Part 3: Why Louis Tomlinson is getting screwed over as an artist

I will fill in the connections and details. Main players are: SC, R.ob Str.inger, Ho.ward Stri.nger

We identified SC and Rob plenty of times but never made the connection of WHO ELSE is managing the UK side. We left off at R.ob wanting a songwriting career from Louis. In AOTV, Louis mentions talking to his mom about next steps. He said he wanted to sing. I believe that refers to this time period when he was being led astray and shuffled into behind the scenes activities.

During this 2016 period, Louis was trying (unsuccessful, going back to his tweet) to get his girl band going. The baby, Rob aiming for songwriting negotiations, and the girl band ate up 2016, along with the debut of Just Hold On and mom's health declining. | x

Louis contributed a couple songs (Blackbeard, EXO) but wrote for himself or was not credited/alias.

He eventually was signed UNDER Sony to RCA, as mentioned earlier, a month later to Epic, and sat dormant until Rob's very close friend David Massey took over.

Before Louis could leave Epic, it looks as though Louis had to put in some grunt work during "the lost years." Narnia blog highlighted this beautifully with this summary of events in 2018, ALL focused on Simon or Rob. Sounds interesting. Did they string along Louis with no intention of letting him have that solo career that he chose over songwriting for Rob? We will never know...

Louis was tapped for some VERY public events, forced to look excited and supportive. Oh look, the timing...

He FINALLY signed once xfactor was over in February 2019. He was made to hold off until then. I went over the single released and the album not until January 2020. Which leads us to: Airplay.

Airplay has lacked for both the Walls and FITF albums, going as far as being blacklisted/shadowbanned from B.BC radio. In the report out from BMG, Louis was not played until he was the #1 album (again, with NO AIRPLAY) and they very much begrudgingly played it to stop the calls.

BBC loved it but .. it was stopped during discussions with higher ups? Too indie? Something was a miss. It was being stopped as other artists have before (Madonna was listed because "She was too old to play," other bands just completely halted for no reason at all.)

Going back...Remember the person who was the head of Sony, who wanted a boyband, that partnered with SC and X.factor? That was HOW.ARD STR.INGER. Rob's brother. And what has he done for his career? Head of CBS, then Head of Sony Music, then a BOARD MEMBER AT BBC. —Who did Louis reject not once, but possibly twice, to come on as songwriting? Rob. —And who caused a lot of issues while in 1D, pursuing a new direction, taking control of the band? Louis. —Who was the head during that time? Rob. —Who does Louis have connections to as well that could make Rob sweat? HARRY.

Harry sits as So.ny and Colum.bias #1 earner. Louis has bucked Ro.b many times over the years and Ro.b wanted Louis behind the scenes, not a solo career. —Who said no to R.ob? Louis. —Who could that influence? Their biggest earner.

If you take H out of the equation, it's still the same result. Louis has defied SC, he has defied R.ob, and the last way to shut him down was a link to UK radio. As a non executive board member, that solely means brother Ho.ward doesn't work for BBC, but is on the board. "Dont play this kid" is all that needed to be said.

As a recap: —HS made a deal with SC for TXF to be under S.ony. —SC tries to shuffle LT into management. —RS tried to get LT on a songwriting roster, less trouble keeping him closer. —LT refused, albums delayed. —Jumps hoops, album out '20, '22. —RS BBC member BMG told NO, we can't play him.

LTs ENTIRE CAREER from 2010-2023 has been under Ho.ward, SC, and Rob's control some way or another, not even mentioning any OTHER issues on top of music (media portrayal, etc.).

Louis on attempting to get radio play and realizing it is all talk versus having shows that are transactional, black and white. | x (vid down atm)

[macgirlism]

watching sunny with mac vision just means i get so excited whenever he's on screen like "oh! there he is again!" dumb bitch he's a main character of course he's there

[baldursgate3tempobsessed]

Hihi! I went on anon cause my main blog is strictly sfw, but I promise I'm an adult(29). Anyways, I had this idea of Ascended Astarion teasing Tav/Reader in front of a mirror. He can't see himself, but loves the way Tav/Reader shudders under his touch and them getting more and more embarrassed because all they can see is themselves getting riled up by seemingly nothing, but when they look down, ofc they see his hands working magic across their body.

Lol ty for the clarification and ask! I've been needing some nsfw practice!

Ascended Astarion nsfw under the cut, 18 + warnings. Like this is not implied smut. It is smut, graphic. Possessive, obsessive, manipulative, bad vampire man who loves you. As much as he's capable of. Morally gray human Tav from the start to here. It's only downhill from here baby, m/f angle. But if that doesnt fufill the dream let me know and I can make a gender neutral/ gender nonspecfic no prob! And probably less intense too because this is angsty~~~

Like I went ham, this is a whole ass fic now💀

You frowned at yourself in the bedroom mirror, adjusting your hair for the umpteenth time. It still didn't look right, despite what felt like hours of practice that you'd put into the intricate style.

You sighed as let one of your braids fall down, dissatisfied with what you saw. You didn't exactly look the part of an all-powerful vampire's consort, or at least not with the company you've recently been keeping. But it turned out a significant part of taking over Baldur's Gate was trenched in politics, meetings, balls, social events created for the sole purpose of mind games.

It was exhausting, or at least it was for you. But Astarion seemed to take to it like a duck to water. This life suited him, one of power games and subterfuge, and more often than not, murder. Not that you minded. You were just happy that he was having fun. That he was finally free after all of those years of torment. Even if he was using that freedom for… less than savory ends.

But despite his goals, you had sworn to him that you would never stray. And you intended on making good on that promise.

You just wished that he didn't insist on you being there for all of his "business". You hadn't realized how literal he had been about the whole sitting in his lap plan. It had taken a half-hour conversation to even convince him that no, you would not be doing so in the nude. He still hadn't given up on convincing you off that plan, but you highly doubted that it would help with your current level of heightened insecurity.

Maybe you were worrying for no reason. It wasn't Astarion who made you feel out of place. Well… it was, but not because of anything he did. Just… who he had become. He was so different now, so much colder to everything and everyone but you. More calculating, less forgiving, and just perfect for working with the most dangerous individuals in the mortal plane.

