[ENG sub/translation] Bojan Cvjetićanin: "Slovenia is too small for Tinder" (podcast)
Tumblr media
Bojan Cvjetićanin on Cosmopolitan podcast, originally published on the 15th of September 2020 here. Podcast host: Anamarija Lukovec. Translation by @varianestoroff, native English proofreading by TWT @/klámstrákur.
This is an audio-only podcast, but you can listen and read the subtitles along with it here:
youtube
or you can read the full transcript in this post!
Teaser:
Bojan: I don't want to be available... available with a click. I want to be available in that if I am sitting in a bar, anyone can come up to me, that any girl can come up to me and ask me, I don't know, “Would you like to have a drink with me?”, “Can I have your number?”, whatever. Which doesn't happen anymore anyway, but...
Full transcript under the cut!
Host: Hi, believe it or not, the Cosmo Podcast is back. And it's back for a new, changed second season. Some things will stay the same, some things will change a little. And the very first thing that remains the same is that ... it remains the same that I will still be in front of the microphone. My name is Anamarija Lukovec and I'm the executive editor of Cosmopolitan.
In fact, I was thinking that we don't even know each other. We don't even know each other, actually. Even if you've heard all the episodes from last season, you probably don't know anything about me. I don't know anything about you. So I will introduce myself with one piece of information, which has somehow defined the new season. I notice in myself that I have many opinions that are not widely held. And also that, [while we] as a society are promoting ourselves as increasingly open-minded, free-thinking, accepting, we often act very hypocritically and are even Hostile to opinions that are not in line with ours, or with some opinions that are accepted by the majority.
So I want every guest of mine who comes to the new season of the podcast to present their unpopular opinion as a starting point for our discussion. To break taboos, to talk about things that may often go unheard to educate ourselves, and perhaps to anger or soothe our souls. Okay. Yes, and I'd really like to get to know you too, I'd like to know who you are, who's basically a Cosmo Podcast listener, so I'm inviting you, to send me your ideas, your secrets, your compliments, your complaints. Or you can just write, "Hi". I suggest Instagram for that. You can DM me at lunaticpoetry. It's L-U-N-A-T-I-C-P-O-E-T-R-Y. And yes, I don't use my real name, more on that another time.
So yeah, if you're up for it, we can get started and kick off a new season of the podcast. My first guest, yes, it's a male guest, not a female guest, I can't believe it, a round of applause... he's a musician, singer, frontman of the band Joker Out, Bojan Cvjetićanin. I'm sure you know him. I am sure you have a very good reason for knowing him. Bojan came to talk to me about relationships, dating, girls...
Before that, before we did the podcast, he also made a video. We invited him for a blind date in front of the camera because Bojan is single, wink wink. So yeah, I invite you, after you're done listening to the podcast, to click over to youtube.com/cosmopolitanslovenija where you can watch the blind date with Bojan¹.
And yes, let's start, right. Hi Bojan.
Bojan: Hi.
Host: How was your first blind date on camera?
Bojan: I was a bit nervous because I hadn't been on any blind dates before, and then the first time it was in front of the camera, oh my gosh. The camera catches everything, you can't hide anything. But I think I did a great job. The girl was great too.
Host: Do you think maybe you two have a future together?
Bojan: I don't know. I don't know. I must take a look at the crystal ball at home.
Host: Ah ok. In fact, our topic for today, your unpopular opinion, is also a little bit about love, dating, and so on. Can you just reveal your thoughts?
Bojan: My unpopular opinion, I don't know how unpopular it really is, but it is that Slovenia is too small for Tinder.
Host: Okay. And why do you think so?
Bojan: I feel that way because it seems to me that we all know someone who knows someone, and in Slovenia, this kind of social network very quickly turns into something where in the end everybody knows everybody and Tinder, at least in my experience, is quite, how should I say... funny, because you very quickly come across people you know.
Host: But maybe Slovenia is too small for dating in general? Because sooner or later you find, meet, date someone who someone you know has dated or been in contact with.
Bojan: I think it is. In fact, it is... We have this concept of dating, which I think is very different from the American one. In America, it's normal to go out with someone a couple of times a week and then, if you like them, you go to another one and maybe something develops. I don't think that exists here. Here, if you like someone a lot, you write to them on Instagram and then, if you're lucky, they say you can go out and two days later everyone knows.
Host: Yes, pretty much.
Bojan: Then you are off the list for all her friends.
Host: You close the door.
Bojan: Yes
Host: Do you think that makes us slower to go public with our relationships?
Bojan: Shoot, I don't know. Maybe we are a bit more secretive about it then, because of that, because we want to keep that certain feeling that the whole city doesn't know exactly who you're with but then all your friends are thinking about whether they know someone who was with your girlfriend or for girls if one of them was with her boyfriend.
Host: But perhaps the biggest problem here is that we are somehow closing our options, when we decide too quickly whether to be with someone
Bojan: To close our options with others?
Host: Yeah, let's say, because you know that if you're with a girl, then you probably won't go out with her friends or acquaintances. Well...
Bojan: In fact, that's probably pretty true, yes. Because I already feel that since we tend to introduce our friends to our online followers, and you're usually with them on stories and in photos, it would be a bit strange if one of your acquaintances dated the same person two months later, when you [and that person] were previously in the same pictures.
Host: And everyone would know. And suddenly you have a soap opera in front of the whole world.
Bojan: Right.
Host: Since you said Tinder is too small for Slovenia, you probably have your own experience with Tinder. You mentioned something earlier when we were filming. Would you tell us a little bit about your encounter with this app?
Bojan: I have a rather funny experience with Tinder. I was very interested to see what it was like. And of course I had to download it. And I made a profile, I put like three photos up and so on. And then I started getting screenshots of my Tinder profile in Instagram messages from some followers, “Oh my god, is that you?”, “Hey, is that you?”, and so I was like, “No, it's not me, no. It's a fake profile. It's a fake profile.” And it felt really awkward so I deleted it immediately.
Host: But why did you feel awkward?
Bojan: I actually made one because I was curious...
Host: In what it is like?
Bojan: In what it is like. This user experience. You actually see people and you just swipe them and there are no consequences. Nothing happens if you swipe someone left or if you swipe someone right. And I found that very interesting. But then I realised, yes, okay, but now it can be public opinion that I need to look for a girlfriend through an online service.
Host: Girlfriend. Or a one night stand.
Bojan: Right.
Host: Do you think public opinion is generally negative towards online dating? Because it seems to me there it is a kind of stigma, or something people are hesitant about when going online to look for love or a partner, because it's, I don't know...
Bojan: I think that this ‘Frendi in Flirt’ (‘Friends and Flirting’)² started when I was little and then the whole story was that these are services for people who are desperate. Both Tinder and these apps have normalised things a lot, I think, because it's virtually at everyone's fingertips. You sign in with that one click to connect with Facebook or you make a password and that's it. It used to be a process of making a profile and a photo and put the age and blah blah blah. And it was a bit more official, I think, when you decided to take that step. Now it's not a step anymore, now it's just, I download it in my room at home and in three minutes I have Tinder. So I don't think there is that much stigma about online dating anymore, I also know a lot of people who are in some kind of relationship through this, so I'd say there's still a bit of that, okay, LOL, you met on Tinder, there is no stigma of being a sad loner, someone desperate.
Host: By going on Tinder, you are basically admitting to the whole world or to all people who will see you there, that you are looking for something. And that's a bit awkward for us to admit. Yes, I am looking for something.
Bojan: Yes, in fact it is. I also... that was one of the reasons I deleted it. I mean, what is there for me to find now, you know?
Host: I'm cool on my own.
Bojan: Yeah, I mean, no, I'm cool on my own, but that, well, not everyone needs to know, that I am now looking for something, and that I am very available. Do you know what the cool thing is? That... I don't want to be available... available with a click. I want to be available in that if I am sitting in a bar, anyone can come up to me, that any girl can come up to me and ask me, I don't know, “Would you like to have a drink with me?”, “Can I have your number?”, whatever. Which doesn't happen anymore anyway, but... I would like to be available like that. But I don't want to be available for someone who can just swipe on me.
Host: Yes, yes, okay. Now, you said that a couple of girls screenshotted your Tinder and then sent it to you on Instagram. Did those same girls, for example, message you directly on Instagram?
Bojan: You mean directly on Tinder?
Host: Yes. No. Yes. Or directly on Instagram. Let's say, okay, on Tinder, if you didn't swipe them, they couldn't get to you...
Bojan: Yeah, probably then they wouldn't be able to.
Host: But then they wrote to you on Instagram, probably in some, I don't know, wishful thinking to get in touch with you. Why do you think they don't go directly to Instagram? Why... Seeing you on Tinder gave them a green light: "Oh, in fact, he is free, I can write to him."
Bojan: Maybe. But I also think it is a much easier way to just communicate something that already exists, than to start a conversation yourself. That's the same as, I don't know, I think most of the time, if we're sliding into someone's DMs, we're sliding through some story first or something you can reply to. It's much easier to reply back to something they've posted, than starting a conversation from scratch, where you let the person know you've come with the purpose that you want to get to know them and initiate a relationship. Like that looks so innocent: I'm just replying to what you posted.
Host: Can you explain to me this game of sliding in the DMs, because I'm a bit out of the loop?
