i really do need a new job last night i sobbed for like 20 minutes straight after knocking over a bowl with a bit of old soup in it
#the stress is just. getting to me#all the little frustrations and inconveniences and decisions and circumstances have been adding up and like. i have a headache#i don't know what to eat. everyone needs me for something and i love them and i want to do things but im so tired#i never call out or come in late to work and i do what im supposed to do and i don't take lunch breaks because theres no time to#and i still make the same 15/h as everyone else and i still dont buy enough groceries because butter is four dollars a pound now#and whenever i buy meat neither of us can prep it for the freezer before it goes bad. i barely get enough protein anymore#but im alive. yknow. im here and im still in love and i dont live with my parents. sometimes i dream the kitchen i work in gets shut down#and we all get fired and part of me is so relieved#im braver than i think most of the time but i dont wanna be. i wanna be a housecat. i wanna bake lemon bars and roast potatoes

Listening to episode 44 of malevolent (live listen)
Arthur stay still while your organs put themselves back please
HELLO YORICK! HOW ARE YOU BUDDY?
Arthur is so salty, I love him.
Awwwwww John, look at you taking care of your boyfriend!!!
Yorick is weirdly autistic coded and I love him for that
… what the fuck is going on
“Not when. If.” John I love you but Arthur is a human and will die at some point.
“Then I have to stay alive I guess” ARTHUR. MAYBE STAY ALIVE FOR PEOPLE OTHER THAN JOHN. YKNOW. LIKE YOURSELF.
ARTHUR GETTING ARMOR LETS GOOOOOO MEDIEVAL MAN
Oohh. Oohh no. Oh god. Stop. Stop it Arthur. DONT CRY. IM NOT MENTALLY PREPARED.
YORICK SHUT THE FUCK IP AND LET THEM HAVE THEIR MOMENT.
Three days is not more than enough Arthur your organs have to rearrange themselves.
Oh Oscar’s note again. Oh fuck. Imagine if it has blood on it and he can’t read it. That would be so fucked up.
“It still doesn’t feel like the right time” yea, literally. It’s not the right time period.
YORICK I SWEAR TO GOD SHUT UP I LOVE YOU BUT DAMN
“Neither. I am Yorick!” Damn, another transgender allegory
“Something feels… like we’re missing something.” Don’t die again. Don’t you dare.
DETECTIVE LESTER LETS GO
“WHY DIDNT YOU—“ “let it go, let it go, she’s dead” not Arthur calming his boyfriend down ‘this isn’t you’ style
“You know that I love you too. And I couldn’t do this without you.” “I know.” “But I don’t recall if I told you… how proud I was of you. For finding your way. Without me, without anyone. It must’ve been difficult to fight for who you were. Who you are.” MMMMHHHHHHH IM GONNA CRY OMG
YYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY DOOOOOOOORRRRR
Fuck you Yorick
Why her left hand. WHY HER LEFT HAND YORICK. WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING.
Yorick drowning is strangely satisfying to me even though I think he’s funny and a good character like shut the fuck up man
Arthur don’t you dare drown
ARTHUR DONT YOU DARE DROWN
FUCK YOU PLANTS YOU AINT SHIT
Aaaaawwwwwww they’re all laughing and happy. This is great. Let’s never do anything ever again ok guys?
“I may have pulled my… stomach.” Arthur go to a doctor for fucks sake
“If your okay with it” Arthur I love you but you need stitches and John being comfortable is not your concern right now
Yorick. Yorick no. YORICK NO. YORICK PLEASE. YORICK I LOVE YOU NO. YORICK THIS ISNT YOU.
I do appreciate that Arthur is going with it and doesn’t care that John made a deal without his consent. Arthur knows that John was desperate and understands and I really like that.
What the fuck does “day of wrath” mean?WHAT THE FUCK DOES DAY OF WRATH MEAN?!?!?!
ALEXANDER!!!!!!!!!!! THE BOY!!!!!!! I LOVE HIM!!!!!
“Owls don’t eat people, boys” god he’s talking to them like they’re a fucking polycule
“I for one am glad you’re here Alexander. Between this one never shutting up and this one always with me, I appreciate a companion who seems to enjoy the silence” I love Arthur so much he’s such a babygirl
Wait a minute. WAIT A MINUTE. WAS THAT PARKER IN THE WAYLAY?!?!?! OH MY GOD HES SO AWSOME!!!!!!!
First episode where something didn’t immediately try to eat them let’s goooooo

Yknow, I dont think my Mother understands quite how suicidal she makes me.
And this morning I woke up, started reading n shit and well... thinking about life. and to me it really doesnt seem theres anything worth living for. It's just pain. even if i get out of here, who's to say that something else bad wont happen? Hell, it will of course. thats just how shit works. What if my partners break up with me? hate me? or die...
Nothing really makes me happy anymore. There's maybe 5 people who do and theyre all on here.
Im a risk to myself but I dont think they have devices in those places. the asylum places. but thats not what theyre called anymore, is it? and theyd make me wear horrible clothes i think. ones that make me wanna die more.
I still dont think people love me. I dont think I ever really did. I practically fucking worship some of you.
I think I bring pain to everyone else too.
I dont really wanna be here. I dont really wanna be alive. There's so little worth living for.
I had a panic attack last night. Hyperventilating. No one cared.
My parents triggered it and my dad went on yelling at me even as i was hurting myself and hyperventilating.
Wouldnt it be great to just... die?
I think it would but I dont want to hurt you guys.

RP trope tierlist
logging in from being AWOL due to The Inherent Stress Of Being Alive in order to post a dash meme that doesnt require thought
tagged by : @marionmaverick tagging : @aetheryic and anyone else whos online and happens to see this
ponderings on tropes behind cut and fel free to DM me if theres any of this bullshit u wanna write with me [audible winking noise]
ok hear me out. college aus are S tier and high school aus are D tier because as an adult i refuse to be invested in the goings-on of high schools and also the high school au offers fundamentally less options for insanity. college aus are here for me to make jokes in because anything in a college setting can happen. colleges are weird. this applies to both teachers and students. all the drama of ur school au with the added bonus of plots like "i have to hunt a professor for sport like some kind of CIA sting operation because he doesnt respond to emails and isnt in his office hours so come help me corner this guy". that, inherently, rules much more than "i still live with my parents because im 17". this is an unskippable monologue.
sharing a bed/fake relationships are all excuses for me to write incredible yearning, which i love and is my strength.
all folklore/historical/royal/magic/crossover aus rule. also i am a historian with a focus on literature/folklore/religion so obviously im Into It
we dont talk about my deep and abiding love for omegaverse unless ur also into omegaverse. i have a sprawling universe for all my muses in my brain. please dont judge me.
sex pollen is superior to fuck or die as a trope. i hold this true and sincere to my heart because of the specific kinks which i have. this is my skippable monologue cutscene in which i expound the delicate differences between the two. [REDACTED FOR LENGTH]
amnesia/death bore me generally. dark is fine so long as its not simply pure angst with no redemption. i enjoy angst but not pointless torment. yknow? miscommunication also bores me because its too easily solved and becomes unrelatable at a certain point of extension
crackfic and humor are different things, crack to me requires ooc. only chumps require breaking character to make jokes. skill issue.
i dont even know how id write a time loop thread bc 1. idk how itd work in general 2. every time i hear time loop i think of the fate/hollow ataraxia doujin that makes me laugh perpetually where archer gets stuck in a timeloop where the resest point is him getting boned. would be incapable of writing a time loop seriously bc id just be like "yeah but when can i make it reset so when the character wakes up theyre getting fucked like DAMNIT CAN I AT LEAST WAKE UP DURING THE FOREPLAY SO IM NOT SURPRISED BY IT bc thats my sense of humor"
now you too much about me as a person i guess but its been so long since i wrote i have to vomit thoughts apparently.

