potentially hot take but this is a pet peeve of mine
#listen. anyone can write whatever they want and idc I don’t have to engage with it. all power to them!!!!#it’s not even an automatic click-off for me or anything#i just… why. I don’t get it#like… that’s literally one of THE most iconic traits of the entire character. of the entire concept of the SHOW even#and you’re just gonna??? get rid of it??? hello????? the entire basis that John and Arthur’s relationship is made from????????#really????????? possibly the most tender part of their relationship???????#you don’t wanna write fluff about John reading him books and describing things and guiding him????? really?????????#it’s just so boring to me. I don’t understand the appeal#like yeah obviously Arthur as himself would definitely prefer to get his sight back#but as a concept like….#something ab the whole ‘happy ending = the disabled character gets ‘fixed’’ thing just leaves a bad taste in my mouth#why do u have to fix them. why cant they just be disabled. do you think people can’t be happy and be disabled???#idk maybe it’s not that deep. and still I don’t really care that much#it’s just the vibes. I don’t vibe with it.#and I’m sure there’s some actual annoying as hell discourse in the fandom ab it which I have zero interest in engaging in#but I had to have my little petty bitch moment#bc blind Arthur is everything to me. ESPECIALLY in a jarthur context.#anyways thank u for coming to my Ted talk#malevolent#arthur lester#if anyone wants me to tag this as smth Iemme know

with the amount that the main series dunks on the forbidden cities i would just love for unraveled to be just an unabashed celebration of humanity. like yes there is poverty and pollution and crime but also there is dancing and music and rollercoasters and scary movies. let keefe discover the beauty here! the first book was all about the wonder of the lost cities but unraveled could be all about the wonder of the forbidden cities
#i just have such a hard time with how much the series dunks on humans#which understandably so#but i just want unraveled to enjoy the forbidden cities#like if i have to read a book of keefe just being like “this food is garbage and the air smells bad and it sucks”#it would get really tired#i think there is an inherent life to humanity that the lost cities lack#there is no drive to live excitingly when you live forever because you don't have to squeeze as much as you can in#let keefe get a taste of that!!!!#its something that would SO lend itself to his character#as someone who was chronically punished as a child for being too much#LET HIM BE MUCH WITH HUMANITY#maybe all these tags should be in the post but eh#this is where i prefer to cook lol#kotlc#kotlc unraveled

GILUBONG SA DOMINGO
UG MAO ANG KATAPUSAN NI—
okay, so there's a moderate trainwreck of ideas happening here, especially because this is the set up for a future thought I have not talked about yet!
first, the solomon grundy part is because for some reason, in my mind, it was always about a guy who got married and then died immediately after from a "mysterious" illness, and I'm pretty sure the Cain Saga Solomon Grundy chapter only reinforced that in some deep part of my brain
this! story! is about! a young man from the provinces who gets married to the daughter of the spanish governor and dies soon after. more or less, his wife murdered him for the land that was in his name, even though it was shared in the community without hierarchy, and she (with her father) intends to turn it into a sugar plantation.
and it's also about the engkanto, the 'not like us.' (so here's the thing, I know people have translated/compared engkanto to fairies, and honestly fuck that. my mom has always translated engkanto into english as 'not like us' since forever, and it's a better fit for our region than any comparison to european fairy folklore.) in the last panel with the mother, the man with the long hair is the engkanto in this story. so, the story:
once upon a time, there was a field, there was a harvest, there was a young man. and one day in the middle of the harvest season, there was a handsome stranger. every day he would invite the young man to come with him, offer him gifts, entice him with conversation. then: the young man got married. soon after, he died. his life has been stolen so the land can be exploited, and the handsome stranger is one with the land. this is now a story about retribution
this is playing off of the tinamnan gabe story a little, but I have diverged significantly because this is going to be about folklore horror, and it's also technically a prequel story for something else.
I've seen the tinamnan gabe story retold online and I've seen people cite the book it's recorded in (Negros Oriental and Siquijor Island Legends, Beliefs and Folkways), but I don't have access to the book so no additional citations for this RIP 😔 (while I heard a lot of similar stories to this one growing up, in a forest instead of a field, I still wish I had access to the book for a lot of reasons, but especially because I like reading things. I want to read the book!!)
to conclude this, I also want the mom to get revenge for her son. ideally, when I pin this idea down further, it will be about folklore horror AND revenge.
⭐ I have a tip jar (ko-fi)!
⭐ and other places I’m at! bsky / pixiv / pillowfort /cohost / cara.app
#original tag#komiks tag#(shrug emoji)#some people like to be cohesive in telling original ideas. i prefer to jump head first into a pool and keep going#i also want to do a komik adaption of the tinamnan gabe story story independent of this one because it's fun. sexy even!#and gay. temptation baby! im there. i have my pencils ready. ALL I NEED IS THE FUCKING BOOK

