[rustingcat]

tagged by @inkedroplets who tagged me in a few things now, and I forgot to answer some of them. Shame on me, but thanks for the tag, darling:)

1. What sort of content do you create, and what is the thing you’ve made that you’re most proud of?

I started with art, then began writing, then started animating, and recently uploaded a fanvid 😅

I'm proud of them all because they are all part of the progress 😌

2. What fandom(s) do you create for?

Supergirl. I'm counting my Sadie/Saskia vid as supercorp.

3. What is your current favourite ship (or brotp if you prefer), and how controversial is it?

Supercorp. And apparently a lot of people don't like them because they hated supergirl? (At least according to tumblr tags in polls. But those people also accuse them of being too straight...)

4. For your answer to question 3, are they canon?

They are in my heart. Also, I feel that their last conversation was as close to canon as they could get.

5. What was your first fandom, and how old were you?

I was deep into Harry Potter for a long while in my life. That's what got me into fanfiction and tumblr. I still have a sweet spot for what it represented to me in my childhood and the stuff I took away from it despite the actions of some extreme lady.

6. What is your most unhinged fandom creation to date?

My Twilight Au fic 🤣

Was written as a parody, but somehow ended up being way too wholesome.

The power of pasta is my one crack fic, so there's also that.

7. Do you remember what started you off creating fandom content, and if so, what was it?

I was an avid consumer for years, but it was all thanks to the Supergirl fandom that I dared to try and create something. I was in the process of coming out and accepting myself for who I am, which, despite being in a very open and accepting environment and family, was really hard on me. Both the show, and especially the fandom, were what helped me not only to come out but also to see it in a positive light. It made me understand the meaning of pride, and I am forever grateful for that. That's why I decided to dedicate my time to creating stuff myself as thanks to this amazing community and to do my best to keep it active.♥️

8. Do you let people you know in real life see your fandom creations?

Some, yes. I have a few friends who know I write, but had not read any of my stuff. I have a few I share my art with, though.

9. How do you feel about fanworks of fanworks? Has anyone ever made something based on a thing you made?

Someone wrote a fic based on my art a while ago, and I'm still excited about it!

10. What feeling do you most often try to evoke with your creations?

Depends on the content. Each piece has its own purpose. I try to aim for fluff, but I've been told I accidentally write a lot of angst... oops?

11. Has someone ever paid your work a compliment (in any form) that has stuck with you, and what was it?

I'm always excited when fandom friends tell me they like my stuff. Or just anyone in general. It just warms my heart.

12. What’s your favourite thing someone else has made that you’ve seen in the last 24 hours (and link it if you can find it again!)

Have you read the most recent space log update? It's pretty cool...

13. Give a small sneak preview of something you’re working on right now (eg a couple of sentences of fic from a WIP, a gif set theme, a small piece of a larger picture, whatever you feel happy to share)

"Alex, you're saying that as if we're not literally standing at the entrance of a school for fairies." Kara said as she rested her hand on the handle of her large blue suitcase.

"Fair point."

"It is ridiculous, isn't it? Like, fairy collage, it just sounds so…"

"Bizarre?" Alex raised an eyebrow as a small chuckle escaped her lips.

Kara sheepishly nodded.

"Well, yes. Very. But that's our lives now, I suppose," Alex shrugged and shoved her hands in her jeans's pockets.

"You mean my life. You're going to badass school for ass kicking," Kara teased her sister.

Because apparently I'm not done making AUs based on questionable IPs.

And a bit of my card game AU:

Lena was the one to drag Andea to sneak out of school for a change. Only unlike her best friend, Lena didn't drag her out to a party or to drink alcohol, but instead to the local game shop where she could learn more about that mysterious game. Andrea wasn't as excited as her, but reluctantly agreed (if only to get out of trigonometry class). Fight for Justice, while being a bit too cheesy, Lena couldn't deny the strange allure of the name. She was fascinated to learn the different ways the game could change from moment to moment, the various objectives one can approach to win the game, and she couldn't help but absolutely adore the art on each and every card.

14. Have you ever seen/read anything made by the person who tagged you? If so, what was it and what was your favourite thing about it? (pick a favourite if there are several)

Rich girl with issues is a masterpiece, and you should all go read it!

15. Do you leave comments on fandom works, and if so how would you describe your comment style?

I try to always comment, and especially on stuff I like. I don't think I have a specific style tho😅

16. How many works in progress do you currently have? Will you finish them all?

I have about 12 that I actively started, but more that are in the concept phase. Ideally, I'll finish them all eventually.

17. what’s the longest it’s ever taken you to finish a fandom project?

It's been almost 2 years since I started The Art Of The Game. I'm close to the end, but it's been a while...

18. Describe the thing you made most recently in a way that is technically true, but also completely misleading. Link the thing if it’s published!

The hottest new trailer for the film we all have been waiting for;)

19. Do you ever engage with fanworks for a fandom you’re not in? Which one(s) and how did you get into it?

I feel like a foreigner when I see stuff from other fandoms, and I usually don't know enough about it to interact with it.

20. Recommend a fan work from your fandom to your followers

@awaitingrain has some really amazing artwork with adorable chibi designs! I'd recommend checking out her stuff!

Suggested tag list, but there are no rules here, follow your heart.

@eqt-95 @fazedlight @autisticlenaluthor @snowydragonscave @missluthorwillseeyounow @luthordamnvers have fun;)

[restinsodaroni]

I'll try posting the FAQ this way lol, hopefully this works better! So read below to see the asks I will and won't accept or answers to common questions I get! I'll be linking this in my pinned post!

Alright! Please read this before sending in an ask!

REMEMBER AN ACTUAL PERSON (Me) RUNS THIS ACCOUNT NOT SUN OR MOON! KEEP THAT IN MIND BEFORE SENDING ANYTHING!! THANK YOU!!