☀️ its fascinating that you say P3 has shaped your worldview because... Well not to trauma dump here but back then when I discovered the game (it was back then when p4 was already out) i was... In a REALLY bad place and wondering about unaliving myself. I wont go into much detail but kids are trash man and teens are even worse. and then this game came around. With an aesthetic I really liked. i am not a native english speaker so it was hard for me at first but somehow this game just... /spoke to me/. A game about life and death and what it means to be alive and what it means to have a REASON to live, somehow... Convinced me to go a bit longer. I mean it when I say this: Persona 3 saved my life. And no other game can ever come close to such an experience. (Even tho from a quality standpoint P5 certainly is up there)
oh dude that is so valid thank you for sharing this. seriously though, im happy that youre here! and im sure many others are too! the ☀️ brightening lives and all that :]
yea i can see why p3 just clicked with so many people since it first came out. i was always curious on why it's so beloved by fans, when p5 and even p4 are literally right there with their overall better gameplay experiences. p5 literally got the franchise mainstream to insane heights lol. im... so glad i got into persona the way i did. of course, everyone's experiences w these games are different and special to them in their own way.
i got into persona 3 as an adult and as a result the lens in which i viewed the story's themes were heightened, in a way. as a teen i just know i would have reacted more volatilely i struggle to think about it LOL but both experiences would still be pretty intense. it's just that, as an adult there's more room to digest it when im not troubled by algebra hw. i was just more equipped for it (also i played omori two summers ago LMAOO). ofc i only turned 20 a few weeks ago LOL but i get why p3 means so much to people.
because it's like... 2000s nostalgia coupled with a game that figuratively holds your hand through the uncertainty of death yknow? p3 is a friend, basically. its entire thesis is based upon companionship (exactly what i highlight in an analysis i have drafted somewhere but HHH i dont want this to get too long lmao)
in the shaping my worldviews thing... its really more like it cemented my 'philosophies' :] like i said, equipped with the stuff i learned before, p3 having the message that it did just... hit super close to home! like yeah! that's what i've been saying dude!! kindness really is enough!!
"You don't have to save the world to find meaning in life... Sometimes all you need is something simple, like someone to take care of."
LIKE YEA GIRL THATS EXACTLY IT!! its so cool! i actually admire people who grew up with p3 because man if i heard this line ages ago... well, again, idk if i would be able to grasp it fully at the time... but still! this is so good, poetry in motion. and like u said its aesthetics are gorgeous and aim to capture the essence of its themes - and it did.
im a p5 baby like bro i love p5. soft spot for it. thats the closest persona game i "grew up" with and it came at such an opportune time for me, being a teen stuck between a rock and a hard place. typical. and p5 validated my teenage angst bs so much. its so refreshing to see a game's theme being rebellion. that was me i thought. those characters are going through something that similarly happened to me. teenage rebellion is such a fun thing to explore!
so p5 validated my struggles while p3 did something deeper than that, somehow. i think it just made me .. stronger? like it made me move on from struggles. "by remembering death you learn how to live" so... i guess p3 taught me how to live as crazy as that sounds. but you get me
persona 5 overall is great -- everyone agrees, like its objectively just a better game. but persona 3 ends up more beloved because of its subjective value as a piece of art. there's a lot of heart and soul to put into it.
it's more simple when compared to p5 at first glance, but simple doesn't mean less. which is why more people experiencing it will be nice to see
#p5 is me going: im going to live and that is a threat#while p3 is: im going to live because that is what i want#persona 5#persona 3#persona 3 reload#aishi.txt#☀️ anon#ans#that being said p5 makes me glad to be alive too. it makes me more expressive? its a game all about not caring what other ppl think#and doing your own thing#and p5 really helped me in that LOL i do be dressing more boldly ever since p5 ngl#idk which game's more influential to me honestly like they did so much#to me as a person#normally thats embarrassing to admit but idc man these games have something in them#its the character-driven stories and them being written realistically thing i think#ALTHOUGH. i must stress that p5 characters have too many contradictions#wrote this instead of going to sleep like a normal person because uhm. ily

hi im sorry I just need to ramble gen loss crap somewhere this s relating to the pole you did I really don’t wanna ramble literal paragraphs in tags:
The dehumanization of content creator by both corporations and fans alike: Lets me honest this is just kind a the surface metaphorical meaning of it all im pretty its been confirmed if not I dont think I need to explain why.
How when our perception of reality is manipulated, our choices mean nothing: tbh this is kinda correct in a way?? Because it all ends in Ranboo dying right? Like let’s if he refuses to do the activities in ep 2 like he’s just gonna die yknow? Like the more you think about it our own choices didn’t really matter they all lead up to the ending scene of rans death. What if we chose live? Something tells me showfall would just erase his memory and reuse them and then the cycle could repeat until inevitable death.
One of many attempts to escape the facility that always ends in death: Kinda what i js said but like: Also it would be extremely hard for Ranboo in any way to escape. Primarily bc mind control. But let’s say that doesn’t apply. Try to escape the mall? Let’s be real the doors are gonna be jammed and there’s showfall people everywhere they’re probably just gonna inject Ranboo with something. Tries to prove to the cameras he being held hostage by showfall? In a ‘real world’ situation Is anyone gonna believe him? They might just think he’s acting. At some point showfall is js gonna get bored of dealing with them and just off him.
also did you see sneeg trying to escape-
The sanitization of today's media to better cater to and profit off of children: I could see this because it is also a VERY common thing in the world with like family channels, child beauty pageants, and what is more similar to genloss’s implementation of this: Ranboo blew up when he was 17! Tommy and Tubbo 16! They were literal minors! They were kids! It was and still is disgusting how much sexual content was produced of them when they were CHILDREN. There are endless examples of this: hundreds, if not THOUSANDS or articles made about an ‘offensive comment’ that was literally just taken out of context, tiktoks and threads saying THAT THEY SHOULD GROW UP?? they are kids!
honestly unsure what the cannon ages of the genloss characters are but if were going by irl ages Ranboo is still 19! Honestly more rambling about how kinda sad this is like, bro is 19 he is literally getting doxxed, death threats, and still creating genloss! Like their 19 and made a work that was considered for an Emmy! (Also being the only not virtual reality work)
The favorable interpretation of events we're supposed to believe vs. the truth: A LOT of ep 2 how they par-take in these games with seem innocent at first, just playing some mouse trap, introducing yourself, etc. but they are literally being held a gunpoint. The scene where Ranboo rips open Charlie it just seems like a comedic scene but for a few seconds the slime is blood. Ranboo is being forced to rip open Charlie simply to survive himself. The puzzler straight up shoots Niki TWICE and the audience(LITERALLY US LOL) feel bad, but a lot people find it funny(kinda is tho- low key loved that scene) obviously Niki is alive so its funnier but what if she actually died?
here’s more of my ramble on genloss meanings and stuff
I just the horrible effects of social media. hate from just being yourself, hate for being ‘fake’/ a ‘catfish’, hate for having fun, hate for not enjoying yourself and people telling you should be grateful. To the point where instead of being yourself you force yourself to shape into this emotionless mold just to appeal to the internet. You could try to ask for help(ranboo spelling sos in Morse code w hand),but your to far gone “you already bought a ticket and there’s no turning back now” I know this isn’t the most accurate but it’s literally 4am lol
Social Media|Showfall Media ya see it?
Srry for the such unorganized thoughts and crap im a dying autistic. -☁︎🪷(just a name to recognize me by you never know also I’m rambling more here about random shit-)
I’ve been trying to think of a response to this ask for a solid five minutes but I just can’t. I just, I’m so so so happy right now. Like, literally smiling ear to ear. You have no idea how happy this makes me. :DDDDD
I adore analyzing media to pieces but with genloss specifically, I also enjoy understanding all of the different influences and interpretations from the audience. Normally, once I find an interpretation I like (either created by me, the most popular, or simply the first one I see) I stick with it, hard. All future thoughts about that media run through the certain interpretation filter only, which isn’t y’know the most open mindset I’ll admit lmao. I think what was different about genloss was a combination of me being a genlosser from the very beginning, being share my theories publicly for the first time, and probably the biggest reason, I didn’t believe the most popular interpretation.
I’ve always been an OUR CHOICE DOESNT MATTER believer since the beginning and could never get on the content creator exploitation train before it left the station. So I guess it gave me a different perspective in regards to reading and sharing analysis posts. Somehow both more critical and more understanding, like I could tell you how the dehumanizing cc theory only applies to eps 2 and 3, while acknowledging that the end of ep 3 literally had a choice that supposedly did matter so who tf cares we’re all having fun. And then I wondered if the cc interpretation was the most popular one and now we’re here.
And so far, it turns out that yeah it very much is lol. But all the notes going into detail about why they believe what they believe just gave me so much more insight and appreciation for the theory. Not just that one but all other interpretations, timeloops, capitalism allegories, your social media parallels just to name a few, have grown a special place in my heart in a way that hasn’t happened to me before genloss. Idk it’s just very cool and I love hearing ‘em all.
Also so I can be told very obvious things I haven’t noticed before. Like how am I just now understanding Social Media -> Showfall Media pfffff
#genloss#I’m a fellow rambler can’t you tell lmao#I love being a nerd#:D#I’ll organize tags later once I rest it’s too late to think anymore lol