You seemed to be the only living thing he could relax around anymore, the only person who could soften him. It was strange really. You used to remember his softer side, before the ritual. The way his heart would hurt for children and animals alike, despite his failed attempts to hide it. His soft spot for Karlach, those who were brave and brazen, always willing to do the right thing despite the risks. The kind smile he used to have, reserved for beautiful things like the sunrise, the sunset.

Gone, all of it. It was a fact that you didn't like to think about. What you both gave up, things could have been; there was no point to it anyway. It was over. You gave Astarion the choice, this is what came of that. So here you were, obsessing over your appearance in preparation for a meeting with a high-ranking devil.

How things had changed.

You had no idea if you would ever find a way to match up with the company he kept around these days. Maybe it was your own fault for surrounding yourself with otherworldly creatures, but it was hard not to feel inadequate.

It didn't help that whenever you even slightly alluded to that insecurity, Astarion was more than ready to remind you of your… "options".

"You can join us whenever you'd like my treasure," Astarion would say with a creeping grin, "Just one bite, and we can be sure you'll be mine forever. Would that be so bad?"

It was a tempting offer, one that you kept insisting on refusing. You loved Astarion more than anything. But… you wanted that love to stay your choice. An obligation you maintained of your own free will. It's not that you didn't trust him… but to be a spawn had too many implications for you to handle.

"What has you pouting sweet thing?"

You startled when hands suddenly settled on your hip, gripping through the thin fabric of your nightdress. You looked back, relaxing the slightest bit to see Astarion smiling down at you, amused at the fact he'd managed to sneak up on you through the mirror.

"You said you weren't going to do that anymore," You whined as you leaned back into him, your eyes turning back to the mirror. You could see the fabric of your slip indented under his hands, ghost-like without his actual image reflecting back.

"I lied," Astarion said simply, leaning down to breathe you in from the crook of your neck, "Now what are you thinking about pet? I can tell something's on your mind."

You bit your lip, debating for a moment if you should tell him or not. But it's not like he would let it drop, and he was way too good at being able to tell when you were lying. Might as well come clean.

You sighed, "I don't…I don't know if I'm cut out for this."

You expected him to huff at you, maybe even laugh. But instead, the grip he had on you tightened, hard enough to make you gasp. You could feel his fangs scraping against your delicate skin, scratching hard enough to cause pinpricks of blood to bead out.

"And why would you ever think a thing like that?" Astarion asked, his voice harsh and low, "Where else would you be if not by my side hm? Please, enlighten me."

You gulped, your heart rate starting to pick up. You hadn't meant it like that, "That's not what I meant-"

"Then what else could it have meant?" Astarion shot back, his hands digging into you, surely ready to leave finger-shaped bruises. Suddenly he was using that same grip to drag you backward to the bed, effortlessly settling you between his spread legs.

All while managing to still be right in sight of the mirror. You could feel your cheeks redden as his hands started to wander, unceremoniously tugging down the straps of your nightdress to reveal your chest. That was another thing about life after the ritual that had been a surprise, just how different Astarion's sex drive was. It's not like he was a prude before, far from it, but now he was insatiable. Always ready and willing to touch you whenever the urge struck him. Often enough for you to eventually come to the thrilling, if not slightly disturbed realization, that… he was training you. Training your body to always want his touch.

And tonight was no different. You could already feel yourself getting wet, and he had barely done anything yet. But then suddenly he was pinching your nipple harshly, hissing in your ear, "I expect an answer when I ask you a question darling."

You bit back a moan, trying to remember what you were even arguing about as he started to play with your breasts, "I-I didn't mean it like that. I just… I don't want to embarrass you."

It was humiliating to admit but it was true. Not many people of Astarion's caliber insisted on a singular lover. There were so many people after him now, people with more power, more beauty, and grace. You didn't match up. You couldn't.

"Nonsense," Astarion dismissed, his hands wandering down to tear off more of your clothing, "Look at you. You were made for this life. Made for me. You're gorgeous."

The compliments mixed with the harsh feeling of his hands ripping your nightdress in two was quite the experience. You could feel his own hardness pressing into your backside, twitching as he threw your ruined clothing to the side.

Then he was gripping your chin, forcing your head back up to stare into the mirror in front of you, "I said look."

You obeyed, eyes widening at what you saw. It was so strange to see yourself like this, fully exposed with your legs spread apart, flushed and panting. It nearly gave the illusion that your very image was what was causing the wetness between your legs, instead of the invisible man toying with you.

You swallowed, your throat dry as Astarion's hands wandered lower, a feather-light touch tracing up and down your slit, "You are everything. The sole reason that I'm the man I am today. There is nowhere else you should be than right here."

"But-" You gasped, your words interrupted by a sharp slap to your inner thigh. You could see your skin start to redden in the mirror, a perfect imprint left in it's wake.

"Darling, are you questioning my judgment? What on earth made you think that was a good idea?"

You frantically shook your head, moaning when his fingers delved deeper, playing with your slick folds, "I-I'm not. I didn't- I'm sorry."

You whined as he roughly pinched your clit, his other hand moving upward to do the same to your heaving chest.

He was starting to grind his hardness against you, a tease of more to come as he murmured in your ear, "There's my good girl. Was that so hard?"

You shook your head, gasping as he finally dipped his long fingers into your cunt. You were already so sensitive, humiliatingly close in a matter of minutes.

"So gorgeous," Astarion sighed, staring straight ahead to the sole image of you, whimpering as he finger-fucked your pussy, "So needy. Can you see how wet you are pet?"

You could, you were leaking around his fingers, that needy, intense feeling getting more and more intense by the moment. It was so embarrassing seeing yourself like this, enough so that you snapped your eyes shut.

A bad idea. Astarion tutted at you, landing another sudden and hard slap to your thigh, "None of that. I told you to look. Or else."

You snapped your eyes back open, watching yourself whimper and gasp as you were played with, the harsh movement of his hand jostling your breasts. You weren't going to last much longer, not with the image of you being taken apart, the feeling of him inside you, the mean edge to your love's words.

