I can’t believe people assign Kaveh the yandere trope sometimes like that is SO ooc he literally wouldn’t ?! I mean I personally don’t care if he is or isn’t but canonically speaking bro let his own mother whom he loved so dearly to leave FOR HER SAKE even though he was so hurt by her going … he would not trap somebody like he would probably end up killing himself from guilt like are you serious 😭

[titaswrld]

I have a request for a deadpool fic, if you could make a very angsty story where deadpool thinks he is undeserving of love and never thinks someone in this world would fall for him 😭 he is self-conscious about his looks and never in his right mind it crossed him that he has a chance with the reader, but he would do anything just to feel loved. he's just a constantly depressed ball of sadness, and the only way he copes with his thoughts is his dark humor. while the reader is head over heels for that man, and she's showering him in love, but he only thinks it's because they're friends 😭🫶🏼

|an: finally writing forreals again! i needed to get back into it. thank u for ur request, i hope u like it😇 reader is a baker bc i couldn’t think of a more wholesome career path😭

you’ve known your best friend, wade wilson, for almost a year now. starting off as just occasional friends, hanging out at each other's apartments, watching chick flicks, and eating your weight in junk food until your friendship grew into something deeper, feeling nothing but love and admiration for another and the desire to be something more.

he’s so in love with you; he knows that now. he tried to deny it; he tried telling himself there’s no way, there’s absolutely no way a woman as intelligent, as confident, and as kind as you could ever love a monster like him. He knew you deserved better—a handsome, young, intelligent accountant or something.

his field of work is dangerous; he knows that. killing random people he doesn’t even know for cash. large sums of cash, sure. but, nonetheless, killing. he honestly always found it humorous, a trained marksman, mercenary, and vigilante , with his super cool awesome, still in school to become a pâtissière best friend!

he knew you’d leave; he knew no human being on planet earth could bear even looking at his rough, bumpy skin. that’s why he’s yet to show you his face, never failing to wear his mask around you, even though you’ve known each other for so long now. he didn’t know why you were still around after all this time even with the mask on, he knew most people found him to be annoying, aggravating, and just an all around piece of shit person, but for some reason, you liked him, and you enjoyed being around him.

he’s never had someone so close to him, as you are with him. you’re so kind, so affectionate, and so touchy. he thinks it’s just pity, you’d never think of him as anything more than a friend.

he dreamt of being the man who loved you the rest of your life; he wished that he could fall asleep and wake up to your face every day, make you laugh every day, eat every meal with you, watch every movie and every show, spend every holiday together, fuck, even start a family. he craved you. he craved your love, your care, and your kindness; he wanted to be normal with you, but he’s not normal, far from it. he knew better than that. he knew he didn’t deserve that. he would never be the man that you love.

he’s not ready to let you go, but he can’t keep his feelings for you inside any longer. he honestly dug himself into an even deeper hole, choosing to come over almost every free night he had. he couldn’t stay away from you; he hated being away from you. during every mission and every fight, all he thought about was coming home to you. you’re the only person who truly understood him for the man that he is, and he loves you for that. he’s never opened up to anybody the way that he’d opened up to you. you were special, so special to him. he was terrified.

you felt hopeless, stupid, and desperate. every advance you made, you’d failed. from baking him his favorite treats, to holding his hand while you watched a movie on the couch, to giving him hugs that lasted a little longer than necessary after a long mission, you couldn’t get your best friend out of your mind, not if you tried. hou crave him, his love, his care, his stupid fucking jokes that never end, his sarcastic nature, his sass—you don’t think you have ever loved a man the way that you love wade.

sometimes, he made you think that he might like you back, that he might have some sort of romantic interest in you, but it was quickly shut down after he made a joke, basically telling you that it would never happen.

you and wade were sitting on the couch, just talking, telling stories, and catching up after a particularly long time apart. until you had thought of a statement, that could’ve told you whether or not wade may or may not feel the same way.

your best friend, mia, had mistaken you and wade for a couple while on the phone. when you denied her statement, she apologized, saying she’s sorry for assuming, but you did spend all your time together..

when you told wade what she said, he doubled down in laughter before spitting out, “you? me? never. who is this friend? have i met her? has she seen me before? you might need to get her 5150’d.”

which did shatter your heart into a million pieces, but nonetheless, it wouldn’t stop you from trying to show him how much you care, how much you want to be with him, and how much you want to love him. he deserved love, and you wanted to give it to him.

each time he made a self-deprecating joke, it broke your heart. it was torture for you. the most he would ever do is lift his mask slightly when he ate with you, only to pop a piece of food in his mouth, then sheathe his face with his mask once again to chew, repeating the process until he’d finished. but even then, you never looked out of respect.