literally have no idea where to start so im just gonna randomly rapid fire :] here are my thoughts on 999 in general + the last ending in particular
which is basically that im a bit :T with just how much was left unexplained and also the lack of a 'veil lifting'... like ok ill explain what i mean by a 'veil lifting' first, so essentially ok alright akane and santa are the masterminds right? ok thats cool thats crystal, but its just... it just feels so odd how we never really see them drop their facades at any point. like ok santa briefly drops his and goes 'haha ya got me. im the secretary lol' but then he dips out and we Never See Him Again. and its even worse with akane like ok sure i dont need to see her acting like zero thats whatever but its just like.... man it wouldve been really nice and rewarding to see santa and akane act like the siblings they are yknow. like i get that it was all an act but its just so unfulfilling to never see them drop their act and show how much they care abt each other, at least not in the present day. and like jeezzz in the ending... when i thought like oh hey look the games actually going to show me akane and santa! .....it turns out to be butt-naked alice. like.... dude. like Dude did we not JUST have a whole moment where the game was like 'Yeah alice was just a red herring haha gotcha good'. like alice's appearance was just bewildering and not in a very funny or relieving way and it just like, left more questions than answers and not in a good way, especiallyyyy considering just how much was left unanswered like.... like just how exactly did santa and akane even manage to pull any of this off like. are they secret millionaires or something what the fuck. or lotus! what the hell is up with lotus huh! why is she involved in any of this! whats her backstory w being a former cyber security expert for some firm huh? or whats with snake's new cult outfit?! AND HOW IS JUNE ALIVE....??? like ok i skimmed thru this famitsu interview w the director where he explains a bunch of unexplained things and its like... naw i do not believe what hes saying cuz they hardly make sense. saying that 'june is a living breathing human whose 100% alive and not a walking paradox' like ermm.. i have more things to say abt this but im sleepy + hungry sooo ill post them as i think abt them haha. but in spite of my complaints i did enjoy this game very much, aside from the first puzzle with that bitch of a hidden bed, i had no other troubles with any of the other puzzles ^_^ incredible art atmosphere and music and the writing, in spite of its shortcomings, was still really intriguing and fun to play! it was a good game 👍
so in general i loved the art direction of the game, it was very grungey edgey the 3d backgrounds and models worked super duper well with the illustrated sprites and and the atmosphere of the game was just top notch the entire time, the music was super good too like it was the right amount of funky tense and scary when it needed to be i loveeed it... as to that LAST ENDING... okkk so.. i got teary eyed quite a number of times OFC like when snake and clover reunited QwQ and when i learned of how akane horrifically died Q_Q and when she finally got saved.. QuQ and likeee i really really do like that akane turned out to be zero i was not expecting that!! i wasnt completely on board w the prev route's conclusion that santa was zero but like i said there were just so many possibilities and i really didnt know who on earth zero could possibly be!!
but with that said i really do like the reveal that its akane and that shes saving herself in a way like seriously i think thats soooo very very cool and probably the best part abt this ending and the game in general, which is that the heroine set up all this messed up shit just so she could save herself from a really cruel and terrible death. i really love that. i reallyyyy love a girl who saves herself... THATS AWESOME... although shes saving herself thru a guy but shes still saving herself in a way yknow i like it a lot. and its the fact that its just so incredibly awesome how zero has been akane this whole time and has been saving herself is this whole time that does a lot of heavy lifting for my less favorable complaints w this ending and the game in general..