"You're such a silly little thing, aren't you?" Astarion growled, fucking you harder and faster. You were so close, but you weren't stupid enough to come without permission. Not after what he did the last time, "Doubting me. Do you really think I don't know what's best for you? What's best for us?"

"No," You whimpered, your hips arching backward to rub harder into his erection, "You're right, I-I'm yours. C-Can I come now? Please?"

"Beg me and maybe I'll think about it," Astarion meanly laughed, relishing in the gush of slick his harshness coaxed from between your legs, "Beg and apologize. Apologize for doubting us. For doubting me."

You could barely get the words out through your own gasps, tears prickling in the corner of your eyes, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I-I didn't mean it!"

"Good girl," Astarion huskily laughed, using a clever thumb to rub over your swollen clit, "Now tell me you love me."

"I love you," You said easily, meaning every word, "I love you more than anything.

"Tell me you'll never leave me. Ever."

There was something else behind that promise. An obvious implication that your fucked-out brain was too distracted to see.

"Never," You promised, reaching back for you him. You curled your fingers into his hair. pulling his head down to press his mouth against your throat. An open invitation, "I'll always be with you."

Astarion groaned against your skin, his fangs so close to piercing, "Precious pet, how could I ever want anything else? Come darling, you've earned it."

Then he was biting you, the brief flash of pain the perfect trigger for you to fall over the edge. You came with an embarrassingly high-pitched whine, slumping back into Astarion as he drank from your throat.

You looked as much of a mess as you felt, the stickiness between your thighs glistening in the light. You watched yourself, whimpering as Astarion slipped his fingers out. Just to tap them against your lips, forcing them into your mouth to suck on.

You moaned around them, light-headed as Astarion popped off of your throat. You sighed as he licked at the wound, enjoying the brief moment of rest. You weren't naive enough to think that you were done yet. Not when Astarion was still hard, his cock pulsing against you.

"See?" Astarion huskily laughed, licking the blood off of his lips while he played with your tongue, "You're perfect. Perfect and mine."

Screen Shrink (#1?): Milo Change

**This was written for funsies, strictly for funsies, and only for funsies. This is not meant to be taken seriously or as fact**

Okay, so...changing gears a little bit here from my typical game schpiels, but it's like, we've been hanging out together for a few months now, yeah? Yeah, so it only makes sense that I can share some of these little weird quips of mine.

So, fun fact, I am a mental health therapist~! So that means that I make money by listening to people vent to me about their problems, concerns, traumas, and all of that and helping them work through it. Another thing that I do for money is diagnose them. Kinda cool, huh?

Now, the reason why I shared that with you is because, I involuntarily start diagnosing characters when I watch TV and movies, or read a story or news article, or play video games...or visual novels lol. Anyways, the sole reason of this post being created was because I've been plagued with these thoughts for a while, and no one I know IRL either play or will admit that they play visual novels, so I have no one to share these specific thoughts with.

I may or may not make this a thing on my blog but meh. I just have to get this one in particular out. All of that being said...tell me that (OG) Milo Change doesn't meet the criteria for Adjustment Disorder with Mixed Anxiety and Depressed Mood.

Please let me explain, because this has been burning me for months.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! Okay, so listen... Actually, let me preface this first.

People are very unique and very odd, and because of that, people don't always fit cleanly into a diagnosis. Why did I mention that? Because, sometimes, based on what a client is describing, it can fit the criteria of a certain condition but not meet the exact requirements. It's like when doctors diagnose an illness; you don't have the exact 3 symptoms for the flu, but you have 2 of them, so they diagnose and treat it like the flu until proven otherwise, hence why they say "flu-like" symptoms versus just "the flu".

Okay, so anyways, I said that, because some of you are probably like "Nah, Milo definitely has anxiety", and you wouldn't be wrong! Milo absolutely fits the criteria for Generalized Anxiety Disorder, but remember that thing I mentioned about the "flu-like" symptoms? Therapists do the same thing. We either give a broad/general diagnosis (because we've gotta bill them under something, even if it's just very mild depression, so we can keep seeing them) or we give an extremely specific one; Milo's is -- or appears to be, because again, people are unique and odd, and what I see another therapist may not -- an extremely specific one, which is Adjustment Disorder with Anxiety and Depressed Mood.

In order to meet the criteria of Adjustment Disorder, you pretty much would have had to undergo a big change within the last 3 months, like a divorce, getting out of jail, having people move in, or something of the sort. Now, the "mixed anxiety and depressed mood" are what are known to be "specifiers" and those are pretty much exactly what they sound like -- they make the diagnosis more specific or explain it a bit more.

All that being said, it appears that Milo meets the criteria for Adjustment Disorder with Anxiety and Depressed Mood because:

- He had a major change in scenery from a small town to a bustling, city-based campus (adjustment) - Technically, we could include that he's getting used to being this psycho's someone's significant other...yeah, let's add that as an extra layer (adjustment) - He also has very low self-esteem and self-worth, so that very likely means he struggles with feelings of worthlessness (depression) - He be a touch starved boy (depression) - He has a pretty shitty set of "friends" that frequently mistreat him (depression), and this poor kid is probably trying to do everything in his power not to piss them off, but it's a constant guessing game (anxiety) - But he also opts to have them versus no one at all because it's hard enough putting yourself out there to meet new people to start with. Still though, it's like...damn, to be mistreated or to be lonely (depression and anxiety) - He's pretty jumpy when you speak to him, stutters a lot, (it looks like) he fidgets with his clothing, he's a nail biter, and frequently avoids eye contact (anxiety) - Not to mention that this poor baby has a general mistrust of new people being nice to him since he immediately thinks that they want something from him or playing a joke on him (anxiety)

Like, come on. You cannot TELL ME that that isn't -- likely -- adjustment disorder with anxiety and depressed mood. The man is 100% an anxious wreck, but like, shit, I would be, too, if I left my familiar shitty environment to a totally new shitty environment; I knew what to expect at home, not so much here, ya get me?

Now, would I change this diagnosis down the line? Absolutely, because, if he's still an anxious wreck 6 months down the line, clearly it wasn't the change in environment that had him on edge like that, or rather that's not the thing that's continued to have him on edge like that. Initial visit, though? This is 100% what I would've given him if I did his assessment.