there were multiple occasions where you could’ve snuck a peek, where you could’ve turned around and saw his full face, but you knew how genuinely insecure he felt and how scared he was for you to see his face, so you never looked, not wanting to betray his trust or make him uncomfortable. you loved him, and you wish he understood that absolutely nothing could change that. especially not the way he looks.

today, you were sat on your couch, waiting for him to arrive. He said he’d be over tonight for the usual—rom-coms and junk food. but today, you felt different, your balls finally dropped, and you were ready to admit how you felt, whether it was a good or bad outcome, you were ready.

every single worst-case scenario clouded your thoughts, making your palms sweaty and causing a deep ache in your chest until you heard a knock at your door, saving you from plummeting even farther into your head.

you open the door, and time feels slow motion. you didn’t see deadpool; you saw wade for the first time- the real wade. standing there with an anxious expression plastered across his mottled face, snacks in one hand and flowers ripped from the dirt outside of your apartment complex in the other.

your stomach dropped along with your expression, the shock stunning you into place as you began to gather your thoughts. this is what he was hiding, you thought. jesus christ, all of that trouble for this? you could almost hit him.

wade, on the other hand, paced in your hallway, back and forth for 15 minutes before this, trying to decide whether he should just bail and leave the fucking country or finally stop being pussy and just show you his goddamn face.

after seeing your initial reaction, his head dropped, his gaze on the floor, as he muttered, “i know. total freak show, right? freddy kruger? craterface? cmon, lay it on me.”

now was your chance, as you cupped his face with your hands and pressed your soft lips against his dry, cracked ones. you felt his tense muscles drop and relax as he melted into the kiss, relishing in the feeling and making sure it was real, too.

you’d pulled away, looking him in the eyes and flashing a smile his way before placing kisses all over his cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin.

your gaze fell across his face once again, this time meeting you with a shit-eating grin plastered across his face.

“so— ten things i hate about you, or steel magnolias?”

Louis the Vegetarian Vampire

Louis de Pointe du Lac's ethical vampirism is very special to me. Let's look at his journey to no- (human) kill blood-drinking!

Louis the human doesn't enjoy violence but is willing to threaten violence to preserve his reputation. Unsurprisingly, Louis the vampire is haunted by murdering people to live:

Louis feels like a failed vampire, but he's honest about his feelings:

When Louis adopts Claudia, he tries to impart his ethics and guide her vampire journey...

but he respects her eating choices:

(Shout out to my fellow vegans and vegetarians, who's had this conversation?)

While Lestat's feelings don't move him to change his eating habits 🤭, Claudia's feelings do:

But even with this compromise, Louis won't drink more human blood than he needs to (note Lestat channeling Armand here):

And in Paris, Louis balances his own ethics with Claudia's need for companionship:

At the trial, the TDV and audience try to shame him for his animal eating, but Claudia defends him (look at my man, fuck the TDV forreal):

After Claudia's death, Louis drank from drug-ridden humans to cope. Ultimately however, he mastered the 'little drink' and found a non-lethal (to humans) way of blood-drinking (and he wants the readers to know this...🤔)

To me, AMC!Louis is part of the pantheon of black vampires that refrain from killing humans (i.e., Blade, Gilda, Shori). He doesn't suffer from an eating disorder and he doesn't need to be fixed - he chooses to minimize his killing as much as possible to align with his moral code. I hope he continues to spread his murder-free message to new vampires in future seasons 🥰

id as a terf if youre gonna post that shit forreal

i know you guys would rather die than actually think about trans women and transmisogyny but hating men isn’t what TE stands for you know that right. also jesus fuck learn how to scroll past smth that you hate, im sorry that lesbian artist doesn’t like rapists, you’ll learn to cope somehow someday i’m sure

[imeverywoman420]

When i was 16 i was on that twitter pretty princess bimbo tradwife logic way before it even blew up so dont even try me with that bullshit about how being vapid and prissy and entitled and clownish and hysterical and lacking accountability is actually good….. one of the worst things women do to each other is censor each other. In a way men almost never do. Bc if you suggest any aspect of behavioral femininity is bad its all “UMMM actually women developed this as a coping survival mechanism how dare you suggest women are responsible for their actions shes just a baby she cant handle critcism”

the most respectful, looking out for your fellow woman thing you can do. Is to not “yasss queen slay”. The best thing is to stop talking like a drunk toddler with internet access and stop enabling, stop encouraging self sabotage and self infantilization, and just be forreal. No emojis no coddling no baby talk just straight to the point.

first day as the ghost valley master

found this in my drafts, unfinished, and I don't have the motivation to complete it so yall can have it as is. if you don't know what this is referencing look up "second century warlord" you won't be disappointed