Notes from when I was going insane 4.10
What I want
Is what I wanted from the start
Perfection
But
I cannot handle the truth
Perfection is stagnation
I want something beyond perfect
I found perfect
But
It didnt make itself very hidden to be honest
I am built to seek perfection
Not what to do when I find it
…
I am not built to do anything but seek out perfection
If I find it and I have
Then I will destroy it
To become something beyond perfect!!
[redacted]
[redacted]
Why not just accept it
Give it up
[redacted]
You can drop the act and go home now
Get off the stage and enjoy the bounty of the wilds
Be boring
[redacted]
[redacted]
I dont want to
I dont want to
Why even be human then
Why be human if humans are imperfect
Why not be perfect
…
Be boring
…
But
…
Open arms
NO
TRYING TO KILL ME
THATS ALL IT IS
[redacted]
ARGHHHHHHH
WE ARE HUMANS
WE ARE HUMANS
WE SEE THE PAST SO WE CAN PREDICT THE FUTURE
THE PRESENT IS OUT OF REACH TO US
[redacted]
Why am I alive
[redacted]
What am I
And to what do I strive for?
I… I want to exist
And be human
…
I can be perfect
In another time
In another body
And have and will
[redacted]
Thats silly
Why not accept it, embrace it
Even if its suffering
Why throw it away?
This creation
I can fix it
Not really
I dont wanna be redeemed
I dont wanna reject humanity
I dont want reality
Reality is lame and bad and boring
Quiet
Too quiet
…
I dont know
I dont want to be
Loving
I tried to love
And it almost got me killed
And the will to live
Is stronger than love
Ultimately
And I know this as a fact
So why
Even
Bother
With love
…
Maybe to die out of love
Is what I should strive to do
Perhaps
But no one is lovable
[redacted]
Why love
…
I just want to be alone
Instead of hurt
Kill myself before nature gets to me first
…
Love is a waste of time
Love is beyond time
Whatever
I still am Me
I exist in the past to predict the future
[redacted]
But thatd make me rejected by my peers ecen more than I already am
Nobody would want me
And I will die even faster
[redacted]
But you wanted to die, no
Right
So why not die THIS way instead
Well
True
Its a bit on the boring sidw
[redacted]
Its too predictable
Yknow
I dont like that
Its boring
I dont feel hope
When I already know the outcome
You see
I foretell my own defeat
Well
Why not lie and say
Oh oh
You can win
Nope
Too smart unfortunately
I see my defeat
…
As clearly as I see my own death every day
…
Well
What makes it defeat
I didnt get the outcome I wanted
You have too high standards
That is true
[redacted]
But
To be honest
I demand love ironically enough
[redacted]
Thats what I want in ever each outcome
I can foretell its loss
Because I recognize it and the conditions that allow it
Why do you demand love
When love is everywhere anyway
…
Love is anywhere everywhrr blahblahblah
As if
The rain still falls
The rain still is falling
And always will
I dont want love
Errrrrr
Love bad
I demand love
Not this fake love thats everywhere
I want
…
I want
…
Something, something else
Im not sure what
I want to go home
When I foretell my defeat
I foretell that love is dead and I can do nothing about ut
Im on the losers side
Alone
I wanted my peers to care about me
I felt
Robbed
Incomplete
Nothing cared about me
It says
Go ahead and die
They cast me aside
I dont want that
I foretell that
Every step of the way
I see a loveless land
Awful
[redacted]
A cruel struggle
Oh
Oh why
I dont want this
See
Why be loving
I foretell its a waste of my time
Although
Everything is a waste of time anyway
Since nothing ever matters
Well
Then why do I exist
Why am I here then
What am I supposed to do
[redacted]
Perhaps that is what I must do
No human should exist alone
…
But people are ugly
Loveless
Godless
Awful
They do not seek to love
For good reason
Why even try
I will fail for decades before succeeding
But
I supposeeeeee
It is a success
Eventually
Sigh
Yeah
I guess
[redacted]
Eventually
…
Hmmmm…
[redacted]
[redacted]
…
My memories are sad memories
Of no hope
Sad songs
Cant even be happy
So cold
The rain keeps falling
…
Why bother loving
…
I foretell my defeat
Why commit
…
[redacted]
WHY LAY DOWN AND DIE
WAITING TO BE EATEN
…
ARGH!!!
Why do I exist
Why
[redacted]
I suffer
The visions
Memories
[redacted]
…
Maybe
I can reject this
And do something else
Maybe…
I can try to be
Something else
Let go of the past
Not even bother with the future
…
I am scared of what I cannot predict
The fear of death, this cursed blood
Is stronger than love
…
No
Love is perfect
…
Perhaps that is redemption
…
…unable to be love
I try ever each day to get closer to it
However futile my attempts
Its hopeless though
I can never be perfect
Be not cursed
I see my defeat
I see my defeat
Why even bother
…
Blood cannot ever be perfect
Not ever be uncursed
Less bad
But not good
Let alone good enough
But
…
Maybe
…
I can reject the past…
Try to change the future
[redacted]
Why bother
Why bother dreaming
Unappreciated and alone
Unheard
Why bother!!!!!
My dreams
Nobody cared
Not even I cared
Nobody!!!!
Why bother fighting destiny and fate
0 percent chances
Why bother
Why why why
[redacted]
Perhaps
That is love
[redacted]
Why fight
To love
Thats why
To love
What do I love?
[redacted]
My eyes turn to it
And I am there
My treasure
…
[redacted]
[redacted]
What is love
What is worth loving
Why bother
Why bother
That is love
[redacted]
Than love is bad
A waste of time
Nature always wins
Love bad
Why bother fighting
I love nothing
Nothing ever loved me
Thats not true
That isnt true
That isnt true
Something once DID love me
I still remember
I always will remember them
I still remember
I do
Fight for them
To make them happy
To make them happy
…
Just them
…
Just me too
…
[redacted]
…
Why bother loving
If nothing ever even loved me
Something did love me
I was loved
…
I wonder why
Why did they love
Naively?
Im not sure
Why they loved
Love is weak and bad and imperfect and changing too much
Bad bad bad
No
Love is stillness
Bad bad bad
No
…
I dont want to love
Love is a waste of time
No
Love is where I am home
…
I see
…
Love is where I am home
[redacted]
I might as well be dead
[redacted]
I dont understand
I am incomplete
Without love, I am incomplete
But
[redacted]
[redacted]
[redacted]
When I look in the mirror
I see my loved ones
Then I see me, inside my head and inside my chest
I am not used to seeing
Blood
The blood within this shell
Pulsing in defiance of inevitability
…
Im not used to seeing blood
It makes it all the more tragic
To see others fall away
…
I wish I saw the clouds
Whenever I looked in the mirror
…
Thats my dream, then
A simple dream
I want to commit to that
When I look in the mirror
I see the clouds
That would make me
happy

I know I usually talk looney and silly like but damn.. stuff hits hard.
I don't know why I am writing this. It feels stupid, but I'll get it out.
was looking through sonic wiki, and wanted to make sure I was characterizing ( and mixing ) gerald robotnik right and to the best of my ability.
I know I've never gotten through any sonic games before, but to think that my first (or second?) sonic game was Sonic advanced and...
(This feels so stupid to write. but I'm writing it because I must.)
maybe its cause its 12:23 am and my emotional regulation is out of wack. I just... Gerald robotnik man... I wish I could give that guy a hug. or something. ANYTHING. the- "bring hope to humanity" the fucking- god I haven't cried in ages like this i don't even know.

I'm so used to edgy backstories and disturbing shit that I basically am unfazed or joking about it but godsamn you guys- IDK you probably all understand who ever you are in the world but we all gotta be real good ro eachother all right? because everyday Is really FUCKING HARD and I keep trying to tell peopl I love them and I want to scream it out into the world SO SO FUCKING BADLY and this is just one of those fucking fehukwekbj.fase AAAAAA
I want to hug them and say everything is going to be okay- and I don't even know if its for them or for ME but I swear man. everytime I see those cute and cool and amzing peices of artwork or maria and shadow and the arc I just- I have to stop and stare for minutes or however long I decide to just stare and god just staring at it makes me feel shit man.
why is it so hard to love. who gives you such a big heart and tells you to harden it man. who does that shit who fucking did that to me who fucking did that yo.
It was just a few lines on the wiki too..

its 12:42 AM I don't know if its the tiredness or whatever but Idk.

I dont even know WHY im crying I just am and goddamit its gfucking guly crying man-
I keep- and let me tell you my only true memory of Gerald that isn't just wiped out is that archie comic panel where he's talking to shadow in some white void or something- and I just.. and I think about it so much now everytime I think of Gerald- and then Maria's last words god fucking dammit they didnt deserve any of that why why'd that have to occcur why am i FUCKIGNC RYINGI DONT KNWO?!?1??
There was just kindness in that, i can't even- ts got to be the nghttime and part of me wants to post this don't care what happens to this post because it'll be locked away in ths internet world forever and one day I'll forget it ever existed in the first place untill someone reminds me and I'll remember if I ever loose myself that I cried over the words and words ALONE of a old scientist guy who was just trying to save his grandaughter and make a bunch of people happy and- the gziodddd..... that was my first fucking game and i never got to see it... cause I raged quit and only played the first section of the first level before quitting....it was either that or like the one where creams mom gets captured idk i never finished it.

Hi!!! New follower here lol. I'd love to hear about the demon/soulmate hcs 👀
HIII im glad to have you here!!!! ty for asking ^_^
(this got so long im so sorry)
so basically demons have a special type of semi-immortality (they cant die from age but can still be killed) where their lives are connected to a mortal soulmate(s)'s whom they will seek out
these mortals were historically (and still often are) humans (which led to the creation of the horned human variant thousands and thousands of years ago, but thats a different topic) < eryn's parents are a good example of this
Soulmate bonds always exist from the moment all involved parties are alive at the same time (so for instance, if there were a pair where one was a year older, the bond would exist from the moment the younger one was born), but they do not "show themselves" (i.e; the demon does not get the instinct to seek them out) until the demon reaches the age of 18. at this point, the demon will find their soulmate(s) and once they meet, their lives will be connected from then on
If a demon for some reason does not seek out their soulmate(s), they will still be naturally drawn to them, which often leads to them meeting anyway. however if by some stroke of misfortune or intentional resistance the demon never meets their soulmate(s) by age 100, then they will be left with only a single life. For this reason, even the most prickly of demons will search for their soulmate, but there are the rare, heartless few who choose this dangerous and lonely life.
also IMPORTANT NOTE soulmates in this context does NOT mean romantic partners. It often is, but asexual and/or aromantic demons are not by any means forced to be in a relationship. Soulmates in this sense purely means a person or people whom you connect to and spend your life with, and it doesn't even strictly mean you have to be together all the time. Soulmates can be strictly platonic, romantic, sexual; it simply depends on the personality and preferences of the demon. (And the mortal of course!)
(when it comes to bad and skeppy theyre gay as hell tho LOL)
^ this also means that demons can totally be in relationships w each other, since soulmates arent necessarily romantic or sexual; ur soulmate(s) could in theory just be like one of your friends who you dont even live with or anything and you live with your actual partner. (although usually soulmates will at least live near each other since yknow, your lives are linked. better to not have the person/people responsible for whether you live or die just out in the world wherever tf)
anyways yes thats the whole soulmate thing ^_^ i always found the fact that bad and skeppy's lives were linked super interesting since it's something unique to them, so i thought it'd be cool if it was a demon thing
(tina is the only other full demon on the server but i havent thought out how the soulmate bond would factor into her and hannah yet;;)
(as for eryn, they're a demon-human hybrid but that does means he still retains the soulmate-bonded semi-immortality. he issss 18 irl although since i think of c!tommy as still being 17 c!eryn would probably still be 17 rn too ^_^ i have played around w the idea of tommy being their platonic soulmate but idk if i'd actually want that to be the case. regardless c!eryn still being 17 would mean his soul bond hasnt emerged yet so it doesnt rlly matter lol)
anyways yea yea ty for being interested sorry this is so long LMFAO

