#but 🥺❤�� invented love

[tervaneula]

I feel ashamed i took a while to reply about the new chapter, maybe because my period started - and funny enough your 2nd chapter come out the same day so it was a huge comfort - and i felt unwell at the time.

BUT AM BACK BITCHES!!! ( ͡≖ ل͜ ͡≖)

I like the beginning where you gave us a world building about the hamatos and how or why they're in the village as well explaining about Splinter and draxum.. It's as i like it: short and to the point!❤

When the house passed down to the 3rd oldest child - A.K.A Leonardo my brain went to "Wait, did Donnie faked some document papers? DAMN IT DEE 🤣" but tbh, i would love to see what the "weird one" can invent in this time and age 🤩

The fact you added draxum is so good because am interest in knowing his bond with the turtles in the is AU as: was he part of their childhood? Or did they made the same run like in the show? Where drax was bad, then the turtles defeated him and so like that?

Or was he and splinter on good terms from the beginning? And that makes me wonder if big mama was envolved or will be eventually..

This one detail i like as we all know drax is a plant type of person who can grow multiple and take care of plants, since in the era they're in their economy is counting on plants mostly as source of food, of course the baron is gonna get less to no rumors because they all want to have enough food!!

I swear, this people are like "i don't like gossip" AS THEY STAND NWAR THE NEWS, these people wants tea man!!/lh

So they're gonna start talking when they saw the turtles and oh my god i hope they don't hurt my baby raph's feelings 🥺🥺🥺 i can imagine my baby walking among the crowd and you can spot him so easy because baby is so tall!!

2nd is Donnie, i swear if i could get a nickel for every time people misunderstanding purple as "he would use you as an experiment" i would be RICH.

Then we come to the hero of the story, leo!!!! Again, remembering that one art of him carrying oranges and then that art of 4 of the turtles? AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH SCREAMING AGAIN!!! 🥺😭🥺😭🥺😭🥺

If it weren't for his injuries, scars and missing arm! My baby boy would walk around freely!!! Damn you kraangs!!

And finally, the sunshine Mikey 🧡🧡 begin able to... Make friends is good? Kinda? I mean am still doubtful because these town folks are suspicious, them begin cruel is making me wonder what DR. D.T would do to them.. 👀

Now we're back to the aftermath of what happened at the... Mall lolol

Seeing raph coming first from the kitchen is making me happy because BABY!! He's my baby ❤❤❤❤/p/aff

Seeing the twin argues is like the most sibling energy i love to get from them as leo carries heavy usagi like a sack of potato, baby blue boy is weak lmaooo/jk

Imagining how raph is carrying usagi with ease - and surprisingly not afraid of rabbits - it so wholesome!! And secretly wondering if leo would feel.. Jealous 👀 *rubs hands evily*/silly

When i heard Donnie went to Mikey's room with oranges i laughed imagining him puttin' the oranges in a plate and pushing it towards Mikey so he won't get the sickness from him because Eew! Lolol

And now am interest in why Mikey is interest in the ronin 👀✨

Oh my gosh you already commented on AO3 I was not expecting you to leave another!!!!! 😍😍 And also I'm super late at replying and I'm so sorry! I'm so glad the chapter was a comfort though <:3c

HEHEHE I LOVE THAT YOU'RE WONDERING ABOUT SO MANY THINGS RE: DRAXUM!! I'm hoping to talk about him more in a future chapter >:) (spoilers maybe but I have not thought about Big Mama so she probably won't show up XD)

Thank you for your thoughts about the boys and the backstory!! Dr. Delicate Touch hasn't made an appearance in the village yet (imagine Raph dragging Mikey home every time it threatens to happen ajhsgdhd) but Dr. Feelings might at some point 😂

Istg tho the twins keep arguing in my fics without my active input so the sibling energy truly goes brrrrrr. I love them SO MUCH HAHA

I love the jealousy thought but Leonardo's just happy that his big brother has his back (✿◡‿◡) and yes Raph is baby<33333

Mikey is a goofy little guy, he just thinks the ronin is kinda cool :D They've lived pretty uneventful lives for a long time (there's some big stuff in their past but it's been quite a while since then) so rumours like that are INTERESTING.

HEHEEHE THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS COMMENT AND GUESS WHAT I'M GONNA POST THE THIRD CHAPTER TONIGHT (IF I DON'T PASS OUT BEFORE I GET TO IT AHJSGD)

[beevean]

I think your writing and analysing is always top tier, you seem like a genuine cool person to hang out with, and I wish I could actually interact with you irl, because we could just hang out without pressuring each other to actually talk 😊

Bro 🥺 thank you!

hell yeah love hanging out with people who don't make me feel pressured to talk, whether it's because they do all the talking or they just want to chill ❤ one day they'll invent teleporters and it will be all over for you, just you wait :3

rewatching community: highlights

from S3E16

- Troy checking in on Abed while he's on a fucking date with Britta is possibly gayer than a fully explicit anal sex scene

- Real Actual Dialog™:

Jeff: I left my wife for you when she was pregnant!