***

first day as the ghost valley master I kill the old valley master and show his decapitated head to my new subjects to inspire fear but I'm standing very high up on a hill and they're in the valley below so they can't see what I'm holding and kinda just squint at me

second day as the ghost valley master it turns out ruling the ghost valley sucks so I take my sister and go out in the jianghu to cause chaos and mayhem and get revenge, but my sister gets into a fistfight with a guy disguising himself as a beggar. I think he's sus so I decide to flirt with him and follow him around to uncover his motives

third day as the ghost valley master my minions attack the manor of one of the major sects to get back the piece of glazed armor I pretended to have had stolen from me. the sus beggar sees me at the scene of the crime but doesn't make a big deal out of it, so maybe he's an okay guy. the whole sect is killed except for the youngest son, who the sus beggar and I are now co-parenting. my sister laughs at me

fourth day as the ghost valley master we are taking the orphaned kid to his uncle and now I'm flirting with the sus beggar forreal. we get attacked by actual beggars who want the orphan for themselves and I let my sus beggar fight them off on his own so I can enjoy the sight. turns out he has an internal illness that fucks up his martial arts so he's understandably mad at me. I save the day at the last moment and destroy the actual beggars

fifth day as the ghost valley master my suspicions are confirmed. the sus beggar was wearing a disguise to conceal his identity and his ethereal beauty. turns out he's my old shixiong that I knew for like a day before I got kidnapped by the ghost valley and I'm not really sure how to cope with this. also we dropped the orphan off with his uncle and I kinda miss having a son. I tell my sister to sneak into the orphan's uncle's sect and keep an eye on him

sixth day as the ghost valley master my sus no-longer beggar and I are going on a bunch of dates and stumble upon a piece of the glazed armor. I'm ready to be disappointed, thinking he'll want it for himself just like everyone else, but instead he says it only brings trouble and gifts it to me to do whatever I want with it. what I really want to do with it is revenge, so I have thirty copies of it ordered and incite people to fight to death over them. my no-longer beggar confronts me, and I point to his own past crimes to show the hypocrisy of this. we break up and I leave to get plastered

seventh day as the ghost valley master after breaking up and making up a couple more times, my sus non-beggar bf and I are on the road again with our orphaned son who we kidnapped from his uncle. we meet a weird old guy who claims he can cure my sus non-beggar bf's illness, but it comes at the cost of his martial arts so my bf refuses and we fight about it. I wonder what the point is in achieving my goals and getting revenge if I'm going to lose the man I love

Hiiii! Question. I LOVE YOU!!! 💕🥰✨😘🫧 MARRY MEEEEEE!!!!!

Not really the actual question but still had to get that off my chest. But forreal tho. Out of EN- who do you think prefers brats and who prefers like baby girls. Like obviously some might be in the middle of the range but what do you think.

anyways…💍 MARRY ME💍 (if i don’t get a yes just know i will be forever heartbroken and will spend my days watching Heeseung edits to cope)

HIHII MY LOVE AND IM SAYING YES cmere marry me 😔🫶🏼

i feel like sunghoon loves brats and jay loves baby girls, heeseung also likes brats cause he loves to put them in their place, while jake just wants a girl, doesn’t matter a brat or a babygirl 😋

(don’t be heartbroken i gotcha babes 🫶🏼)

[girlypsyop]

Ok finally watched dtamhd forreal not just the heart-eating scene for lust reasons and

Everyone saying he won... did we watch the same episode? I get it, he "lowered his blood pressure" and threw the kratom bottle into the trash in a cool way I guess but

All I saw was the most manic, deranged teenage-girl coping strategy of my life.

The narrative didn't have to punish him because he punished himself for 19 minutes straight. That's like watching someone fall down a mineshaft and claiming that they won just because they got up afterwards.

Girl he is splattered all over the floor!!

[ageless-soul-au]

anon from yesterday, my favorite part was Legend's gender euphoria moment in Gerudo Town. I'm transmasc, and it just hit so hard knowing exactly what that moment felt like. And it surprised me since I'd normally pick something with my hopeless-romantic brain like the part where Link wakes up in Legend and Ravio's bed, but it just. It really hit home.

I love the romance, the deep emotional connections, the acknowldgement of trauma and good/bad coping mechanisms, but the thing I find myself raving to my partner/friends about more is just how inclusive the whole thing is and how strongly that hit me right in the heart.

YESSSS that's exactly what the trans shit is for!!! Fuck yes!!!!! I'm so glad that hit right, I really try to pour my all into Legend's euphoria moments. The romance is all well and good, you're right, but I also think that the pure joy that euphoria brings is hard to match.