I just had to get this off my chest. I've kept this to myself for MONTHS now, and I just couldn't anymore man! But what do you think? You think another diagnosis would've fit him better? Meh, probably.

Anyways, thanks for letting me share that. I have a lot more characters I have diagnosis for that I'd love to share one day. That honestly may be sooner rather than later since I've broken the seal lol.

Welp, I've met my yap quota for the day...at about 2 in the morning (as of writing this) lmao. Big preesh for getting this far. Remember to drink water, don't be dumb, and hope to see you around~!

[ranfordgallus]

I think i remember the sole reason of creating a tumblr account was to do ask blogs of like characters answering questions like that, cuz like i ALWAYS wanted to do those ask blogs ever since i watched other fandoms do it on youtube compilations and dubs but i was too scared to go to tumblr because...well i wasnt used to it

God i remember being so desperate for people to ask me questions to the kratt brothers and I'd tweak out whenever someone gives me a question on my ask blog...life ist gut

[tea-with-evan-and-me]

hey tweam, i know it's a bummer but it's time for a pinned announcement post due to the insane amount of hate messages i am receiving daily regarding natalie. if you're a normal, decent person, feel free to scroll past, disregard, and tumblr on…

RE: NATALIE AND EVAN

since some of you non-tweam members like to thrust your ugliest inner musings anonymously into my ask box and seem to think that's okay, let me make one thing clear: i don't tolerate hate. and i won't tolerate unfair criticism and negativity towards natalie, because up to this point, not one of you have brought forth a legitimate critique. no, natalie posting evan on instagram, going with him to events, just publicly existing as a couple.. is NOT ''using him for fame''. that's called being his girlfriend, and those are all normal things for couples to do. you wanting evan to either not date at all, or do so in utter secrecy to protect your jealous heart is NOT a legitimate reason to dislike natalie. if she does something problematic, then yes, you have every right to voice your feelings and i would absolutely allow that (civil) conversation - until then, i suggest that you print your message out on the thickest, roughest card stock you can find at your local office depot, wipe your ass with it, and then throw it in the trash where it belongs as i won't be entertaining you.

i remember all too well the slippery slope with frances, and the way people justified terrible behavior towards that woman by pointing to perceived ''wrongs'' that apparently meant it was okay to bully her, not just on here, but on her own social media. was there some fair, due criticism somewhere underneath all of that? absolutely, but it was never truly about that. some ''fans'' simply want evan to date villainous women so that they can ''legitimately'' hate on them without being called a hater - and if the woman isn't an actual villain, they will create a narrative that paints her as one. that's why they have all this smoke for fran, haley lu, now natalie.. but it's crickets for emma, who is well-known for being awful. even gftwd, who would've told you frances was satan incarnate, defended emvan. why? because deep down, they like evan with emma because she's an overtly bad person and they could hate her freely if emvan got back together. oh, they'd change their tunes quick.. but they aren't together, so they focus elsewhere. yet fran, whose worst offense was being an internet troll and edgelord, had multiple hate blogs, discord servers, instagram accounts, etc. all dedicated to tearing her down and actively encouraging other people to join in. and that's exactly what some of you unstable weirdos are preparing to do to natalie, which i can't stop you from doing - hell, rosa already posted the address to a place natalie was staying and endangered her safety and potentially evan's. once you cross a certain line, good luck going back. some of you never learn.

we're all here because we are fans of evan, not fans of the women he dates. you are not obligated to like natalie and talk about her, not with me or anyone else. in fact, i encourage discussion that deviates from the relationship chat and my hope is that as evan and natalie settle into a long-term relationship, a sense of normalcy can begin to form where people do not feel so tense about something that really should not be our concern. it can be background noise. if he's happy, she's not causing problems, and they appear to have a healthy union.. what's there to hate? we're here to support the man, not tear him down. this is a major reason for the disdain i have for the tarot blog(s) currently running - your sole purpose for being on this app and engaging in fandom should not be to incessantly, repeatedly, multiple times a day be putting out undeserved negative commentary about evan, his relationship, and the woman he is dating. how would YOU feel if, completely unprompted by any controversy, someone decided they were going to make it their job to obsessively post negative things about YOUR relationship? hell, at least be fair! if any of you just need an outlet, idk, maybe start shit talking the woman evan dated for nearly a decade who has shown herself to be a literal demon instead lmfao at least she is deserving of your ire. i understand that this is a gossip and discussion blog, and by default, it can turn intrusive in nature. but it does not have to be negative in nature.

again.. can you imagine if you were just minding your own business, living life, dating someone.. and a stranger who has no reason to speak out against you decides to take offense to another person calling you gorgeous, to the point they have to log onto tumblr and anonymously message a blog to announce that they think it's ridiculous someone has called you attractive.. oh, and by the way, your current boyfriend's ex? now, SHE'S gorgeous! not you though, you're mid. yeah, i'm pretty sure you would realize real quick just how fucking uncouth that message was.

anyway, if this miserable behavior happens to be your jam, your IP address will be blocked from sending me messages and any that i do receive will be promptly deleted unless it's juicy enough that i will derive pleasure from roasting your ignorant ass.

to all the truly funny, kind-hearted, intelligent folks who frequent this blog and brighten my day with your messages and discussions.. love ya.

[neptunescore]

do you also call it max for the things he’s done or is that only reserved for lando?

(no hate just asking)

Hi, the reason I don't have any posts calling out max or other drivers is solely bc since I've started this blog they haven't done anything that needs calling out, and I've never gotten an ask regarding it to post abt it. I've brought up actions of a few other drivers beside lando, but he really takes the cake with the amount of stuff he's done since I started posting :]

And to just add to this, if Carlos/ Max / Charles or ANY of my other fave drivers do do something, then I WILL post abt it, no matter if they're faves or not! I've already expressed my disappointment on the fact that most drivers (them included) have chosen to stay silent abt palestine and not create awareness.