Annie: who do you think inseminated her?

- the totally straight™ character Troy Barnes: I can see why women find Clive Owen attractive to the point where I might just as well be attracted to him

- also Troy: I'm more turned on by women in pajamas than lingerie, I just wanna know they feel comfortable 😭 ❤

- Fake shirley in Abed's simulation: Abed's been filtered out because nobody NEEDS HIM :(((

- also pointing out that even in the simulation Troy is the only one who knew of Abed bc even Abed knows that Troy DOES need him

- abed according to annie according to abed: control freak with no empathy 🥺🥺

- Abed: we're inside a locker, it's where i spent a lot of time in junior high 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

- also Abed: I've run the simulations; I don't get married, I don't invent a billion-dollar website that helps people have sex, I don't make it into Sundance

perfect summary of how i felt about my life when I realized I was queer tbh

- Annie: Your simulations are nothing more than anxieties; you're afraid you don't fit in, you're afraid you'll be alone. Great news, you share that with all of us, so you'll never be alone and you'll always fit in. (...) I was trying to make life go according to some script, I can't, you can't. We need to get more comfortable winging it.

man sometimes this show gets really heartfelt in a way that i love

- LMAOOO when it cuts to a voice over of abed saying "I don't know a lot of things everyone knows" and there's a clock, shoelaces and taxes papers on screen 😭😭

https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/30/entertainment/tony-bennett-jason-aldean-blake-cec/index.html I thought of you when I saw this!

🥺❤ thank you, i appreciate this! that guy the piece is critiquing does not deserve the energy or space, but i love what this says about the importance of timing, collaboration, and inclusion in jazz and in music, and the effect that has.

"Many of the tributes to Bennett mentioned his disdain for bigotry. He was demoted for bringing a Black soldier home for Thanksgiving dinner during World War II; spoke of how he “saw no things a human being should ever have to see” while helping liberate a Nazi death camp; joined marches during the civil rights movement; and did extensive philanthropic work.

What some of those tributes missed, though, is that Bennett’s activism didn’t occur in a vacuum. He had great role models. Many White jazz artists were antiracists, long before the word was invented.

Frank Sinatra, Bennett’s musical mentor, recorded with and relentlessly championed Black jazz artists like Ella Fitzgerald and Count Basie. When Sinatra once noticed singer Nat King Cole eating dinner in a hotel dressing room, he invited him to the main dining room, where Black people were not allowed. Sinatra then warned the hotel’s management that he would get the entire serving staff fired if they didn’t integrate the dining hall.

Jazz pianist Dave Brubeck led the first integrated band in the US Army during World War II. He hired a Black jazz bassist, Eugene Wright, and refused to play in segregated venues.

The big band leader, Benny Goodman, brought a half-dozen Black musicians with him onstage at Carnegie Hall in 1938 when it, and virtually all performance venues, were segregated.

Bennett’s activism was an outgrowth of his music, not a complement to it. His relationships with Black people may not seem like a big deal now, but he and others risked their careers to stand up for Black artists during the Jim Crow era. At a time when most White Americans saw Black people as servants, Bennett called musicians like Ellington and Louis Armstrong geniuses who created what some call “America’s only true art form.”

“Jazz is an African American art form. People don’t realize how creative and intelligent it is,” Bennett said in one interview. “It’s elongated improvisation, which never happened before in the history of art. It’s a great art form that’s loved throughout the world.”

Bennett belongs to a generation of jazz artists who created one of the nation’s first multiracial communities. There are countless photos of a beaming Bennett hanging out with Black jazz artists. Ellington, who Bennett called “my muse,” was virtually a member of Bennett’s family.

When Lionel Hampton, a Black member of Goodman’s band, was asked why Goodman risked his career to bring White and Black artists together, he responded:

“He said we need the White keys and the Black keys to play together to make good harmony. And that’s what he did.”

[...] That collaborative spirit, of course, is not confined to jazz. It exists in all music genres – including country.

[...] But the peculiar demands of playing jazz music — musicians improvising and responding to one another’s solos in a group setting — is one reason some say that no musical genre captures the democratic spirit in America as perfectly as jazz.

“Jazz means working things out musically with other people,” the jazz trumpeter Wynton Marsalis once said. “You have to listen to other musicians and play with them even if you don’t agree with what they’re playing. It teaches you the very opposite of racism and anti-Semitism. It teaches you that the world is big enough to accommodate us all.”

[...] Bennett assured listeners that “the best is yet to come.” He refused to pander to audiences, insisting that the sole purpose of art was “truth and beauty.” He reached across racial lines, cultures and generations to find common ground.

There was nothing small about the man or his music...Bennett sang for the ages."