Bojan: Okay. Honestly, I don't know what can I tell you, because I don't practice it at such a level either. I have two ways to slide into the DMs, I think. One is that if I see something on a story that I actually find interesting or funny, I slide into the DMs and I don't really mean to initiate anything else. And I just comment on what went on there, and sometimes a really interesting conversation starts afterwards. But sometimes you really do just reply, because why not?
Host: Okay. You've camouflaged it so well now that no girl will be able to tell exactly what you want the next time you slide.
Bojan: Yes.
Host: Good. But what do you think happened to the actual old school approach towards a girl or towards a guy in person?
Bojan: I mean, it has changed completely, but now, basically, now that I think about it, I wouldn't dare say which way. I definitely think it is much easier if you see someone outside and you like them, wait until you get home and text them on Instagram, "Hey, saw you in town." Or whatever. "Would you like to go for a coffee with me?" Asking someone out for coffee rather than actually approaching them.
On the other hand, it seems to me that since we are all so exposed on these social networks, giving our followers the impression that they are somehow present in our lives, letting them into all kinds of situations, so that I could say that people feel as if they're already your friends somehow, before they even know you. So maybe in a way... basically, I will say, I think it's much easier for people to get to you at parties now, because they feel that they are somehow already connected, or that they already know something about you and can initiate a conversation based on something you do or post and share on your social networks. In the city, when you see someone, it's easier to wait until you get home and then write to them on Instagram.
But the last time I went out for ice cream with a friend, a dude actually came along and he was like, "Hi, can I just grab you for a second?" and I thought that some Jehovah's Witness was going to start selling some books there. And the guy actually came and told my friend that he couldn't resist, because he liked her so much that he just came to ask for her contact, to take her out for a drink and I was like "Wow, what a gentleman."
Host: Plus you were there.
Bojan: I was there. The first thing he asked, he was very polite, the first thing he asked was if we were a couple. I said no, go ahead. And he was, indeed, extremely kind. A very polite guy.
Host: And did she give it to him?
Bojan: Hey, she gave him her Facebook, I think. I don't know if they went out after that, I have no idea. But it was pretty impressive for me, he got respect points from me.
Host: Cool. How do you act if you see one girl somewhere and you like her?
Bojan: I usually try to find out who the girl is as quickly as possible, then sneak into some of the places where she's hanging around, you know?
Host: Aha, oh, but that's...
Bojan: I mean, ok, that sounded a little bit creepy now.
Host: No, no, it's fine.
Bojan: I watched two episodes of that show, 'She'...
Host: ‘She'?
Bojan: Isn't 'She' the series?
Host: ‘You'?
Bojan: ‘You'. That, yes, sorry. Yeah, I've just realised that I've been that dude, very creepy.
Host: They're probably people you have something in common with, you don't just...
Bojan: Yes, I didn't mean like sneaking in, just going out somewhere, but I meant more along the lines of, ok, now I see she's going to Kino Šiška for an event and then I will go there on purpose, even if I wasn't planning to otherwise. For example, you just invite a friend for a beer and watch out for where she is.
Host: How would you describe your love life or the current situation?
Bojan: I am extremely single. I don't know what you call it. Single and ready to mingle.
Host: To mingle.
Bojan: But actually, I don't know, I'm not looking for anything. I'm in a period now in which I'm like, trying to devote myself as much as possible to music and all that. So I try to be as creative as possible and not let any unnecessary thoughts distract me from being creative. But if anything ever happens, I'm always open to socialising.
Host: Since we were just talking about Tinder earlier. Tinder is also often associated with certain modern relationships, which often have some negative connotations. Undefined relationships and indecisiveness. Blablabla. Fuckboys, etc. But do you think this is really a new culture?
Bojan: From what I hear from acquaintances who live in slightly bigger countries, Tinder is actually just there as a means to get to non-committal sex very quickly. In Slovenia... given that I've never actually used it properly, I don't know exactly. But I suppose, knowing people who are in serious relationships, that people here take it a bit more as... actually seeing someone, they might like each other and go out and get to know each other. But there are almost certainly a lot of people who are only there for the sex. I mean...
Host: Which is not necessarily a bad thing.
Bojan: No, I mean, I don't think it's bad at all, really, because if two people are physically attracted to each other and if they are actually safe in their physical relationship, which is to say, approaching the matter safely, I see absolutely no problem with that, honestly.
Host: Do you have any personal objections, like what you wouldn't do in a relationship or romance? Given that so many things are so okay and acceptable nowadays and things are...
Bojan: What do you mean?
Host: I don't know.
Bojan: Be more specific.
Host: Let's say open relationships, cheating...
Bojan: Aha. Okay, I've practically only been in a serious relationship once and when I was in the serious relationship I would never have thought of an open relationship and I never cheated. It honestly seems to me that if two people date in an open relationship and it works for them or rather, it suits them, then I have no problem. But if two people are in a monogamous relationship, cheating is one thing that's very, very wrong to me, I do not support it at all. So, I have nothing against open unions, I would not practice them myself. At least not for now. I have a very negative attitude towards cheating.
Host: Personally, I think Slovenia is totally too small for cheating in general, we don't approve of it.
Bojan: Absolutely.
Host: But how do you think this even works? People still do it.
Bojan: Hey, in fact, people do it full on. I mean, I have a big circle of people around me and I hear many stories and I, personally, with this anxiety that I have inside, I couldn't even manage these master plans and combine multiple hidden lives. I don't know. But some people actually enjoy it very much.
Host: You really have to have a lot of time to do that. It must be a hobby for you.
Bojan: It must be, I guess, a hobby for you, but you must really not feel sorry for your partner. Because you always find out in the end, undoubtedly always. Never...
Host: I think you find out before you even cheat. For example, when we were looking for a girl to go on a blind date with you the other day, a colleague contacted a girl. Before she even heard back from her, that girl's brother told her that he already knew she'd been looking for his sister. So within fifteen minutes it got around. So, let's say, one example of how quickly information gets around Slovenia.
Bojan: Well, here we go. Pretty awkward.
Host: Considering you're a young musician and I kind of feel like you musicians have a reputation for certain qualities when it comes to women and relationships. Would you say that you are the usual, stereotypical womaniser, someone who breaks women's hearts? Because I'm sure someone would believe that you are.
Bojan: Yes, I know that too, they are convinced that I am. I think, that at least here, some Casanova style Mick Jagger rock'n'roll version is impossible, because it's one thing to be in Los Angeles one day and New York the next. I would absolutely not call myself a womaniser. I choose the relationships I have very carefully. But I am very flirtatious. I do very much enjoy flirting, actually, not at all because I would have expected any starting point from this, we know what I mean by that. But just for that, because it's actually a lot of fun to give someone some playful signals and receive them back. I think it's a bit like, it gets your adrenaline flowing a bit, it's not harmful at all, I'm sure it releases hormones of happiness and joy along with it, so I think that it's only healthy and that people should be more flirtatious in general.
Host: How do you make yourself more flirtatious? Let's say, it seems to me that it really depends on someone's nature.
Bojan: It's in our natures, but I think people just need to relax and open up a bit. I think most people have feelings inside them, but they don't dare to express them. I mean, if I like... if I like a girl, I have no problem with that, if we look at each other, catch each other's eyes, I'll smile nicely, I don't know, if it's appropriate at the moment, I don't know, I'll wink. Or something. You know what I mean? Not winking like this, "What's up babygirl?", but in a way that is playfully flirtatious. Whatever. I think people need to realise that these things are not a crime and that someone won't hold a grudge against you if you smile at them beautifully, [or] if you initiate a small conversation, because that is just a small part of our lives and [we are just] creating some bonds, so I think showing emotion is a very important thing.
Host: But what if I linked it to, let's say, cheating? How would you feel if your partner or you flirted with others while you were in a relationship? Would you consider that cheating?
Bojan: I wouldn't consider it cheating, but it would probably bother me, so I'd want to talk about it.
Host: How would you defend your generation, to which perhaps the older generations ascribe many prejudices, looking at the way we... what kind of relationships we have, how we socialise?
Bojan: I think it is very easy for each generation to look at the younger generation and... to look down on the younger generation and judge them, because maybe things were a little different in their time. All these things are very much linked to the whole lifestyle we have. It's not just the way young people are in relationships today, or the kind of life as a couple they have, because it's all connected to our whole lifestyle and living on the internet, travelling the world at every moment and blablabla. I find that very hypocritical of them, given that they are a generation, or okay, maybe they're a bit younger than this generation, but they were nevertheless this certain generation of this free love, psychedelia, who used sex and drugs to push back on the war. So it seems to me that this particular delinquency was far from being invented by us but it dates back to ancient times. So I think for all people, who think that young people today have invented some perversions, open relationships, gayness, and so on should read a book from ancient Greece or Rome and see, that Caligula³ lived all this two thousand years ago.
Host: Just a little less hidden, I guess.
Bojan: Yes, maybe.
Host: Would you be up for a challenge? Since you said you're not a womaniser.
Bojan: Yes.
Host: I have a BuzzFeed test here.
Bojan: BuzzFeed test?
Host: Are you a fuckboy? Do you want to take it?
Bojan: Okay, let's go.
Host: Have you ever sent a "You up?" text? "Are you sleeping?"
Yes, once. I promise.
No, never.
Yeah, that's my go-to move.