🚫Evidently I am going to have to be stricter now since I have been creeped out numerous times on here. So yeah I will be blocking folks who keep disregarding my boundaries, constantly ignoring my FAQ, or just being impolite! Sorry! 🚫

Here's a post where I talk about said boundaries.

Hey so please don't:

• Send me any questions that ask about what would Sun and Moon do if you were harming yourself no matter the severity or the circumstances. It makes me uncomfortable and I shouldn't have to explain why.

• Spam the same ask especially everyday! That is not gonna get me to answer you. Spamming = Block I am not going to be lenient about this anymore!

• Send me an ask to change Y/N's body type.

• Expect me to answer your ask right away. If I could answer them quickly I would but that's unrealistic for me

• Nitpick my art, it's very demotivating especially if it isn't a helpful critique. Like yeah you can point out bad anatomy or perspective, but if you get on me for making Sun's eyes glow in the dark, then that's just a nitpick.

• Tell me you don't like my art style, but you like my comics. It's not the compliment you think it is!

• Be rude to me in your ask, that's just gonna get you blocked. I ain't putting up with it anymore.

• Send me roleplaying asks, this counts if you send me an ask roleplaying as an OC or character. I always get confused because I get sent info that I have no idea what they are saying because I know nothing about the Oc or character. I just don't know how to respond to it.

Alright here's some answers to frequently asked questions, or some do's and don't's to send me:

How do you pronounce your Username?

It's rest in sodaroni ! It's a play on the phrase rest in pepperoni. I made a joke about it a while ago with my sibling and decided to make it my username lol. Yes I know separating the words would have been ideal, but I'm not changing it now!

Can I draw you fanart centered around your AU?

Sure you can! As long as it’s sfw then its fine!

Are you ok with nsfw being sent to you?

I am not! I’d like to keep this blog sfw please! 

How come you haven’t answered my ask?

Well that’s because I get sent A LOT of asks. And a majority of them need comic responses which takes time to do. Not to mention my schedule is pretty hectic, even when I have free time I don't know if I'll have time to myself lol.

And I have other projects, art, and my Daycare Attendant fics I want to work on too sometimes. So just know if you send in an ask it may take me a while to answer it!

Also I may not have a good idea how to answer your ask at the time. Or I'm just overwhelmed at the moment lol 😅 And please don't spam the same ask in my inbox. Spamming = Block

Where can I read your fanfics?

You can read them right here!

‼️ Disclaimer! Please read the tags and summary for either fics! I don't want you to be blindsided when you find out the fic isn't 100% fluff or wholesome! Just gonna give you a heads up lol ‼️

When will the next chapter of your fic(s) be out?

I promise you I'm working on it! It just takes me longer because of the drawings since I am putting more effort into them now! Thank you for your patience!

Can I use one of your drawings as an icon, wallpaper, etc?

Yeah that’s fine!

Why did you draw Sun, Moon, or Eclipse like *Insert questions here*?

Why does anyone draw the way they do? Because I wanted to lol, and I like how it looks. That's basically it haha. Everyone is drawing the Daycare Attendant how they want, I don't think there has to be some deep reason for it.

Will you ever turn on anon asks again?

No I don't think so, Sorry!

Do you roleplay?

Nope!

Can you draw me/myoc/my sun and moon/a meme?

Sure! But please send a picture of what you want me to draw! I got a handful of asks that requested this but sent me no reference photos so I don’t know what to draw lol.

Also don't send me drawing prompts of your characters/You getting too intimate with Sun and Moon or even Y/n. (Yes, I have to add Y/n on here now...)

If you want a hug cool, anything more than that I will probably not draw since some people can't behave lol.

If you send a question about wanting to be mean or even hurt Sun or Moon just don't get upset by the response you are given lol. It's just a comic, it's not real and Sun and Moon are not really mad.

Where do you get your gifs/screenshots of the Daycare Attendant?

I watch a lot of Fnaf security breach sfm videos on YouTube so sometimes I come across a funny video clip and screenshot or make a gif of it. If you'd like to know which video I got the image from I can try to see if I can find it!

Who is your favorite? Sun, Moon, or Eclipse?

I’ll be honest, I can’t pick between the three lol. I like them all!

One of your drawings came out weird or bad.

Please elaborate. You aren't being very helpful if you just tell me my drawing is bad, then leave without an explanation or a way I can improve. People on here do this to me a lot and I am quite tired of it.

I don't like your art style/ I don't like how you draw Sun, Moon, or Eclipse/ You don't draw as good as the other artists.

It's fine if you don't like my art style, but please just keep it to yourself, your blog, your friends, your grandmother, or whatever. Like idk why people on here felt the need to tell this to me, but yeah don't do that. And no, telling me you don't like my art style but like my comics isn't the compliment you think it is. I wouldn't have cared so much until I got a few people telling me this pretty much every time I posted. I ignored it as long as I could lol 🤷🏻‍♀️

I don't like how you interpret/write Sun, Moon, Eclipse.

Okay 👍🏻

This pertains to a few asks so I'll address it here:

I know when someone is fetish farming, I'm not naive lol. Like it seems really suspicious when I have the same person/anon desperately trying to get me to draw a specific ask 👀 soooo cut that shit out lol. It's very creepy and goes against my consent. Also chill with the dark humor.

*Ok so I’m going to be talking about a heavy topic here so read no further if you experience thoughts of self-harm or depressive thoughts!*

I don’t believe I would get an ask like this again but this is just in case! ( Edit: nevermind I did get more asks pertaining to self-harm smh ) I don’t mind drawing you something if you had a bad day, but I will not draw something for someone who requesting me to comfort them with a drawing of Sun or Moon because they self-harmed. I’m sorry if that sounds harsh, but I just can’t. I go over my reasoning in this post. Please don't send me any self-harm related questions!

*End of the serious topic!*

And that should be it! I may update this down the line! Thank you for taking the time to read this! (I know it's a lot of do's and don't's 😅 sorry about that!)