[phinphang000]

Heres my Tim headcanons that I only use in personal roleplays but. Meh

1. He was heavily neglected by his parents. It's a common hc but I flesh it out a bit with the why. Hes an unplanned pregnancy. Kinda a scandle. On top of that, Janet Drake wanted a girl so bad that she straight up guilted Tim into becoming the daughter she never had. Tim would say he agreed to all of it to make her happy and love him. And she loved him in her own fucked up way before she died. It fucked him up. His dad on the other hand got worse after Janet died. Hes more verbally abusive. He thinks Tim is disgusting. Tim struggles to realize he doesn't need his fathers approval and he can love his mom and miss her, but acknowledge what she did to him was horrible.

2. Siblings traumatize each other. I swear each batchild has bad memories with alllll their siblings. But they love each other. What I usually do in Rps is have Damian, yes, be mean to Tim, but he's mean to everyone, but gradually the more he learns about Tim the more he respects him. And he apologizes at some point. I wouldn't say it traumatizes Tim but it does hurt his self confidence and he works through that

3. No idea what this is about but it sounds fun lol. Not my cup of tea tho. Dick is a good man. He loves Tim. In my perfect world at least. To each their own.

4. Hard agree. He's scary ❤ love him for that

5. He is so a camera baby boy but like... In a creepy way. He's a creep. He's a stalker. He's like if a cryptid monster made a hobby of watching other cryptid monsters. Look just imagine Tim in a Red Room. What a scene man. Think of the music playing over this as he develops pictures, eyes dark and analytic. Hehehehe

6. To be fair... The Titans tower incident. But also to be fair. The writers of Jason Todd hate Jason Todd. Look I think we all agree we want Jason's story to be handled a bit differently especially during his back from the dead arc? The Pit Madness is one of fanons greatest inventions and theres so much to explore through that. Making Jason so angry he hurts people he should want to protect! UHG THE EMOTION THE CONFLICT THERES SO MUCH POTENTIAL! Heres my personal favorite. Red Hood beats the shit out of Tim while pit mad but when he comes out of the green he freaks out... But Tim up in seeing its Jason, completely disregards his injuries and is just like omg hi 🥺

7. Brothers take care of each otherrrrrr Jason is entitles to shake some sence into little bird! Big. Brothers. Are. Little. Brothers. Caretakers. Mentors. Allies. Unless you mean primary caretaker? Unsure. To each their own on that one. I like having them be a chaos duo

8. He is a bi TWUNK! He has abs. He can do chin ups. He is a queer dood. I haven't seen much twinkifying or bi erasure. Pretty sure most the time it's just people using gay as a catch all term. Is that bad? Idk. Twunks rise up

9. But it's classic 😭 give me raccoon eyed Tim at 5am punching black coffees cause he has to finish the case report TONIGHT. He comes off as the kinda guy who can hack NASA but forgets to bath 7 days in a row

10. Seen a few of these fics. I'm sure if it can be written well I'd be fine but not my cup of tea. I like the bat family caring about Tim but not knowing how bad his bad habits get till he has a breakdown or something and they go into bat family overdrive priority restore tims sanity

Sorry for any typos 😔

Can someone please tell Tim stand that most of their shitty head cannons of uwu Timmy will never be cannon and that they should stop forcing trauma on a perfectly decent charecter cus deadass the twinkifacation of Tim is what made me hate him.

No he was not abused by his parents

No he is not traumatised by damian

No dick did not put him in Arkham

No he is so the strongest batfamily member

No he is not a camera baby boy

No Jason is not his abuser

No Jason is not his caretaker

No he is not a gay twink

No he is not a coffee addict with no safety concerns.

And no the batfam did not neglect him and make him suicidal

Sketching my two favorite heroes with no super-strength or super-healing: who keeps fighting and trying to make a difference despite the amassing and ever-present injuries❤️‍🩹

Both have a truckload of issues: massive guilt complex, abandonment issues, anger issues (matt), self-destructive and flawed.. but also they're really out there getting pummeled to a pulp (willing to sacrifice their own safety and well-being in a heartbeat to save someone else's), trying to help, and stopping horrific acts done by people without Any scruples👏🥺❤️‍🩹😭

I just want to imagine them meeting and interacting! So many similarities, and as with all his teammates, Tony would definitely want to help out Matt in all the areas he can, inventing all kinds of gadgets with improved accessibility and operated without the need for sight (Tony has a lot of haptic feedback based controls for his armor himself), and Matt, once he no longer misunderstands Tony's need to help and protect and be useful to everyone he cares about, as anything that would wound his fiercely independent pride, ends up finding a whole variety of them quite interesting and useful, same as the rest of the Avengers family experiences.

Also called Team "Ha ha, I’m fine" (idiots)

Hello! How are you? I've been wondering what would Aleksander's reaction be if it turned out that his child's first word (e.g. Kira) was 'dada/ papa'? I mean I bet he would be shocked but it would also be sweet 🥺❤

I'm sorry it's short, I had promised myself I wouldn't write any more requests until I finished the next chapter of the story, but this request was just too cute not to take!

aleksander morozova family au , aleksander morozova x wife!oc

summary: Kira's first word.

warnings: just tons of fluff.