Bojan: No. I don't think so, really.
Host: Have you ever cheated on someone?
Bojan: No.
Host: You said it. "Have you ever sent an unwanted picture of your "little friend"?
Bojan: No.
Host: Have you ever sexted more than one person at the same time?
Bojan: Yes.
Host: Have you slept with two people in the same week?
Bojan: No.
Host: Have you ever made up an excuse to leave immediately after sex?
Bojan: I think, yes.
Host: Have you ever convinced someone that you didn't need to use a condom?
Bojan: No.
Host: I would never. Okay. Have you ever posted a picture without your shirt on?
Bojan: Yes, indeed. In fact, I must have been shirtless a couple of times in the stories now, but I posted one shirtless photo two years ago.
Host: Ok.
Bojan: At sea.
Host: Yes, yes. Do you think all of your exes are "crazy bitches"?
Bojan: No.
Host: Have you ever asked a girl to send nudes?
Bojan: Yes.
Host: Have you ever bragged about girls you've been with?
Bojan: Like openly?
Host: Yes.
Bojan: No.
Host: Have you complained about being "friendzoned"?
Bojan: Almost certainly.
Host: Ok. Have you ever sent that emoji of a monkey covering its eyes?
Bojan: No.
Host: Do you have any...
Bojan: What is this monkey's thing?
Host: I don't know, maybe... it's some fuckboy hallmark, I don't know.
Do you have any V-neck tees?
Bojan: Mhm.
Host: Do you wear them?
Bojan: My mum bought them for me, so I guess it's not really fuckboyish.
Host: Yes. Do you have any tattoos that are only visible while wearing a V-neck?
Bojan: No.
Host: Do you have any tattoos?
Bojan: No, I don't.
Host: Have you ever slid into a girl's Twitter DMs?
Bojan: I don't have Twitter.
Host: What about Instagram? We said yes.
Bojan: Yes.
Host: Are you in a band? Yees.
Bojan: Yes.
Host: You see, the hallmark of fuckboys. Are you a DJ?
Bojan: No. I mean, if she wants, I can be a DJ.
Host: Could be: "No, but my friend is this like super poppin' DJ".
Bojan: Yes, it could, it's true.
Host: Oh, it doesn't work.
Bojan: Can't fix it anymore?
Host: No. What are Top-Sider⁴?
Bojan: I don't know.
Host: We'll put... oh, it's some shoes.
Bojan: Then I'm sure not, because I only wear one pair of trainers, and that's these.
Host: I don't think that's it. Have you ever introduced a girl you've been dating as your "friend"?
Bojan: No.
Host: Have you ever randomly texted a girl you booty called more than a year ago?
Bojan: Booty called? Wait, what if I what?
Host: If you've been with a girl then, after a long time, you write her a random message.
Bojan: Almost certainly, yes.
Host: But were you genuinely interested in how her life was going or just a little bit because you saw her on Instagram?
Bojan: I think only because I saw her on Instagram.
Host: Have you ever travelled to Southeast Asia?
Bojan: No.
Host: Have you ever explained craft beer to a woman?
Bojan: Let's say yes, I think, but...
Host: Yes, but she was genuinely interested.
Bojan: Let's put down "She was genuinely interested", yes.
Host: Ok.
Bojan: Because I don't really know what craft beer is myself. But I mean... I think one of them asked me once why I was drinking it, because she found it very disgusting.
Host: Have you ever based an outfit on one of Kanye West's outfits?
Bojan: Oh, no, unfortunately.
Host: Do you own a hoodie that costs more than some people's rent?
Bojan: No. If you add up all the hoodies, they don't cost like a tenth of the rent.
Host: Have you ever ghosted someone?
Bojan: This means...
Host: That you suddenly stopped replying to them. The girls. Did you have a legitimate reason or did your phone die?
Bojan: Sure... yeah I did, but not like that, ghosting is probably for a very long time, no? To disappear completely?
Host: I don't know.
Bojan: Or just that, I don't know. To disappear completely?
Host: You disappear completely.
Bojan: No, this not.
Host: No.
Bojan: Just for a day or so, I took a creative break.
Host: Oh, good. It's not ghosting. Have you ever gone to a party with one girl and left with another?
Bojan: No. I go practically alone to parties almost always.
Host: And then home.
Bojan: Yes.
Host: Have you ever hit on a girlfriend's... one of your girlfriend's friends?
Bojan: No. Maybe after, when she was already... Not when we were together.
Host: Ok. What about one of your close friend's exes?
Bojan: That... no, homeboys, no, no, a homeboy is a true friend, I'd never do that in my life.
Host: Did you ever say you didn't have an STD and you did?
Bojan: God, no.
Host: And... You are probably a decent human being. Here's the proof. Live. Now no one can accuse you of being one... if anyone says anything to you.
Bojan: It's official! I'm not a fuckboy.
Host: Alright, that's it. Now, to finish, we have a couple of other unpopular opinions which I have chosen, and you will comment whether you agree or disagree, if you find it very stupid, or if there is any truth in it. First: people drink gin because it is fashionable.
Bojan: I think some people do enjoy gin. [But] I think it's disgusting, honestly. But I think some people find gin good.
Host: Ok, I agree too, because I find it good myself.
Bojan: Aha, ok.
Host: Star Wars is not really good.
Bojan: I'm not the right one to answer that, because I actually never watched it. I watched the old one a hundred years ago, they were pretty good.
Host: For those times. I mean, I'm not really interested, but maybe I'm...
Bojan: I've honestly never been drawn to Star Wars at all.
Host: Yes, I can understand why someone would think that. Pineapple on pizza?
Bojan: I haven't tried. But it looks and sounds disgusting to me.
Host: I've tried it, but it's not so bad. Although it's true that I ate it in America, where everything else was so bad that it wasn't so disgusting in comparison.
Bojan: Okay, fair. I think, if so many people eat it, it probably doesn't.
Host: Yes. Give it a try.
Bojan: I mean, there must be something to it.
Host: It's a bit sweet. Like in a Chinese restaurant, that sweet and sour...
Bojan: Yeah, I'm not exactly very... yeah, I don't think it would be good for me, but look, maybe, I mean, I'll give it a try sometime. I'll tell you.
Host: Please do. Here. Tinder themed. LinkedIn is a better choice for dating than Tinder.
Bojan: LinkedIn? Isn't that for business?
Host: Yes. Here someone thinks it's a better way to do things.
Bojan: I have no idea. No, I don't think so.
Host: Maybe you can find someone in your...

SLYTHERIN! ZEKE ★ masterlist.
part of the "hogwarts" series  ੈ♡‧₊˚ starting with the older characters first and going down the list <33
Tumblr media
when zeke got his Hogwarts letter, he was confused
confused because he had no idea he was even a wizard
the very last thing he expected to find out on his 11th birthday was that his dad was a wizard, and, oh yeah, before his mom died, she was a witch, too
so he's very cautious and doubtful about going to a magical boarding school, no matter how prestigious his dad keeps saying it is
who names their school Hogwarts anyway?
i don't even think zeke is 100% aware of the house prejudices until he gets sorted into Slytherin and realises the cute girl he met on the train no longer wants to go near him
but eventually as the years progress, zeke becomes less bothered by the people who actually care about what robes you wear and house you represent
and very quickly, everybody around him seems to follow suit
for zeke gains his own reputation very fast — and not for any of the reasons anyone expected
zeke is a little bit rude and sarcastic, which reminds whoever needs reminding of his house and how he ended up being sorted in Slytherin, but he's also very adaptable and enjoyable to be around, which is probably how everybody knows him, if not by face then almost certainly by name
he's theeee Hogwarts gossip; he knows everything about everyone and knows how to connect you to the people you need
want some magic mushrooms from Hufflepuff but got no friends in that house? dw, zeke knows a guy, and all you gotta do in return is tell zeke if that rumour is true or not 👀
definitely that Slytherin who younger students want to turn to for help or support
zeke has lost count how many times he's been forcibly dragged into petty arguments by the younger kids (although he loves the drama)
he's also that student who looks sooo much older than everybody else, which kind of automatically makes him an eccentric big brother figure to so many Slytherins
zeke doesn't give a single flying fuck about quidditch or other sports at Hogwarts, but you can guarantee he'll be up for a mean game of wizards chess against any student who dares ask
he's not even good at chess either — he always loses, especially against some of the major competitors in his year at Hogwarts like erwin or yelena
i don't believe he had a pet going to Hogwarts because his dad was like "i dont trust you" but later on when his lil brother gets a pet for his first year (not fair btw) zeke gets theeeee ugliest fattest toad possible just to spite everyone
but his frog kind of hates being essentially imprisoned in the Slytherin dungeons and so zeke ends up losing him somewhere
(one day he swims past the stained glass windows with the merpeople and zeke's just like…ok good for u)
his best class is actually ancient runes, though he's pretty good at muggle studies since his stepmom is a muggle and he was pretty much raised by her after his mama died and grisha got with carla a few yrs later
his patronus is a manx cat, though he kind of wanted a monkey since they're his favourite animals
when someone in Gryffindor puts up posters for a debate club, zeke is the first one there, stirring up drama and giving his thoughts
despite having his own very deep rooted opinions, zeke prefers to start an argument and let everybody else fight it 
he never wears his robes correctly and is always being told off for having his shirt untucked or collar undone
and even though he cares very little for quidditch, you can guarantee that zeke has somehow acquired a quidditch jumper just because they look good
is the number 1 umbridge irritator — if the weasley twins aren't giving her more grey hairs, then zeke is
he is a yapper and cannot shut up or back down from an argument, even if he doesn't even believe in the point he's arguing for
his least favourite subject is charms, but simply because it's boring and always drags on before the end of their classes for the day
he must ALWAYS read the daily prophet whilst having breakfast
once both he and eren received a joint howler once that zeke deliberately didn't open for weeks and weeks until he forgot about it and it opened itself in the middle of the night
he's probably that student who calls the professors by their first names and despite getting endless detentions, he just doesn't stop
contrary to popular belief, zeke loves the library at Hogwarts but why tf is it so dark? he's forever falling asleep in there and has to be woken up by the librarian or one of the many ghosts
has no idea what he wants to do once Hogwarts is over — he feels like there's three jobs for wizards and none of them appeal to him, but he's got a while to figure it out yet, bless him

MY OPINIONS ON DIFFERENT TOKOYAMI SHIPS!!!!