Sun Touched Zuko AU!!
Tag list @chaoticidiott @mypureessence @fae-tales-personal
This won't be a soulmate AU but it will be Zukka for sure.
Zuko was born sick, so sick in fact that he was going to die. His mother prayed to Agni that he would live, prayed that the sun spirit would save her first born son. In the gardens she held him up to the Setting sun pleading. The suns rays caught in the amber stone on top of the alter set for worship and moved to Zuko's eyes. His hair changed from solid black to a golden blonde, he opened eyes and began to cry. He was touched by the Sun and lived.
Ursa couldnt have been more happy, her son was alive. "My little sunshine" she whispered with tears rolling down her cheeks as she held him close and rocked him in her arms.
When Ozai saw his son's golden hair he demanded that it be dyed black, but was willing to compromise when Ursa suggested they wait until he turns 5 so that the dyes don't harm him.
The first time they dyed his hair he asked his mom why, his bright molten eyes looking at her with confusion "because your father wants you to feel safer my sunshine, people will stare at you with that bright shining hair of yours"
"Oh, okay" was his only response that day. He never questioned it anymore when they touched up his roots weekly.
After his mother left him he felt alone in the world, his dad still staining his golden hair each week with more and more ink. All the while berating him when he couldnt control his fire well. Even with being touched by the spirit and having powerful fire he couldnt manage to control it, couldnt understand how to. Until master Piandou taught him swords and he applied his teachings to his fire.
The first time he used his swords to control the fire Piandou was more than impressed "Prince Zuko! That was amazing!"
"Thank you Master, thinking of the swords as an extension helped me control the flames better" his smile soon faded when his father appeared
"Yes, great work Zuko, I am pleased to see you have learned how to control your flames, however mixing these arts in this fashion is unacceptable. Come with me"
After that he wasn't allowed back at Piandou's unless he was accompanied by either his father, or an advisor to make sure he practiced correctly.
On the day of his fated Agni Kai Zuko had just gotten his roots retouched before entering the war meeting. When his father burnt him for speaking out of term his tears felt like lava running down his cheeks. He could smell the fresh dye burning and it hurt his lungs.
His Uncle immediately took him under his wing when he was banished "Zuko, my star," his Uncle pleaded when they were at the western airtemple "i need to dress your wound, the sun spirit would not want you to lose your eye"
Zuko reluctantly let his Uncle clean and dress his wound several times on their travels until it healed and scarred over. When it finally healed over Iroh smiled "there you go sunshine" he said as he wiped the tears forming in Zuko's good eye away "do not cry Prince Zuko, you are safe"
He still dyed his roots every week to uphold his place as prince. He did not know that his golden hair was his own symbol or royalty, that the sun chose him. Sure he knew the sun saved him, but he could not understand that it was because he was chosen.
When he arrived at the South pole and discovered the Avatar, he felt a breath of relief wash over him. He was going home, but he heavily underestimated the Avatar's abilities and lost him.
Soon he started a cat and mouse game with the monk and his two southern water tribe friends. After the northpole he slacked on dying his hair, not because he didnt want to, he simply didn't have the resources to do so. So his roots started to grow in gold.
"Well your looking golden Zuzu" Azula's voice startled Zuko when he walked into the hut they were staying in.
"Azula, what are you doing here" he glared at his younger sister
"You know, im my country. We greet one another before asking questions" she responded coldly "i was just passing through"
"To what do we owe the pleasure of your visit Princess Azula?" Iroh piped into the conversation
"No wonder you two click, always so quick and to the point. Father sent me, family is suddenly very important to him." She turned her head to look out the window "father regrets your banishment. He wants you home"
Zuko was frozen in place "father regrets?"
"I can see you need time to think this through, ill be by to collect you in the morning" Azula smiled softly before a flash of worry flashed on her face for a split second as she walked out the door.
When Azula's true intentions were revealed Zuko and Iroh managed to flee from her and her soldiers. When they stopped at the river to cut their hair Zuko looked at Iroh when he watched the inky hair fall into the river "your gold hair will conceal your identity fairly well my nephew"
"Yeah, it'll hide me pretty well" nobody had seen Zuko with his golden hair before. He hadnt seen his hair fully gold since age five.
On their travels his hair grew fairly fast now that it wasnt being dyed so often. It would catch the eye of several earth kindom citizens when he passed through towns. When he and Iroh were sitting against a building with a hat in front of them a young woman approached them and slipped a few gold pieces in "I know this might sound creepy, and I'm only asking this because I cannot resist. But may I kiss your hair sir? You can say no, I won't take my money back."
Zuko flushed a light shade of pink and scratched the back of his head "uhm, s-sure?" He mumbled out and leaned his head towards her. She placed a tender almost motherly kiss to the top of his head.
"Oh, your hair is so beautiful sir, it's like a million rays of sun. I wish you luck, i can only spare a little but if you'd take these small meals Im sure they'd help you" she said while offering two wrapped meals
They accepted and thanked her with small bows "what a nice young lady, huh?" Iroh said and nudged Zuko's arm
"Yeah, she was very nice"
When Zuko and Iroh found Azula and Aang battling in an abandoned earth town Azula pointed out his hair "wow Zuzu! You look just like a star! Where'd all that ink go?" When the fight ended and Iroh was injured Zukos cheeks felt like magma was pouring from his eyes.
"Zuko, I can hel-" Katara approached them
"LEAVE!" Zuko cried out, turning to Katara with golden tears running down his face.
While on the Ferry to Ba Sing Se Zuko was angry, not angry at anyone or anything in particular, he was just angry. "Hey" the voice of a man at his right side broke his brooding "names Jet"
"Lee" Zuko muttered out how cover name
"Yknow Lee, I hear the captain is eating like a king while we're stuck eating all his left overs" he paused "want to help me... liberate some food rations?"
It didn't take much to convince Zuko to join him. They liberated the food quickly without getting caught. Zuko found himself wandering the the front of the lower deck, leaning on the railing. "You know, as soon as I saw your scar, I knew exactly who you were" he paused as he approached Zuko "youre a refugee, like me. Thing is though, I've never seen hair like yours, let along your eyes."
Jet reached out and brushed Zuko's hair out of his face. "The freedom fighters could use a starlight like you, what do you say?"
Zuko smacked Jets hand away gently "thanks, but no thanks, you don't want me on your team, trust me"
In Ba Sing Se Iroh and Zuko made a life for themselves. They managed to have their own tea shop and apartment. Things were doing great, until Zuko went after the Avatar's bison, mind you he went there originally to take the bison captive, but when he saw that the creature was hurt he sheathed his swords and removed his mask, letting his golden hair free as he approached the bison "hey buddy, are you okay?" His voice was much softer than usual "oh no, here let me help you, this is going to hurt and I'm sorry, but I need to pull out this thorn" he talked to him the whole time he was pulling out thorns, gently rubbing the fur near it to sooth him.
When he pulled all of the thorns out he took out his swords "alright buddy, dont worry about the swords, im going to use them to cut you out of these chains, shhh its okay, you're okay" he continued to talk him through each of the six shackles "there we go big guy, now you need to get out of here, go find your friends- ah! Hey!" Appa knocked him over and gave him a thanks with a big sloppy dog like lick across his torso and face before taking off.
"You did well my nephew" Zuko shot up at his uncle's voice
"Uncle?" His startled voice wavered
"Now lets get you out of here and back home." And that they did.
When they made it back to their apartment Zuko felt dizzy, he held his head in his hand "I dont feel good" he managed to get out before collapsing and breaking a vase
"Zuko!" Iroh shouted as he rushed to his nephew to make sure he didnt hurt himself on any broken glass.
In his Angst coma Sokka heard his mother singing
"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me Happy! When skies are grey. You'll never know dear, how much I love you, so please don't hide my sunshine away"
His sisters voice mocked his hair "youre hair makes you look like a dandelion, a weed can't take the throne!" Her cackling filled his ears.
There was a blinding light and a woman appeared with flowing gold hair and bright fire eyes "my dear star, why do you let yourself hurt so much?"
"I don't, who are you?"
"I'm Agni my dear, you do know I chose you right?"
"Why?"
"You are special my dear, your mother made sure to get my attention and I am so glad she did" the woman spoke as she placed her hand on his cheek. Filling him with the image of her reaching out to kiss his eyes as a baby. "You are meant for great things little star." Her voice faded as she herself did
He soon woke from his coma with a fresh breath. Taking charge in making sure his Uncle's tea shop did well, and helping him where he could. However Azula soon found them and summoned them to the palace under the guise of serving tea to the king. Things didnt end well and Zuko was thrown into a cave beneath the City with Katara.
"Why would they throw you in here!" Her angry and hurt voice filled his ears as he tried not to make her feel more uncomfortable by staying as far from her as possible.
when she mentioned her mother he turned around and spoke "thats something we have in common"
"What?"
"My mother was my only source of safety... she was the only one who defended me against my sister and my father. And one day my father was ordered to... do something terrible and my mother protected me somehow, I dont know what happened but when I was half awake she told me goodbye and when I fully woke up she was gone."
When they were separated and Azula had Iroh trapped she approached "Zuko, nows your chance to come home. Help me defeat the avatar and you can come home. Without inking your hair. Isnt this what you've always wanted? You'll have your honor back, you'll have fathers love back"
And despite all he had gone through he still chose the path of returning to his father. When he did return his father wanted to dye his hair but Azula spoke up against it "father, if I may. Zuko's hair is a symbol of the fire goddess Agni, if he were to take the thrown it'd be best to show that she has chosen him"
"Yes, that is true. Alright, off with you two"
Reuniting with Mai wasnt smooth, she confessed to him that her and Ty Lee connected and while he was saddened he just smiled "I'm glad you two are with eachother, you work well"
On the day of Black sun, with the information he had learned from Iroh and armed with the fact that his father was practically powerless without his bending. He approached him.
"Zuko, what are you doing here?"
"Im here to tell the truth"
Ozai let out a snort "telling the truth during an eclipse?" He waved off his gaurds "what do you have to say"
"First of all, Azula lied to you, she was the one who shot down the avatar"
"What?! Why would she lie about that?"
"Because the avatars not dead, he's probably leading this invasion right now"
"Get out! Get out if you know what's good for you!"
"Thats another thing, I'm not taking orders from you anymore"
"You will obey me or face the consequences!" As Ozai stood Zuko drew his dual swords and took a stance
"Think again. I am going to speak my mind and you are going to listen"
He went on to question his father "you knew Agni chose me as a child and that was the reason my hair turned gold. You knew this and yet you hid that from the world, you darkened my hair for years, and you have the gull to tell me I was lucky to be born. You! The tyrannical leader set out to destroy the world. you! My own father challenged me to an Agni Kai just for speaking out of term, how could you possibly justify a duel with a child!"
"It was to teach you respect!"
"It was cruel and it was wrong"
"Then you have learned nothing!"
"No! I've learned everything, and I've had to do most of it on my own" he paused "Growing up we were taught that the war was our nations way of spread joy, what an incredible lie that was, the other nations don't love us, they fear us, and they are right to fear us, we've brought the world to an era of hate and suffering, now we need to fill it with one of peace and joy"
"Your uncle has gotten to you hasnt he" Ozai laughed
"Yes, he has, and I've come to another decision, im going to join the avatar, and im going to help him take you down."
After announcing this he turned to leave but stayed to learn about what happened to his mother
"She's alive?" He said in a soft voice as a single golden tear rolled down his cheek
"Perhaps," Ozai paused "now i see that banishment is far too small of a punishment for treason" he said as he gathered lightning and shot it at Zuko who quickly redirected it right back at him before escaping.
After finding that Iroh had broken out of prison Zuko fled the firenation in a small war ballon and followed the Avatar's Sky bison to the western air temples. Their first encounter didn't go so well and he managed to burn Toph's feet but after helping them defeat the assassin and managing to form his words more properly and giving a genuine apology to Toph he was on the team.
Some time after joining and managing to break Sokka's dad, Suki and Chit Sang out of prison they were all sitting around the fire. "So.. uhm Zuko" Aang started
Zuko turned to look at him "yeah?"
"I have to ask, pretty bunch nobody in the firenation has golden blonde hair right?" Zuko absentmindedly ran his fingers through his hair at the question
"Yeah, and when you were first chasing us your hair was black, whats up with that?" Sokka added
"Oh, uh, well my hair was always dyed black because my father doesn't like my gold hair..." he paused "when I was born, I was sick, so sick that my parents thought I was going to die. But my mother pleaded with Agni to spare me, she took me to the sun worship alter in the palace gardens at sunset and held me up, pleading. When the last ray of light from Agni, my hair turned golden and I began to cry. So, in a sense the sun gave me my life"
"Like Yue!" Sokka piped up
"Like who?"
"Princess Yue! She was born sick just like you, and the moon spirit saved her. Well, she's the moon spirit now"
"Woah woah wait, is this the girlfriend you said turned into the moon?"
"Yep!"
"Well, just don't go falling for Zuko now, dont want to have your first boyfriend turn into the sun" Suki teased him
"Hey, at least I'd have a full set of spirit lovers"
Zuko's face turned beet red and the group laughed at him. Over the next few weeks of them being in close quarters Zuko found that he was growing feelings for the water tribe boy. Anytime he'd look at him he felt his stomach do a flip. But he didnt have time to think about his feelings.
Even though the sun touched prince tried not to think about Sokka on the mission with Katara, he couldn't help it. When they were returning Katara piped up "I know you like him" she paused to watch his surprised face "its okay you know, its fine if you like him. I dont have like you to let my brother like you. I may be cold to you but im not a monster like your father" she tied off the sentence by staring off "and besides, if Agni chose you, I think you would be safe for Sokka"
When they got back he heard sokka shout "You're back! Thank La youre safe!" Turning to Katara he expected to see Sokka running to hug his sister. Instead he was tackled to the ground with a hug from Sokka "how did it go Katara?" He asked from the ground while quite literally snuggling into Zuko with this hug that was still very much happening.
"I found him, and he was just so pathetic, i couldnt kill him"
Sokka then stood up and helped Zuko to his feet and placed a quick sneaky kiss to his cheek before moving to hug his sister, leaving Zuko frozen in confusion. He remained frozen until Suki came up to him "he's trying to confess silently, he's weird like that, corner him later if you want to hear an actual confession"
He however didn't manage to corner the now seemingly overly flirty blue boy until they were at ember Island. It wasnt until just before bed when Sokka was walking past Zuko's bedroom door. He reached out grabbed Sokka's shirt and yanked him into the room before slamming the door shut and pinning him to it. "What are you doing?"
"Wh-what do you mean? You're the one who dragged me into your room, what are you doing?"
"Dont play dumb with me Sokka, you've been flirting with me since I got back from my trip with your sist-"
"Actually ive been flirting with you since the temples, you just didn't notice until I kissed you"
"You mean until you missed"
"What?"
Zuko smirked "you missed" he mumbled before leaning closer "you went for a kiss but you missed"
They ended up spending the night sharing a room and a bed. When the morning sun peaked through the windows Zuko curled back into sokka who in turn pulled him closer. Both refusing to wake up until Katara knocked on the door and opened it "breakfast is ready, if you two love birds want some warm food you better hury and I better not see any hickeys"
"Ugh! Katara we just cuddled!" Sokka said as he burried his face in Zuko's hair.
Katara simply laughed "alright, but still, hury up."
When the day of the comet came and Zuko had to separate from Sokka he saw the worry in his blue eyes "Ive got this Sokka, Agnj chose me remembe, besides, I've got Katara with me and she's powerful" he placed a quick kiss to Sokka's lips "go take down those ships, and I'll see you by the timd the sun rises tomorrow."
And he was right, even though he was shot with lightning and Sokka broke his leg they both came out of the battle alive and together. When Zuko woke up to find Sokka curled up against him he smiled and let out a soft breath of pink fire. Relief.
"Woah, do that again" Sokka's groggy 'just woke up' voice rumbled against his shoulder
"Sorry I didn't mean to wake you, do you mean this?" He let out another breath of fire, this time a pale purple
"I didn't know you could do other colors of fire"
"Well, I couldn't until I went to the sunwarriors, Agni spoke to me there"
After Zuko's Coronation the firenation began righting their wrongs. It was a long struggle for sure. However two years into his reign with Sokka having practically moved in he found that he would soon have a partner to help him through these struggles.
The day had only just begun but Sokka was dragging Zuko to the turtleduck pond where they often sat together to simply relax. Sokka seemed a little antsy this time though "what's wrong Sokka?"
"Uhm, well, I have something I need to ask you," he paused and reached into his pocket while sinkning down to one knee. Zuko's breath caught in his throat as he saw Sokka pull out a betrothal becklace, the band was made with a fine red silk and the center piece was gold with a carving of a sun with a wave inside of it. "Zuko," he took a shaky breath "you've been by my side for two years now, you've held my hand through war and peace, quite literally, and you've done so while loving me whole heartedly. I can't imagine my life without you in it." Zuko could feel golden tears threatening to fall fram his molten eyes "Zuko, will you marry me?"
"Yes!" He heard himself responding before he could even think "Agni, yes Sokka, of course I'll marry you!"
Sokka moved from his kneeling position to lifting Zuko up into a kiss, holding him right under his rear. Zuko held his face in his hands as he pressed his lips to Sokka's as he was lifted up quite unceremoniously.
Once he was set down Sokka helped him put on the betrothal necklace. He reached up to touch the Golden pendant and smiled up at Sokka with gold tears falling down his cheeks.
Their marraige was held not long after, joining the southern water tribe and the firenation in a strong Union with a mixed culture wedding blues, silvers, reds and golds filled the wedding and reception as well as suns and moons.
Agni smiled down on the wedding that day, her chosen sunshine found his moon.
Yue smiled on them that night as they stood on the balcony holding one another. The boy who protected her finally found his light.
>Woo boy that was a long one! I sure hope you enjoyed it!<

