Ok Loop nation as much as it makes sense for Odile to be the one to clock loop as being a clone, I feel like it would be Mirabelle. Like I feel like she would be the one to have enough genre savviness to be like “ oh, you’re like a time clone or something right?”  like she might be an anxiety creature who would sooner die than trust her own judgment but you know she’s absolutely read about time loop stories before.

like she is very geared to view the world through a somewhat narrative perspective and narratively Loop being Siffrin is the most obvious thing ever to be written

I just want one ONE fic where they have the whole dramatic reveal of Loop’s identity and Mira is just like “Wait did we not already know this?”

Like the whole time she was just like “oh they’re probably Siffrin but they chose the new name and stuff so I don’t want to be rude”

Two so far:

“but YOU’RE the doctor!” “Oh, I don’t look like him.”

*reads his old diary*

*wears a tall, lumpy hat*

*murders some daleks*

*that grin. you know the one*

I support him in all his endeavours. 💛

I think every moment is eternal in its own right and we hold no authority to deny it that status. Even if it is a forever that will escape our memories, it’ll still exist as a forever in the history of time. In the memories of no-one but the Earth itself. In the records kept and made by no-one, where everything is stored for all time to come. No love is lost and no existence truly unacknowledged.

pretty far into the game now and really my actual crit of the game is that this is the third game in the series w a dialogue wheel and they STILL don’t have it locked down 😭 they need to just use the branching paths logo way more bc countless times i’ve gone “tell a joke, rook!” and then rook did not in fact tell a joke 🧍🏻‍♀️

I made an elfin paper earring display partially for a joke but I kind of love it now…..

I’m not going to reblog the post itself because I don’t want that behavior on my blog, but oh my god I just saw a post about “looking for fics about your favorite character on ao3” and good lord the amount of bad takes both in that post and in the notes?? I have to just ramble about this for a moment because oh my god. it was ludicrous.

people were complaining that, and get this, unfinished fics exist. and that if you read an unfinished fic you’ll have to, get this, wait to read more until it’s published next. they were allll up in arms that there’s fics for a character that don’t cater to their specific interests. that they involve other characters and either do/don’t put them in a romantic relationship when they want the opposite for the character.

like at this point, most of you people in the notes on that post are 1) just being mean and condescending about FREE WORKS you can, may I remind you, READ FOR FREE and EXIT at ANY time! if you don’t like it!, don’t read it!, it’s so simple!, and 2) straight up do not know how ao3 works lmao

like I saw soooo many people in the notes complaining about a certain ship, dynamic, tag, etc, and like… y’all know you can filter by romantic vs platonic pairings, by ratings, by excluding certain tags or other qualifiers, etc etc etc… you know about ao3’s actually incredibly usable filtering and searching system… right… right??

at this point I’m just convinced a lot of these people are spoiled by large fandoms with 100k+ works for their characters and have decided to just be mean and condescending for no reason on main, about literally free fan works you can read for free any time that people spend hours and hours pouring their free time into out of sheer love for their craft. cuckoo bananas behavior if you ask me 🫠

I was legit so close to commenting that maybe they should try shipping two characters with <10 fics, with 0 fics, try liking a rare pair, try hyperfocusing on a character or niche type of fandom with a tiny but lovely circle of fans, and stop treating fan works and fic as Content TM that they deserve to have handed to them that caters to exactly what they want for free and maybe they’ll calm down lmao

like y’all aren’t cool you’re just being mean. we fundamentally approach fic in wildly different ways and honestly the way you do sounds exhausting. literally could not be me, I’m to busy finding joy in shared love for characters and not flipping the table in a rage because there’s one (1) element of the fic that isn’t specifically catered to me, maybe try that and you’ll feel better, hmm?

and yeah I’m aware that last sentence is me being condescending towards them, but frankly it’s warranted when so many people are being that mean and haughty for no reason lmao but truly those takes were horrific. fellow fic writers and even fellow fic readers I interact with, am mutuals with, authors whose works I read, readers who comment and interact with my works, fans of niche fandom subsets that run in the same circles as me— I hope you know this is so wildly not how I approach fics, I love just finding fics for my characters and forming these lil communities where we share our interests and love for them and hype each other up. I love what we have in these fandom niches and I hope you know I would never dream of being so mean and condescending towards y’all. fic writers and readers and fan communities are so special and I cherish it even if clearly there’s people in the notes on that other post who don’t know how to do that lmao. I love your unfinished WIPs, I love your fics that may only partially be what I’m looking for, I love when you write characters in a way I wouldn’t expect but shows your love for your particular headcanon, I love the variety and diversity and variance in fic. I love us. genuinely. fic writer moots I am hugging all of you and I frequently reread your works, even the unfinished ones. ♡

I'm glad to see some Willow stuff on your feed, even if it's just in a fluff-appreciation way. Willow was one of the movies that was on consistently through my childhood and I cannot express how deep my love is for it. Seeing these queer characters in the show makes me so happy. Truly, it has become my new comfort show that I play in the background simply because it makes me smile and I want it to get another season. It's a particular kind of thing that may not grip everyone, but I would love for any new viewer to go into it to just have fun with it. I get the feeling you are not engrossed enough to write any fic for these lovable dumbasses, but rereading some of your other fics and my love for this universe has me dipping my toe back into writing after burning out on my Dani and Jamie stuff when life got Too Real. Hope you get back into your house soon and hope you are well.

You’re correct that I’m not engrossed enough to write for it, BUT I was pleasantly surprised by the show. For a long time, the movie occupied a shelf in my head labeled “This Must Have Fucked Me Up, Because I Feel Terror At The Idea Of Rewatching It” (it’s in good company; the list of movies that fucked me up as a kid include such hits as: The Wizard of Oz; Willy Wonka; Fern Gully; The Dark Crystal; Little Nemo in Slumberland; Batman Returns; etc etc, I was scared of EVERYTHING as a child). So I never rewatched it—until a few weeks ago, when my mother insisted. I found it mostly sweet (minus the pig scene, which definitely did the damage to my child-self), and was pleased to find the show keeps the general energy of the movie, but Better. I love all the characters in that little party, I love the anachronistic language and music choices, and I thought it was beautifully costumed and shot. I hope it gets another season, too. It’s a lovely feel-good watch, even if it doesn’t live under my skin.

(Really really glad it’s awakened your love of writing. It’s always beautiful when something has that power.)

My sister’s part of a roleplay group and she’s on call in the same room that I’m in, so I’m like half listening to her talk to people, and I just heard her say in a very sincere, questioning voice, “I don’t know what skibidi is. (long pause) So, ‘skibidi is skibidi’?”

…god. Just date me already. We clearly like eachother, Sir. The only “now expectations” that exist are…kinda yours.