TokoTsuyu (Tokoyami x Asui)
• both animal based!!
•teamed up for that one thing of 1A against the teachers and was a good team
•saw a fanfic of these two on ao3 and it made me think of them two more!!
•I see Tsu as a lesbian mostly but none of their sexualities are confirmed (and let’s be real most of them are gonna be straight😰)
Overall: 4/10
BakuToko (Bakugou x Tokoyami)
•I saw a bunch of fics of these two and they were mostly all super good!!
•but y’all I hate bakugou’s character😓 (don’t send me death threats please and thanks!!)
•still though those fics changed my perspective on these ships
•also like super aggressive x super calm is a good trope!!
Overall: 5/10
TokoYama (Tokoyami x Aoyama)
•u guys i’m coming out as a tokoyama shipper!!! :((
•I LIVE for the trope of sun x moon
•also they have so many things in common!! like: both being insecure (I think), both having belly button quirks, both speaking in an unusual way (yuga speaking french and fumi being like gothic and stuff), and having a set aesthetic (yuga being bright and shiny while fumi’s all dark and broody)
•i’ve seen SO MANY cute fics of these two!! one of my personal favourites: Your Love Is Sunlight by Rainy_Day_Lemonade on AO3!!
•most birds are attracted to shiny things!! yuga is a very shiny thing!!
•I imagine yuga stealing fumi’s heart by first making dark shadow warming up to him!!
Overall: 10/10 (MY FAVOURITE MHA SHIP)
KuroYami (Kuroiro x Tokoyami)
•I don’t know much about this ship or kuroiro in general but he seems cool!!
•they’re both like dark-based or gothic!!
•I feel like it would take dark shadow a long time to warm up to kuroiro due to like him controlling him that one time?? I wouldn’t know I skipped past that scene :((
•also!! kuroiro canonically already has a crush and I don’t really like going against canon or anything!! (I like when my delusional mind can at least imagine my ships being possible)
•the opposite of opposites attract😥
Overall: 3/10
TokoKami (Tokoyami x Kaminari)
•i’ve seen like one fic of this and it was super good!!
•also I saw these fanmade mha tweets on tiktok by this person called Az who ships denki and fumi and it was so cute!! like: Denki: Tokoyami keeps giving me rocks what do I do??? (or something like that)
•I don’t know much about denki (or anyone other than fumikage and mina for that matter) but he seems like a good character!!
•I don’t see much of these two though :((
•another sun x moon trope?? maybe?? opposites attract?
•there’s official art of fumikage and denki sitting next to each other and stuff so :))
Overall: 4/10
TokoShoji (Tokoyami x Shoji)
•I had no idea what colour to do for Shoji so I just went blue :((
•anyways my heteromorph boys!!
•I don’t think of these two much but I keep seeing cute fanart of them on pinterest!!
•I think they’re friends in canon??!
•I feel like this would be a possibility like if any of these ships were to happen it’d be either TokoTsuyu or TokoShoji!!
•i’m so sorry but I did almost forget about Shoji entirely (I love the man I really do!! such a gentleman)
•not much to say but I like the height difference!! short x tall!!
Overall: 6/10
TokoJirou (Tokoyami x Jirou)
•this ship could also be a possibility in some far away universe!!
•they had a drama cd together about jirou being scared of ghosts while her and fumikage explored a haunted building of UA and she grabbed onto the hem of his shirt the whole time which was cool!
•they both have cool aesthetics!!
•both play guitar so they could do like duets together or something
•oh em gee I just thought of them doing a cover of that one song where it’s like “they’re only human they don’t see” or whatever!! (sorry y’all I barely know that song🤯🤯)
•I prefer either jirou x denki or jirou x momo but tokojirou is fantastic as well!!
•but I also have a slight grudge against jirou for personal reasons..(don’t kill me)
Overall: 6/10
TokoKoda (Tokoyami x Koda)
•both heteromorphs!!
•some people headcanon them as both autistic so that’s cool they can like sympathise with each other!!
•I headcanon fumikage to know sign language so if koda goes non verbal then they can communicate!!
•ALSO. animal based quirk x animal based human!!
•both of their favourite animals are probably birds and I love that
•BUT I don’t know much about koda enough and I don’t see much content of this ship :((
Overall: 3/10
I LOVE ALL SHIPS WITH TOKOYAMI REALLY (except for one..looking at you hawks x tokoyami😟😟) AS LONG AS THEYRE LEGAL AND HEALTHY!!

hi! I've been going through your blog and I love all your analyses, we may not agree on everything but it's definitely fun to read and eye-opening and I'm grateful to see someone looking into bsd with such depth and whipping out whole essays <3
On that note. There was a fan theory I read when dead apple came out (for the life of me I cannot remember the source, if anyone knows please tell me) that Atsushi's healing ability applies only to the injuries caused by other abilities, and he can't heal from non-ability things like guns etc. The op cited the scene in ch18 where Atsushi is caught in a shooting, and healed by Yosano in the next chapter.
This theory came about because 1) in dead apple, Shibusawa says that the tiger is "the antithesis to all abilities" and "the ability everyone desires." Then we never get the reason why Shibusawa was so obsessed with Atsushi. And 2) in ch7 after sskk's first encounter where Atsushi's leg is severed, Yosano takes a look and thinks "there's no scar, it's more of a restoration than a regeneration."
The gist of this is that I like the idea of Atsushi not being 100% invulnerable. And, if his is indeed the antithesis to all abilities then I'm excited to see what that entails; it implies that in the face of a time travel ability, he would be able to turn back time (if he knew how to use it ofc, cough Fukuchi fight cough). If the book is tied to an ability, Atsushi may be able to undo changes done by the book? he may also nullify Dazai's nullification? idk this opens many doors. Anyway! this is my fave bsd theory. I think, with how Akutagwa's ability sort of completes Atsushi's, and with the whole Rashomon being able to eat space, maybe with this development it will also "eat" a portion of the timeline, as in, undoing the events that occurred? is this making any sense? sorry for the rant I'd love to hear what u think, thanks <3
Hi!! Thank you for your kind words, they mean a lot!!! Could this be the post you were looking for? Funny enough, it was at the very top of my reblogs queue. Indeed, it's an extremely insightful theory!!!
So, there's a lot to unpack here. Ever since I've read that theory, I've found Yosano's thoughts regarding Atsushi's healing from chapter 7 extremely interesting. It's curious, because the nuance gets completely lost in the official English translation:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Raws → fantranslation → official Yen Press English translation). As you can see, the meaning gets totally lost in the last one. It almost makes me wonder if it was an intentional change due to the fact that the plot point won't be brought up in the manga in ten years (much like opting out of adapting the Steinbeck Guild uprising in the anime, since that plot point has been apparently discarded), but I hope that's not the case.
All taken into account, I don't think it's a stretch to say Atsushi's ability, due to his quality of denying other abilities, can only quickly regenerate as far as other abilities wounds go. When I was reading the manga I thought it was only plot convenience and suspension of disbelief, but taking a closer look perhaps the pattern of wounds not caused by abilities taking longer to heal isn't coincidental: it already happened with the wounds he suffered from in the orphanage, which ended up leaving scars (chapter 28), with the Guild's attack, which was of unknown nature but required Yosano's help to heal (chapter 18-19), with Twain's sniper attacks, which as the theory's Op point don't seem to have healed immediately (chapter 29). But in my opinion it's still too little instances to be able to affirm with certainty that it's not just coincidences dictated by plot convenience.
I do have a feeling there must be Something to Atsushi's ability. it can't just be tiger transformation and wounds regeneration. He's the protagonist, and leaving it at that, that's about the lamest ability of them all (sorry!! I love him still!!). I like the idea of Atsushi's ability being truly special, carrying qualities that have yet to be unfolded that make it different and somehow above the other abilities. I really think it'd be the most satisfying progression narrative wise, because so far Atsushi has gotten really little to claim for his protagonist role, being constantly overshadowed by Dazai; but he's the main character still, and it's like the story itself is waiting to reveal what makes him special. And there being something special to his ability has been, though subtly, consistently underlined: the extraordinary bounty on his head that nothing about what we know seems to explain, the fact that the Guild wanted to capture him specifically, the no further elaborated on fact that he's the key to finding the Book, Shibusawa's concern with him and, most importantly, the ability's quality of tearing through other abilities. Like, that feels very relevant; it's different from Dazai's nullification ability in the way it doesn't just temporarily nullify the other ability, but straight up denies it. I feel like in a manga that is so littered with meta commentary on literature, it'd be fitting to have an ability that denies other abilities' very existence, like moving an eraser through the page. It's certainly interesting to think about. And I like the concept of Atsushi's ability as an alternative to Dazai's nullification ability. Dazai has been feeling invulnerable so long, it would be gratifying to contemplate the existence of something that's outside of his sphere of influence, and potentially even more powerful and destructive than he is.