Also, the only controversial thing I can think of Max doing was when he called Lance that slur (Mo*gol) 3 years ago. Honestly, I remember listening to that radio and feeling disgusted about the fact that word even left his mouth, and to this day, I still feel irritated with him about that. The thing is, though, that this man acknowledged what he said and im pretty sure he posted an apology abt it (doesn't fix anything but ull see the point I'm tryna make) and from what ive seen he hasn't used that word since then (obv i have no clue if he acc has or hasnt in his personal life tho). my personal problem with Lando is that he WONT acknowledge all these harmful things he's doing and he just goes abt normally after them.

Anyway nonnie, I hope that answered ur question!!! <3

[shellxrls]

babe r u okay we haven’t seen you for ages :/

SORRY NONNIE. i feel like i shld do a clarification post cuz i've gotten a few asks and i feel kinda bad for leaving u guys in the dark 😭. i've just been putting this off cuz i've been tired and stressed coupled with other reasons (that i'll explain) that make me not want to publicly interact on this blog:

recently i've noticed such a large uprise in hate on this app (ranging from pro-israel/anti-palestine posts to mutuals outside of my fandoms being called aggressive slurs to ppl within the obx fandom consistently expressing opinions of dislike and resentment to authors for simply writing what they want) - also largely made up of anon asks with the foundation of racial or sexuality based hate (which i won't go into depth ab but ppl definitely pick and choose who to send hate to based on those factors - pisses me the fuck off more than anything bcuz i don't come on this app to be bombarded with racism and reminders of my racial perception in this world, regardless of whether its directed at me or mutuals).

another thing, (which ik has been said forever but continues to remain important), the lack of support and interaction for/with writers on this app is definitely very discouraging. i no longer feel supported by the community i've created and the truth is i need that interaction to keep writing and engage my motivation otherwise i feel like what i'm doing on this app is pointless.

no one logs onto this app to listen to me rant ab personal issues, and so i wont' go into extensive detail - but i've consistently used tumblr to escape my personal life, and the burdens and stress that come with. ofc i'm a writer, but wayyy beyond that this is intended to be my safe space where i can enjoy and simply be myself and let go of personal stress as well as interact happily w like-minded ppl. due to this, i've made an effort to take time out of my own life and duties to write and to interact because of the community. recently however i find myself more and more anxious to even open the app and look at my notifs, and whenever i do open the app i make myself feel bad by comparing myself to other writers - which is completely normal occasionally, but at this point its not as easy to shake considering all the factors listed above. its unfortunate to say but it simply hasn't felt worth it to be on this app and interact for while now for me.

before anyone says i'm being too sensitive or its my sole purpose to write - pls remember that this is entirely my blog, i can choose what my motivations are for being on this app and its not a stretch to kindly ask for more in terms of stopping hate and simply being more supportive if u do genuinely like an author and their works.

ultimately i've been both a fan/reader and a writer on this app for multiple years atp, i can understand both perspectives but i've honestly never felt this disconnected and upset ab a blog before. I understand that not everyone is to blame, and i'm sorry to those who've been kind & active supporters, but my public interactions have been limited and may continue to be bcuz i feel v unsure & stagnant atm.

the only 'exception' to this is my mutuals, i love them all obv and their works, & so i'm continuing to interact w them as per normal, and so i am active on the app & i'm definitely not entirely gone by any means. if anything i just need a few more days to reconsider, but we'll see.

There was a post on here a while back which described navigating social spaces while Autistic like trying to walk through a minefield. One wrong move and, well, you blow up. blowing up hurts, so you create systems, rules, you try and find a rhyme or reason as to how the explosives are laid out so that you might make it through unscathed. I've come to know this as "Masking".

There's a moment where every autistic realizes that they are different, because they step on a mine that, to an allistic, isn't even there. It's a crushing weight to know that there is a seemingly invisible force that will hurt them again and again unless they hide who they are (begin to mask) and try to forge a path. For me it was middle school when I learned this; when I realized I didn't truly have any friends because public school is cruel and othering. So, I changed how I spoke, learned how to tell jokes, developed hobbies that would make me more likable (which is how I started art) until, finally, 8 years later It seemed like I was on the other of the field: I had finally made it.

That all shattered in an instant, in 2021, a decisive step ended with a fireball so large fragments of me are still being found in the field. So, hurt and stricken with the loss of acceptance that I so briefly had, I did the other option that post talked about: I stayed still. Just..didn't move, because if I did I risked being hurt again. New year's 2022 I had moved up north, but still I remained where I was. 2023 came and began to pass, and instead of keeping pace I watched as it sped by.

To put it bluntly, I was burnt out both socially and in my art, full of resentment for what hurt me and shame for not being able to mask as effectively; that version of me had died in the explosion. All these terrible feelings reached a boil when my shame and resentment towards myself was inadvertently aimed towards someone I loved. In that moment I saw that I was rotting...

And I saw how empty I was.

So much of myself previously was dedicated solely to masking in an attempt to fit in, that when fitting in became no longer an option that huge part of myself became void of purpose, and so that part of me itself became a void.

I don't really remember the months after that, but in October I had gotten my hands on a book: "Unmasking Autism" by Devon Price. The introduction to that book was like an electric shock to my heart, revitalizing me and reversing the decay- his and other autistic folk's experiences described in the book was so alike mine that I suddenly understood my emptiness and was aware of the fractured mask hanging from my face. Armed with knowledge of my ailment the author then gave me a path out of the minefield...back from whence I came. Retrace my steps. Understand previous blunders, forgive myself for them, and exit the field to forge my own way to live and navigate life freely without fear of being reduced to bits.

I will struggle to post this, I know I will. Part of me masking, one of my guiding rules through the mines was to *never* make sincere personal posts because "sincerity from someone you follow who's not known for it is uncomfortable" (getting into the why of this is a whole other can of worms). But I will do it anyways, because the time for me being avoidant of my feelings are over.