*****

“Please, Kira, just eat this.” Aleksander begged the baby. Oh, if his army could see him at that moment. The mighty Black General, defeated by a one year old. (Truth to be told, he knew he had already been defeated the second she was born.)

Irina had had an exhausting day with the girl, full of crying and tantrums, and so Aleksander was only too happy to offer to take the nighttime routine, and let her relax. He set up a warm bath for his wife, and took the baby girl to her nursery.

He was trying to get the baby to eat, but couldn’t succeed in doing so. Every spoonful of food he had tried to give her, had either ended up splattered all over his blouse, or on the floor. But a lifetime of lessons had taught him that the best way to deal with bossy, grumpy little beasts such as his (very much adored) daughter was through perseverance, and so he yet again grabbed a spoonful of mashed potatoes and tried to get his daughter to eat it, but once more Kira made the food fly through the air.

“Are you not hungry? Is that it?” He asked, confused. How could such a tiny thing have so much energy without having had a single meal, he didn’t understand. He backed his hand and the spoon away, which only made the baby fuss harder. He scooped from the bowl again, and tried to feed the baby, but Kira insisted on smashing the spoon against the table.

“Saints, sweet pea,” he groaned, and immediately rolled his eyes at himself; damn Irina and her cute pet names that were unwillingly sticking to him, “you’ve thrown more food that you’ve eaten, ho–”

“Dada.” The small girl suddenly babbled.

Aleksander froze on his seat, spoon full in hand, not being able to quite grasp what had just happened. Kira had been mumbling nonsense for some months, but she had never quite managed to say a full, proper word before.

“W– what?” He muttered, dizzily. “Did you just call me ‘Dada’?”

“Dada!” The baby girl repeated after him, with a giggle.

Aleksander felt his heart flutter and his chest get swollen with pride, feeling a sudden burst of love inside of him. He took the girl in his arms and made her fly in the air, and then he pulled her back and left a kiss on her cheeks. Overloaded with happiness as he was, Aleksander was about to go running towards Irina, she just had to be in that moment– their daughter’s very first word that is, but he stopped on his tracks.

His wife was the one who spent most of her time with Kira; as much as he wanted to be just as involved, being the leader of the Second Army didn’t really allow him to be on call throughout the whole day. Irina had been the one to deal with most of the girl’s tantrums and fussy moods, not to mention all the nighttime breastfeeding. She was the one who spent the whole day inventing games to play with the girl outside, and the one who woke up in the middle of night and came up with the sweetest stories he had ever heard, just to get Kira to sleep. It only felt right that their daughter's very first word should be in honour of her.

Aleksander knew Irina would be just as delighted whether Kira’s first words were ‘mama’, or ‘dada’ or whatever else, but she had had a long day, and he wanted to make sure it ended with a nice surprise for her. So he sat down on the bed with Kira in his arms, and started practising.

“Remember how you said ‘Dada’ seconds ago?”

“Dada!” The girl giggled, while clapping.

Aleksander couldn’t help but chuckle with her (Saints knew he could listen to her laughing for hours and hours), but then he remembered the important task he had on his hands.

“You did a very good job with ‘dada’, malyshka.” He cooed. “But can you say ‘mama’ for me now?”

“Dada!”

“‘Mama.’” He corrected her.

“Dada!” Clearly his methods weren’t working, so he started to try something else.

“Ma–”

“Ma.” Kira repeated.

“–ma.”

“Ma.”

“Mama!” He smiled.

“Dada!”

Aleksander sighed, and wished Irina was feeling in the mood for a very long bath indeed.

• • •

Irina walked off the bathroom just in time for her husband and daughter’s little surprise. As she was putting on her nightgown, she heard Aleksander enter the room, with little Kira in his arms.

“Hello sunshine.” She smiled brightly.

“Look at this.” Her husband said, holding back a grin.

“What?”

“My little malyshka, who is that?” He asked mischievously, pointing towards Irina.

“Mama!” The girl giggled.

Irina immediately brought her hands to cover her mouth, opening her eyes in shock.

“D– did she just–”

“Mama!” Kira repeated.

Irina pressed her hands on her chest, and started tearing up, in the middle of laughter. She leaned towards her daughter, and gave her a big kiss, inevitably squeezing her cheeks.

“Oh, I can’t believe ‘Mama’ really is her first word.” She sobbed.

“Mama!” Kira squealed.

“Are you happy, milaya?” He asked, grabbing her by the waist and pulling her closer to him.

Irina eagerly nodded, and gave him a peck on the lips. She then threw her attention back at Kira, trying to get her to talk once more.

Aleksander let out a chuckle, and winked an eye at the baby.

It would be their little secret.

