[carlyraejepsans]

for real WHERE does the idea that [utdr humans] are nongendered so that "you can project on them" come from. their literal character arcs are about NOT being a blank slate to be filled in by the audience

i think i understand the assumption on some level for undertale, because there is a very intentional effort to make you identify with the "player character" in order to make your choices feel like your own (the beating heart of undertale's metanarrative lies in giving you an alternative path to violence against its enemies after all, and whether you're still willing to persue it for your own selfish reasons. YOUR agency is crucial).

of course, the cardinal plot twist of the main ending sweeps the rug from under your feet on that in every way, and frisk's individuality becomes, in turn, a tool to further UT's OTHER main theme: completionism as a form of diegetic violence within the story. replaying the game would steal frisk's life and happy ending from them for our own perverse sentimentality, emotionally forcing our hand away from the reset button.

i think their neutrality absolutely aids in that immersion. but also, there's this weird attitude by (mostly) cis fans where it being functional within the story makes it... somehow "editable" and "up to the player" as well? which is gross and shows their ass on how they approach gender neutrality in general lol.

but also like. there's plenty of neutral, non PCharacters in undertale and deltarune. even when undertale was just an earthbound fangame and the player immersion metanarrative was completely absent, toby still described frisk as a "young, androgynous person". sometimes characters are just neutral by design. it's not that hard to understand lol.

anyone who makes this argument for kris deltarune is braindead. nothing else to say about it.

They really moved Eironn and Lorsan closer together in this scene, huh. 👀

When it used to be just this:

Thank you to whoever decided that this was a necessary update. 😂💕

Oh, and Lorsan's name in the Japanese version is "Kuin" (クイン). Idk if it's supposed to be like "Quinn" (which means something like "wise") or "Queen" — which I don't mind either way bc they both suit him. ♡ (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

Would you get rid of a Klondike bar (no eating it to get rid of it and no eating it after you got rid of it) for a Klondike bar?

Thank you so much for the information and transparency about the bang shitshow. I was considering signing up for it, but after seeing what's happened I'm very glad I didn't.

You're very welcome!! I'm glad that it helped :)

Sometimes I genuinely forget my age. For two years I accidentally kept telling people I was 23 and now that I am actually 23 I keep slipping up and thinking I'm 26. You would think this has to do with me either feeling old or like I should be more mature but no I'm pretty sure my ADHD ass just is so bad at the concept of time that I forget that I forget that nope, I do not actually exist 3 years in the future.

toxic mattheo headcanons??

ughhh I'm so screwed because the moment a pretty brown eyed boy takes interest in me I'm just immediately a goner even if they are toxic like what am I supposed to do 😭 these are all over the place but welp ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

He's the type of man that acts so fucking polite in front of parents during a family dinner when in reality he's fingering you under the table...oh and he'd sooo play it off- acting all smiley n innocent while your ur trying hard not to humiliate yourself infront of your family :((

Your friends tell you how unhealthy his obsession with you is and you wave it off being like "Guys you don't get it he loves meee!!" While giggling and kicking your feet, ur friends roll their eyes and give it up because you are way too far gone to save. Your man gets rid of them soon after that conversation (;

Mattheo loves how oblivious you are in social situations because he can use it to his advantage. That guy who was flirting with you yesterday was beat up? "Oh, I wonder who did that. I hope he gets better." You sigh and pout, and all Mattheo can do is nod along, completely agreeing with your statement, while he hides his bruised knuckles. 

Oh my god

And he'd always win arguments either by manipulating you or simply cutting off the argument with his insistence on 'not wanting to argue with you' when in reality he just can't handle you being in the right.

He wants you to completely depend on him like girl..say goodbye to your friends because the only people he's going to let you hang out with are his friends n' of course u don't mind!!! It's not like you even realize the way he's slowly picking off your friends by threatening them.

He just loves you 😔✊

Preheating has warped every single one of my non-stick pans. I thought you were supposed to get pans ripping hot before cooking, but ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ Apparently there is a such thing as too much heat. Is it the induction stove? Cheap pans? Am I just bad at this?