[stellaluna33]

13. My favorite line of dialogue from this fic was [xyz]. What inspired it?

14. My favorite line from this fic was [xyz]. What inspired it?

Ngl - I've never read any of your stuff, because I've never actually WATCHED Gilmore Girls (i know... I'll see myself out).

BUT. Whats YOUR favourite lines of dialogue, or lines you've written from anything you've written, and why?

Aw, you're so sweet for asking! 😅

You're going to make me compliment myself, huh? Well, ok, haha. I'll be pulling stuff from my multi-chapter fic, The Long and Winding Road.

13. Favorite line of dialogue? This was hard for me, because even though I feel like I'm pretty good at writing dialogue for these characters, everything seemed kind of lackluster to me in isolation. But this is one I've always chuckled over even though absolutely nobody else has ever mentioned it to me. 😂 "Well, I was kind of in the mood for 'the Great Gatsby' today. You know, I can enjoy the fact that Leonardo DiCaprio finally looks like a grown man, and you can enjoy telling me how 50 Cent really captures the decadence of the Lost Generation…"

This line of dialogue was inspired by... my own feelings about Leonardo Di Caprio (I NEVER got the attraction back in his heartthrob days, haha) and Baz Luhrman's the Great Gatsby, and which of these characters I thought would agree with these opinions. I don't know, I just thought it seemed like something they would say. 😂

14. Favorite line? I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this one before, so people are probably bored of hearing it, but it's: Everything about him was uncontrolled and wild, and so were her feelings about him, and she was never entirely comfortable with that. Falling in love with Jess had been like being caught in a riptide and dragged out to sea. Dean had been the slippery rock she tried desperately to cling to, but her strength just gave out in the end. She could do nothing but drown.

I don't know, I just really like it, haha. I'm a visual artist first, a poet second, and a fiction writer only third, so I tend to think in images, symbolism, and metaphor a lot. I like it. And I have a longtime obsession with the sea, so I love a good maritime metaphor. I just think the ocean (something so huge, beautiful, powerful, and life giving, but also brutal and terrifying) and the way humans interact with it make for some really vivid comparisons to powerful human emotions. And it seemed like a good metaphor for what happened to these characters, that this was a character who liked being able to plan and control her own life, and this love was too inconvenient and too overpowering to allow her to do either of those things. And accepting it felt more like losing a fight than receiving a gift. Like, she wasn't happy about it, more exhausted and resigned. (And if you're thinking that's not a great setup for a healthy relationship, you'd be right! 😅)

(The questions are here if anyone wants to ask)

[thoughtfullyrainynightmare]

This made me realize how much I dont know myself-

Okay so I'm an ISTJ, Capricorn, female and straight. When people first see me they think I'm a mean girl because of my resting face(I have a mad resting face). When I they get to speck to me I get very awkward usually shy. However I am very loud with friends. (Source is my friends)

Also many people(that I have just meet)have told me that my voice is very quiet. I believe this is because I am used to talking myself. I am used to only hearing myself that I tend to forget other people are being to hear me. This sounds really creepy but most of the time when I'm talking to myself, I am kind of day dreaming.

If my parents teachers, or any authority figure were to describe me they would say I am proper, organized, calm always trying to find peace. Some might say patient.

If a sibling(I have 4 older and 1 twin) would describe me it would be cruel(as a joke) and rude(also a joke) and basically any of these adjectives cause these individuals dont like to give proper answers. SMH

As you can tell I'm an introvert. An ultra introvert. I can stay at home for a week and some days straight, although I love exploring places. For instance I like going for walks on areas I haven't been to. I don't always do this because my brothers won't go out with me, my parents dont like exploring(they already have done these stuff) so I only have my sister, who happens to be disagreeable at times.

I hate people that make fun of you constantly. Even if it is as a joke, like thos friends that "bully" you, I'm just not into those friendships.

The closest friend to me is someone I can be weird and emotional with, can talk freely around.

My love language is acts of service such as cooking, or baking. I dont mind doing other services but these two would be a must.

I appreciate receiving gifts but it's hard for me to accept them, I feel very in debt for the most part.

I dont mind physical touch. A few years ago I felt extremely uncomfortable with it, now however I welcome it if it's from someone I love.

I've always had problems with quality time. Ofc it's important but I have always needed my alone time no matter who the person is.

I ABSOLUTELY ADORE WORDS OF AFFIRMATION. Ngl I have trouble giving those, idk it just feels like I'm gonna be laughed at. But when some says something nice about it really boots my everything!! Like J absolutely adore it and try to give it back.

I think this is about enough😅

Lots of love

-🍫

Thank you!! ^^

I match you up on a blind date with....

Magna Swing

Magna might be a loud young man, but he is a gentleman through and through. He would be there to give you all the words of affirmation you need, and compliments you on your cooking and baking, and would do so even if that wasn't your particular love language. He just genuinely finds it amazing that you're able to make such good dishes and baked goods!

He also knows that looks (as in the resting face) can be deceiving. After all, he's dressed like a punk, but he's a total sweetheart underneath. And if anyone would give you a hard time, he'd be there to defend you with all his might.

Going out on walks, or rides on his Crazy Cyclone, would be welcomed! They would be like your mini adventures amidst missions and better yet, they'd be your time together. Almost like having smaller dates regularly. (But of course there would have to be proper dates as well). He's also not that big in going to functions or parties with a lot of people. He might be loud but appreciates privacy too

Magna is a reflective person. So while he might tease Luck, he's riled up by Luck, which leads to that behaviour. However, with a spouse, he would never do that. And in friendships, he doesn't initiate it

He also understands the need of personal space, and he respects it. Everyone is their own person, and one's own interests are also important, which you should be free to do as you wish. For example he likes tuning his Crazy Cyclone. Which he's happy to do by himself. It's his "me -time". You should have that too

He's just a big sweetheart in a leather jacket

[howdoyousleep3]

I’m trying to get better at dealing with critiques and such on my writing. (I will admit, I’m a sensitive person and it can be difficult for me, so I try not to take it personally 😅). Anyways, I was wondering how you (or if you) gradually accepted criticism on your writing? Lol, I really hope it’s not just me who has trouble with that. And with that, how do you deal with people who genuinely don’t like your writing? Is there a process you go through to calm yourself down or do you just easily accept it and move on? You’re one of my favorite writers, so I just wanted to ask you this and see how you deal with it. Much love 💞

Hiiiiiiii, such a good question! Thank you for coming to me for advice and for your sweet sweet compliments. 🥺💖

The first thing I'll ask you is if you welcomed these criticisms or critiques. I only ask a select trusted few what they think about my work. I have a small group I let into my docs to help me edit and who I trust to read my unedited work. It's scary to be that vulnerable! If you didn't ask for open critiques or criticisms, then fuck them.