My copy isn't coming until the 25th apparently, so I know what I'm going to be doing tomorrow.
#bill cipher#the book of bill#i do want to read the book for myself but at the same time i've already waited 7 months and it was supposed to be here today so...#i don't want to get spoiled but i think it's preferable as to Not Knowing for 2 more days#and i wasn't around for when the show was airing so watching the release of the book thus far has been a nice experience (RIP Gus)#50/50 chance on whether or not i'll reblog any spoilers but if i do i will tag them

holding finn tidestrider in my hands. why are you SUCH a whore.
#i mean i know why (born and raised in a society that enforces strictly monogamous relationships by punishment of death --#--and coming to the surface was really the first opportunity hes ever had to openly explore himself and his sexual/romantic preferences)#but also why have you written and published more than one book on this. what possessed you to do so.#jrwi riptide#jrwi#just roll with it#finn tidestrider#jrwi finn#i love shitposting about finn and then putting my actual character analysis in the tags. its a fun treat for me.

no one: not a single person: not a soul: me: useless and unimportant headcanon no one can take away from me is that raph's a filthy ellen ripley stan. she's smart, she's resourceful, she's kind, and she will single-handedly barge into a fucking xenomorph nest with a pulse rifle and flamethrower duct-taped together for nothing but the possibility she can save one person. an icon, a role model, an inspiration. i wanna be like her when i grow up.
#;radio static#;hannah's headcanons#;raphael#[ every time a character doesn't listen to ripley? disgusted. revolted. dedicated his entire life to our lord and savior ellen ripley-- ]#[ we are of course speaking only of alien 1979 and aliens 1986 because there are no other alien movies; dunno where you heard that ]#[ additional unimportant note: he also stans dr ellie sattler ]#[ i think her movie version--even tho he prefers the book--would remind him of don ]#[ not dropping this in the main tag; if it escapes containment it will do so naturally e-e ]

Do you have any favorite naruto fics you’d recommend? Any pairing, complete or not, on-hiatus, gen, oneshots, anything is fine lol
I was legitimately just pruning my bookmarks the other day!! thank you so much for asking.
I don't read too much fanfic these days, and I'm picky when I do--only about grammar/punctuation and immersion though. I ship a LOT of stuff (I guess The Youth would call me a proshipper) and although I never read darkfic, I don't shy away from weirder kinks and unhealthy relationship stuff.
categorizing by pairing, if applicable. some of them are smutty, and please note that the first 3 come from FFN which doesn't have a tagging system, but there is some SA CW I'll give in advance.
KAKASAKU | my first OTP! formative fics that totally reshaped my understanding of what fanfiction could be, and how well-written chemistry can make it or break it
HOUSE OF CROWS is the quintessential kakasaku fanfic. it was written during shippuden and so is canon divergent because of that, but also tells a comprehensive story of its own right that is intriguing and well planned. excellent characterization and world building. leaves me gutted in the best way on my yearly reread.
DUTY BEFORE HONOR is another silvershine classic. I don't reread is as often as House of Crows but they are just about equal in quality. again, the chemistry between them is off the charts, and the world feels so alive.
WILL OF FIRE for me is up there with House of Crows in being essential kakasaku reading. cynchick is a multisaku champion and a wonderful storyteller. the stakes in this one are stressful, the romance tense and believable, and we once again get lovely world building and great chemistry.
ITAKISA | a pairing near and dear to me, because men who do everything wrong are so deeply relatable. they both know they don't deserve anything good ever again but they found each other!!!! ARE YOU GUYS SEEING THIS--
A SHARK HIDDEN INN THE LEAVES doesn't have my favorite version of Kisame, but he's plenty close enough. it's a lengthy oneshot that got me into certain *ahem* kinks. it is a very fun and wild fic that is entirely self-aware of how absurd it's being, and manages to have nothing but sincerity at the same time (and I highly recommend the author's other stories as well)
AN ORCHESTRA PLAYING ON, INSANE is a modern AU (extremely rare in my bookmarks) that absolutely tore my heart out. god is it SO much to ask for these losers to be happy?! yes, it is, and I love every moment of it
MADAMITO | a rarepair I am SUCH a sucker for that has some of the most talented authors writing for it. lots of them have ot3 elements between them and hashirama, often angsty, but stuff like that is part of the appeal for me, lol
A HANDFUL OF SKY is an unfinished fic that I genuinely think about like once a week. if it ever updates then I will be over the moon. technically hashimadamito but it hadn't quite gotten there yet
LIKE ALTARS is just such a beautiful piece of writing, mostly on madara. it is everything, that is all
BLOOD AND RIVER WATER is more mito-centric but has one of my favorite madaras of all time
YOURS ARE RATTLED BONES is another short, mito-centric but gut-wrenching piece featuring the opposite type of madara from the last one
OTHER | character-centric stuff that isn't necessarily shippy but also doesn't have a very "gen" vibe either?
A SERPENT IN THE RICE is a little series about orochimaru that makes me feel so so so many things. highly recommended
HERETIC is such a love letter to kushina, and kurama too. cannot stress enough how much I adore this one
there's a few others that I probably won't link on tumblr, mostly unhealthy and/or "problematic" smut hhfhdj but maybe I'll make a public rec list on ao3 for these different categories and stuff like that.
but yeah that's pretty much it!!! I know it's not a huge list with a lot of variety but it's what I've enjoyed over the last 15+ years in the naruto fandom.
#user728299292#kakasaku#kisaita#madamito#I am SOOOO hesitant to tag all this stuff because I know how divisive kksk is. but sakura has been a grown adult in canon for 10 years now#so yknow. here I am. tagging kksk out in the open!!#also sorry I know I've been writing a lot of madasaku lately but I really don't read it at all...same with itasaku. mostly because those 2#have a really specific vibe that I prefer to read with them. that other people just don't typically have...so I wrote them how I wanted LMA#I'm so incredibly choosy with characterization and prose. it's gotta 'feel' right. I gotta feel like I'm stepping into another world#and ask literally anyone in my life...the dialogue CANNOT be bad#and my bar for bad is pretty high admittedly LMAO like ask ANYONE in my life...and this applies to movies tv shows books and fanfic#if the dialogue is trash I will DNF that shit soooo fast regardless of how interesting I found the premise/summary#ok ok I think that's all ENJOY!!!!#asks