i finished “an innocent sin” and now i’m angery >:T
for dohye and dohye only i decided to continue this dumpster fire of a manwha.
click here for the gay flashback commentary (i.e. the only reason I’m here at all)
.
The gay flashback manwha concluded. And some chapter previews have dohye (the black haired guy) on them... Do... Do i want to know. Do i want to do that to myself again. Do i want to see if they get any smidge of closure......
this manwha may have nothing else aside from gay flashback going for it, but the abuse trauma when it's not sexualized is something. As in, thinking one is disgusting for it and that others may not want to be with them because they’ve been in that situations (”used” / dirtied etc).
WAIT THAT WASNT EVEN DOHYE ON THE CHAPTER PREVIEW [it was Noah’s brother Amon TvT] betrayal
????
what is goING ON
idc anymore. im here for dohye only.
W H Y [does the sister want to have a baby with her step-brother]
“Then we’ll be a real family” ... FAIR I GUESS????
WHERE IS DOYHE PLS HE'S STILL KIDNAPPED AND IT JUST ISNT COMINg uP andddd theyre doing it EW
okay so. yknow how they had a lost brother show up. and he's helping them now, so basically they're doing the princess and the pauper thing. And now Noah gets to have sex with his gf (ugh), meanwhile Amon, the brother posing as him, is getting assaulted :) I mean it has some fucked up cutting back and forth energy but GOD WHY
its impressive that he isnt losing the wig in this situation, honestly
also noah is still in his disguise and the gf was like "why tho" and he's like "well i have to get used to my disguise" LIKE BRO YOU DONT EVEN SEE IT AND NOW YOUR GF IS BASICALLY LOOKING AT ANOTHER GUY. I mean I know why. it's for the audience, to look as if that guy was having this. I rly wish they'd tone down the presentation of the assaults i do not want to see this presented horny
DOHYEEEE
oh
true he completely fell for Amon. so its not actually "i know what Noah looks like and it's not you", it's actually "i know what Amon looks like, and i know its you" sad life. ship food dead
I I AM ?????????????
I WILL THROW
IM ONLY HERE FOR HIM WHY'S HE DEAD NOW
YOU DONT SAY
WHAT. WHY. I MEAN I KNOW BC HE WAS ABOUT TO BLOW HIS COVER BUT BRUHHHH BRUHHHHH HOW DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE ?????????????????
he died as a desparate clingy man to the guy that looked like his first crush. he didnt get to clear anything up with Noah. he got nothing. I am impressed, honestly.
WAIT HE'S NOT DEAD
??? MAYBE IM CONFUSED
FOOOD
THIS BETTER NOT BE HIS DYING WORDS
GODDAMN IT
tragic until the end i guess. side couples are always such great angst food
MANNN maybe the secretary is lying?? to manipulate HMM
ig im finishing this dumpster fire. maybe some ship crumbs will come up pff
OH MAN
THIS IS SHIP FOOD [he’s wearing a wig bc of the swap thing]
Okay so. the secretary told the sister that he died. but we didnt see it. and she also didnt tell her that they're disguising as each other even tho that got revealed through the incident. if she's hiding that, maybe the death is a lie, since we didnt actually see it??? im clinging to crumbs here
ROASTED
but also jesus, amon is on a killing spree
WOAH
not sure if they're playing a recording or he's hallucinating or whats happening bc dohye is clearly dead but. angst good
SHE HUNG HIS BROTHER (Amon) IN FRONT OF HIM.
"if you give your heart to someone, that's how they'll end up" WHAT THE FUCK
trauma WOO
well this would be a great setup for DOHYE IF HE WASNT DEAD
TRUEEE... I FORGOT SHE KINDA DID LOOK LIKE HIS MOM BUT YOU DONT GOTTA COMMIT TO IT OH GOD WHY IS THIS SUCH A DUMPSTER FIRE
THE GOOD THING ABOTU THIS DEVELOPMENT IS THAT THEY'RE NOT FUCKING FOR ONCE which gives them the chance to actually be cute
but im still mad about Dohye >:(((
AMON LIVED???? WHAT
HOW
SIR
HOW DID YOU SURVIVE THAT
HOW DO YOU GET TO BE ALIvE BUT NOT DOHYE
lowkey hoping Dohye was just his weird look-alike from the sister’s clone arsenal or something. Dohye come back :((
WHY
WHY DOES HE ONLY GET A DREAM VISION
idc im not supernatural, this is Noah's mind and the person it thought of waking him up was Dohye >:T
i'm misinterpreting this out of SPITE
and they're fucking
sigh
No. stop. you're not cute. im angery about dohye >:(((
bonus is just pure porn, okay.
.
Still recommend the gay flashbacks and maybe part of the main story if you love yourself some tragic fucked up ships. I want a 2nd version of this manwha that’s just like,, “an innocent sin but every chapter not about dohye and noah is removed”...
I wish he could have seen him again.
Why did i get so invested in them, that wasn’t smart.
#an innocent sin#idk how to tag this at all#manwha#tori comments#tori has opinions#long post#tori talks

