I will NEVER be okay about izuku and toshinori's relationship. Like, THEY SAVED EACH OTHER. THEY LIVE FOR EACH OTHER.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
THEY CANNOT BEAR TO LOSE EACH OTHER
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A MAN WITH THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD ON HIS SHOULDERS. WEIGHED DOWN BY INJURY AND SELF-IMPOSED ISOLATION. WHO HAD RESOLVED TO WALK FORWARD, WHITTLING HIS BODY AWAY UNTIL HE REACHED A HORRIFIC AND LONELY DEATH. WHO FOUND A REASON TO AGAIN LIVE IN A QUIRKLESS, FRIENDLESS BOY
Tumblr media
A BOY WHO ONLY HAD HIS MOTHER. WHO DESPERATELY NEEDED JUST ONE SINGLE PERSON TO BELIEVE IN HIM. WHO FOUND THAT PERSON IN THE HERO HE ADMIRED THE MOST. A HERO WHO SWORE ON HIS LIFE THAT HE'D RAISE IZUKU. THAT HE'D D I E FOR HIM. AND THEN, EVEN HARDER: THAT HE'D L I V E FOR HIM.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
LIKE THAT'S TOSHINORI'S PRIDE AND JOY. THE REASON HE IS S T I L L HERE. BUT ALSO: VICE VERSA. WHEN IZUKU THINKS BACK ON OFA HE THINKS BACK TO THE UNCONDITIONAL BELIEF AND SUPPORT. THE "YOU CAN BE A HERO." THE ONE THING THAT LONELY 14 YO BOY NEEDED MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
All Might IS the father figure in Izuku's life. He IS, definitively, the most important adult in Izuku's life RIGHT NEXT TO THE BOY'S MOTHER. HE IS TO IZUKU WHAT NANA WAS TO HIM. Life flashing before his eyes, faced with death, Izuku cries out to the two of them. His PARENTS.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I can't sleep, I can't eat. I will think about these two forever. Beyond the end. All Might the hero who was shown how to be just a man by being a father. Izuku the fan, who discovered his worth through the support of his hero, who came to love & raise him as a father does a son

End of September Update
Just as a heads up, I'll be closing my commissions after the first week of October (06/10/2024) just so I can focus on other projects! If you'd like to order a bug from me or get any of my other regular commissions now's a good time to do so!
Tumblr media
(Bugstyle | Regular Comms)
I made a really brief post on twitter about what I'm up to but since tumblr supports more text I'll just go into more depth on what projects I'm working on at the moment and general life updates!
I used to write blog posts on wordpress for school and it's just hilarious that I stopped doing that considering it feels like I was born to blog!
In general, I've been trying to crawl out of this very odd mood swing-y state I've been in for the past year. I've been semi-public about it but I graduated with a degree in animation same time last year and have sort of been recovering from the absolute burn out of that as well as watching the animation industry essentially collapse just as I left college.
I'm hoping to get into UI/UX design this coming October and try to piece what little control I have of my life back together. I don't really know what I'm doing to be honest and it feels like I'm just pawing in the dark with a lot of this stuff.
In lighter news I've been trying to get into something I've always wanted to for years which is comics! I'm not sure how much I can speak about it at the moment but I just got into an anthology which is very exciting.
I applied to shortbox last year but didn't get in :( but fingers crossed I'll get in next year! On a related note I've made a Cara profile which I'm using as a comics portfolio and archive.
Tumblr media
--
Those of you who've been following me for years know that I've had a webcomic project called, Happenstance (which I've restarted endlessly for about 10 years at this point). While I don't really have a concrete update of that for you guys I will say that the story is more or less fixed and whatever version of it I have now is most likely the version I'll proceed with in the future.
I did try to get the ball rolling with this at the start of the year with a pilot comic but it made me so miserable to work on it I abandoned it and started making an unrelated zine instead haha
Tumblr media
I do have plans on finishing this eventually and it'll be up on my itch.io and gumroad like everything else!
Speaking of the zine, I'd just like to thank everyone who purchased Cute Thing! I think for my first independent book project it did pretty well! It was incredibly embarrassing and nerve wrecking to promote it but I'm glad I did it.
Tumblr media
I don't know why there's an 18+ warning on this considering this zine is pretty tame.
I guess it also helped that that stupid ass diary comic i made blew up at the same time so I got to shill my wares in relation to it. Even though I think it gave me some kind of psychological damage but every time i gain minor internet fame i shrink back into my shell anyway, this is just the first time i really felt so much.. vitriol from randos lol.
It's just hilarious it overlapped with whatever guilty gear obsession I had at the time as well. Thank you to everyone who stuck around and uh.. sorry! I walk wherever the wind takes me and it's frequently towards my own characters.
But! Speaking of Guilty Gear, I am working on an Abacelsus zine I briefly talked about on twitter a couple months back. The title is sort of pending at the moment and while I did say it might be free as a digital download, I'm probably going to charge a couple of dollars because of how much effort I'm putting into this.
Tumblr media
On the plus side that means I'll probably be putting more effort into it! I'm aiming for 24 interior pages of stuff and hoping to release a digital version of it by Halloween 2024!
I'm trying to work on more prints and stickers for conventions as well and I never posted about my convention escapades here all too much but you can check out this instagram post for what I had up the last time I boothed!
Tumblr media
That's kind of all for the stuff I'd like to get done within this year but other projects that I'd like to aim to get done by 2025 is a continuation of my Cute Thing zine that I'm aiming to collate by Valentines Day, hehe how romantic.
There's nothing terribly concrete for that at the moment but I do know I want it to have more pages than Cute Thing. It's called My Boy and yes it's named after another Car Seat Headrest song.
I've got a lot of irons in the fire and another iron is that I'm also planning a 4-panel comic series for my band characters that I've posted some pilots about before!
Tumblr media
Pretty messy planning but most of my long form stuff looks like this.
A 4-panel comic series is just less intimidating than a fully coloured webcomic series (Happenstance) that I know will be finished decades later. I've also seen a lot of webcomic artists I've beloved just.. abandon their years long project and it's kind of scary to me that will definitely happen to me!!!
--
The long and short of it is that I've got a lot of projects and a majority of it is not making me any money. I'm extremely lucky to be surrounded by people that support my work but it gets hard to just do all of this by yourself with no guarantee that it'll go anywhere.
Patreon's a beast I've tried to tackle but it's kind of an ass of a website to use so I'll probably try to use ko-fi a bit more. I've kind of never really liked the subscription model and really do prefer to launch curated PDFs of my work every few months, but again I'm really just clawing at the dark and grasping at anything I can.