does anyone have recommendations for non-fiction personal narratives about disability, specifically by people who were diagnosed as children and spent time in separated special education classrooms? (Autism preferred, but open to any disability in general)
#N posts stuff#autism tag#disability#so many of these books are written by late-diagnosed / mainstream educated people#but i’m specifically wanting to read more about the kids who Weren’t#and most of what i can find tends to be written by parents; which i’m open to but would prefer actual personal POVs#books are preferred but i’m also open to blogs or shorter essays if that’s what you have to recommend

Nobody can definitively say the means which lead to the tragic ends of two such beloved public figures. Nobody can name what it was that brought the last Targaryen heir to the throne and the only daughter of House Stark together in the first place. No one knows exactly what happened, not in truth, but people can speculate. And speculate, they do.
A SONG OF INTERVIEWS AND FAKE NEWS: Retrospectives on Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark
#rhaegar targaryen#lyanna stark#asoiaf#a song of ice and fire#pureasoiaf#if they look more minimalist than the others. thats because the magazine covers theyre based on are extremely minimalist lol#thats just how Respected Publications handle the deaths of beloved public figures#prince rhaegar is based on a princess diana cover even tho elia is definitely more princess diana or even lyanna#lyanna is partly based on a few time magazine covers and partly on the same diana cover lmao#its meant to look more true crime ish and less picture perfect nostalgia memorial#originally i was going to make article samples like i did for the arya ones and then i was like. lmao no#i could do a jon centric spread and i have a couple ideas#but i would rather he have his own set of 4 like arya#so. thus. as a result. tosses this at your feet#that being said i prefer rhaelya divorce!verse over a more book timeline modern au#bc its funny to ME#and i have written a little bit of fic for it feat stealth jonrya#but mehhh idk. id have to edit to post#this is not smart or pretty enough to throw into every single possible canon tag. i just want it out of my drafts#hewantshisedits#hewantshisposts#hewantshisaus#hewantshiscontemporaryaus

So according to the trailer River and Louisa might develop more of a romantic connection than a friend connection. I mean, I’m not necessarily surprised but I hope I’m wrong.
#I much prefer their relationship as that of just good friends with nothing romantic going on#also love the idea of River being aroace#I guess I can get behind it eventually :/#but it’s like shipping Ahsoka Tano with Barriss Offee#which is to say yes but no that character is aroace and the only non upsetting ship is with kaeden and sid respectively#Srry just kinda venting in the tags#but I fucking love those two so it’ll be fine#just kinda bummed#also I don’t think I’m gonna last till next season without reading at least two of the books#slow horses

Good evening if you are spoiling the Percy Jackson series for people who haven’t read the books on purpose you’re an asshole
#saw someone arguing that because the books have been out for a while people can’t be surprised when they get spoiled#hey dude. people should be able to consume content of a book adaptation show without having the main plot twist spoiled for them#this is specifically about the very end of book one don’t be a dick and spoil the fun of that for everyone#I truly think that if people on tiktok are going to at all spoil the upcoming episodes they should put a visual or preferably auditory#warning about it but that’s a whole other can of worms for now just don’t be a dick on purpose#this is something I love ab tumblr vs tiktok if you don’t wanna see spoilers on tumblr you can filter the fandom or the fandom spoilers tag#meanwhile on tiktok you have to rely purely on people putting spoiler warnings for things which happens about .1% of the time#tiktok really should have a filtering system with their tags but again that’s a whole other thing#percy jackson#pjo#autism (mads) speaks#madurday night live#it’s kinda both this is a psa for honestly all book adaptations#actually it’s a psa in general tag your fucking spoilers people#pjo disney+#pjotv#pjo tv show