Just!!!!!! Ahxgxgxgshxgsjjwjdhxjsxbxgshb it makes us so happy that this fic has touched you enough that you'd talk to other people about it!!!! Like oh my gosh that is one of the highest compliments writers can receive. This fic didn't start out with All The Inclusivity in mind, it just kind of developed that way with the stories we like to tell. Really, this was supposed to be about how Legend and Warriors' relationship got its start, and it just.... got out of hand lmao hxvxbsbsns

Thank you sososososso much forreal, to hear how much you liked feels better than belief!!!

ASAU was meant originally to be an outlet, and to be something that allowed for exploring things with the characters that mean so much to us. This is us being as genuine as we can be (while being self indulgent with our blorbos) and learning things along the way! I was INCREDIBLY clueless about a lot of the gender and orientation concepts presented as Asau flows onward at the beginning, but I wanted Kio to feel comfortable writing what makes them happy with me. So, I encouraged them to be self indulgent with Legend to start, “go ham, and I’ll listen when you explain things”. Thats what framed the mindset Warriors has, and as time has gone on, he and I have learned a lot! We’re better for it! And that that creates a space where our readers and online friends feel seen and safe is incredible to us. Im so glad you’re enjoying what we do here, it really does warm the heart. I hope you continue to enjoy!

Hi I'm not mad anymore

Well I am

But I'm going to eat lunch

Btw I know social anxiety is like way more than just "can't talk to cashiers at mcdonalds" disease I feel like I worded that badly. Cause I got mad

It is forreal debilitating at times though and like yeah people can find ways to cope and get better and exposing yourself to social situations can help you get more familiar and okay with being in them BUT I fucking hate the attitude people have where they are so condescending and mean to people who struggle with this stuff it's just so funny that half the comments on that post like. Literally said shit like "anxiety actually CAN be helped if youre willing to put the effort in" I'm sorry the physical bodily involuntary chemical fucking response of anxiety. Can be controlled through willpower. That's fucking news to me. You sound like conservatives is my point you sound like "uh just stop being anxious" I can't tell you how many times I've heard that from people in my life when i needed actual fucking help. Call me triggered I guess lol

Ok I talked myself into being mad again. Sorry. I'm gonna eat a sandwich and get less mad

[dankovskaya]

IT SOUNDS so edgy forreal but like. I truly think the cleansing nature of getting the shit beat out of him is probably the main reason he can cope with his fucking job.

[mint-yooxgi]

Oh my goodness !!!

I think I kicked my feet a lil when I saw that teeny spirit detail about hwa’s blood referencing right back to one of the earlier chapters when he saw MC’s grandma in his tailor shop 😭😭😭😭

But anywho, you wrote the angst and comfort so beautifully :( the range of panic and anguish combined with comfort that, realistically, doesn’t quite fix everything, but still greatly helps MC and the boys cope a bit better with the reality of the situation was so good 😤 I forreal ate that shit UP. this update was absolutely EVERYTHING

-🐝

Ahhh, I'm so glad you enjoyed the callback to OC’s grandma!!! I really enjoyed writing it!! Both times lol

Thank you so much!!! I’m so glad you enjoyed the pacing of the fic and the amount of hurt/comfort it brought to the table!! Exactly, there will still definitely be some lingering effects from Miyeon between all of them for a while. She did her damage, and her strikes were deep. Thank you for reading!!

[7waystreet]

“Is the bitch expelled yet?” NGL THIS LINE ALONE BROKE MY HEART 😭😭😭 yes we’re all aware of Taehyung’s intentions by now but those words still shattered me into pieces LMAOOOOO when y/n comes to know about everything he did and said I just hope Taehyung is gonna feel AT LEAST a little guilt and be ashamed of himself,, (read: I WANT HIM TO SUFFER DEEPLY 😫😫) there’s just no way he hasn’t gotten at least a little attached to y/n so yeah I really wanna see how he’ll manage to cope. JUNGKOOK IN THIS CHAPTER HAS MY HEART 🥺🥺🥺 I’m not turning a blind eye on him cause he still did some fucked up shit but I can tell he’s going through some kind of character development and I’m all for it 🥲 and Jimin is just so,,,, CONFUSING 😭😭😭😭 I swear I can totally relate to y/n’s mixed up feelings about him LMAOO

tae's breaking hearts forreal >.< and jk with the glowup to his personality too? they're all evolving and discovering themselves in a true coming of age way, and i wanna make it as authentic as can be in this university campus au. spoiler — there's gonna be more than one confrontation next ch. with y/n approaching both taehyung and jungkook for answers, and we'll get clarity on tae and jk's feelings through their convos with y/n! and you might be surprised by it all~ but i won't reveal too much yet hehe. the way the boys are evil yet end up being likable is the charm i wanted to bring to this story. jimin is a curveball no doubt, bias wrecking y/n in her universe in all sense LOL
