, but I’m really sick of not being able to watch or consume any media without it crawling into my mind like some sort of parasite. I would love to be able to watch movies and shows without waking up five days later feeling the familiar dread that is “oh crap, why have my ideals and entire fucking personality traits shifted overnight.” I hate it. Haven’t brought it up to my therapist because I honestly don’t know how she’d take it but it really irritates me. I only just managed to cut off one of the ones that most affected me over the longest period of time, and that was only by removing any media surrounding that character. But I still feel like it’s going to creep back up the moment I let my guard down. I don’t even know if this is fictionkin but it’s the only label I found that kind of suited the situation. Uh. If anyone has any tips that’d be nice! ( because I thought I’d quelled this habit for good but another one has started showing up in my dreams and the cycle is starting again help I don’t want to go through identity confusion again.)