[quokki]

if your bias loving hours are still open, i would love to talk at length about lee felix and the perfectly sane and normal amount of love i have for him. i love him a regular amount. yes i just spent about £20 on a single photocard of him, but that's fine. i'm fine 😃

so i fully started stanning skz a little bit after noeasy came out, but ages before that i'd heard god's menu and back door and before knowing anything about them (names, faces, how many of these guys there even were) felix's parts were my favourite parts of both those songs. deep voice made my brain go brrrrr and then i saw the pretty pretty pretty face that voice was attached to and i've never been the same since. obviously i'm used to his voice now, but sometimes i'll like see that "wakey wakey" clip or i'll rewatch his tiktok of him doing his (perfect amazing immaculate) verse from muddy water and i'll just be like..... wow he really just sounds like that in real life huh? good for him

anyway i could probably write an essay about how talent this man is but i think it would quickly devolve into me just sort of crying and screaming and spamming heart emojis because felix is very good at breaking my brain like that, ult bias privileges ❤

but he's just SO TALENTED and i feel like it's really been hitting different this comeback because of his injury (and don't even get me started on that, i have been "like i know him personally" levels of worried about him 😥). he's been so limited by how much he can do for the maniac stages and at first it was breaking my heart to see him having to walk off to the side of the stage instead of dancing with everyone else (especially that one fancam that didn't even follow him off stage hello??? doing my boy so dirty). but he was actually able to do So Much with the little but of choreo he was able to do and it was just so impressive. like this part??

the part when he does the thing with his fingers?? i can't describe but it's SO GOOD, he's the only member who does it like that and that little detail is just so eye catching and so satisfying to watch and those little details are just So Him and i love it 😭❤

i also saw a comment on a tiktok that said felix this comeback invented walking and yes he did i mean

the presence. the intensity. doing the least but still completely owning that stage. he didn't waste a single goddamn SECOND he had in the centre even when he was just walking THAT'S MY BOY 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

anyway.... my absolute favourite dynamic in all of skz is the relationship between felix and changbin, not just because they're both my biases but because they're both just so incredibly sweet with each other. like felix admires and respects binnie so much and isn't afraid to be totally upfront about it (just like with all the members honestly, lixie has so much love to give 🥺��), and binnie is really emotionally intelligent so it just feels like they understand each other so well. their 2 kids room episode is my absolute favourite, it was just 15 minutes of them complimenting the shit out of each other with visible hearts in their eyes, intercut with the other members talking about how much they love each other. my two favourite guys 🥰❤💕

anyway this is getting incredibly long, so to close out here are some of my favourite images of my favourite guy and thank you for allowing me to ramble about him 🥰❤

felix  felix  felix  felix  felix  felix  felix  felix FELIXX FELIXX FELIX FEELLIXXXX

pls he makes me so happy it’s stupid, he has my entire heart

this is obv but YES his voice is INSANE OFF THE CHARTS WTH DUDE

felix is THE most iconic period. NO ONE DOES IT LIKE HIM PLS

i swear i would be drawing him (and hyunjin) every single day if i could

oh god yeah im so worried about his injury... and i can’t help but think that he’s probably so upset he can’t do everything like the rest and it must be a burden on him and that’s just heart breaking

but you’re so right, for the small parts where he’s in the choreo he’s got all the attention because ofc IT’S FELIX

he’s literally love shaped 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗 i love how affectionate and loving he is sooo much

i love every single pic you sent!!!! great choices!!!

now here’s my special selection for you 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

send me a love letter about your bias 💌💌💌

[stardustbee]

What are the Arinori sibling dynamics like?

Thank you for your ask and the interest on the siblings ❤

Inbox random-ass questions about my stories! 😬

So of course they love each other dearly but the way they act and stuff is differently.

Let us begin with the oldest, Cadoc: He always seems like he doesn't care much about anything. He seems very cold hearted and annoyed by anything. But he cares deeply about them although he never shows it. He decided to train Ayane secretly in fighting with two daggers when they where younger.

Luciana, she is the smart ass in the family and doesn't bother to show that. Which leads to some annoying siblings. Since she is a medic, she cares much about the health of all of them. Ayane and her always has their little fights but in the end of the day they always come together again! Cadoc and her are the oldest so both of them are very protective.

Ayane and Einar, the twins are pretty similar and have a deeper concetion compared to the others. Both are pretty shy and sometimes people around them they didn't underestimate what they are talking since they invented some kind of secret language! (No, Ayane doesn't remember it) Ayane sometimes dressed as Einar so he got get some free time since Gwydion named him as the heir of the Arinori family after Cadoc left the estate.

You can say that they all stick together as good as they can although their ways may be separated 🥺

part two of this ask by @just-a-glittery-fan

part one: RNM | part three: GG reboot

I wanted to add a normal gif. something cute and simple. but then I saw this and I had to.

What I love about them: what's not to like?? I love his sass, as shown above. I love his loyalty. I love his brain. I love his epic love story with Mickey. I love his relationship with his siblings. I love how protective he is of the people he loves.