In 2024, I will be fully embracing my autism. I don't know what i'll look like without the mask- I probably still haven't gotten rid of it fully- But I will be more genuine...probably uncomfortably so, My blog will be more self-serving (and probably my art too once I detangle my worth as an artist from how "good" it looks), I'll reblog cringy fandom stuff and say weird things and blog at length about how much I love airplanes and large industrial systems and freak furry things. I will be deadpan and monotone and just be so unapologetically autistic, because then i'll truly be me. ok bye bye

your casts are diverse in a very authentic way!! your writing is super vivid and distinct!!! your characters are so fun and real and interesting and I'm always curious to know more about them!!!!!

just wanted you to know that

you've mentioned feeling burnt out if I remember correctly so I should also mention: take all the time you need. i will be here regardless

— 🎄

Hey so this is like the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me??? 😭😭😭 you're probably the sole reason why I continue writing at this point and otherwise would have given up on this blog a long while ago. Thank you so so so so so much for your support always!!!!

[frumfrumfroo]

I hear and agree with all you've got to say (I've been following you for six years this year and check your blogs like the newspaper), but one does wonder if like-- if "this", that is, video game EUification SW, is what SW is in its perception, its cultural status, can one make appeals to Lucas' Original Trilogy (and to some degree, Prequel Trilogy) ethos? At a certain point, once a work becomes canonical, it becomes more than itself, and I guess I just wonder if I'm beating my head against a brick wall with this, lol.

But on the other hand, it's that very ethos that gave it that cultural canonicity. Being able to identify it is the only way you can make SW a property which regenerates, otherwise you end up with the slag that is CGI Luke. Maybe I've answered my own question, but I'd love to hear what you think.

I really think that if SW were solely what the video gameifying fans wanted to make of it, it would not have the indelible cultural impact that is has. The reason it is so huge and enduring is because of its bold and deathless narrative. It's very basic, but it's mythic storytelling with emotional verisimilitude and that's something that taps into the human psyche in a very profound way. The challenge it presents with its unconditional idealism, the defiant hope it proffers in the face of popular cynicism, these are the things that make it so distinctive and memorable. Pop culture is not offering stories like this for a general audience any more.

The reason why the EU type stuff can keep proliferating and expanding in esoteric directions is because they have that solid archetypal foundation to build on. If the foundation weren't there, these would be niche nerd things for a niche nerd audience. And as the foundation has been damaged the tributary constructions have stagnated and withered. Lucas's fairytale gives people a universalist platform, a shared reference point, but inevitably a lot of that huge audience is going to latch on to incidental aspects or want to subvert the story. People who create transformative works are a tiny minority of the audience and it's important to remember that most people experience stories in a passive way without critically analysing or wanting to engage creatively. The EU type fans may be the majority of the fandom (not sure they are, but I don't know if there's really a way of judging that), but that doesn't in any way mean the majority of the audience doesn't read the story more or less in the way it was intended.

But like, any fandom is going to wear down the edges of the thing. They're going to apply the lens of their own preferred worldview to it and reshape it in their own image. They're going to simplify the characters and make the themes less challenging because that makes it easier to have the fun they want to have with their fanworks. It's not a conscious process, but a big group processing something is going to make that thing more generic in aggregate.

I don't think we should take what's popular in transformative fandom (and the old EU was simply a curated transformative fandom) as a comment on what a work means to its cumulative audience or what its cultural legacy is. Probably it's not really controversial to say that the most iconic single element of SW is the revelation of Vader's identity as Luke's father, and thus grappling with the implications of that will always be at the forefront of our collective perception of the story. No matter how much lorebros and Force kata people muddy the waters, the inescapable moral challenge at the heart of the saga remains THE thing everyone knows about it.

I appreciate your blog and insights so much and i agree with a ton of stuff you have said about taylor / kaylor so this comes from a kind place, not a hateful one. I dont want to defend taylor at all. However i want to offer a different perspective on some of her lyrics solely for arts sake.

I see a lot of people saying we should not have been surprised that taylor isnt the good person we have thought she was and that she has shown us her narcissistic / abusive / victim - playing personality (etc) through her lyrics. Songs like afterglow, renegade, youre losing me (etc) come go mind.

After all i still believe writing music is a way for her to cope and if that is so, i see it as a good sign that she writes about the dark sides of her personality because it shows she can still reflect on the situations and her role in them. I would find it worse if all her songs were basically white horse or shouldve said no where she doesnt take any blame for anything.

We need to remember we werent there in any of the situations she describes and so we dont know if she actually „went off like sirens“ at her lover or actually said and meant things like „you sacrificed us to the gods of your bluest days“.

The way i see it, those lyrics can absolutely tell what has really happened. But they can also be fragments of what was in her mind when the situation happened and was left unspoken. Or offer an alternative reaction to a situation that truly happened. Maybe she wanted to blow things out of proportion and make her lover miserable, maybe she even did. However we dont know any context and we dont know how or if she made up for it and therefore we cant judge her because im sure all of us have destructive tendencies and as i said before, people who dont recognize them are far more dangerous than those who do.

I guess my point is that people seem to forget that just because a song is based on real experiences and feelings does not make the song 100% accurate and also the other way around. Just because a song has been inspired by fiction doesnt mean the feelings cant have occured in real life situations.

Its scary how illiterate the world is becoming. We are less and less capable of interpreting art and its dangerous for so many reasons.

As an artist I think art is up to individual interpretation by whomever is viewing it—like the Observer Effect for particles

I disagree that people are unable to interpret art correctly because any true artist knows that what we create isn’t fully coming from just ourselves. You tap into something else to create anything, but especially something that has a profound impact on you while you are making it. Whoever is experiencing your art is bringing their own entire mental worlds to the table which colors their interpretation as well

So while I agree with you that nothing Taylor reveals in her lyrics should be taken as gospel truth, or complete fantasy, I don’t think there is one true correct interpretation of any of it. Go to any Taylor sub and see how the Matty or Diana stans can read a lyric that Kaylors have claimed and make it line up with their cannon just as easily

♡ Tips To Make Social Media Fun Again ♡

✮⋆˙ A follow up of this post ✮⋆˙

♡ Unfollow & Remove

I get it, it's easy to feel guilty about unfollowing and removing someone from your account when they haven't done anything necessarily wrong. If you are consistently skipping someone's posts or even go so far as to mute their entire account it's time to let them go. Do it! They most likely won't notice or care and you will feel free, I promise. I went from almost 900 followers on Instagram to 63 and I have never felt better.