heyyyyy lets fucking do this
!!! caution !!! the person writing this thinks that the s2 finale was mostly bullshit so you may be prone to disagree if you like it !!! also kind of fucking long sorry !!!
ok so. edizzy huh. s. sigh.
yknow maybe this is bias cause I honestly didnt care much for this ship (or just. izzy in general) back in s1. now that im more interested in izzy as a character I give this ship a big ol NAH
I think, between izzy encouraging ed to embrace the life he hates as blackbeard in the s1 finale and ed repeatedly hurting izzy afterwards, both emotionally by undermining his worth and telling him he is disposable ("do your job or someone else will") and physically by straight up cutting off his toes and yknow, blowing his fucking leg off, it's pretty safe to say that these two are simply not meant to be. they are not good for each other. we are repeatedly shown this with the examples I just listed. we are shown that they heal better with other people, izzy with the crew and ed with stede. I think that point should have been established literally, with a conversation between them that came to the conclusion that yes, theyve been through hell and back together and care deeply for each other, but ultimately, they both represent the worst parts of their former lives to the other, and they cant move on like this. they arent good for each other. we should have seen them acknowledge that and make peace with it. not..... die in each other's arms. I dont like that, it makes it seem like their relationship was a good one, something to be cherished. they shouldnt have concluded izzy's life with a focus on his worst relationship, no, focusing on his relationship with the crew, whom he came to view as family, would have made much more sense to me. of course, they show how ed deals with the loss of izzy as well, their relationship was still important after all, but izzy should have said his final goodbye to his family.
now, could ed and izzy have, in some better alternate universe that was kinder to them, or in a distant future where they are both alive and better mentally, had a genuinely good friendship or even romance? maybe, sure. but that would be a time when they would be entirely different people, and personally, im not interested in all that, if you are, that's great!! also, if you're just interested in a version of events where everything is absolute shit and you just wanna see what sort of clusterfuck toxic mess of a relationship those traumatized weirdos would have, sure, write, read, draw or smth about that. i get it, sometimes the hellish couples are fun. again, im just personally not into that, so that's why this ship gets a nope from me. so, edizzy conclusion: stinky ship for me, but go for it if you want, just..... dont give me a "well here's how they are totally healthy in canon itself actually" I dont care I dont like it thats final for me
(adding this on after the fact since I realize I didnt properly address it sorry) btw them quickly getting over his death really comes to just. izzy's death in general being stupid and lazy writing imo. they really rushed it, tried to squeeze it in so the ending didnt have time to properly make it mean something.
now. NOW. shall we get to stizzy. those two really took off for me this season tbh, like they had the You're Hot And I'm Mad About It potential in s1, but them being canon felt like literal delusion. now though, (ignoring ep8 because fuck that) this season really showed that they can have an actual romance, complete with angst and drama and just. funny insane shenanigans.
like them slowly coming to respect each other? stede learning to adjust to piracy with izzy and izzy learning soft, sweet, Actual love, not the scraps of attention he ran after with edward? the whole edizzy fail really fuels this ship for me, like the whole comparison between the two captains, with izzy being under a captain who truly cares, truly sees him, appreciates him and actually maybe fucking loves him? which is really just what izzy longs after isnt it, even if he doesnt realize it yet. in a lot of ways, that tender love ed wants from stede is something lzzy wants too. and boy would stede give it to him. just!!! so many good moments between those two this whole season!! them bickering not out of hate but out of friendship, izzy looking at stede proudly when he punches a guy or scares a foe or makes his crew happy, stede being downright giddy at izzy's approval, izzy calling stede captain and being jealous (????idk of who but I choose the stizzy route fuck you) at stede and ed fucking, izzy telling stede he is needed!!!! they really came to care about each other and honestly another thing im updet about it the finale not focusing on how stede is dealing with the loss of izzy but idc fuck ep8. there is an alternate version of canon I hold dear to my heart, where stede and izzy are sailing the seas as the most infamous captain/first mate duo (husbands) ever, with their crew (children)
so yep!! idk if you could tell but I love this ship!!
lastly, not much to say about steddyhands tbh? theyre cute and all but I already expressed my feelings about the edizzy thing so maybe not like, steddyhands as in They Are All Dating Each Other, but steddyhands as in Stede Is Dating Both Ed And Izzy But Ed And Izzy Aren't Dating Because I Literally Just Wrote Two Whole Paragraphs About Why Not
huge apology to op for rambling on this post so much? I just thought this was a good opportunity to talk about my opinions on the whole thing lol
(oh and just to clear it up, I love blackbonnet and ed as well. some of my wording in my last few posts makes it seem like I dont like ed at all, I do!! I just think his arc could have been better but I hold blackbonnet gently as well, this post just isnt about them)
I have a legitimate question for everyone that's still hanging on. If you're still interested in shipping them, how do you view edizzy as a pair post s2? This extends to stizzy and steddyhands too.
I only really started paying attention to this fandom/the pairs in s2 so I'm really late and before I could really get into things the show did... that...I'm really curious about how people view these pairs now. Cause to me, their reaction to things post-that happening kinda made it seem like they barely even cared about Izzy. (Don't get me wrong Ed crying over Izzy's body was emotional so I mean everything after that moment.)