You are doing this for free, you are doing this because you want to. You aren't doing this for anyone else. Yes, it's lovely to have people involved in your work, giving you love and attention, but no one should willingly and openly give you critiques without your express permission.

Fuck anything that you didn't give permission to.

It's taken me literal years to build up my own self-confidence enough to completely disassociate with any hate I get. If they don't like my writing or me, they can block me (I am hella pro-block button lol) or just choose not to read. I'm not here to impress people; I'm here because I love writing and I want to get better at writing, always.

Because it's taken me years to get used to hate, I'm at the point where I roll my eyes and delete block delete delete block. I don't have time for it. Protect your peace at all costs. You have no one to impress, no one to think of, but yourself. You are Number One, baby.

Of course it used to bother me, hell yeah. How can it not? Remembering the things I mentioned above and learning that I don't have anything to prove to anyone, (deleting asks I get that are hateful or criticize my writing when I haven't asked for it), has helped me immensely.

It helps that I have those few I trust and respect to criticize my work. I tend to not feel upset when they do because of that. If I feel myself getting upset, I quickly tell them I'm not feeling it or that my mood has shifted and that, while they are free to edit and comment, I need to wait to talk about it. And usually I just need time. Time always helps me calm down. Nothing is of an immediate concern usually, so I just step away and come back.

These people are coming from a place of love and respect and I know that and that helps.

I hope this has helped! It's a process, dealing with critiques. But I encourage you to protect your peace and put yourself first. Fuck anyone who hates on you and your writing. ❤️

is it chronically online to say the way you talk about your relationship is how i imagine mike and will talking about each other or are you just helplessly in love and i am lonely 😭 sorry if im being weird but i admire the concept of love and being in love so much it’s such a beautiful thing and im so happy for you but i relate everything to byler instead of my own relationships because i have little to no romantic experiences in my life 🥲

sorry if i sound overbearing or weird i just think things before i can go over whether or not it’s a socially acceptable thing to say but i have decided to tell you all of this anyway

Aww, this is very sweet. No, I don't think chronically online, I mean, this is a space where we're all deeply entrenched in fandom more so than the average fan, and I'm posting about a very few selective topics. I think we all are here at the core of it for the reason that we just love love. I sure do. The spice is fun, the theories are fun, but I've always had a fascination with relationships in media, in shipping stuff, and I know that makes me a little different, but that's on theme, right? I like Byler because they are such a good couple to fixate on, this best friends to lovers storyline. How they contrast and compliment, the journey we've been shown through the series. How there's so much to draw from concerning who these characters are, but still so much room to play with in fandom. It's kind of intoxicating. I've never felt this connection in fandom before. I really like it.

So, not too weird, you're good! Just know while I like to joke about kind of embracing some little parts of me that really recognize something in a specific character, my relationship is honestly sooooo not like this ship we all love. I think that would be a little weird for me if I was trying to project myself through these boys or something. Exploring characters who aren't carbon copies of anything else I've been interested in over the years is cool. If something really hits way too close to home, it's just not as fresh and kinda boring to be honest? For me, at least. Fiction is fiction, reality is reality - and I really like my reality. It's escapism not because I need to get away from anything, but I've just always needed stories and to find a place to unspool my overactive imagination 😅 I do not possess a restful mind.

But the core idea - it's nice to think about love. It's why I'm around. One part is definitely true: helplessly in love is a common thread.

[f1-stuff]

I love your characters because they seem alive. And I realize that a big part of creating them to feel real is making them humans, inevitably faulty. But I find that it’s incredibly difficult to let that character be an asshole, say the wrong thing, fail, hurt someone they love. That’s an issue, of course, given that those are the things they need in order to grow and fulfill their story ark. How do you approach it? Making things the right amount of imperfect, knowing when to give into the character’s wants, and when to hold them back?

Wow first of all, thank you for saying this! 🥹 Legitimately, one of the nicest compliments to receive, and something I'd actually been thinking about recently when I felt like a character was 'too perfect' in one of my fics 😂. It’s something I still have to actively remind myself about while writing.

Damn, how to go about answering this...lol

Honestly, there isn’t one approach I have, and I wanna think that there isn't really a right or wrong 'amount of imperfect' either. It's hard to know when you haven't done enough/you've done too much, and it's sort of subjective.

I think, generally, characters' flaws are what create conflict in a story. And conflict is what drives a narrative for me. It adds suspense and tension, and creates circumstances for characters to learn and grow. You can also think of it the opposite way: what conflict could I write to help expose this character's flaws? And what conflict would expose their strengths? (because you need both in a story)

Sometimes, if I do an outline for a fic, I literally write what the characters' arcs are/what it is they need to learn or how they each need to grow. For example, for my charlos boarding school AU fic, I wrote this in my outline:

What are each of their arcs? Charles -> accepting all of himself, putting happiness before duty, realizing that he’s good enough Carlos -> he can't always fix everything/protect Charles all the time - sometimes shit isn’t simple, learning to balance his friendships and relationship

This wasn't everything that these characters needed to learn and grow about, but it did help me to determine how they might react in a relevant situation. Charles' inability to accept himself/put happiness over duty is sort of the conflict that sparks the narrative journey, and then Carlos' need to protect Charles ends up being a source of conflict to carry us into the 'third act', so to speak.