Let's wrap up this long post by mentioning that I might want to give streaming a shot! I used to stream a little when I was a teenager but I'd like to give it another go!
I don't think I'm going to have a dedicated persona or vtuber avatar but a small little png-tuber would be frankly hilarious. Maybe something casual to start of with, it gets pretty lonely spending everyday working on images alone.
--
Thank you for reading! It's an extremely long post to all but say that I'm scared but working on projects still! If you'd like to support me, here's my ko-fi page and while I'm working on getting more stuff on there here's my itchi.io & gumroad as well.
As I mentioned before I'm closing my commissions on the 6th of October to work on my Abacelsus zine so if you'd like to get a bug or any of my regular style commissions now's a good time to do so!
(Bugstyle | Regular Comms)
I'm hoping to make more update posts like these in the future and not psyche myself out every time because they're really good for me to collect my incredibly jumbled thoughts. Thanks again to everyone who's followed, supported or even just looked at my stuff it really means the world.
If you have any questions or just generally want to talk to me about my characters, my DMs and askbox is always open! Any professional enquires can be shot towards me email as well: [email protected]
XOXO, Stay weird!
-Eliot :)

Tumblr media
So, what have I been up to...? Since I was in Tumblr's spam-bot prison for more than 5 months, I thought I would create a little ICYMI post. (That's "In-Case-You-Missed-It" for the old folks like myself that have to look up all these new acronyms.) Basically, I'm gonna highlight/link to some of the posts I made this year, and you can check them out if you like. :) I didn't want to necessarily do a bunch of reblogs of my own content and clog up the system or something...
Tumblr media
I finished posting up my 100's of edited screenshots from Advent Children Complete! You can view the archive of 53 different posts, separated by character, here. It also includes a fun side post about the Mysterious Case of Sephiroth's Missing Straps. :3
Tumblr media
I confess, I haven't made too many wallpapers this year. But it's September now, and I have a thought rolling around in my head. We'll see. The archive of wallpapers is here.
Tumblr media
Speaking of, so many cool wallpapers came out for Ever Crisis, and I've posted them all! Find them here, at the bottom of this archive post. I swear I'll eventually beat TFS season 1, but...they sure made it difficult for people who don't purchase their packs.
Did you know that Tumblr is feeding your posts(including reblogs) to theird party AI? Well, they are, and you can set it to be prevented in your settings. I talked about it here.
Tumblr media
Rebirth coming out was the biggest thing this year, and I made my first manipulation for it back in March! You can see the post here, as well as a simple tutorial for it using GIMP(GNU Image Manipulation Program, free at gimp.org) here.
Tumblr media
I also made a second manipulation for Rebirth! If you want to see the additional dialogue that goes with it, that's here.
When I played the demo for Rebirth, I noticed that they had changed Sephiroth's eyes, and it reminded me of something...
Did you know that in Advent Children, Sephiroth's gloves are not as tight as in Remake and you can see his wrists? 😏Check it out! What? Of course this is important!
I took a look at Sephiroth and all his forms over the years. Then I did the same for Cloud.
My AO3 sefikura work In Death was finished on April 26th, and came with a special manipulation. That was also the first story where I was accused of writing non-con, when it obviously wasn't, so that was fun. If you need to hydrate, you can go drink that tea in the comments of, I think, chapter 16 and after. Several people have asked about a sequel, and I do have eventual plans. Hang in there.
Tumblr media
I made my first(of many) Rebirth memes, which also came with a blank template.
A peek under Sephiroth's jacket, courtesy of Rebirth. 😏Yes, this is important, obviously.
Another Rebirth meme, featuring Sephiroth being badass.
I put my design for Lucrecia's locket onto my edited EC Sephiroth artwork! This one actually got a lot of notes thanks to reblogging. 💕I also put the locket on Sephiroth's EC in-game model.
I wrote a long one-shot as a thank you for 400+ followers! It's based on my most popular sefikura manipulation of all time—a very indulgent work, and my first time writing for Rebirth. Thanks, guys!
Another meme, haha...oops, and another one. Damn, another one? AND a Sephiroth/Cloud arms-crossed companion meme set?
I did another Rebirth manipulation, this time of the famous sefikura hug scene. I added a second part to it here. AND a third part to it here! This set has quickly become one of my favorites. I also gave it some Japanese dialogue+translation here.
I did a little PSA because I've seen a lot of awfully suspicious digital paintings lately...
I made an account on Twitter/X, just in case they never fixed my blog, so if you're over there, follow me @ perfectlysane77 and say hi. :)
The FF7 crew have super hearing, confirmed??
Do you play Ever Crisis and want to join a sefikura guild? Check here. All skill levels are welcome, and you don't have to talk to anyone if you don't want to.
My first ever edited Rebirth video: "Fill your hollow heart...with me-ow."
And now I've been released from Tumblr spam-bot prison, so I'm sure you've seen even more silly memes from me. So what now? I hope to release the rewrite of Stranger Inside very soon, maybe by the end of the month if possible? The sequel will follow, for real this time. At that point, we'll be back to voting, so you guys will be able to choose what comes after that. I'm really focused on writing now, which is probably why I'm mostly making memes and silly things. Still, if it makes you laugh, I'm happy. 🥰
If you read this to the end, you're amazing.💕

✨Authors✨
One day before your Final Check-In Begins!
We're really excited to see all the hard work you've been doing these past months! However, before we begin with that, we'd like to make a couple of clarifications regarding posting:
Your work must be posted in full on AO3 on the Obikin Big Bang 2024 Collection by the end of your posting day (We're still working on the schedule, so, if more than one team posts on the same day, you will be assigned time slots to publish your works). Do not use Tumblr for posting your full story. Before posting, share the link to your work with your artist so they can have it ready on their own post. (If you don't know how to post on a collection on AO3, please contact a moderator or check out or Tumblr page for Posting)
You are allowed to make small changes and edits to your story after you've send your work for final check-in. Just please remember that no major plot points should be changed and do not add a key tag or Archive Content Warning unless absolute necessary, and, if you do so, please contact a Moderator so the Masterpost we'll be revealing on your posting day can reflect the changes.