♡ Go Private

Make your account private to avoid wandering eyes. Think of how many times you have stalked someone's account because of enticing drama you heard from a friend. Now think of how many people have done that to you. It feels weird, right? Controlling who has access to you makes posting on social media much less suffocating. Evil eye is real. Beware!

♡ Curate Who You Follow

Don't follow the people that make you feel the why not me's and start following creatives. Following influencers who have the things you want sounds alluring until you're having a bad day. What you surround yourself with is what creates your perception so find accounts that make you feel inspired, motivated, happy.

Some examples of the type of content that may resonate with you:

♡ Art

♡ Writing / Poetry

♡ Self Help

♡ Fitness

♡ Post Your Niche

It sounds daunting because having a niche seems like a thing only really put together people have. It's not! A niche is whatever makes you happy, whatever makes you want to keep posting. Is your niche something that is popular with the majority? Probably not, and that's okay. This blog's aesthetic is 2000's emo/scene/mcbling/y2k. These aesthetics absolutely don't connect with the majority like the Lana clean girl aesthetic that's popular right now, but it's what makes M and I happy. Having a unique niche makes it so much more rewarding when like-minded accounts like your content. Don't post what garners the most engagement, post what you like.

♡ Do Not Disturb ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁

After you post put your phone on DND and throw it as far away from you as possible. It sounds like a joke but I'm being serious <( °^° )> Sitting on your phone waiting for likes and comments is anxiety inducing for everyone so it's best to go find something else to do while you wait. While I wait I read, watch a show, play a game, clean. Do what your heart desires in the moment to get your mind off of it.

♡ Interact

Like, comment, share! I'm not sure when it became uncool to interact with people you don't know. I fell into that trap and didn't realize until I started these tips myself. Who cares if people you know see you interacting with others? They are not responsible for what makes you feel passion and excitement. Interacting with others is the sole reason for social media to exist so reap the benefits and create a community you enjoy.

♡ Fulfill Yourself Outside Of the Internet

This is easier said than done and I can admit it is the hardest to do. However, that is not to deter you from doing it! If your life is consumed by social media it becomes mundane. You have seen it all and now you're just waiting around for the next viral thing to happen. Find something you like doing outside of being online and coming back to your socials becomes so much more fun. Remember, it's a hobby not a lifestyle.

⊱ ─── ⋅ʚ♡ɞ⋅ ─── ⊰

I have felt suffocated and pressured on social media for years and thought there was no way out of it. These things helped me rediscover how fun social media can be and I hope they do the same for you! ♡⸜(˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝

Good luck!

Welcome!

Alright, so...I have decided to migrate my TikTok posts and links here for organization purposes. I used to share my bot links on my TikTok comments section and I think it would be efficient if I have a main platform for everything: photos, texts, and links. TikTok is not "link-friendly" so I had to use Tumblr instead.

To be honest, I had been awfully inconsistent with my platforms (I use google docs and Canva site too) and I realized that it would be challenging if I manage a lot of sites at the same time. That's basically the reason why I made this Tumblr blog lol (+ I think I can reach more bot creators and users here as well).

With that said, if you're new to my account or if you haven't heard about me yet, let me briefly introduce myself.

About Me:

╰► Hi! I'm Nara. I'm a bot creator and fic writer. I usually write romance, fantasy, fluff, and smut/nsfw (which means my account is not minor-friendly!). Most of my male bots are original characters written in 2nd POV (and sometimes 3rd POV). I also write Love and Deepspace bots <3

You can visit my Carrd to know more about me or my TikTok account where I usually share my bots.

These bots are based on my imagination so please do not copy!

If there happens to be any resemblance to existing works (which I hope isn’t the case), it is purely coincidental. I do not aim to replicate or plagiarize others' creations.

Bot profile pictures are either generated through an AI app or carefully selected from Pinterest (credit goes to the rightful owners; I do not claim these images as my own. They are used solely for aesthetic and entertainment purposes).

AI chatbots have their limitations. While they can mimic human conversation, mistakes can still occur. You may encounter out-of-character (OOC) responses even though they are "programmed" to follow specific guidelines. Remember: Everything characters say is made up. Please don't take the story too seriously.

Where to Find My Bots:

Linktree - basically a collection of all of my links

Character AI - my main bot-creating platform

Spicychat AI - secondary bot-creating platform where most of my NSFW bots are

Chai (@/Nara) - some of my bots are here but I stopped making them since I decided to focus on Character AI and Spicychat AI instead

[pffbts]

Well, it's one of those midnight where I stay awake, blinding my eyes with some contents of the phone that content me, comfort me. And I happened to stumble across your works, no scratch that, they aren't mere works anymore. Im not here to disturb you or distract you. I'm well aware of the goodbye that you bid to us. But...I don't know, I feel so connected with your words? Connected with the way you wrote? I know I'm blabbering, but I don't know, something in me said that I should definitely write this for you. I'm just thankful for whatever you left here for us, im thankful that I found you, your blog. Something about your whole blog is delicate, comforting, welcoming. And I happened to need that to fill my heart with some sort of reassurance even though I have this accompanied bittersweet feeling. I'm just truly, truly, grateful for the miracles you wrote. I was honestly crying, it made me feel better. I don't know how to evince this huge reverence I suddenly got over you.

But I'm just, thankful. So,so, thankful.

(this is a long reply, i'm extremely sorry)

“I don’t know how to evince this huge reverence I suddenly got over you.”

at 8 in the morning when you wake up, after the glaring indian sun hits your face and you read such words woven together into such a string of emotions, to be fair, what did i even expect to feel other than bittersweet happiness and a bit flabbergasted?

i wish there were words more meaningful than the boring ‘thank you(s)' because truly, you’ve left me speechless. all i can say is that my imperfect heart receives your praises and thoughts with all the warmth in the world and i hope even the lil bit of that warmth traverses through all the time zones that divide us against our wishes and gives you strength to carry on with your life, @tannedami.

regardless of my absence, i still want my blog to be one of the many corners for a breath of relief for all of you. this was once my escape, i'm grateful that the place i escaped to, a home i built amidst all my griefs became a shade under which you all take a breather from the glaring sun that represents each and every one of your lives.

it was the sole reason i left my blog untouched. i deleted not a single one of my letters or fics. i kept them all, even the unfinished and imperfect ones. my only hope was that in my farewell in every sense, a piece of me will always stay on the internet to give you all solace. in a world that flows parallel to yours, mine and all of the others, i hope my words move close to your home just to feel the air that surrounds you. in that world, my words carry all your griefs and your shortcomings like wearing rings that have all of your's names engraved on the insides.