But tbh, I don't usually think about the story in that way while I'm writing. It does help to break it down like that though if I'm struggling with where to take a story. Sometimes, a character's flaws are something you plan ahead, and sometimes, they reveal themselves during the process of writing. Neither approach is right or wrong!

I often like to pinpoint a character's 'fatal flaw' or 'red flag', in a sense 😅. I feel like my own is not knowing how to say 'no,' as well as sometimes lying about/concealing my true feelings to avoid conflict. If you can pinpoint what this is for a character, it helps sooo much in making them & their actions feel real.

You can also examine instances when you've made a mistake or overreacted or done something you regret, and understand why you acted that way or what triggered it. I'm kinda extra - when I watch reality tv (read: love island), I psychoanalyze everyone 🤣. I'll be telling my roommate like, "Wow, the reason Liv keeps trying to pick a fight about who's being 'fake' is because that's one of her insecurities." Lmao.

Last thing I'll add is that even if a character isn't aware of why they feel or act a certain way, you should know why. Come up with a reason, whether it be a trauma from their past or an ideology that they've inherited from their parent or authority figure. If you don't know why a character is acting a certain way, then it won't make sense/feel real to a reader either.

I don't know if I've really answered your question bc I don't fully know the answer tbh! But I hope some of this is helpful. And feel free to ask me about a specific fic if you're curious how I arrived at certain choices! ❤️

Mikan, Hiyoko and Miu with Male reader who loves praising them and showing affection

Sorry if Miu's is short, I basically ran out of words 😅

Mikan, Hiyoko and Miu With an Affectionate S/O Who Loves to Praise Them

Mikan Tsumiki 

She has no idea how to handle it at first

She tried to deny and deflect your words of praise, insisting that they weren't true

But you kept laying on the praise and compliments, not even giving her a chance to deny it

To which she responded with tearing up and burying her face into your chest, thanking you over and over

She couldn't completely believe what you were saying, but it still felt nice to hear

Then she started to wonder if you meant what you were saying, and if it was really true

If you kept giving her praise and affection, it must have been true

But nobody had ever said these things to her before, so maybe it wasn't true

But she trusted you much more than her bullies

So she decides that you're telling the truth

After some time, she can finally accept your compliments, despite being a little flustered

Now for your affection...

Once again, she had no idea how to handle it

The first time you hugged her, she was just stiff

She basically just malfunctioned

Mikan.exe has stopped responding

But she got used to it soon enough, and would melt in your arms like butter

She loves your affection

Even more so when it's combined with your words of praise

When she has her bad days, when praise and compliments just don't cut it, just give her a big ol hug and she'll feel much better

Mikan absolutely lives for your praise and affection

She probably appreciates it the most

Hiyoko Saionji 

Acts like a big tsundere about it

When you give her your words of praise, she just says she knows and that's it

When you go off on big rants about how amazing she is, she calls you cringe

But she's blushing and secretly feeling warm inside because of it

When it comes to your affection, it's kinda complicated

She only takes it when she wants it

If you hug her out of nowhere, she'll push you off

If you ask, she'll act like a tsundere and say something like, "sure, I guess"

And she'll let you pick her up and hug her while she smiles into your chest/shoulder

Sometimes, she'll just walk to you and reach her hands up towards you, signaling for you to pick her up

You'll do it and she'll snuggle into you

Sometimes, she'll just sit in your lap while you're doing something and if you just sit there, she'll act bratty

"Well, are you gonna hold me or not?!"

So basically, you either ask to give affection, or she'll initiate/demand it

She only accepts affection when she wants it

And she may brush off your compliments on the outside, but she secretly holds them close to her heart

No matter how she acts, she loves all of you

Miu Iruma

She soaks up your praise like a sponge

"Haha! Of course I'm amazing! I'm Miu fuckin' Iruma!"

Then she'll ask demand you to keep going

She loves getting praised

And she loves affection too

When you hug her out of nowhere, she'll tease you about being clingy and unable to be away from her

Then she'll pull you close and never let you go

Like Hiyoko, when she wants affection, she takes it

She'll go to where you're laying down and just flop down on top of you

Or if you're sitting, she'll sit in your lap

She is shameless about affection

Just don't do it in public

In private, however, you can hug her whenever you want

She'll almost always accept it

I’m so sick of Rinas pretending EJ is a bad guy and only nice to his girlfriends when he’s been so supportive and helpful the whole show from complimenting Kourtney’s intersectional feminism in the pilot to telling Carlos he stepped up in 1 x 8 to genuinely asking if Ricky was ok on opening night when he asked him to play Troy. This is continued in season 2 when he makes a whole video tribute to Carlos, offers to spin the tables to help out Ricky’s transformation in 2 x 12, helping Big Red calm down before the dance battle and guiding Kourtney away from a north high kid fight in the dance battle in 2 x 7, and doing the Cal tech favor for Mazzara. And despite Rinas saying only Ricky and Gina welcomed the outsiders, EJ literally hugged Maddox and grinned at her sounding the bugle and he introduced himself to Jet, gave him space when he didn’t want to talk and then told him no one was judging him when he showed up late to auditions. Also Rinas saying he never asks or cares about how Gina is feeling except in 2 x 5 is literally not true when he checked up on her right after season 1 opening night to make sure she was ok and knew how appreciated she was not just by him but by the whole drama club (as opposed to Ricky throwing her under the bus in 1 x 5 saying everyone, not just him, thinks she’s too ambitious for her own good and everyone else’s.) EJ has always been a good guy who does the wrong things for the right reasons and Gina has said this to him directly that he’s someone who tries really hard to do the right thing and a really good guy. As for his past, he took the fall for it with his Instagram confessionals that cost him followers and leads to him apologizing to everyone he’s wronged (esp Nini and Emily Pratt) but also he still regrets it in 2 x 8 in the couch scene so to pretend he hasn’t had incredible character growth is completely contradicted by the literal show canon and Rinas can ship Rina all they want, I just don’t know why they can’t do it without slandering EJ Caswell. Also for the making her cry claim, just as Ricky didn’t know he made Gina cry except in the 2 x 6 flashback, EJ had literally no way of knowing Gina cried over him canceling their date so for Rinas to passionately defend Ricky for the same thing they vilify EJ for is very odd.