Again, there's already so many elements that make it impossible to ignore the uniqueness of Atsushi's ability; but even then, they're still so sparse and obscure it's really hard to take a guess on what it could really be about, or what is the reason why it's special. There's so much space for speculations - a connection with the book, a singularity, a God-like ability just to name a few -, but in my opinion none of them have any concrete enough canon basis to leave space for theories. I think I'd rather limit myself to say it would make a lot of sense for it to be an ability superior to other abilities, since it's something that has the power to tear through abilities themselves, and I believe that such quality is also coherent with its link to the Book as another ability-originated, extremely powerful object. The ability's power to rewrite reality, if only to a smaller extent compared to the Book, may further hint to its connection to the Book / being originated from the Book / sharing origins with the Book. When the ability immediately helps Atsushi regenerate from ability induced wounds he is lowkey rewriting the story to portray a reality where Atsushi wasn't hurt, and when he tears abilities apart it is lowkey rewriting a story where the ability didn't exist. In that, I believe it wouldn't be too far-fetched to draw similarities with the way the Book works. This also made me realize that where it's confirmed that the Book's altered reality to the point of changing the ada's memories so they remembered committing the terrorism crimes, I'm pretty sure that we never got the confirmation the same happened to Atsushi. Then, what if the book can't have effect on Atsushi due to his ability, but only on the reality surrounding him.
So yeah. I'm curious to see how this will unwrap, although I have my doubts I'll still be around when it does (man, the manga is going to take another six months just to catch up with the last anime episode, so you know). I really really like the concept of Atsushi's ability developing in a way that will make it more functional in a rematch against Fukuchi. I've been advocating for a sskk vs. Fukuchi rematch for years at this point, and it seems like we will indeed be getting it; and sskk BETTER win it this time, it wouldn't make any narrative sense to be otherwise. But to do that they'll have to overcome their biggest disadvantage that is Shintou Amenogozen's time manipulation, so you know!! Looking forward to see a sskk that is now mature and experienced unveil new skills to their abilities.

hey!! I was wondering what your favorite odesta fics are?
hey mia! thats a great question lol, usually i just rotate through the same three odesta fic writers and cross my fingers u guys update something soon, but i’ll try to mix it up!
1. by any other name by jajajaja. this one is just so sweet and cute. it’s also a Finnick Lives au so you already know it’s going to be a joy to read
2. voicemails from my love by jajajaja. another fic by the same author, and for good reason! this one is a modern au, which brings out the silly and carefree side of odesta even more, so i really like that. it’s also just such a fun and sweet (and cute) idea that i’ve never seen done before. i’d definitely check out this author if you haven’t already i think you’d really like their fics!! very domestic and sitcom-y depending on which ones u read, but there’s also fics with a healthy dosing of angst if that’s more your speed!! theyre doing it all and we love to see it
3. oslo by ongreenergrasses. we know em… we love em… it’s an odesta proposal fic by none other than the genius behind the sun persists in rising! (a fic rec within a fic rec… fic-ception). but i won’t get too into that since i know fs that you’ve read it. anyway, oslo is so good! i loved seeing how annie and finnick each reacted to the quell, it made the ending so bittersweet.
4. franka by ongreenergrasses. another fic by the same author, but i can’t help that my mutuals are so talented. but seriously, this has such a good and natural combination of angst and fluff. i know you don’t like reading smut, and usually i don’t either, but 1) this is literally an ongreenergrasses fic i had to give it a try… 2) i don’t really mind smut with these two since theres usually a lot of character analysis thrown in there 3) as the summary suggests, that’s not all that happens. so if you’re comfortable with that i definitely recommend that one to anyone that will listen
5. can you drink all my thoughts by mavilywavily. i like this one especially cos in my opinion it’s a more realistic spin on the whole odesta childhood friends to lovers trope
6. like a yellow sun by volcanicloves. this one has a special place in my heart because it’s a silly, fun hg au! like obviously i get why we don’t have very many of those but if you’re as obsessed with dcoms as i am, this lemonade mouth au is probably gonna be perfect for you. the main pairing is everlark but it does ft odesta (and annie being so so strong! go annie!!!)
7. moments of peace by ao_xxii. this is another one that features odesta, but it’s such a beautiful piece that i had to include it!! love it sm
8. It would be best by NezumiPi. god. this one has to be my favorite odesta fic yet. it’s another Finnick Lives au, and i really appreciate how the author portrays such a complicated and nuanced situation. 10/10 can’t recommend this one enough. like i’m pretty sure u already read it but tbh i think we all should just read it again

omg maybelle u mentioned you’ve read beast… do u have any thoughts/headcanons about the relationship between oda and aku in beast… whether in the context of sickness or not i am so desperate for beast oda crumbs you have no IDEAAAAA AHHHH ive imagined that beast aku’s chronic condition is quieter but more consistent than canon aku’s (which seems to be pretty severe, but only when it flares up? idk. maybe this is a dichotomy i made up in my head) and so i like to think oda is similarly quietly but consistently checking on aku all the time, making sure he’s not exerting himself too much, just kinda sitting with him and physically observing him and watching out for him… AHHH THATS HIS SON !!!
(sincerely the most normal oda fan of all time @s2reason-living smiley face emoji hiiii !!! i am going to be in your inbox ALL the time now. prepare yourself)
@s2reason-living you are welcome in my ask box ANY TIMEEE with these beautiful thoughts of yours...BEEEEAST!!!!! BEAST!!! RAHHHH I ALLLways have thoughts about Beast
I Really love the idea of Oda silently observing Akutagawa from a distance and only intervening when he needs to...he wants to give him space to learn how to navigate his life on his own with the help of the people he's surrounded by...Oda tries to gently remind him when he's skipped meals accidently or when he's exerting himself too much physically (since we know certain Rashomon forms do heavily impact BSD Akutagawa physically, I think Beast Akutagawa has a much healthier constitution than his counterpart but he's not quite at a normal level...Oda does make a comment in Beast about Akutagawa's lack of phsyical strength), but Akutagawa has such a hard time asking for help when he's injured or sick because he's never had the option to really rest and be taken care of before...Kunikida is hard on him about it but Oda has to remind him that it's a mindset Akutagawa has created out of the way he used to live and to be kinder to him....Akutagawa has such a deep respect for Oda in Beast that he doesn't have for anyone else and I think he holds his opinion very highly and tries not to disappoint him, and he's always stuck between "Should I tell him I'm sick/injured or should I push forward so that they'll think I'm stronger than I used to be"🥺
And I'm SO TORN about Beast Akutagawa's lung situation because part of me is like he doesn't have it but he does still occasionally cough and cover his mouth in Beast but very very rarely...so I like to imagine it's more of a chronic condition because of his sickly constitution added with growing up in extreme poverty, than something terminal like BSD Akutagawa's (or maybe it is terminal and just not as progressed....who knows) but anyways this is something Oda has picked up on and is very concerned about and regularly asking Yosano to help him keep an eye out on his condition
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I also really love the concept of Oda repeatedly asking Akutagawa to watch his children when he's out of town lol and I have this little idea in my head that he has a bad fever one time while he's watching them but he refuses to back down and tries anyway...Oda comes back and finds Akutagawa super out of it, curled up and shivering in one of the bunk beds and the older kids are like help what can we do for him😭😭😭😭 Akutagawa coming in and out of it, totally delirious and mistaking some of the kids for friends he lost in the slums (fun fact many of Odas kids share very similar names to Akutagawa's dead friends...Sakura/Sayaka, Katsume/Katsumi, Yuu/Yuji, Shinji/Shinya)...working himself up to the point of tears and not being able to breathe and Oda comforting him and staying with him until he's more himself im gonna lose it
I'm so sorry this was so long I love beast Akutagawa I could talk about him all day all night please send me more

Heyo so u wanted to come if on anon for a while now but also wanted to have another headcanon or idea to share when I do, but I think I’m pretty taped out for new ideas.
Anyway here I am surprise 🎉
I still regularly check out your page and I always enjoy seeing the new posts and responses plus any updates to the chaos horde au.
Also I know I said I’m out of things to share at this moment but I did have one small thing for my new favourite of Tiktik;
I remember a post about goblins having very strong opinions on fashion and the idea that once they find a look they like they stick with it and go full force with it.
So Tiktik decides to stay in elmville for a while just to visit the gang, particular her pretty cleric and see how they just generally live their lives etc.
Part of this is going to a mall or clothing store to get her solace appropriate clothing. My initial thought was to Tiktik was going full goth mode since she’s used to wearing dark clothing anyway like most goblins do to blend in with shadows and night and I imagine her loving the intricate shiny jewellery, studs and spikes she can add.