summary in case u dont wanna read: y does this fandom COMPLETELY ignore the racial tensions in the 1960s, especially when this book takes place in TULSA
hey guys uhhh ik this acc is always all “happy happy joy joy” but to be serious w yall for a second
why does this fandom ignore the racial aspects if the 1960s????? like ofc ik it wasnt a big part of the story like at all, but it was still a BIG part of their time period
and yea ik it was kinda brushed on in twttin it wasnt rlly talked about more by the book OR the fandom
and no this isnt me saying “u should always be focusing on the racial aspects in ur fanfics of the outsiders!!!!!” what im saying is stop completely ignoring it, it was a very much real thing
and for the love of GOD dont treat it like just a regular old angst prompt, treat it like a real thing bc it was and IS a real thing
also the book is in tulsa fucking oklahoma yknow, where the tulsa race massacre occurred??????where a white mob attacked black owned homes and businesses for 18 hours straight?????it literally happened in 1921 the people who lived through and witnessed all that happening in tulsa were most likely still very much alive while the events of the book was happening and passing in their racist beliefs onto their family
and yknow what im gonna say it, i feel like the fandom doesnt rlly talk about racism in the 60s when it comes to the outsiders bc half of this fandom is white people, ur either 1) to scared to talk about the topic bc ur afraid ur gonna offend poc or just dont know how to or 2) u just straight up ignore it bc its fiction well heres my rebuttal 1) u can talk or write about racism in ur fanfics without saying slurs, derogatory, terms etc., you could literally just show the experience of a poc in the 1960s, just read real accounts from poc in the 1960s or somethin 2) this book is realistic fiction, the characters and plot lines r all fiction, but the actual setting, time period, n all that jazz are all REALISTIC the racism didnt just magically go away
and ik niggas r gonna go on and say “just ignore it it wasnt a big part of the story🤓” “SE Hinton didnt talk about racism in the book” se hinton is a white woman who made the book in 1967 i can assure u she didnt even give a second thought to talk about it in her book and im a poc and i dont have the pleasure of “just ignoring” the racism, Mackenzie , this post might not get a lot of traction like my other post for obvious reasons but at least you cant say i didnt say anything, plus if that happens all that would do is prove my exact fucking point
and ik some of yall r gonna b uncomfortable reading this but i cant find a singular fuck to give so take it up w ya mama or somethin🤷🏽♀️
PS dont make a white savior fan fic