why do gicky shippers pretend like ricky accepted gina's ambitiousness? he called her out on it in the homecoming episode in season one. "i sorta thought you were classier than this but, hey, maybe you really are what people say you are... just a little too ambitious for your own good... or anyone else's." straight out of the script. in season two, when nini tells gina, "you have this energy about you that is so," and gina says, "off putting." she probably remembered what ricky said to her at hoco and just the way he treated her throughout the season, it didn't help. THE REAL GINA STANS DON'T FORGET. (From an/o anon)

THIS. ALL THIS.^^^ 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

(The one thing I will say, Ricky did [sorta] apologize for that comment in 1.05. If Gina forgave him, I think we can forgive him too LOL😅)

[the-travelling-witch]

AAAH Holly!! Congrats on your follower milestone, I'm so proud of you! 🥰

I just saw your event and of course I want to participate :3

Pronouns: She/Her Fandom: Genshin Impact Gender of the character: Male Matchup: Romantic >///< A little bit about me:

I'm 100% a perfectionist and sometimes totally get upset or angry at myself when I can't seem to get something the way I want it to be.

My confidence... what confidence? No really, I have none.

I'm a pretty cheerful and easygoing person I'd say. No matter what's going on inside of me I don't let it out on others.

Some of my favorite activities are writing, drawing, gaming, gardening and watching anime.

I cherish honesty, loyalty and a sense of humor in other people.

I love all animals but cats and red pandas are my favorite.

I heavily dislike lack of punctuality and dishonesty.

It's hard to gain my full trust and if someone has once betrayed it I'm someone who needs a long time to forgive them, I'm pretty resentful 😅

As for my random number I choose 6!

I'm looking forward to the potion you're gonna brew for me. 🥰

hi, dear, the wait is over! your potion has bubbled over the fire for a while now and is now finally ready to be picked up, i do hope this bit of magic is what your looking for ♡

oh, i almost forgot! a handsome man came by looking for you, i believe his name was...

ZHONGLI Geo Archon

You had been patiently waiting in line, looking around the small tea shop for a table to sit at while your tea was being brewed. Deciding on a nice spot by the window, you thanked the barista as she handed you a small tray before turning to the next customer. Carefully you turned around, eyes trained on your order.

Just then, someone seemed to appear right in front of you, the tray dipping forward as you collided with them. Out of instinct, you screwed your eyes shut only to hear the shattering sound of porcelain and the tell-tale noise of perfectly good tea being wasted. But when you opened your eyes again, the first thing you saw was a tall man whose elegant coat was now drenched. You quickly grabbed some napkins and began dapping at his dress shirt, all the while stumbling through apology after apology.

“Oh my, I´m so sorry! I didn´t see you there, are you alright? The tea was still pretty hot and- oh archons, I´m so so sorry!”

You were cut off by a gloved hand gently catching your wrist, making you stop and look up at two intense amber eyes. “Please, do not fret. This is not the first time such an incident has occurred and it will likely not be the last. I can assure you I am perfectly fine. If I assess the situation correctly you have been spared the imminent change of clothes?”

“Oh uhm- yes, I somehow avoided taking a tea shower,” you said, to which the handsome stranger let out a deep chuckle.

“That is good to hear. Now, please accept my offer of replacing your tea as an apology. It was an oversight on my part to not look at my path ahead for which I am truly remorseful. If you´d be so inclined, I would not mind joining you in enjoying this delightful brew.” A serene smile showed on his features when you kindly agreed. “Pardon me, I have yet to introduce myself. My name is Zhongli, it is an honour to meet you. How may I address you?”

Not me being obvious ehe~

Honestly, even if I didn´t know it is you, I still would´ve matched you up; you´re just made for one another <3

No confidence you say? Well, Zhongli makes it his goal in life to change that, whether he notices it or not

You´ll be hard-pressed to find any given situation in which he doesn´t compliment you, yet, he´s never overbearing with it, he´s always genuine about it and truly means what he says

He thanks his lucky stars, Celestia, whatever other higher power there is that he was fortunate enough to meet you and he can´t help but voice it

Working with Hu Tao can be quite taxing and really drains is energy some days, so he looks forward to spending his free time with you

Your presence alone is enough to ease his mind; you don´t even have to do anything necessarily, just existing in the same space makes him feel so loved and cherished

There´s nothing he enjoys more than joining you for a warm cup of tea while he shares stories of a Liyue long gone that might be of interest to you

Zhongli always looks forward to learning more about your interests and adding his own knowledge on the topic

Let´s say you´re tending to some plants you´ve grown, he´ll ask you about how to properly care for each of them if he doesn´t know already; if you ever need to leave for an extended period of time, it´s safe to say your plants are in capable hands

Also… Zhongli is still a bit clueless and clumsy when it comes to mortals´ way of life, having you around to patiently guide him would mean the world to him (remind him to bring his wallet, please)

In return, he would absolutely not tolerate you talking down to yourself when something doesn´t turn out “perfect”, it´s hard to stay mad at yourself when Zhongli is calmly rationalising the situation without ever taking a patronising tone (yes, he might be a lot older but you´re still equals)

Also! MANNERS!!

A tried and true gentleman if Teyvat has ever seen one

He´d never even fathom being dishonest or disloyal with you; he values you too much to ever let you down like that

Being on time is also a matter of respect towards the other person, so you best believe he´s always punctual

In conclusion, Zhongli is everything you could´ve wished for and more but don´t be deceived! If you think you are the lucky one in this relationship, he will politely, but vehemently, disagree with you

He´s had the fortune to meet quite a many people in his extended life span but you truly shine like the brightest gem to him

[Bonus: since Liyue is based on China, you might actually see a red panda while out and about with Zhongli! They´re said to be a sign of good luck because of their rarity, right?]