Before your work goes public, please contact the Moderators to confirm with us your Masterpost Information (which we will ask you during final check-in). Only one person on the team needs to contact the Moderators, but the Masterpost must include the following information:
Title: Author: [Name/Nickname] [main username] | [other usernames if desired] Artist: [Name/Nickname] [main username] | [other usernames if desired] (If Used) Beta/Cheer Reader: [Name/Nickname] [main username] | [other usernames if desired] Word Count: Rating: Content and Archive Warnings: Pairing(s): Key Tags: Summary: [Link to Fic] [Link to Art]
If, for whatever issue, we're unable to get in touch with you, your work won’t be revealed in the collection. Please get back to us as soon as you have a few minutes
The works won't be revealed in the collection without approval from a Moderator, so, when you're ready to post, please contact one of the Moderators (or both through Tumblr/Twitter DM) with the links to both art and fic ready to go.
We (the Moderators) will be available to help you out with any problem you may encounter throughout these two months of posting, from helping you how to post your work in the collection, to any unforeseen event that may cross your path and hinder your ability to post on your posting date. There may be days where only one Moderator will be available, but we won't leave you to fend for yourself, so don’t hesitate to send us a message or an ask on tumblr if you find yourself struggling during your posting day

Fic Masterpost
I figured it's about time I did this. I mean they're all on AO3, but I figured having a Tumblr masterpost might put things in perspective as regards how much I've actually written lmao. Here we go.
Disclaimer: I mean, my writing is pretty mediocre, but I honestly find that the fandom space had to be filled out somewhat, so I started writing fic.
EarthMix
This is the pairing I've begun writing fic for again, so I have the most fics for EM.
Now unlocked. I don't think Joong is looking around for fic anymore, and certainly not on Tumblr. There are tons of unlocked fic in the tag, too, so there 'ya go!
The Stars, Our Witness 'Verse
The universe that started it all, partly as a way to archive EM activity before I became a fan, and partly as a way to stave off my delulu.
The Stars, Our Witness
Rating: E/NC17 Chapters: 16 (finished) Summary: They’re scared to cross boundaries. What happens when the lines blur? Tags: slow burn, friends to lovers, FWB, "canon rewrite" (in the sense of IRL being "canon" Warnings: divorce era. 'Nuff said.
2. supernova
Rating: E/NC17 Chapters: One-shot Summary: the same versions of 🌏 and 🪐 as in TSOW, but basically D/s pwp. Tags: pre-negotiated D/s; still a whole lot of longing.
3. of longing and loudness
Rating: E/NC17 Chapters: One-shot Summary: Oneshot set in the The Stars, Our Witness (TSOW) 'verse, and a reactionary fic post-LOL 2024. Tags: engaged!EarthMix
4. Beneath the Sunrise (in progress)
Rating: M (for now, but knowing me, this might go up) Chapters: 2 (so far, out of a slated 10) Summary: EarthMix get outed. They deal with the consequences. Tags: married!EarthMix, social media elements, bullying
General EarthMix fic
Mostly one-shots written as a reaction to a post, among other things.
laissez-faire
Rating: M Chapters: one-shot Summary: featuring Earth's obsession with mix's grey sofa Tags: engaged!EarthMix; domesticity
long distance
Rating: E/NC17 Chapters: one-shot Summary: of short reunions and busy schedules (lol honestly this has zero plot. I just missed them when they were in Japan for Happy Weekend, so I wrote a fic) Tags: PWP, quickie.
so here's the situation
Rating: E/NC17 Chapters: one-shot Summary: ~situationship~EarthMix (written after the Vivi interview had been released, and after they went on a museum simulation Van Gogh date literally the day after) Tags: situationship; we're dating but aren't together
househusbandry
Rating: G Chapters: one-shot Summary: Dreame gets EarthMix as endorsers for their vacuum. Why are they everyone's Favorite Married(TM) Couple? Tags: domesticity Note: This was written on my Notes app in like, 10 minutes, so the link is to my Twitter post to that fic.
in pari delicto (in progress; converting to prose)
OK so let me just write an author's note here. This is an unfinished Twitter social media AU because I would be writing about a topic I knew very, very well: law school. Now, I'm inclined to transform the fic to prose and transfer it to AO3 because I have no patience for the whole edit-edit concepts of socmed AUs and I honestly respect anyone who's done it. That said, I will likely continue this once I finish Beneath the Sunrise, or simultaneously as I write it.
PhuTian
Ah, ATOTS. Why do I love you so? Of course I'd write ATOTS fic.
re/live
Rating: E/NC17 Chapters: one-shot Summary: In which Tian celebrates his fifth year with his new heart in the best way. Tags: tian's birthday as an excuse to write smut, sloppy blowjobs, insecurity issues
old wives and the tales they tell
Rating: E/NC17 Chapters: one-shot Summary: Mayhaps Phupha has a kink. He refuses to validate the good Doctor Nam's speculation. Tags: domesticity kink, villager!tian, headcanon epilogue to ATOTS Note: Written in response to @earthmixsclowderofcats's Thai BL Kink Meme! Please show it some love and answer the prompts too please PLEASE!!
bad behavior
Rating: E/NC17 Chapters: one-shot Summary: Tian watches as Phupha grabs something from the nightstand – a pen? – and uncaps it. He holds Tian’s chin with one hand, and Tian feels the wet drag of the pen against his cheeks. “Chief, what are you—” “There,” Phupha says, “Whiskers.”
betwixt bewitched entanglements (in progress. might possibly discontinue.)
Rating: E/NC17 Chapters: 19 (out of a planned 15 lmao, I swear this was supposed to end earlier. Summary: Magic meets royalty meets a society walled off from the rest of the world. Tags: Royalty AU, Magic AU, political intrigue, slow burn Notes: Look. I got carried away writing this, and to be honest, the concept's flown so far away from me and the worldbuilding had been so solid in my head and I even know how this fic will end, but honestly? It's not getting engagement. That's not the sole reason for writing fic - of course not - but I'm not quite sure if it's worth my time and effort writing this out.
JimWen
10/31: So I just wrote this today woohoo!
the ebb and the flow
Rating: E Chapters: one-shot Summary: The first time after their last time. (Wen learns how to swim. Jim learns how to trust. A one-shot on the wandering thoughts of Wen and Jim as they navigate being in a relationship: the fear of stagnation, for Wen; and the fear of betrayal, for Jim.) Tags: introspective; plotless; PWP; alternate ending
OngsaSun
The first half of 23.5 excited me so elfin much that I'd write little tiny Ongsa character-explorations in between episodes. Here are the two I'd actually published.
gravity
Rating: G Chapters: one-shot Summary: Ongsa muses on the meadows of her mind. Tags: anxious!Ongsa
nightfall/daybreak
Rating: G Chapters: one-shot Summary: Ongsa is no stranger to the dark—that is, until she gives in to the light. Tags: depressed!Ongsa TW: "dark" as a metaphor for depression

Twitter (@SeiSubTanabata)
Tumblr (@SeiSubTanabataFest)
The AO3 collection is here:
Can I use a work I’ve already started?