But then I thought hang on, for the first time in her life she doesn’t have to worry about camouflage or standing out to much or she’ll possibly be eaten, and now has access unlimited to all these new and exciting clothes (Fabian offered to buy her anything she wanted and get it tailored to her size later, he claims it’s just a welcome gift but secretly it’s more of a thank you for helping get me and Riz together gift).
So she goes for the brightest most gaudy clothes she can find, I’m talking rainbow leggings, several different kinds of bright plastic bracelets on each arm and necklaces along with the loudest patterned shirts and skirt/shorts anyone’s ever seen.
She comes out of the dressing room and while everyone saw the clothes she picked out it’s still a shock to actually see it all together and before anyone can say anything to try and talk her out of her fashion choices, Kristen does her best impression of a suggestive/impressed goblin growl genuinely finding the outfit she’s wearing to be HOT (she wears tie dye and a yellow tracksuit, her fashion sense aren’t the best).
Also thing honestly was only meant to be a small thing but it kinda got away from me 😅
Xx
God i love it so much but also AHHH HI <3
The goblins up in the mountains actually have fairly nice clothing. They might not have cotton, but they have a kind of silk harvested from creatures they farm in the darkness of their caves. Very strong and rip-proof so it can withstand their claws and it feels wonderful against your skin. Adventurers used to find bolts of the silk in goblin caves and attributed it to them stealing it from elven settlements.
The stereotype of a goblin wearing threadbare rags is only because adventurers were constantly encountering them after destroying their homes and trying to exterminate them. Textile arts take time and if you're constantly running for your life and moving you dont have time to make any new outfits. It gets put on the backburner even more so if your species doesnt have much of a taboo about nudity.
Its almost always dyed mostly greens and dark browns so their camoflage doesnt get disrupted too badly but it's all tailored to fit well, and tight, so it doesnt get snagged on anything.
Other than the silks they'll usually also have leather clothing. There's plenty of it to go around since they hunt for 99% of their food so its usually what smaller kits wear since they'll grow out of it fast.
Tiktik comes to Solace and there's just SO MANY different fabrics and colours, so she spends hours just wandering around a store running her hands over things to test how they feel (some of the textures are repulsive and Riz agrees). She finds some stuff she likes and goes a little wild on the colour choices ands up stepping out of the changing room and its just like
Tumblr media
Riz is kindof glad he's wearing light-filtering glasses.

Hi! I've got a question that I would like ur opinion on. A kind of post-canon ash lives au meta/hc concerning the manga timeline (so this is thru out the 80s and 90s). Say ash lives, do u think he would have a lot of internalized homophobia concerning the nature of his abuse (like thinking ALL gay ppl are predators, worrying that since he himself is mlm he's just like/will turn into his abusers, etc.)? OBVIOUSLY he would have a lot of Generic internalized homophobia bc We Live In A Society. I haven't read the main manga, but I have read angel eyes so I know that ash knows that rape/abuse is about power more than anything else, so I'm curious if he would actually struggle with the aforementioned internalized stuff, since from that remark he seems (to me, at least) to understand that gay =/= child abuser. I keep flipping back and forth between the two, because I think on one hand it's an interesting idea to explore if he DOES struggle with that, but on the other hand I want to adhere to canon ash as much as possible. Anyway, sorry this is so ramble-y (sp?) I'm just curious on what u think lol
I could definitely see an argument for it either way, but personally I don't think that Ash would really have that conflation between gay men and abuse, at least not in adulthood after meeting Eiji. For one thing, it's mentioned in Private Opinion that Ash has actually been abused by women as well. Besides that though, I think you're right to bring up Angel Eyes and how, even at the age of fifteen, Ash already understands that abuse is about power, not sex.
I do think that Ash might worry about repeating cycles of abuse -- with Eiji, with Michael, and anyone else he views as "vulnerable" (correctly or otherwise), especially as he grows older. But I don't think that this would be as tied into his bi identity as just into his overall view of himself, if that makes sense? He's seen himself kill hundreds of people, so he knows he's capable of horrible things. He's seen people he loves get hurt or die "because" of him. I think it would take a long time for Ash to learn to trust himself at all, you know? But I don't personally think that him being bi or mlm would heavily impact that.
That's not to say that it's not worth exploring still! This is just my personal interpretation based on canon and my own thoughts, but if you read this and decide that you still think it would be worth exploring with his character for any reason, you should! I don't think that it's a "wrong" interpretation at all, just not one that I personally think is likely to play out, you know?

okay so this is a thing about shifting that keeps me up at night
this is kinda existential ngl
anyway,, i had the idea of shifting to a BBC Ghosts (tv show if u haven’t heard of it) DR where I am one of the ghosts. it got me thinking,, that couldn’t possibly be feasible because that’d mean i was dead,, which therefore confirms the existence of ghosts as a part of the afterlife. or does the afterlife differ from reality to reality. kinda like anyone who shifts to supernatural or percy jackson or anything that involves religious figures or demons n stuffs,,, does that mean that heaven and hell or God(s) exists in those realities without question? does that mean that the greek gods actually exist in all realities or just those specific realities. do realities that contain angels and devils confirm the existence of God throughout every reality or just some realities. in that case, why are the existences of entire Gods confined to different realities (or not). referring back to the Ghosts DR,, if i managed to shift as a ghost, what would happen to me if i moved on. would my consciousness/awareness be evaporated with that reality or would my awareness return to my CR or a completely new random reality. if so, does that then also confirm the idea that when we die our consciousness shifts to a random reality and that’s why our CR feels so random and ‘boring’ in comparison to our DR??? then what about zombie apocalypse DRs,, if you forget to script that you don’t get turned what happens if u get bitten and become a zombie. you would technically be dead, so would you shift to a random reality or back to ur CR,, or would you remain trapped in the brain of a rotting corpse because you’re still ‘alive’ in a sense.
i believe in shifting whole heartedly, but there’s things like this that make me concerned that we all don’t fully understand what we’re doing when we shift. what kind of information it unlocks.
idk, kind of a long shot and everything i just wrote hardly makes sense but maybe you have some thoughts about it
in my own personal opinion i believe that every reality has a different afterlife, some may be similar to each other while others might be completely different and with zero similarities or connections. so again, as in my opinion, gods of this reality exist only here (if you believe in them ofc) and so goes on for every reality. this explains why you can shift to be a god or an entity like demon or angel and so on.
but i believe in the consciousness theory therefore i think that we created everything of this reality and others, so in this case deities too. you know, i practice witchcraft and do deity work with lucifer and anubis (while keeping contact with also loki, hermes and leviathan) and i always thought about them as higher beings but after having this spiritual awakening i realised that we created everything, so technically we created deities too, because they’re a part of this reality (which we, again, created). i’m not disrespecting any deity! i still believe in them and respect them so much. it’s just that this is pretty trippy so idk how to describe it, i hope you understand.
to answer your question i think that if you moved on as a ghost you would either shift to a different reality or be whole with the universe. i never thought of this before but i don’t think consciousness can “evaporate” or simply stop existing. and for the zombie example i think that you would simply be conscious of being a zombie.
i hope this was exhaustive 🎄

top 5 apex characters and any thoughts or opinions on them?
hey anon yeah i love you also i am about to be so annoying i might need to hide this under a "read more" (future me here. yeah i did)
1. Crypto (obviously)
- everything about him (besides current lore 😒) is perfect to me i love backstories that include a wanted criminal aspect and the fact he is wanted but innocent just adds so much more flavor & i think the whole "to break the game i must do it from the inside" idea is badass. i also love all the familial themes surrounding his backstory i love that for the most part he is a cold and calculated person but despite being jaded due to all the misfortune that happened to him in life he still cares about his family and the few people he allowed to get closer to him, that he still has the capability to do that in the first place even when it has hurt him before.
- i love the whole crypto is just a protective mask to hide tae joon park and i like to treat them as 2 separate people. my gripe is that i wish we learned more about tae joon park, but i also sorta like that it leaves room for fans to interpret who tae joon park is on their own. from the very small bits & pieces it does seem like tae joon park is an overall softer more caring & trusting person compared to the closed off, on edge person that is crypto and it makes me all emo that all the unlucky shit that happened to him in life caused him to resort to being coldhearted and distrustful even when (i personally think) he doesnt want to
- also his design fucking rips idc. maybe im just a big jacket enjoyer but its so fun, it makes sense for his personality and the cybernetics ARE SOOOOO FREAKING GNARLY they r both sexy and lore important i love it
- for issues the most obvious one is FORCING A CHEMISTRYLESS ROMANCE BETWEEN HIM AND YOU KNOW WHO. i FUCKING HATE that they have written such an intriguing backstory for him & DONT DO ANYTHING WITH IT WITHOUT IT HAVING TO INCLUDE WATTSON. i hate how they cannot be their own separate characters and have to always have their stories intertwined in some way its like the writers are allergic to making them hang out with literally anyone else. kill code as boring as it was came so fucking close to that but the recent radio play had to ruin it because of course. of fucking course.
- i also hate the completely unnecessary age retcon. i hate that it frames him as a supergenius computer whiz at a young age. he was so much more likeable & easier to sympathize with as a completely normal office worker that just wanted to provide for him & his sister, only for it to bite him in the ass when he did literally nothing to deserve it. i hate having yet another character in their early 20s in this already oversaturated age range in media as a whole.