Okay, let´s be honest here, choosing Zhongli was the easy way out, so I also match you with…

THOMA Housekeeper of the Kamisato Clan

The waves crashed against the side of the ship while the sun glared down on the passengers. As you stood against the railing pointing towards your destination, a towering mountain started taking form at the horizon.

Now that both the Sakoku decree as well as the Vision Hunt degree had been abolished, you could finally fulfil your dream of visiting the Land of Eternity. So, without hesitation, you had packed your things and hopped aboard the Alchor. The captain of said ship joined you at the bow, easy smile on her lips as she stood with a hand on her hip.

“Man, it sure is nice to sail the Inazuman sea without that big storm interfering. Not that it would´ve caused us major trouble but it´s a welcome change to actually be able to take in the scenery.” Beidou turned to you. “So, any plans on what you´re going to do once we arrive?”

“Not really, no. There´s so much to see though, I doubt I´ll have any trouble finding something to explore,” you said. “Not that there were a lot of tourist brochures coming from Inazuma recently. But I guess that´s what makes it even more interesting.”

“Haha, spoken like a true adventurer!” Your friend gave you a friendly, albeit rather strong, pat on the back. “But I might know someone who could give you a hand in that.”

She didn´t elaborate further on her last comment, telling you to simply “wait and see” but as Ritou came into view, you didn´t think too hard about it. In no time, the Alchor was anchored on the small pier of the island and the crew started unloading their cargo.

“Thanks again, Beidou. It sure was a lot more comfortable sailing with you.” The captain assured you, there was nothing to be thanking her for, you were always welcome aboard her ship and within her crew. “Oh right, you said something about someone I might be able to turn to. Who are they and how do I find them?”

Someone behind you cleared their throat. “If I´m not completely reading the situation wrong, you´ve already found me. Or am I not the one you had in mind, Captain?”

When you turned around, you came face-to-face with a smiling blond donned in traditional Inazuman clothing with a bright spark in his green eyes. Beidou greeted the young man and filled him in on your situation.

“Ah, first time in Inazuma, I take it? Welcome to Ritou, then. If you have any questions, please don´t hesitate to ask me!” You couldn´t exactly pinpoint what it was but something about him made you immediately feel calmer, even in this new environment. “My name is Thoma and I´m the housekeeper of the Kamisato Clan, nice to meet you.”

Another very wholesome and level-headed boy

Thoma´s demeanour is mature and calm, yet, he´s far from boring to be around

If you´re not from Inazuma he´d love to show you around Narukami Island; considering his position as the housekeeper of the Kamisato Clan and resident “fixer” he has lots of far-reaching connections, so the experience will be unlike any other

Won´t let you talk down to yourself pt. 2; Thoma will gently coax you to take a break from whatever you´re working on, quickly whipping up a little snack while either giving his insight on your project or taking your mind off it, whatever you prefer

He´s usually pretty busy with his duties towards the Kamisato Clan which makes him feel somewhat guilty because he can´t spend as much time with you

That´s why he appreciates it tremendously when you come to visit him, taking your writing or drawing projects with you, this way he can pop in on you every now and then, making sure you´re doing okay

We´ve seen the way he takes care of the Clan´s “problems”, so if someone crossed you…well, you´re probably not going to hear from them again, except for them seeking your forgiveness perhaps

Thoma is diligent to a fault and would probably spoil you into the high heavens if you let him, please convince him to take a break and relax, he works enough as it is

Did someone say cats?

When you tell him you´d like to go and feed the strays around the grand tree in Inazuma City, Thoma falls for you all over again (he takes a ton of candid shots of you playing with the little furballs)

Something about seeing you care for them so attentively just makes his heart beat out of his chest

Honestly, both of you are easy-going and fun to be around, so people are naturally drawn to you, it´s easy to make new friends or fit in at a social gathering (sunshine to everyone but those who did you wrong x2)

Your relationship is very supportive and I get some domestic vibes from both of you; just cooking together, tending to plants, strolling along festivals and street markets, these types of things come to mind <3

The question you chose is “Are you an early bird or a night owl?”

Night owl, definitely, no questions asked; rationally, I know I´ll feel better if I go to bed and wake up early but somehow when I´m working on something it´s suddenly 3am… weird…

A funny little story from my finals phase in school: I had a question about something we had to submit for a newspaper that would be published once we graduate, so I asked my friend who was on the responsible committee about it and because I am me, it was 4am when I texted her…she texted back two seconds later (no, I didn´t wake her up, we were both just awake)

[circlique]

Your post about asexuality, so true :/ I'm not even sure I'm ace, but I probably am to an extent (it is rare for me to feel sexual attraction towards a specific person, and even when it happens it is quite weak and not enough to make me act on it), I did get platonic crushes that made my head spin, I am easily attracted to what I find aesthetically pleasing, I love the idea of cuddling and being close, but there's hardly any sexual desire in it. Talking of sex when it comes to irl people feels always kind of meh (like, I can and will engage in sex talking when it comes to fandom and even write/read fics/manga about it and have sexual fantasies over a few fictional characters but real people?? Thinking sex is an important thing? Makes me uncomfortable, I'm sorry) and I'm often subject to the "get engaged, marry, have kids" kind of talk. It's so hard to be taken seriously, also because I'm platonically attracted to men only and this, to many people, seems to equal "cute virgin who hasn't found the right man" big time. No sorry, I highly doubt true love would ever suddenly make me feel sexual. I'm not sex repulsed but god, do I not give a damn. I can't help but find it degrading and selfish if someone likes me sexually. I just can't help it, it's beyond me. "You look sexy" sounds more like an insult than a compliment to me.