Yes, if it fits the theme of the day you are posting on and the work has not been published yet.
Do I have to include all the prompts listed for the day into my work?
That isn’t necessary. The prompts are merely suggestions.
Can I include other prompts not included in prompts for the day?
Of course! Again, the prompts are merely suggestions. As long as your work follows at least one prompt for the day, you can submit it.
Do I have to participate every day?
No, that is not necessary.
What if my work incorporates prompts from 2 different days?
You can choose to post it on any of the 2 days, e.g. if you write a fic of characters being soulmates and stars, you can choose to post it on either day 1 or day 2.
Can I submit a late entry?
If you’re posting while the event is running (between 7 July and 13 July 2023), we are fine with that. However, if you can’t make that day, we will accept late entries. Keep in mind you will be posting outside the original posting period, but you can post whenever you can post afterwards.
Are there any content restrictions?
No, we do not believe in restricting problematic fictional content. As long as it’s properly tagged, we accept content of all ratings and themes.
Are there minimum requirements for works?
No. Do whatever you want as long as you create a work for the event. It can be any length or amount of effort you want to put in.
What does "FREE DAY - choose your own prompt" mean on Day 3?
You can choose a prompt that is not on our prompt list to use. This day has the most flexibility for the idea you want to create.

for an incredibly new f1 follower, what would you recommend for getting up to date with teams and racers and performances and history? apart from dts lol
oh that is a good question!!! i don't think i'm even the best person to answer this but honestly i think it all comes naturally if you pick a specific thing/team/person you're interested in and set out to learn more about that topic, because everything is so connected and with time you can fill in those knowledge gaps pretty quickly :') more under the cut:
dts is imo perfectly acceptable for learning names and faces for the first time and basically creating a vague outline of a given subject (i've said it's like using duolingo for learning a new language lol), so if you watch it and are like oh—i'm interested in charles or mercedes or learning more about technical regulations or whatever, then you can just dive deeper into that via wiki / youtube / podcasts + published media + old race archives and build up from there!
otherwise i think the main thing is just to start watching the actual races when the season gets underway, and in order to properly appreciate them then also read up on + watch videos about the technical/strategy side of the sport as well. back in the day i used to really like chain bear and i still always recommend it to anyone who asks! after that i would just seek out like... a community/server/place where other people are discussing news real-time; this could be meeting people on tumblr and twitter, but personally i'm subscribed to r/formula1 because it's the most active composite source of f1 news and Discourse. if you're reddit-averse i also just keep a big list on twitter with a bunch of random data accounts, official driver/team accounts, journalists, etc. that helps me keep up with the season in a tidy fashion—though honestly f1 journalism is so unserious that you don't really need to do that because most journos regurgitate the same three quotes in slightly different formats, so if you want to follow One Guy who won't disseminate bs info i'd recommend chris medland. or just general sport publications like autosport, motosport.com, the athletic if you're already subscribed to it (pretty lacking for f1 though since it's american lol), etc... some sites like the-race are very contentious though so i'd say just tread with caution!!! on the data side i personally enjoy fdatanalysis and f1telemetrydata (i've also used f1-tempo to do my own telemetry analysis but idk if that's useful). but again i'd highly recommend the subreddit since it keeps everything i just mentioned in one place anyway 😭
other media recs:
f1tv, if it's available in your area, has pretty much everything you need to follow f1 in its entirety. i hate to shill for paid media but i genuinely think it's good; you can watch every f1, f2, f3 session real-time, as well as go to the archives and revisit old races for each series from most seasons. it also has technical shows and a whole host of minidocs with bite-sized info that are probably less sensationalized than dts. if you don't have f1tv though then a lot of decent content is cross-posted to the f1 youtube so honestly the official channels are all pretty good for keeping up with the sport.
podcasts: if you're an auditory person then podcasts are a great way to deepdive into f1 history. personally i believe that 80% of men running f1 podcasts should be legally barred from ever having an opinion on motorsport, so i don't listen to that many, but i do enjoy the official f1 podcast beyond the grid (i listen to it on spotify but you can also find full transcripts on the f1 site) since, you know, they get official personnel on and i appreciate the wide range of personalities interviewed—from drivers to tps to various types of engineers. i've also heard good things about shift+f1, the race, and engine braking, but i haven't checked them out so i'd recommend just looking podcasts up yourself and seeing what vibes with you! though some podcasts are just like... I'll eat this because you're interviewing my guy but i would never watch/listen to you otherwise. (cough pit stop...)
books & autobiographies: again if you want to dive more into old f1, then you can always read a book!! i read jenson's autobiography life to the limit earlier and was very endeared, it's a super breezy but charming read ❤️ adrian newey's memoir is also a decent overview of a clearly brilliant and accomplished mind, i enjoyed the technical details and found his early career path especially interesting.
docus, movies, tv: there's also plenty of f1 media outside of f1tv, so you can always check those out; f1 movies aren't necessarily that accurate or frankly good but sometimes it's fun just for the Vibes and the love of the sport. for ex rush (2013) covers james hunt & niki lauda's rivalry, netflix has a schumacher (2021) doc, the brawn gp miniseries ft. jense came out last november, just things like that... some current individual drivers also have their own random miniseries so you can always seek those out, for ex i watched maxv's anatomy of a champion the other day just for the fun of it LOL.
i don't know whether any of this is helpful... but maybe other people can reply with their own recommendations!!!
also if you're interested in f2, f3, etc. then honestly just follow feeder series on whatever platform since they cover everything pretty well; feeder_series on twitter, r/f1feederseries, plus they do interview podcasts on youtube/spotify so i like watching those to keep up with young drivers. you can also watch chasing the dream for succinct f2 narratives; it used to only be on f1tv but it gets uploaded on youtube now so it's fairly accessible. lmk if you have any other questions or something specific you'd like more info about!!!

Tumblr media
That’s my comic announcement on Twitter (I refuse to call it X and no one can make me). The new chapter for the web series returns today, but it’s not like what we’re used to seeing with my comics in here. In here, I mostly archive stuff when they’re finished, but idk, maybe I wanna be active here too, this quiet place somehow has turned into my second (or third, if we count Patreon) home base.