Warping is caused by severe temp fluctuations, where one part of the pan is VERY HOT and the other is VERY COLD. The metal bends & you end up with a warped pan/pot.

This can also be caused by a cheap pan giving way to stress, but is most often from EITHER adding cold ingredients onto one side of a very hot pan, OR taking a hot pan and dumping cold water onto it to rinse it.

It can also happen if you use a teeny tiny stovetop burner on a big pan. The center gets hot but the outer edge stays cold.

There are guides online that involve heating it up and beating it with a hammer, but I've never tried it myself. (yet <_< )

Mace leaned forward and peered at the different medias being shown, swinging his legs idly as he thought about each of them.

"Hmm... well- it's gotta be one where the 'mystery' ain't super easy ta figure out, ya'know? I like workin' it out myself. Oh- an' on that topic actually- or well- not really- but anyway! I talk to myself a bunch when I watch this kinda stuff- I mean I can try not to but- LOL. It won't do much. Just a head's up, I guess."

He nodded, rambling a little off topic as he spoke. You can't blame him though, he couldn't help it that he was the kind of person that just wants to get up and start shouting at the protagonist of a show for being dumb, or try deduce the plot of the film before it's even happened.

Whenever he and Yuuto are watching something in the same room, Yuuto takes to hitting him in the head with a pillow every time he starts speaking. It usually ends up with Mace snatching the pillow and bashing the hell out of him back. Crimson is always much more entertained by them than the film, so he guessed there was that.

- Mace (🔌)

For the second afternoon in a row that week, Mace found himself walking down the same corridor of the Diasomnia dorms. He would have come by sooner, having finished downloading all of the stuff onto the drive way earlier, but he got a bit distracted doing... a few different things. He hoped Casimir didn't mind the wait too much. It would be a shame if he did.

Approaching Casimir's door, he knocked the same way he did last time, before stepping back.

"Yello~! Guess who it is~!"

He called out, combing his fingers through his hair to neaten it up a bit while he waited for the door to open. Not that he was trying to make it look extra neat. But more... trying to make it seem like he didn't just crawl out of bed a few hours ago, just to only make it in time to attend the last class of the day. Because he definitely didn't. Definitely.

- Mace (🔌) [ @nrc-asteryn-crew ]

( ooc// i cannot the way he starts monologuing in his thoughts then gets more sentimental STOPP I CANT DO THIS I LOVE HIM SM ACTUALLY if he was in game i WOULD whale /pos silly guy if anything ur inability to control ur UM is just making mace more interested in you (i actually love that it does that tho its so silly) anyway I FINALLY MADE THE GOSH DARN BLOG . well sorta i more so just had to revamp the pinned post that was already there but YEA!!! :D )

*the knocking on the door startled Casimir from his thoughts that, today, mainly consisted of some nonsense on a homework page. He relaxed though, at the recognition of the knocking pattern and voice and stood up*

*He took a deep breath to compose himself and adopt his typical, grandiose persona before opening the door*

Greetings to you, Vassal Mace! It is a pleasure to see that you have decided to return to my lair on this day.

I assume that your being here means you have successfully completed your quest?

*Casimir did his best to contain his excitement, tapping his fingers together in what, to most appearances, could be read as excitement or a gesture of evil plotting - the perfect gesture for one of his status, now that he thought about it.*

(✨HELL YEAH! banger that u have a blog now! I think I'm already following ur acct from my main but yaur!!! Also thank u SM that means. A lot actually bc I'm just here like "yeah this silly guy who exists in my brain is gonna get thrown from a window" and I really appreciate when other ppl like my silly guys dhhdsjdj. I'm so excited to be able to learn more Abt ur guys now tho too whehehehe >:3¢. Probably should've done this from the tags. Anyways.)

Ask box response

This post is a follow up to the previous reblog post to update what's going between me and Cagney alongside other associates in the group that I have departed from a while back.