What I hate about them: not a hate, but I'm not a fan of all the violence between him and Mickey. I know, that's how they roll, southside and all, but still.

Favorite Moment/Quote: there were many iconic moments, but the first one I thought about was "Is Mickey adopted?" to T*rry because KING SHIT. also early seasons, the hearteyes look he gives Mickey when M first kisses him. you know, when he's the getaway driver while the Milkoviches are robbing a house and Mickey gets shot in the ass and Ian's old ass boyfriend has to operate on him on the Gallagher's kitchen counter. god I miss this show.

What I would like to see more focus on: is this still relevant? anyway, I want more domestic fluff. also, dad!Ian. also, better communication between him and Mickey.

What I would like to see less focus on: ugh, idk... it was pretty okay, considering it was Shameless.

Favorite pairing with: gallavich for the win, obvi. I started the entire fucking show because of them and a highly misleading promo that showed the s7 goodbye completely differently, but I'm not going on that rant again 🙃

Favorite friendship: Mandy! ❤ and Lip! 💙 imagine if Lip got his shit together and he stayed with Mandy. the power the Mandy-Lip-Ian-Mickey quartet would have.

NOTP: I think the only other serious relationship he had was Trevor? Travis? something like that, and I liked him a lot, so it's not a notp. maybe a notp bc he deserved better than Ian, who was still in love with his ex. but again, it's Shameless.

Favorite headcanon: Ian and Mickey tease each other over their horrible tattoos all the time. 😌

What I love about them: everything 🥰

What I hate about them: that she's gone 🥺

Favorite Moment/Quote: SHE RAN OVER KAREN!! it truly doesn't get more iconic than that 😌 but also when she offered to be Ian's fake gf at school 🥰 and "I'm not a tool so you don't get to treat my like one" and "Men are never right. That's why women were invented, to think for you assholes." absolute queen.

What I would like to see more focus on: her happiness 💛 she deserves nothing but good things 💛

What I would like to see less focus on: her getting traumatised over and over again 🙃

Favorite pairing with: Lip! if the idiot had half a working braincell he wouldn't have let her go. we could have had TWO iconic Milkovich-Gallagher duos, but he went and fucked it up 🙃

Favorite friendship: Ian 🥰

NOTP: ugh I don't even remember the dude's name, I just remember that he hurt her. something starting with a T? idk, doesn't matter. she deserves nothing but the best, anything less is not good enough for her 💛

Favorite headcanon: she was actually there at the gallavich wedding. you can't tell me she wasn't invited and didn't move heaven and earth to be there.

well look at me, finally answering age old asks, getting my shit together 😌 maybe I'll even clean my room 😌 (unlikely, but one can dream.)

thank you, bestie! 💕 part three will arrive...at a certain point in the future that is a surprise for you, but I definitely for sure know when. absolutely. it's all planned for sure. and until then, it's been a blast, as always 😌💕

[lilacerull0]

First, I want to say how in love I am with your theme. That header gif?? 🥺🥺❣

Anyway, I don't know why am I only seeing this now, but I noticed that it's your blog anniversary? Jo this is so special!!!!!!

Of course I don't need to tell you how much you and your blog mean to me (but I'm going to anyway 👀). So this might be long.

You're one of the first people I met here (I hope you don't remember how my blog looked at the beginning). I don't know if you remember this, but you're the one who encouraged me (gave me the push) to share my first piece of writing ever. You were taking requests for ts lyrics, and I talked to you, then you convinced me to give it a try, and that's when I wrote my first fanfuc ever, based on "you drew stars around my scars but now I'm bleeding". I would've never written anything like that if it wasn't for you! (How crazy is that? And amazing!!!!!!). It may not have been great, but it definitely helped me to improve my writing! That's when I realized how much emotion I can put in a story! So I owe you a huge thank you!!!! (Also the fact that I remember every single detail? Never mind).

Not to mention, what a great friend you've been and still are. You can't possibly imagine how much you helped me. Every ask you sent, every time we talked, every post I've read, it's been wonderful, and yes, I am grateful for it! The way you actually took the time to comment on my writing, telling me what you most liked about it. The way you'd send me asks or checking on me, especially if I mentioned not feeling my best, or when I just need words of encouragement to make me feel valid, or making me believe the things that my mind would sometimes refuse to (but we don't talk about that).