From this point onwards, I think I’ll cross-post the comic on Twitter as well as on Tumblr. The system in here works differently but maybe it can be nice if you guys could experience the same feeling of “waiting for each updates” on Twitter too, that’s what I think tho, I’m not sure about what you guys think so:
I’ll leave this poll here for a day for you guys to decide ✌️
The soft-revised version will also be posted on Tapas but maybe like, tomorrow (August 4th) bc my schedule is packed today 💀 Will try my best to get back soon!

ENNEAD tags and finding fanworks and community
Tumblr media
If you're looking for fanworks and discussion for ENNEAD by Mojito, the boy's love manhwa about ancient Egyptian gods, here's a collection of things to try on different platforms:
ENNEAD (English) / Ennead (sometimes lowercasing part of it returns different things) / 엔네아드 (Korean) / 九柱神 (Chinese) / エネアド (Japanese) / Эннеада (Russian) / เอนเนด (Thai)
Horuseth (English), HorusxSeth, HorusSeth, HorusxSeth / 호루세트 (Korean) / ホルセト (Japanese) / 繋がらなくてもいいから俺のホルセトを見てくれ (Japanese) / ฮอรัสxเซธ (Thai)
Anuseth (English), Anubis/Seth, AnubisSeth, AnubisxSeth / 아누세트 (Korean) / アヌセト (Japanese) / 繋がらなくてもいいから俺のアヌセトを見てくれ (Japanese)
Osiseth (English), Osiris/Seth, OsirisSeth, OsirisxSeth / 오시세트 (Korean) / オシセト (Japanese) / 繋がらなくてもいいから俺のオシセトを見てくれ (Japanese)
FGSeth (English), FG/Seth, FGxSeth / 이국세트 (Korean = Exotic Set) / 髭セト (Japanese = mustache Set) / 繋がらなくてもいいから俺の髭セトを見てくれ (Japanese)
NephthysSeth (English), Nephthys/Seth, NephthysxSeth / ネフセト (Japanese)
The main ENNEAD tags (just the series name) are all the most populous for stuff, regardless of platform, particularly the English and Japanese. Horuseth is the next most populous.
As a caveat, exploring these tags and communities assumes you are either up to date with the latest episode in Korean or don't care about spoilers. Fans will sometimes spoiler block panels, meta, or fanworks for the latest episode, but usually nothing older than that, and communities are increasingly flooded with panels from the new episode on the day of the update as the community grows bigger. Your best bet if you don't want to be spoiled because you're reading a version that's behind the Korean (e.g., the English, which is usually multiple episodes behind) is to mute the number for the latest Korean episode while browsing. If you'd like to read the Korean, I made a carrd and a Tumblr post to help. If you'd like to share panel screengrabs/screencaps/captures from the comic on socials, please either stick to the previews shared by Witchcomics on their twitter, or 1-2 panels max, at Mojito's request.
In terms of socials, there are active fan communities basically everywhere!
At the moment, twitter is by far the most populous for anything ENNEAD, cross-language, including fanart, sharing fics in a number of languages (or at least links to them, if not also twitter fics), discussion, meta, and cosplay. Japanese fandom in particular is very active there and posts a lot about fandom events. If you'd like good twitters to follow:
RT ENNEAD is a good general trawler of all things ENNEAD. They do all ships and characters, as well as news, and usually update 2-3 times a day
Mojito is also on twitter and posts things sporadically
Witchcomics, one of the official Korean chapter posters, regularly promotes ENNEAD and raffles for merch. They also post previews for new episodes some hours before the episodes go up.
ENNEAD Japan is an official twitter run by b-boy, who manage the Japanese license for ENNEAD. They use the twitter to announce distribution (webcomic updates), publication (physical book updates), and merchandise.
Papyrus Studio/Studio Papyrus is a group of artists who create fanworks for ENNEAD, including phone calendars, and regularly run fandom events
HoruSeth365/365_with_HS, another fangoods collaboration
Following that, pixiv is a very populous site for fanworks, including fanfics (each tag will have its own fanfic hub, just go to the "novels" tab to see if anything is there). Pixiv is free to use, very accessible if you read English (or obviously Japanese since it's a Japanese art site) but easier to use if you have an account (though you don't have to pay for it, and you don't have to post anything). A lot of twitter artists have been mass dumping all their art on pixiv lately, or near-simultaneously publishing there, so if you hate twitter, pixiv is the place to go.
Archive Of Our Own has a fanfic archive for the community across many languages, with English and Mandarin Chinese dominating (followed by Spanish).
Instagram is the next most populous site for fanworks, mostly just fanart and cosplay, though it's pretty heavily censored, so people just mention their work is on twitter or somewhere else. Also be wary, IG is full of art reposters and folks sharing scanlations. They've also gotten rid of chronological search, so it's hard to browse anything but what came out years ago.
Tumblr also has a lovely archive of art if you want to browse.
If you'd like a Discord, many are locked or dead, but I have an adult Discord open if folks would like to join, where I try to do regular news and event updates on different platforms, as well as share links to fanworks and resources on different platforms, and there are lots of channels to talk about the story, the mythology, and fanworks.
(if the link is down, reply and/or DM me and I'll send you/post a new one!)
There is a growing but still somewhat small Blue Sky Social community.
There is also a very small pillowfort community.
There are some locked communities on Facebook, and some artists apparently do well there, though there is also a lot of art theft and scanlation there.
I would not recommend using sites like Pinterest, as it's almost entirely stolen and reposted art, without credit. A few artists actually post their art directly there, but by and large, it's the worst place for art theft. TikTok and YouTube are also full of art theft, scanlations, and vitriol.
However, there are a couple of YouTube accounts I'd recommend:
Mojito has a YouTube account, where Mojito rarely posts videos
Papyrus Studio/Studio Papyrus has made collaborative AMVs for the series
There is a subreddit, enneadmanhwa, which is very quiet.
There are fics on Wattpad, but most of them use stolen fanart, or include scanlations. There's a lot there if you want to check them out, just be wary, and please support actual artists, not reposters. There is also a collection of Thai fanfics on readawrite (but again be wary as a lot of them also use stolen fanart).
For information on characters, side comics, physical releases, locations, etc., the ENNEAD fanwiki on FANDOM exists, though it's still under heavy construction. I also have a tumblr post about side comics and extra art by Mojito.
I will update this post as I find more tags and sites.

Heyy
So I guess your blog is one of the blogs I can come to for this.
I loooove your rpfs that you post with Eric and Assad, but theres a part of me that feels kinda.... guilty? For reading rpf in the first place? And the cast is wonderful i just worry about what their reactions would be if they knew lol.