During the afternoon I just received a response from one of the group members yesterday which I will respectfully keep anonymous but I think only a handful of people will know who it is regardless of the edited screenshot when reading further on this post.

We'll be taking this interaction step by step to construct some criticisms, make statements and opinions of the overall message.

Here's the first half of the message sent to my inbox:

One thing to clarify is that I'm not being dense when I know that the group and you included, tend to nitpick at a lot of things. I was aware prior to what were the few reasons for being cut off before the announcement of my departure given the tension between the group conversations in the private community.

Now that's not to say that there wasn't a good point made for kicking me out!

Especially given the number 1 point made on your list.

1. I won't lie that giving away crucial details and conversations within screenshots was something I did totally out of left field. I knew that it was against the community's group protocol which I did get chewed out for showing the screenshots to Zombify.

But-

If I had not gone back and forth between two groups then I wouldn't have been given crucial details from Blurry's end about him doing a Cease and Desist order onto the Moboxcritique/TheGoldFiles Blog along with Kevonica being the primary suspect of quote on quote "Harassment" or "Defamation". Meaning that if Blurry had sent you a Cease and Desist letter, you'd be given a warning and restricted from posting on the blog that mentions him which would've led to possibly going to court/legal actions if you had gone any further with the drama to criticize him more. Then there's a possibility that the blog as a whole would've been taken down prior to its deactivation if Blurry did go to court with Kevonica and the blog given how much he'd get the judge and the jury to side with him regardless of what was put against him on the Moboxcritique blog's documents, posts or archives to justify your actions from calling him out.

So, yes I fucked up in leaking the group's conversation but at a cost of knowing about the Cease and Desist order ahead of time until a mutual agreement was made to keep the Blurry drama under the rug.

Then of course, I shared this post revealing a recorded conversation between Anonymous123maybe/Tammy Tuna and Miles to show that Miles never changed. This was another thing I got chewed out for publicly sharing but it was from Kevonica this time.

But did Anonymous123maybe/Tammy Tuna mind?

No

Plus, Miles only proved our suspicions correct.

2. I don't know why you need to rub it in that you and the group you're associated with have been victims of abuse when I've been through a mentally abusive relationship prior. It's not a competition or comparison to be made and I can understand that we can all take a stand in getting ourselves out of abuse and have it be known or unknown. Either way, if this is a complaint for being in defense for Piaojun's artwork of William x Renata in our chats together or on my "Parting Ways" post then I don't wanna hear it but even if it's not. Then it's likely about my other post discussing the themes of Mobox87's art work.

So, let me put it out there as simple as I can get. On my draft script post "Understanding", we talked about domestic abuse being an often taboo theme projected in Mobox87's stories and visual illustrations. The key important details mentioned are what likely inspired her and how it's become a progressive cycle that it feels romanticized but most importantly that it's a sensitive topic that can still work with storytelling.

We can all agree that Mobox87 always makes the abuser superior in a majority of her stories and I get that in this harsh reality that it is true the victims tend to lose or not survive from domestic abuse but when it's a constant visual being shown with each different story variation told. It gets bothersome to the viewer and you question the morality of the person behind the story. So, it's completely understandable to be critical about it. Now for the theme of that to work in a story, you wanna project it in a way where it can appeal to the audience. Such as the victim surviving or getting out of the situation. Other cases would be showing the victim getting some moral support through the trauma of abuse.

I know that I mentioned the episode "Mad Love" from the 1997 "The New Batman Adventures" series, a follow show to "Batman The Animated Series" from 1992. I go over how Harley Quinn's relationship with The Joker and how it projects the abusive relationship very well to the audience as a way to educate the consequences of what happens between the abuser and the victim or a toxic relationship. Heck we even see in the Harley Quinn show that she practically leaves Joker after realizing she was only being used. Another good example would be in the show Steven Universe on the episode "Alone at Sea". Where Lapis tells Jasper that she doesn't want to be a part of their unhealthy relationship anymore which if you're aware of them being fused together under the ocean for a long time from watching previous episodes you'll get why she doesn't wanna go back and that projected the importance of asserting boundaries and leaving when someone is abusive towards you.