I'm in my late 20s and this has never changed. My mom, among all the "find true love" teasing and trying to set me up for a date, occasionally asks me if I actually like guys or not and it's so hard to reply because I know she's not ready to hear the truth, if there's one. Perhaps she's starting to figure it out, but she doesn't even know asexuality is a thing and even if I tried talking about it, she'll end up claiming it's just because of my other fears making me feel 'stuck'. Well, I highly doubt it's about my trust issues because I've been feeling like this ever since I was 10-11, which is before I started developing those fears.

Besides, it's SO HARD trying to confess to someone I am attracted to because I know they'll most likely not understand how I feel and they'll expect sex. I know "not all men" but come on, that's true. It's so hard to have your feelings known when they don't necessarily imply sexual desire and many people see this as a deal breaker 😕

Sorry for venting out a little here, I rarely get to talk about how I feel about this and I don't think I know any ace enough to talk about these things 😅

No worries about venting, it helps to know others are in the same boat! I think from what you said it sounds like you definitely could be asexual.

Mildly wfsn discussion below cut.

Asexuality is a spectrum too, so it’s possible to still feel attraction sometimes and even enjoy sex as an asexual person. Societal pressure is strong to find someone and get married and all that but you shouldn’t need to settle for a relationship that you’re not happy in. It sucks how much people equate love with sex and while sexual compatibility plays a role in romantic compatibility, you can absolutely have fulfilling relationships with non-asexual people as an asexual person. I’ve been in a loving relationship with someone for four years who is understanding of my asexuality because they love me for things besides sex, and we make it work. Contrary to popular belief, having sex is not the only way to achieve sexual satisfaction! Communication, compromise, and consent are hugely important. Granted, no or non-traditional sex is a dealbreaker for some people and that should be respected. The key is to not force yourself to do things you’re not comfortable with for another person, and a person who really loves you and accepts you won’t guilt or pressure you into doing those things in the first place.

Basically what I’m saying is, don’t give up! If you like a person you should tell them, and if you’re not compatible that’s okay and at least you know, and if it’s not a dealbreaker for them then at least you know you’re with a person who can communicate and compromise which is hugely important for any relationship anyway.

🤩/💞 + 🧠 (the headcanon being for one you picked for the favorite/comfort character) and also 🥺 and ✨ (sorry if that's too many at once, you don't have to do all of them if you don't want to)

I LOVE TO ANSWER MULTIPLE ONES, DO NOT WORRY!!!! Like if you just sent them all?? Maybe a lil too much 😂 otherwise, absolutely no biggie!!!

Since Legends Arceus is what I'm currently writing for, these will all be PLA related. (Shockingly, I have written for other fandoms in the past! 😂)

🤩 Who is your favorite character to write?

TBQH I am fond of JtR Dawn and Akari. I love Dawn's reckless bullshit and Akari developing a bit more backbone. I feel a bit more freedom writing them, like there's less expectations on getting people's perceptions of them correct, so they tend to come easier.

Fire at Will Akari is almost in first, just because I wrote her first and therefore I adore her most. There is an entire PLA playthrough story in my head, but I've said it before and I'll say it again- that story would absolutely end up being over 100k words and I don't know if I have the time, dedication, and ability for that! Maybe one day...

💞 Who's your comfort character?

Tossup between Akari and Ingo tbh. When I get stressy I start thinking about Fire at Will and writing for that series again 😂 little things... I am very soft towards it. I have many ideas for it still.

Anyway, Akari but only Akari-not-Dawn because... Dawn being Akari is not my personal headcanon, in any way, shape, or form, and I like to imagine Akari being taken from somewhere she knew and fumbling and learning and still being accepted. Maybe not by everyone, but by enough people that she finds comfort and family.

And Ingo because the fandom made me fond of the silly subway man. I don't have a lot of headcanons for him because of,,,, Reasons :) mostly my own concern at people seeing my version of him and coming off rude and "that's not the right way to do Ingo" but 🤷🏼‍♀️ he's fun. I like the amnesia. I like going around in game and like- I've found only one pearl clan member who brings him up. I like to think he's solitary for whatever reason, but meeting the protag (Akari) helps open him up a lil. Literally brings him down the mountain. I like thinking of two people in similar circumstances finding common ground so- yes. Akari and Ingo are my comfort characters for PLA 🙈😅

🧠 Pick a character, and I'll tell you my favorite headcanon for them.

Akari- probably obvious, but my favorite headcanon for her is that Arceus pulled her from an entirely different universe/world that didn't have pokemon. The fact that you can answer "no" to Laventon asking if you know what pokemon are.... delicious.

Ingo- I like to think Ingo is a nickname, actually! I know people have unique names, but I like to headcanon that he's got some really benign, normal name (like- Emmet isn't common but isn't UNCOMMON you know?) and that as a kid, every time I go saw a train he would say "In go! In go!" cause he wanted to get in the train, so his parents started calling him "Ingo" and it's just. What everyone knows him as now. I know several people by their nickname (one guy at work is only known as Squints) and one of my best friends goes by her middle name primarily. Every time I see her email me I get confused before I remember her email is her actual first name. I like to think that very few people know what Ingo's given name is and get confused when anyone requests him by such.

🥺 Is there a certain type of moment or common interaction between your characters that never fails to put you in your feels?

COMFORTING. God, comforting. After injury, or a nightmare, or an argument. Giving apologies and discussing things and ending it with a hug.... I'm such a goddamn sucker for hurt/comfort. I'm so soft. I'm 10 ply. I wanna write angst so I can write the comfort aftermath constantly. Always.

✨ Give you and your writing a compliment. Go on now. You know you deserve it. 😉

(boooo 😂😂) I don't know how to compliment myself. That's not a cry for help, that's the honest truth. I have ✨Issues✨. I will try!

Despite what is probably an excessive use of commas, I am good at writing characters considering their actions and surroundings. I have fun when writing and that's what's most important.

Thank you 💚💚💚