Idk. Maybe its just me!
����‍♀️
oh sure, you can always come to me for this tbh!!
so it's definitely not just you, this has been an rpf debate as old as time!! the way you gotta think of it is like... for the most part, we're seeing a public persona from the people involved. they present themselves a certain way on screen or in articles, interviews etc. and we as members of the public have no way of knowing what they're actually like in their home lives etc.
ofc there are people who do tinhatting to the extreme (think for example the spn rpfers who really were absolutely convinced that Jared and Jensen were together and there was a whole media coverup about it with their wives as beards and so on), but for the most part what we're engaging with is those specific public personas, you know? we're sort of spinning a "what if" story, and many people into rpf may prefer not to include the person's rl family, partners, friends because that tips it over that line in the sand, if that makes sense?
obviously that line is different for everyone, and that's up to you to decide where your comfort level starts and ends. like, we're all engaging in the shared fiction that the actors are gay or bi and seeing each other - some people take that a little further into personal traits or neurodiversity headcanons, which is where my own personal rpf line is crossed (like 'headcanoning' that the person is autistic or has adhd) and i don't engage with that sort of work.
but as for your final question about what they would think if they saw it, well, we just soldier on under the desperate hope that they will not see it!! this includes different methods for different people: some people archive lock their fic, some people don't tag with actor names on socmed, some don't even talk about the ship on socmed at all or prefer to be on anon when posting fic or online. again, that's up to your own personal comfort levels - for me, i'm not really bothered or expecting that the actors will see my work or my tumblr, ao3 etc. i mostly don't post them on twitter and if i did, i definitely would not use the hashtags or actor names because those can come up in searches very easily! (ofc my twitter dn atm is literally "hot girl old man rpf summer" but you know 😂)
i personally take comfort in the fact that Assad is fairly offline on socmed, and Eric seems to only post on insta! my only request would be that people don't share or mention my work on insta at all, or anyone else's tbh! that way lies panic and terror (believe me, i've had some scares in britcom rpf way back in 2010!! but Charlie Brooker was always a LOT more online savvy than either Eric or Assad, so)
so all that to say, don't feel guilty about it, anon! you're not physically reaching through the screen and forcing them to kiss, nor are you sending them people's fic or edits or deranged textposts. they'll never know!! and if they do, well we just lock our fics down, move to a discord server or something, or talk in dms only.

3 easy things to do so you don't get locked out of your AO3 account
(Prefacing this by saying that while I am chair of the Support committee and thus handle plenty of attempted account recovery situations, this is unofficial advice based on my own observations.)
OK, ideally you would never get locked out of your AO3 account. You would keep your email address there up to date so if you ever did forget your password, you can request a reset and get right back in. Or you would use a password manager and never forget your password again. But sometimes things happen - maybe you used an older email that you no longer have access to, or you can't remember which of 27 different fannish emails you used, and now you want to get back into your account but you can't. I get it, it can happen easily enough.
Here are 3 things you can do with relatively minimal effort that would potentially make it easier to recover your account if you do get inadvertently locked out.
Put some social media links in your AO3 Profile. Add your tumblr, your twitter, your dreamwidth, your fanfiction.net or wattpad, or whatever you feel comfortable putting there. If you don't want to put your "real" social media there (for whatever reason - stalkers, nosy family, don't like mixing fannish and real life, etc.) go MAKE a fannish account somewhere else purely for the purpose of linking it on AO3. Keep those accounts active (by which I mean, don't lose the email/password there too! Maybe even use a different email address than you use on AO3, so if your email access suddenly shuts down one day, you haven't lost both accounts.)
Post a work or two! Even if you are mainly using your account for reading/bookmarking/subscribing, write a drabble or a short fic and post it. You can disable comments, make it restricted to archive users only, etc. if you don't want to deal with potential feedback. You can even post it to an anon collection if you want to keep people from knowing it was you. It doesn't have to be a masterpiece, just a valid fanwork (so don't just post some random words or something).
In conjunction with #1 and 2, cross-post a work from another site. If you have older fanfics you never imported from Livejournal or Wattpad or fanfiction.net, import them now! If you have a little series of ficlets you wrote for a prompt on tumblr or twitter once, archive those. (Yes, even if you think they're bad or embarrassing. They still deserve to be archived! See above about making a work anon or restricting access if you prefer.) If you don't have pre-existing older works posted elsewhere, write a new story, post your story somewhere else (say, on dreamwidth or tumblr), and then a day or two later, archive it on AO3.
Even doing one or two of these things would make the chances of recovering your account higher, but doing all three would be ideal!

*taps mic* heyo friends
with the uncertainty around Twitter’s continued service reliability, I decided to start cross-posting (and polishing) my translations and other updates/posts from @soukatsu_ onto Tumblr for archival purposes and my own personal reference.
the official Jujutsu Kaisen fanbook is probably the largest ongoing project I worked on that was sidelined because of life and work reasons, but I’ve started back up on it recently by cleaning it up and adding in missing sections. so that will be my first post on here:
Jujutsu Kaisen official fanbook English translations
☀️ light mode
🌙 dark mode
general rules: downloading and copying the text is disabled because it’s still a WIP but you’re welcome to take screenshots to share. please link back to the document or at least my account because I do make changes (for accuracy or clarity, or I come up with a better way to word something, etc.)
hope things work out and we get to stay on Twitter but this will be a nice way to keep track of my work and translations as well so thanks to those who followed me here! ヽ(•̀ω•́ )ゝ✧

A Good Old Tale
Inspired by this post and this comic by @meowthefluffy
Notes: Mention of injuries, not graphic but it's there. Not proofread, we die like Twitter.
----------------
Archive of Our Own, known as AO3, is not very sociable. Everyone knows it, even those who stubbornly insist he should be.
But for AO3, working on the Archive and watching millions of writers save their works in the many shelves is more than enough. His work seems tedious to some, but he quite enjoys the repetition of it: tagging works, helping writers place their stories within the shelves and making sure the laws are followed. There’s never a shortage of people with interesting tales to entertain him.
Every now and then, though, one of the more social people walks in, usually with their followers. TikTok, the dancer, and her loud gaggle that needs to be constantly reminded to be silent and not inconvenience anyone. Instagram and her group, who enjoy painting themselves reading the books instead of actually reading. YouTube and their critics, always with a million annotations to take back home.
But two of them always catch AO3’s attention more than the others.