- i hate that with every lore update hes involved in it just further mutilates his character. i hate that i cant be excited when my FAVORITE CHARACTER gets lore attention because it just provides more opportunity for the writers to stomp on him. they dont care about him as his own character. they care about him in regards to the relationships he has with other people. thats not how u write a compelling, likeable, or realistic bond between people. it makes me so mad i wanna SCREAM
- anyway crypto tae joon park is my pookie bear he is autistic and he likes dragons and cats and kpop and elliott and being a good friend to the point of sacrificing himself i like him normally also he is my oc now
2. Mirage (obviously)
- mirage is just an objectively likeable character truly like there is a reason he is essentially the face of apex. he was my first favorite & for good reason. u get lured in with his endearing goofiness & then get smacked in the face with one of the most tragic and completely undeserved backstories. maybe im just a slut for characters that "wear masks" & have completely polarizing versions of themselves as a self preservation tactic because i love Mirage being the self absorbed, smooth, attention-seeking bastard on screen and i love love LOVE Elliott Witt with his crippling fear of loneliness and inferiority complex, slowly losing the things that mattered most in his life and feeling like it was somehow his fault & he deserves it
- but i dislike the flanderization hes facing in current lore. i dont remember the last time he was anything other than the goofy guy with a stutter that cant take things seriously. that old comic of him losing his friends because of his own douchebaggery & working to fix his wrongs is my prized possession. he is hurt & lonely & it causes him to lash out on people that dont deserve it and i wish they explored that more. i desperately need more asshole mirage in my life. nowadays he just feels like the one-note silly character whos only purpose is to fill in the comic relief role.
- also he has some of the worst fans ive ever seen im sorry they were like the main reason he stopped being my favorite. they baby him like he has never done nothing wrong in his entire life & in turn shit on characters like wraith or vantage bc they were "mean to him." as if he isnt capable of being an asshole, as if there isnt an entire comic dedicated to him being an asshole. i also hate that fans either lean in 100% into his mirage personality or 100% into his elliott witt personality. he is either a loudmouthed egotistical slut or an innocent wittle mamas boy that needs to be protected at all times never anything outside or in between and it drives me insane.
- shes still my sweetie pie. my biggest kin. i love writing him sooo much. i want to chew him. i want to set him on fire. i want to tuck him in and give him a forehead kiss before he goes to bed.
coughs anyway now with all that out of the way
3. Conduit
- im filipino of course im gonna be biased but hellooooo she is also just so likeable it is insane!! a sweet, goofy fangirl we can relate to that is literally killing herself just to provide for her family ouch it hurts GIVE ME MORE. all her little easter eggs and her fun voicelines like the devs really really loved & cherished her & it shows & she deserves it! my main issue is that it is literally her season rn yet all they care about is revenant Revenant REVENANT give me more conduit! what is her story with her family? hows her sister in particular holding up? how does she cope with her illness? will she ever open up about it to any of the legends? are they ever going to try to help her? is crypto gonna help find her a cure like he did caustic & then they kiss
4. Lifeline
- love her. love her personality. a medic that also isnt afraid to get her hands dirty & chew ppl out? love that for her. i also like where the current lore has been taking her (me? liking current lore? what a shocker), the fact that she was willing to destroy one of her strongest & longest bonds to defeat a greater evil? BANGER. she hurt people & she made sacrifices to get to this point but what does she get from it? a best friend that doesnt want to speak to her & a whole fucking army of murderous robots that want her dead. i wonder if shell have a "is this really what i wanted? did i just fuck everything up?" internal crisis cuz atp i feel like she has to. id love to see it
- also i am no.1 lifeline defender idgaf the demonization shes facing in the fandom for hurting their pookie wookie bear octane is so blatant and laughable u ppl really hate black women. its ok for ur favorite male character to make questionable morally gray decisions but got forbid ajay does it. gtfo of here!
5. Rampart
- just another objectively likeable character plsss she is sooo funny & sassy and there is not a single rampart interaction/relationship she has with another legend that i hate. she also has the biggest wasted potential ever. they were cooking something so good with big sister and ramparts relation to her & NEVER DO ANYTHING WITH JT. its been 13 seasons and nothing has progressed in her lore and its so so sad. she needs a focus season soon. u dont just drop a fun character with an intriguing backstory and just ditch it.
look im not going to read this back to fix things around if it seems disjointed with a lack of direction IDCCCC i am cringe and free!

hiiiiii how are youuu
sorry I genuinely don't understand what taylor is doing??
Like, this is such a bad pr move that it's basically impossible that it's a pr relationship imo
which means it's real which is way worse???
how is her pr team letting her associate herself so publicly with someone like that. maybe she just knows that she's so big rn that she can do basically whatever she wants and many people will still support her??
I know taylor isn't perfect by any stretch, but until now i genuinely thought she was generally a good person, even though she lives in her extremely privileged bubble.
every time she said she was an ally or that she cared about people or she seemed a sweet and caring person etc, i didn't think it was fake (even when she failed to follow through with all the promises she made in miss americana but that's a whole other can of worms)
but now I'm wondering if it was fake?? maybe this is a bit too parasocial, and I'm fully aware none of us really know her, but all of us have an idea of her in our heads, and the one I had in mine just... would not date someone like matty healy. especially since she's a smart grown woman and not a naive young kid.
that's why I'm also genuinely worried about how many people (in my experience mainly young US swifties) put her on a pedestal, say they will always love her no matter what, think she's absolutely perfect and can do no wrong.
obviously it's okay to support people and be their fans and that almost always means idealizing them at least a bit, but blind faith like that is dangerous imo.
anyway sorry for ranting, I'm just upset and confused.
hope you have a good day!!
hi anon i’m ok how r u? i agree with all of this tbh. i have no idea what’s going on with her and between those two but i have a right to be hurt by it and to speak up on it. especially being apart of a community he’s made fun of or laughed at. ya and after everything she said she would do when miss americana released and the man and yntcd being released and i can’t remember the last time she’s spoken up abt something since the lover era. i understand she’s attracted to him, for some odd reason, but how can she be ok with what he’s done? and the things he has said that has hurt her own fans? and so many minorities?? and be ok with it? and her team being ok with it? people say we shouldn’t talk abt it cause it won’t do anything or we don’t even know her but idc! let me say my opinion! if u were hurt by him u would do the same! it’s just so annoying how people think we shouldn’t say anything. like shut up fr. ofc i still love her and i’m still going to her show, but this hurts so fucking much that i’m confused on what to do and i’m confused on what she’s doing. even if they break up, this decision of hers will forever hurt us. and her ignoring everything hurts a lot too.
and it’s ok that u ranted! i appreciate that u felt comfortable enough to put it in my inbox!!! never hesitate to message me or send an ask abt anything i will always listen to anyone’s rants. i will try my best to reply to everything u say <3

So!! bathing/hygiene headcanons!! 🚿 this is a "me rambling endlessly" post, just as a warning !
I was in the shower earlier yes? as one does. and I was just thinking.... about like.... Artemis, yeah. But I was thinking about how, he probably doesn't have to shower or anything necessarily? Because he's not a living creature, and so, doesn't have to worry about like... everyday buildup of human-y dirtiness (idk how to phrase that but u kno).
But at the same time, especially if he's been really busy with shop cleaning/work, has had to fight/kill something/someone, or has been out and about on his 'business trips' or something etcetcetc-- like... he's gotta get dirty sometimes.. right? even with how careful he is not to, I dont think it would matter. He'd have to clean up sometime, somehow. And I suppose... like.... if he did, it would be infrequently, "bathing", whatever that entails for him (he again like... its just another one of those things he doesn't have to worry about doing often, as its not as if ?? he's gonna get stinky like a human would).
But anyway I was just thinking about bathing / cleaning headcanon for him ?? and I came up with like... two alternatives. 1... was that he could just sponge down, genuinely just take a bathtub full of water, remove necessary clothes, clean dirty area(s) and be done with it, never needing to fully submerge unless absolutely necessary or if its just easier, depending on the level of filth he somehow found himself in for some reason. 2... second one was a little different? but involves his tar and personal abilities directly! He has the ability to manipulate his tar, yes? as well as the ability to heat it up to incredible temperatures (demonic skills yea?). So if he really wanted, he could just.... burn it.. all off ?? if thats any easier. Though, because he's more inclined to be careful not to damage his bones (and although he can remove them, he would never remove the skull. so fact remains, he'd risk fracturing the bone with the heat I suppose, unless magically protected somehow ...Which is.... possible. and likely, for everyday reasons).
But say he did that for the bones, yes? Say maybe, he goes to the basement(dungeon.... its a dungeon) and goes into one of those sealed rooms no one is allowed access to-- he could have this charm that protects the bones from the heat, and because he's somewhere that yknow.... wont burn down (stone and all yeah?) he can just let er rip ?? remove clothes to be cleaned and incinerate any trace of dirt via molten tar >:] ! which is cooler an idea than the sponging off one and also entirely plausible (given it.... would potentially be more thorough and faster).
The sponge bath could have scents added to it just as an additional nice little thing... which is likely. I feel like he'd get badru or the whispers' opinion on scent choice fjdjffgdf if any fragrance at all, it'd be very.... very faint. maybe a little dab of cologne?? but unlikely.