You're the most talented writer I know. Every single time I read your words, I am mesmerized. How could a person, a human create something so wonderful, so captivating? You are truly an inspiration, especially for me. I love you and your amazing witchy garden. I am so happy you thought of starting a blog on here. Love you 🤍🤍🤍🤍☕🖤🪄🪄

First, WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE YOU?????????? I have no idea how to respond to this properly, you are sooooooooooooooooo, I'd need to invent new words for you, the ones I can use feel too of this world right now. I ALSO REMEMBER EVERY SINGLE DETAIL, HOW COULD I NOT????? You sent me lyrics from Innocent and our most beloved New Year's Day and I remember that fic!!!!!! Sirius 🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧 + YOU WRITING MY STORY IN YOUR NOTEBOOK 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 LOVE YOU LOVE YOU LOVE YOU❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[oloreaa]

First off, congrats on your followers!!! You deserve every crumb of recognition in this godforsaken world 😌💅

Second off, I'm so sorry that you're feeling anxious and nervous about writing ven (i swear, that person on ao3 better NEVER cross my path or else I'll show how much I'm similar to my icon)! Anxiety really is a bastard, as that other person said, but I want you to know that:

1) you're incredibly talented, all the fics I read from you are above god tier and are all in my list of fics to reread when I'm having a bad day

2) you're very inventive and creative, and your writing style is unique and so beautiful, the scenes you add that don't appear on canon are always amazing and add huge depth to the story and the characters, even if sometimes they may overlap with things other people have written - specially if they're somehow cliche, since there are so many fans writing so many fics based on only 16 episodes

3) ven is only beginning and is already a masterpiece. Once It's finished i plan to save it as a book to read time and time again, and it's been a privilege to be able to help you with the plot

4) your other fics (such as daisy chains, magma and that one of the cheesy pickup lines) are also unique and ridiculously well written, in my top ten ever fanfics, there must be at least five from you hdhshsh

5) haters are gonna hate, sadly there are too many ill intentioned people in the world and it's always them who have the audacity to be pieces of shit online to people who absolutely do not deserve it. However!! For every one person being mean, there are at least another 100 who love what you're writing (i won't take any criticism on the math okay)

6) i admire you so so much 🥺 you're so brave to put yourself and your works out there, you have no idea how much you are appreciated. I'm so proud of you.

Sorry for this long ass ask you didn't ask for hdhdhdhsh but I hope you feel better soon, and that you know that the majority of us will always be there rooting for you.

Okay Estela I am finally able to look at this without bursting into tears with every kind word you're saying and oh my gosh. I love you so much, its unreal.

I am just absolutely overwhelmed with everything you say and I really don't know how I deserve you. You're the sweetest, most caring, most supportive person out there and everytime we speak it's just?? Absolutely heart warming and you're so enthusiastic about everything? You're truly someone to look up to, I wish I can encompass your kind of energy every single day, you're the best.

I appreciate you so much and I am so glad that we are friends, you dont even KNOW LIKE BABE I JUST???? LOVE YOU???😭❤❤❤ omg I tried so hard to keep some kind of composure but BABE you're a light in the darkness and I'm so glad that our paths crossed🥺🥺🥺💕

I ADORE YOU!!!!

[baekhvuns]

Answering you early, cause I'll be gone later and miss OT8 anniversary live </3

Ateez puppy or kitten interview when, because I need this but in person

It's not easy being and Exo-l 😭 one of my besties is an OG fan and she's in the state of suffering mdudushyshdgjshs but I remember when Minho, Onew and Key were gone some antis said Shinee won't be back and they're gonna disband I- 🙃🙃🙃🙃 I'm so confused because I saw this I know, not valid info, but there's no official discharge date info I think... if he's back next month I'll eat my walls ❤

Just like Armys suddenly caring about military because their faves are going (some literally admitted to only caring about BTS - imagine telling on yourself like that wow) whereas there are 18 year old boys in the military being absolutely ruined mentally and physically. Also if someone isn't fit for the active service why send them away to be social workers, please it makes no sense 😭 Though I think for people like Donghun and Sehyoon from A.C.E it must be a nice break (they're both during social work due to their mental health issues and my boy Donghun is so active on Insta, I was dramatic at first but for no reason lmao his enjoying his life)

Uh why did that Armchair invent a scenario and got heated over it 🤨

Me too, I gave up on Choi San... Itaewon class haircut you're right 😭 speaking of pink I miss pink San too

Imagine being someone like me who likes to collect paper and buys their magazines, rip. Now the maknae got his first solo cover I'm so happy. So Ateez solo covers WHEN

I like this channel their vids are funny and relaxing. Also them because they make so many different toasts and as a toastie stan I need more ideas that are easy to veganise. And my friend from Hong Kong who always sends me new vegan products because damn HK is killing it with their vegan meat replacements, sent me this guy's cooking book. I wish my food looked so aesthetically pleasing

That dragon plot is like every cat boy story I saw ksydishshskdsbdggs except having a cat is normal, a dragon??? Not so much

I applaud you for starting so many fics and still managing to finish some of them. Take your time, but I know Yunho's Hotcheeks are thirsty 😅 and I'm so sorry why do some of you here hate happiness, please smile a little, life is painful enough don't write sad endings 😭 put angst in the story, but spare us with the final part...