One is Twitter, the most beautiful man in the world—or so he is called. Twitter has light blue hair, fluffy and curly like those of angels, the same shade as the wings out of his back. He dresses in white and light blue, with gold adornments. He is beautiful, with his blue eyes and soft lips that stretch in a brilliant smile. His movements are gracious, as if he’s perpetually dancing. Moreover, he’s a debater of little words, preferring to talk in short and sharp phrases, voice enchanting and subjects too simple.
It is hard to not look at Twitter whenever he is present. If he, somehow, isn’t enough to grab one’s attention, the sheer number of his followers surely is. And their status, as Twitter is known to be followed by kings and nobles and rich merchants and entire guilds.
AO3 has never been much interested in Twitter, however. To him, the best part of the man was his lover, the second person that always catches AO3’s attention.
Tumblr is his name.
Tumblr is beautiful, of a peculiar beauty that not many seemed to appreciate. His hair is a deep, dark shade of blue, and it cascades down his back like tendrils of unspeakable horrors. His eyes, always accompanied by dark bags, are incapable of keeping only one shade of blue, and sometimes they flash something unusual like pink or white. He, too, is beautiful, with his crooked teeth and pointy nose and expressive eyes. He moves clumsily at times, even falling down, but there is no grace equal to his when telling one of his stories, or singing one of his songs, or dancing one of his tunes, or showing one of his paintings. Tumblr is a master of many words, from short one line ballads to the most ungodly litanies, voice like thunder you hear in the distance.
They are lovers.
How they came to be is a tale very few don’t know. Star-crossed lovers, different but so similar, the beautiful orator and the heretical storyteller. Many joked their relationship is the same as a Goddess of Beauty falling for a lowly Court Jester.
AO3 does not see it happen, but many of his customers come tell him.
“Tumblr,” they say in shaky voices, their pins and bands and cloaks and laces a grieving shade of blue, “got beaten almost to death by his King.”
AO3 makes a point to stay within the Archive territory at all times. This time, however, he simply cannot. Not when his friend, who often came with an encouraging smile to his followers and a tale on his tongue, could be dying this exact second. AO3 rushes out as fast as he can, the followers guiding him. They go past the woods and past oasis, only stopping when they reach the Desert of the Forgotten. A shiver goes down his spine, nothing good comes to those who stay at the Desert of the Forgotten.
The followers that are still around are much smaller in numbers, but their intensity as they watch him walk to the hut Tumblr rests in could have fooled him into thinking they were billions.
“Where are the others?”
“There are no others. They followed that man, they abandoned us,” one of the followers snarls, and many others grunt and growl in agreement.
AO3 would have answered, weren’t for the view in front of him.
Tumblr, on a makeshift bed, looking one deep breath away from dissolving into nothingness. His hair had been cut, and AO3 knows that the nice buzzcut was one of his followers’ idea. There’s bandages around his neck, and bandages hold together the bones of his hand, and bandages keep his legs in place. His eyes are covered too, unseen and unseeing.
AO3 cannot stomach the view for long, and the first breath he takes after leaving the stuffy hut is as liberating as it is crushing.
“They hurt his throat so he wouldn’t talk. They blinded him, deafened him, broke his fingers and legs… all so he would stop creating what they didn’t want to see,” the follower explains in a soft voice.
“... will he survive?” he asks. It comes out as a plea.
“He will,” another follower answers, eyes fierce as they approach, dressed in Tumblr blue from head to toe. “We will make sure of it. We will carry him so he can still circulate, he will hold his hands so he can still write. We will make our crafts brighter and brighter until he can see them, and we will sing our songs louder and louder until he can hear them. We will tell him stories every breathing moment, until he’s telling them to us instead.”
Now, AO3 knows of loyalty. The Archive was built on loyalty.
And yet, his breath is taken away by the unanimous agreement.
He returns home with hope.
Months go by. Not one word of Tumblr is heard, and the general populace starts believing he truly is dead. Except AO3 knows better. He sees the deep blues around, walking with pride, socializing with ease, and he knows. He knows Tumblr lives. He has no idea where, but he knows he lives, breathing words into elaborate narratives.
Twitter, meanwhile, grows more and more loved, and he basks on that love without shame. There’s not even a mention of his lover, the lover he left in fear of being dragged down from his golden throne.
Two years after his last visit, someone asks him if he wants to visit Tumblr. He recognizes them as the same follower who came forth with the oath. He agrees without much thought, eager to see the other man after so long.
Now, the follower fills him in as they travel, they all live in the ruins of an abandoned town. The ruler of that territory is kind to them, much kinder, despite still limiting much of their products. Tumblr had recovered fully, and while the scars still cling to him, he can now talk and laugh and see and sing and listen and dance and craft and create and be again. The follower does warn him that Tumblr has become odder. More twisted under the fun bits and stories. Unnerving even. But he is still Tumblr, and they will still follow him loyally.
They reach the village and AO3 is surprised when he sees people wearing a much lighter shade of blue together with the Tumblr blue.
Tumblr is waiting for him in front of a rundown but incredibly colorful house, painted on the colors of the sky. He sits on a small stool and rests his hands and chin on a cane. His hair has grown considerably, like tendrils of dreams beyond imagination, and his eyes shine different shades of Tumblr blue with the occasional white or pink or green or—
“Archive.”
“Tumblr.”
“I lived, bitch.”
AO3 laughs at his friend's irreverence. How could he ever dare doubt this man? How could he ever dare think Tumblr would not spit on Death’s face and walk back to life? He accepts the hand extended to him, and pulls the taller man into a hug. Tumblr smells of the sea, a good match for a man obsessed with crabs, and magic, the type of magic that exists even when magic doesn’t exist.
“I see there are people with his color amongst yours,” AO3 murmurs, bitterness in his heart.
“What right have I to take their home from them?” Tumblr answers, letting go so he can look at AO3’s eyes with that mysterious and forever kind gaze he was once known for. “What matters is not the color they wear, but the one they return to.”
“Are you not angry?”
“I am wrathful,” Tumblr smiles serenely, sending a shiver of fear down AO3’s spine. “If I could, I’d tear apart Heavens and Hell with my bare hands. I want to fistfight every god who dared ignore my prayers, and not to brag, but I am confident I would win.”
“I’m sure you would.”
And he believes it too.
“They cannot kill me in a way that matters,” the man squeezes him one last time before letting go. “Come, old friend, let us share some tales like the good times.”