[ID: “Even without knowing each other’s stories, we create moments of love that bridge the gap.”]

thank you for making me remembered as someone whom you pass by once in a while when you’re walking back home and that will always be enough.

this ask of yours reminded me a lot of some of those memorable asks from the past in this blog. an anon once wanted to write down the 2-part dad!hobi fic i wrote once as requested by them (tbh i found it a bit silly but at the same time quite endearing), another once sent me a dm about how they have screenshotted a letter they requested once during my talk to bangtan requests and now or then they would go back and read it for comfort. i also remember someone a year or two ago said how i almost saved their life during a low moment of their life and i still cannot for the life of me comprehend all these affections that i once and still now get from readers like you who take strolls through my little humble blog. you all should know that as much as you guys tell me how much i comfort you, these words from you all give me the strength to push the stubborn boulders that stand in my wretched life's road and keep walking on. life will keep happening and i will fight on as much as i can. i might always still wish i didn’t stay to see the new morning of the next day, but i want to keep myself going till there’s nothing left of me.

and, you and everyone must do the same. you have to. after all, there must be a reason why we were born into this damned world, right? even in passing, we must live a little in the minds of humans around us (and if you are lucky enough to have a pet, your existence is a miracle to them. trust me.)

i don’t know much about the reverence you talk about, Ami, perhaps it’s simply your emotions that has been catalyzed by my works. but really, i don’t feel myself to be deserving of any of it (this is my self-conscious, self-loathing persona talking, don’t mind her). i wish you a healthy life above anything. happiness will come and go but life will keep going on in various different shapes. we simply have to fit in. so be well because you will need a lot of strength for that, Ami.

sending all my love.

This is the first post

Topics to be covered on this blog:  

1.Reviews of my past videos posted on YouTube  

2.Interesting topics related to Final Fantasy series and Kingdom Hearts series  

3.Introductions to music videos that I find exceptional

For this post, I would like to focus on my activities in creating music videos for Final Fantasy X.

Activities on Youtube

First of all, I tell you what kind of activities I do on Youtube. I've been posting music videos using FFX sources on Youtube since 2008. I create music videos in a style that includes lines that go with the music, and visual effects that match the melody. It's difficult to pinpoint the genre of my videos, but I think it's a remix that combines AMV/GMV and YTPMV/otomad. I only post 2-3 times a year, which is not very often. Also, although I have been active for over 15 years, I don't have many video views and subscribers. Still, I have no regrets about my activities. I feel happy that I have continued this far.

The reason that I chose FFX

Actually, before I started my activities on YouTube, I used to make GMVs (Game Music Videos) for the Kingdom Hearts series and posted them on AMV/GMV forums. And I had the idea to try posting them on YouTube as well. However, due to the strict copyright issues surrounding the Kingdom Hearts series and the high risk of deletion, I had to give up on that. Nevertheless, my desire to do something on YouTube persisted. so I decided to try making music videos outside of the KH series. That's when I turned to FFX. There were two main reasons for this choice. First, FFX was a game that held a special place in my heart, so much so that I had always wanted to make music videos for it someday. I remember encountering this game during a difficult time in my teenage years, and its wonderful story touched my heart, making me feel like it saved my life. The second reason was that I already had visual and voice clip data from FFX, so there was no need for material gathering.

About song choice

I have used songs from the Touhou series, FF series, Nintendo games, KH series, etc.In the early days of my activities (2008-2010), I used to decide which songs to use based on intuition. I didn't consider whether the songs matched the atmosphere of FFX. If I felt like using a particular song, I immediately used to start production. However, from 2011 onwards,  I gradually began selecting songs that better matched the serious and somewhat dark atmosphere of FFX. As I mentioned earlier, since I originally made GMVs,  I always emphasized the compatibility between visuals and music. Therefore, I believe the atmosphere of my videos tends to be more serious and somewhat heavy.

Things I prioritize in video creation

Before starting the video production, I first think about a clear concept that I want to express in the video.  In the past, I used to focus solely on creating rhythmic videos  by overlaying dialogue on the music without considering a concept. While I think that approach had its good points, I came to realize that to capture the charm of FFX's story and characters, it's better to imbue the video with some kind of concept. Therefore, I thoroughly consider what the theme of my video should be based on the story of FFX. Additionally, it's important for me to make videos when I want to without forcing myself. It might sound obvious, but I believe that being able to do this has allowed me to continue for over 15 years.

Answers to questions from comments on my previous videos

I. Favorite Character in FFX

Jecht. Although there are various opinions on how he interacts with Tidus, I think he is a character with strong resolve.

II.Favorite Scene in FFX

The scene in the Thunder Plains where Rikku screams and makes strange movements. It’s a comical scene, but during my first playing,  I thought Rikku might have been possessed and would turn against the party.

III.Favorite BGM in FFX

1.Otherworld

2.A Fleeting Dream

3.Challenge

IV.What software do you use?

Audio:Reaper

Visual:After Effects

However, I used to use Vegas for creating visuals in the past.

V.How long does it take to make a video?

It depends on the length of the video, but if I devote myself fully to it, I think I can finish in 2 to 4 weeks. However, since I can't always dedicate that much time,  my posting frequency naturally decreases.

VI.Do you have any videos you refer to when making your videos?

There's nothing specific, but I often check movie trailers and the opening sequences of anime and games.

VII.Will you collaborate with other creators?

I can't because I don't have the time...

VIII. Will you make music videos for anything other than FFX?

As long as I'm active as Aruz11 on YouTube, I won't.

That's all for now. Thank you for visiting. See you next time.