Anyways, let me rewind things back to "Romanticized abuse with your strange takes upon things". I wanna make this clear I DON'T romanticize abuse and you know DAMN well that I don't when I've made it clear on a few occasions when you shit talk about Piaojun behind their back that they have no intentions of wanting to project the characters William and Renata the way Mobox87 has done. Even if they did have, it was illustrations projected to tell it's story purposes between the characters crucial fate of relationships departing. Like I get the idea you don't like the ship and the same can be said with a bunch of other people in or outside your group but don't ever drag your battles upon someone else who doesn't wanna associate with the drama. Let alone DON'T BITCH about what someone is doing between two characters who they clearly want to change from their original story for the better. You don't dictate what others can or cannot do in art especially if that person is doing their own thing. If you can't agree with that then FUCK OFF. I have my own morals and mutual understanding that are common sense. I'm not going to judge someone and make publicity about it unless necessary. You should know better. YOU DO NOT SPEAK FOR THE ARTIST'S VISIONS AND DECISIONS THEY MAKE! Yes you can be critical but there's a limit and you are pushing it to your own judgements that are opinionative. So, get over it. No one does that to your own work and if people have then your just projecting that negativity onto others.

3. So, I wanna mention that YES I did force Cagney to reblog my post because I simply wanted a favor and if you or anyone had read the post "Parting Ways" you'd understand how frustrating it was to get them to post it. Like honestly you of all people should know that I've been supporting Cagney and Patty when I got involved in this drama when you reached out.

I literally reblogged posts when it came to talking about Mobox87, Nicole, Mobox87's brother SonicCrash, The FON game's process of dealing with its supposed virus issues, Mobox87's sales prices, Mobox87's harassment and especially topics about Miles! I shared heavy amounts of criticisms and gave out my opinion on things that Cagney would publicly post about while they gained more attention for it! So when I asked for the favor to help me with the situation about Arion the Kid/Blue's Journey that I was gonna go over with Red Radiant and others who were victims. I expected some help but instead I got the short end of the stick because-

Cagney didn't want to reblog my post or take part in it when it's about someone who is known in this Mobox87 community on the app "Amino" for sexually harassment minors who has continue to do so to this day on Discord!

Cagney and likely you along with the other associates would rather talk about petty SHIT involving Mobox87's comic series development or about Blurry's artwork than take on something far bigger and serious to discuss! I practically needed to force Cagney to reblog my post because I literally begged for it which resulted in Red Radiant and Andikai needing to back me up for wanting the Arion situation to be known!

Why should I have to be in a position where I'm like Oliver Twist begging for more food when it comes to a favor after I stick my FUCKEN neck out for you guys on drama topics!

Like-

How the fuck does Mobox87. A person we know who is controversial for a lot of things went out of her way to share a post about Arion?

https://www.tumblr.com/red-the-radiant-official/708998004953202688/hey-remember-that-guy-who-sent-you-those?source=share

Take note! She knew about this person long ago because I told her about them after she had a run in with them disturbing her Amino community back in 2019 when I used to moderate on her community!

Like yeah I get that it's one post she made in regards to the situation but you'd think that someone in Cagney's position. They would drag onto talk about this topic of Arion's manipulation and harassment like they do with other topics but-

No!

Instead they would rather talk about something petty and nitpick at the smallest issues because they were scared of being impersonated then went on hiatus after people misinterpreted their blog post about Piaojun. Just to only see that the rebranded blog "TheGoldFiles" now deactivated after months passing by.

Honestly, a lot would've benefited if they helped out more and kept pushing on talking about Arion as much as I did. Things would've been easier but instead I had to go out of my way to spread awareness of him following people on Tumblr in the Mobox87's fanbase when doing my document timeline.

https://www.tumblr.com/minerwarfare-suzuya/755834695937327104/just-confirm-with-you-all-that-i-have-police?source=share

Plus, I told Kevonica directly so that she would know.