AO3 spends the rest of the day listening to Tumblr spin his tales, one after the other. From the lovely to the twisted to the heartbreaking to the healing to the downright hilarious, there are no words that do not bow to Tumblr’s low lilt. It’s almost enough to ignore the terrible scars across his face that almost blinded him, or the gruesome scar that claimed his neck in the attempt to mute him forever. Almost.
Life goes on, as it does.
Tumblr starts wandering again, with his followers now more protective than ever, ready to fight whoever they think is a threat to their leader. Tumblr smiles his crooked smile, and laughs his breathy laugh, unbothered by having to share space with the lover who abandoned him long ago. Twitter doesn’t seem to notice the presence of his past lover, too occupied playing nice with the rich and pretending kindness to the poor.
Two occupied bathing in his greed.
AO3 sees it happen, it is hard to ignore.
The man who bought Twitter on a whim, descending from his golden carriage so his hands can taint Twitter’s skin with even greater greed. The king himself, the one Twitter bowed to, had sold him for an unbelievable quantity of money. Sold him like a sack of potatoes or a cow or a slave. Twitter screams and begs and kicks, but who dares go against the richest man in the world and the king’s decree?
They all look away as Twitter shrieks their names, and the blue on the clothes of his followers start disappearing under coats and inside bags. There’s a constant murmur as no one steps up, but all hope someone will.
“Tumblr!”
Silence eats away all the noise in the plaza.
“Tumblr, my love!” Twitter calls, tears running down his cheeks pitifully. “Please, save me! Please! We can be together again! My love!”
Tumblr, who had been rhapsodizing about a man named Goncharov, turns to give Twitter an unreadable look. His hair, tendrils of imagination beyond existence, cascades over his back and shoulders. His eyes shift through a few different shades of Tumblr blue. He tilts his head like a curious cat.
Then he smiles, showing off his crooked teeth.
“Worry not, beloved, for from this day on, you’ll get all the attention and riches you once desired,” he says. “And your story will be told all around the world, for generations to come. Me and mine, we shall make sure of that. We do love a good old tale.”

Official Dreamworks Digital SPOP Releases
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I put a bunch of these in other posts I've posted before or things I queued up to post later when i was archiving everything form the Twitter account but since we were talking about this I might as well collect them all in one post...
The She-Ra Page on the Dreamworks activity center links to many (some of the links are broken) of the official digital merch they made.
There are Zoom backgrounds, watch along bingo cards, recipies, and some printable paper craft things like the mini-figs from Roll With It, the She-Ra Sword, and the valentines (which also include a papercraft model of Bow's arrow).
The She-Ra virtual reality room which is kinda boring but props to them for trying, I guess.
For use with VR set ups, obvs, but you can view it in a browser as well.
Want something really random? Scholastic had a math handout they did as part of their newsletter for schools featuring Marcus Scribner as Bow. Brand synergy is a mysterious thing.
Tumblr media
The text version is here if you prefer to read
Lastly, there was a handout on how to read First Ones language also done by Scholastic to cross promote the books...
There was also a paper hand out they had at the Scholastic booth at cons and I actually own that but I don't have time to find / scan it at the moment.
Tumblr media
There was an official She-Ra Instagram filter (beloved of my children) which is alas no more but you can see their IG story about it here (assuming that link works?)
And, of course, there is the sticker app which is still available in an app store near you and I uploaded most of the stickers from it to Tumblr a while ago as well.
Lastly, a lot more of the printable crafts they did can be found on @dreamworksshera which is the official tumblr of the show. There's a pattern to make Bow's shirt, Spinnerella themed pinwheels, a Sea Hawk flag, Netossa net and Mermista smoothie that I remember off the top of my head. Unfortunately, whoever ran that account did not understand tagging at all so they are very hard to find but such is life!
cc-ing @n7punk and @clarenecessities just since this conversation is all over the place and confusing as hell

Heyyy! I follow you on Twitter and I'm very new to Tumblr 💀 I'm so incredibly glad I found your page tho, I followed you instantly. If possible, could you share some of your fellow eruri Artists and writers on here whom I can follow? I'm still learning and therefore having a little trouble finding them. Just want a curated timeline and would appreciate absolutely anyyy help you can provide 💜
Hello and welcome to the hellsite Anon! I was just thinking that it might be useful to post something for Eruris fleeing the shitshow that is twitter.  
So the easiest way to find active Eruri blogs to follow is to look at my blog and to follow the people I’m reblogging. You can do that by hovering over the name of the blog and clicking follow.  You can also choose whether or not to get alerts from blogs you follow. I would open up my own list of the blogs I follow, but tbh my own timeline is a mess.  I’ve been here so long that a lot of the blogs I follow are defunct, or are no longer active in the fandom.  
One nice feature of tumblr is that most blogs have an archive, like this https://lostcauses-noregrets.tumblr.com/archive, which will give you a quick overview of the content they post.  Not sure whether a blog is regularly posting content you’re interested in?  Look at the archive.  It's also a good way to see if the blog is still active. We lost a lot of amazing content during the tumblr purge but there's still a wealth of amazing Eruri content going right back to 2014 in old blog archives.
I have a tags page on my blog here https://lostcauses-noregrets.tumblr.com/tags, which links to lots of Eruri artists, but it’s very out of date.  Many of the artists linked here are no longer active (though their archives are *chef’s kiss*) and I haven’t got round to adding many of the more recent artists who are active. It’s still worth taking a look at though. 
Another way to find blogs is to follow the tags.  On your tumblr dash you’ll see Following (blogs you follow), For you (shit tumblr recommends) and Your tags (posts tagged with any tags you choose to follow).  I follow #eruri #erwin smith and #levi ackerman.  Be warned though, you’ll get all kinds of shit in the tags, including spam, pornbots and stuff you may not be interested in.  Reader fic is hugely popular on tumblr for example.  I have nothing against it, but it’s really not my thing, so I just ignore it. 
Look out for blogs that re-post other people’s art without permission.  This used to be a cardinal sin both here and on twitter but people seem to be ignoring that basic rule more and more often. I tend to block blogs that repost without permission.  Luckily there are still few excellent blogs that cross post gorgeous Eruri art with permission from the artists.  @story-kat is one of the best. 
Fic and meta isn’t as widespread on tumblr as it used to be in the heyday of the manga, however I can highly recommend following @tsuki-no-ura who is one of the most active and conscientious translators in the fandom.  It’s worth following @momtaku too, they’re not currently active, but their blog is the fount of all canon knowledge.  Several of the ship weeks have active tumblr blogs too including @eruriweek
I hope that helps Anon, if you’re looking for anything in particular, just ask!