I did not expect THAT photo of San I thought you were gonna send something disrespectful 🙈

Right, Jongho is actually good, but ngl I miss his early dancing days, now he needs to belt so he doesn't always go as hard or is just standing on the side, but I think many people don't see him as a good enough dancer which is a shame. Yeosang's footwork too, he's very precise something not many people notice as well!

Remember the -core quiz where I got cryptidcore... the description said I'm in love with the Mothman 👀 so "soulmates - okay socially anxious introvert, how's the extreme desire to find the love of your life without having to put in effort? (writing this as if im not the exact same)" I'm sorry but that's not me at all, let me retake it lol. I changed 3 answers and got forbidden love, slightly better hahaha

I'm wheezing

Hey uhm what the fuck is going on here and here

I love him but I hate him 🤧🥺 he wants everyone to be delulu af, maybe he's the biggest delulu after all, or the biggest tease 🙄 - DV 💖

[megamind-masterofallheroism]

Awww... don't worry, Megamind. I'm sure your instrument is vastly superior in multiple ways.

Right you are, my Fantastic Fan! Each and every one of my ⭐ GLORIOUS INVENTIONS ⭐ (the MegaFun Megalodon, the De-Plasticator Gator, Hungry Hungry Vacuums, Snack-in-the-Box, the Wheel of Cleanliness -- to name a few) are VASTLY SUPERIOR!!! Thanks for noticing ~ 😏

I'm afraid there's not much that can be done about it, anyway. I mean, raining down laser-powered wrath upon the inventor of the keytar is right out; firstly because it wouldn't set a very good example as Defender of Metro City and secondly because I'm fairly sure he's already passed on.

Oh, of course! Laser-powered wrath -- that's so 2010! Nooo, those days are faaar behind me. I truly am a changed man, a GOOD GUY™, and I have been for some time!

Which means there would have to be a seance involved, and that seems like one of those Bad Ideas Minion has warned you about before. (Do you want hauntings? Because that's how you get hauntings.)

Bad ideas?? Minion?? Warned?? Me??? About?? Whaaa???? Oohh, that Pitiful Pygo wouldn't recognize a bad idea if it were two feet in front him! (I'm not interested in hauntings at this current moment in time, no. But I will say this conversation has given me some EXCELLENT ideas! 😀👍)

As far as the terms "crappy" and "fowl" were concerned, that was a joke. Or more accurately, to quote Terry Pratchett, "that was a pune, or a play on words."

That's because guano is... Well, what you have to understand is that guano is clearly a homonym, a word with multiple different meanings. And while one of those definitions is am awesome musical device invited by a marvelous blue alien super genius, the other is...

Um...

Well, guano basically means...

Do you know what? I think I'm going to simply let you Consult the Google about that one, too.

So GUANO is not only my magnificent creation? It's alsoooo........

A BOOK ABOUT FLIGHTLESS BIRDS⁉️ ��

Finally, of course I love you! Nearly everyone--certainly everyone with excellent taste and discernment--loves the Incredibly Handsome Inventive Genius and Master of All Heroism! (Seriously, have you seen all the fan art?) I mean, you're exactly the sort of person most of us would want to hang out with. Your brilliant, funny, sincere... you've got great taste in music and you've been know to slip geek culture bits, such as a Star Wars reference, into your banter... Look, you're just fantastic, okay? Metro City got one hell Hades of an upgrade! Even your Goth look is better, far more stylish than Flying Elvis. LOL!

Oh, well... your ❤ is GREATLY appreciated... and also returned. 💙 (I have seen some of the fan's art! And I must say, it is incredible! ⭐My fans are the most talented of all!!!⭐ Just sayin')

I mean, you're exactly the sort of person most of us would want to hang out with.

This is all 💯% true! (Side note: Star Wars, am I right?)

More than that, you gave so many of us who feel like outsiders, for a multitude of reasons, a hero we can identify with, who makes us feel like it's okay to be different. So never doubt that you are very much loved.

🤟🥺

You know, after all of these years, I've realized something -- That being true to yourself is one of the most important things you can accomplish! ⭐⭐⭐

(Unless you're, ya know, a murderer. Or a mugger. Or Hal Shtewart. Please don't be like Hal Shtewart, I beg of you -- we're still recovering)

Much love!!! 💙 👈😁👉 💙

⚡MEGAMIND⚡

Hello, Megamind, I'm quite a fan--in case the user name didn't make it obvious enough--and I love your Gothic/Metal style. I'm curious, however, do you have the musical skills to match your hard rocker look? If so, what instrument(s) do you play? (And have you ever considered giving Music Man some pointers, because, seriously, enthusiasm is great and all, but dear Gods he needs help.)

Ollo! 😃 Why, yes, I do have musical skill, my dear fan, and it is EXCEPTIONAL!!!1 I play an instrument of my own creation..... half guitar, half piano! I call it...

⭐The GUANO!⭐

You know, I told Music Man that we'd make a fantastic musical duo but he, unfortunately, prefers flying solo. Foolish, I know. Together we'd be unstoppable!!