As for turning his tar completely molten in the safety of the dungeon-- jfdjjds i can't imagine he'd smell... particularly good after that.. (but also maybe not too BAD once he cools down?), but he probably would smell some kinda way, even if just very faintly. he'd also?? probably be just a little warmer than he usually is, potentially noticeably so, for just a little while after. and the floor?? surrounding areas of where he did it would probably be nice and toasty
gjfgjfd catch someone asking Artemis if he has heated flooring tho after he does and he just ''.....no.''
+ also ?? a thought but like..... man could walk around without clothes and would not be embarrassed about it bc of ''nakedness'' necessarily. he'd be a little embarrassed to have been seen without clothes I think, if only because its like.... "indecent". yknow. his whole Old Victorian Gentleman vibe just OUT the WINDOW... he /has/ nothing to hide so it wouldn't MATTER if anyone saw him mid-change or post bath or something but he'd be BIG :(( about it LOL

(Heyo, ignore this if it's weird/not relevant/whatevs, no problem!) I saw you're nb and love WX, so I thought I'd ask: what's your opinion on doing nonbinary characters in historical fiction? Like, for someone like WX whose pronouns are they/them, but like...as far as I can find, that's just a modern thing (identifying w/ those specific pronouns i mean, not being nb in general, obviously). So, like, how would an author write an nb character like WX and avoid misgendering them when nobody knew about "pronouns" (as in they/them, ze/zir, etc) in 1921? Do you have any ideas?
sorry this is a bit late HAHA but thank u for the question! umm im not totally sure to be honest! i feel like theres not much of a loophole you can use, least not to my knowledge? honestly if i were in your shoes i would probably just use the correct pronouns anyways since it is still just fiction after all and something so minuscule doesn't matter. or if youre really keen on being accurate and want to avoid misgendering you could try and just not refer to them with pronouns at all and just use their name? that sounds tedious though, but im no writer. if anyone else has a better answer feel free to leave one below im sure theyd appreciate it. hope you figure it out!

hi hello hi!!
I wanted to ask you like a question that may be a bit uncomfortable for you but I wanna put it with as honestly and sensitively as I can. Anyways, I have friends or moots who I strongly disagree with different stuff in. Even people I just follow on tumblr without them knowing i'm something and I wanted to ask how do you handle discourse in stuff like f1 or any topic in general? do you feel put down when someone specific's opinion matters to you and do you hold back on your own opinions? It's completely fine if you don't want to answer or feel uncomfortable btw. it's just that I want to keep in touch with my moots and you have a good relationship with yours and I want to handle things with grace instead of blocking people or unfollowing when I feel like I'm starting to lose interest just because someone has one (or two) different opinions. And because I hold them in high regard their opinions kinda matter more than just anyone. It's not like they take jabs at me but things I take interest in for example and they do it with a great hatred and sports is definitley subjective, it's only when sometimes I feel like my opinions should be held back because these people suddenly feel like they don't see eye to eye with me and eventually lose interest. Or maybe I just overthink things and sports and other stuff will always have discourse (?) again, you don't have to answer it if you feel uncomfy but I hope you're well! 💓
omg okay wow! before anything else i wanna say i feel so touched that you thought to come to me for advice because trust mee i’m privy to acting on impulse a lot… but besides that
you’re right—discourse exists everywhere. especially in the age of social media where everyone shares their opinions online and sometimes very cuttingly, it’d be so difficult to avoid discourse/debate at all costs even if we try! i know it’s sometimes difficult to try and maintain a balance between keeping relationships and holding our own truths sacred and i don’t think either should be sacrificed right off the bat.
it really all boils down to your and your friends’ ability to hash these things out and uphold respect. i’m friends with some people who take sports seriously and support teams i don’t/vice versa. banter’s all well and good but if ever i get genuinely irritated or i feel like they’re doing too much i either 1. trust myself to just tune it out and not take it so seriously or 2. trust them to tone it down if i tell them so. so while i agree everything is subjective and discourse is inevitable, i know (and you should know too) that this fact should never be a greenlight for ‘friends’ to very loudly shit on things u enjoy! don’t fret love, you will find better circles to converse with and better people to exchange ideas with—even in disagreement.

hi !!! im happy to see ur response n dw about taking ur time school has just started for me too so i dont anticipate being too free myself!! btw i loved ur izuki hes very cute regardless ^O^ im gonna reply kinda out of order hope its ok!! also dw at all i feel ur personally very insightful too n as for writing u shdnt avoid ur personal taste n opinions !!
i think since u know what direction u want u shd definitely lean into this angle of having a morally grey villain or someone who portrays them as such or may not even be aware of either extent or their morality! either ways its a rlly good thing to know what u want and how u want to express ideas!! ^W^ no matter what type of writing clarity is important
also mm yea personally i dont read a lot of stories w villains i realised? i like tokusatsu where theres a lot clearer good vs bad but i havent watched a lot of the recent entries w more moral ambiguity so i couldnt offer much on a personal front. i guess i like them because theyre evil n nasty n interesting sometimes n like also i like magneto too!! :D i find i pesonally agree w his ideas but i also think how different writers portray magneto, his beliefs, background and try to skew them rlly reflects interestingly on how they view the ideas he represents, just off topic but neat stuff.
although i do think yea in writing n commentary villains can serve actually a rlly important role in reflecting peoples opinions, biases ect. back on them ah but thats getting off topic
in response about the enemies to friendsish thing actually i encountered the same issue!!! :DDD albeit it was cough a knb ship (i dont think anyone knows what it is) so if i may offer my personal insight i think having obv similarities always works. for me i found my two characters were more similar than theyd liked to admit but when in their usual environments surrounded by their peers they were super unlikely to interact so i put them in a different environment! sometimes what u need is smth to kickstart their interest in each other! an encounter that exposes smth worth talking about. like for me the more villainous character realises the more "heroic" character is actually more than a boring farce n finds an opportunity to corrupt him n the heroic character wants to resist this but himself returns because of the villains intelligence n their similar points. it leads them to enter a sort of cat n mouse game into each others minds. but thats cuz my characters i was working w were more intellectual
BUTTT the gist is basically ur allowed to do a little deus ex machina or have smth thats out of their control give them the opportunity to choose to interact n stuff. not all the time ofc important advancements n influence shd be made frm autonomous actions of the characters but a little coincidence never hurts!
ive briefly dipped my toes in writing before but ive never had enough clarity to write anything good tbh!! but i do like helping others edit if i can!!
anyways it means so much that i can give u something to chew on tbh!! ^w^ ur inquisitive nature is lovely! also yes itll always be okay to pop in !!
hi lab!!!! how r u!!!! thank u for this reply!!!! 
i for sure get that about liking clearer bad/evil characters!! i really can’t think of any i also don’t read a lot of villain stories i realize! but for knb hanamiya is so hard for me to look away from he’s so funny and i really wanna know why he’s the way he is dhjdshfj. magneto!!!! love that ur a comic fan!!!!! my last url was eriklehnsherrgf hes the best heh. ooo that’s really interesting about different ways writers portray him and his beliefs representing their own views… i also think our writing and thoughts on characters and which we’re drawn to and which we dislike can reflect a lot, especially biases. i really like talking about it; why myself and others are drawn to certain characters and dislike others… what do we find in them and what are we looking for. and our own art we create is so often a self-portrait, right?
a knb ship oooooo! are you writing a fic for them? so u ARE a writer!!!!! or a future writer!!! fdjfdfgjh but that sounds so cool lab! i really like the detail about how in their usual environments w friends they’re unlikely to interact despite being quite similar… i don’t know how to articulate it but i really find this interesting in fiction/media… two people who could have a close relationship if they were just to go outside of their usual environment, and the significant role being surrounded by their peers in said environment plays. and then something pushes them out of the familiar, often by force, and our story begins, right? i love the “an encounter that exposes something worth talking about” line, so lovely. something worth talking about!
much of it is about change, and putting your characters in situations that force change, and thus character development? it’ll be fun to see what the new situation/environment brings out in your characters, what they bring out in one another when they’re finally able to interact alone. i wonder if there are things only the other person can bring out in themselves. 
i love characters seeing one another in a different light, realizing there's more to the person they disliked then originally thought. ESPECIALLY when its the more villainous character seeing something that draws them into their heroic counterpart. OO THE OPPORTUNITY TO CORRUPT HIM im getting nervous nd excited!! so theres a unignorable interest there on the villianous characters side!! i wonder what makes them want to corrupt the “heroic” character!! a more sort of twisted, self-interested and self-indulgent desire to bring out something darker in them or more genuine interest in the heroic character.. or both or something else?… hm!!!!
wait wait is one of them hanamiya? the intelligence and want to corrupt part made me think of him. teppei and hanamiya? dfjhjsdf anyways u dont need to tell me anything this just sounds so so cool and i love how deeply and intentionally you’ve thought about their relationship. thank you for sharing your plans with me, really wonderful and im excited for how it comes along!!!!
yeah!!!! you've given me a lot to think ab!! giving them a little push to interact.....
really love talking with u, i genuinely feel like i learn a lot from you wow. as always, thank you for your thoughts and kind words!!! and thank you for your encouragement ab my work!!! always value your feedback and opinion on things, you’re so very articulate and open-minded. 
i hope u’ve had/have a good day!!!! 🌟💌