You'd think at that point, Cagney would really need to touch up on the Arion topic by now but NO! Nothing said when brought to Kev's attention despite Cagney going on a hiatus.

I guess fuck awareness on a pedophile following people under our noses. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

4. Okay... Now you're just poking the bear at this point and I wouldn't be surprised if you or someone in the group was the one who sent this anonymous message onto the second blog awhile back.

This topic about aging up a character is known to be a mixed opinion or controversial to some people. So, I'm just going to say this.

Like if an artist (like myself) made fanart of a character aged up preferably for a new narrative or head canon story and it's deemed not okay.

Then this isn't okay.

Now you're probably going to say this-

"Oh but it's not the same because the creator made them underage, you can't age them up cause it's not canon!"

My brother in Christ! You are delusional cause the creators themselves might as well catch a heat over aging their own characters. Quit complaining about fanon artists or illustrators for making their own ideas on a character as adults in their fanfiction for their changes in character development.

This is an exact argument I had with Miles about the Vinsnake drawing last year!

https://www.tumblr.com/minerwarfare-suzuya/732636849810669568/miles-ownership-drama-timeline-part-5?source=share

But oh wait!-

That's not the issue!

Yeah, apparently you and the group were "uncomfy" with the Affinity remake's rewrite since the characters were "sexualized".

Yeah cause it's MY remake and I draw attractive Men and Women. Deal with it! I've been developing and pre-establishing the story for a long time with it's characters who are still undergoing redesigns as my surviving casts and designing characters with mature designs suitable for what I pictured best in FNAF Affinity that Mobox87 made a mess out of when it came to ages and over all looks.

Plus!

It's been pinned on my second blog that my remake is going to be meant for older teens and adults with WARNINGS before reading! So, I am taking precaution!

So, if you consider it strange without realizing I've planned things two steps ahead then maybe YOU'RE THE PROBLEM.

The second half of the inbox message:

5. ...

Okay! How FUCKEN dare you stoop that low! That is full on low blow! This part in particular is what has me really up my ego!

How dare you compare Red to Arion! Red is a victim of his harassment over the years that has gone by! Which had been ongoing still during this year in 2024 so far!

Comparing the person who I'm representing online and to police for not just himself but for others online that have been harassed, groomed, blackmailed, impersonated, manipulated, traumatized and mentally abused to a FUCKEN Pedophile! A pedophile that Cagney doesn't have the balls to callout or constantly post about throughout everything that has happened to Red, me and the likes of others online!

You wanna compare Red to Arion? Just because of a character Red has developed and been in talks with me about being added into my Affinity remake with his story restructured to fit in with my own interpretation when I'm directing and producing FNAF Affinity the way I want it? Fuck You!

Like legit Fuck You! You don't even know what we have been dealing with and what we have been documenting about Arion. Just for you to make that comparison.

Go kill yourself! I'm dead ass serious just take your blade off choice and cut your wrist vertically. Go tie a noose and hang yourself. Get run-over by a truck.

HOW DARE YOU COME TO MY INBOX AND MAKE THAT COMPARISON TO A VICTIM OF A PEDOPHILE OVER A CREATIVE DECISION THAT I AGREED TO ADD IN MY OWN WORK THAT YOU LISTED AS AN ISSUE ON YOUR TOP 5 SHIT LIST!

It's like what I've said to you years ago. You don't think before you speak and this really does show.

Anyways, Cagney is still active online even if you claim she's barely online since she went out of her way to respond to my last post and you still archived one of Mobox87's latest videos even if you also claim to be taking a break from archiving. So, there is activity going on behind the scenes.

Top it off, don't go off saying "Stop acting holier than thou" as if I'm being superior to you or anybody for that matter when you're clearly the one in that position.

Besides that I'm not taking down any posts. So Fuck off.

You may claim that now you see my true colors but really it's you who has shown your true colors that afternoon. Be glad that I've kept your username covered because I don't want anyone harassing you or anybody coming after you. If anyone is going to say anything to you during this feud, it's me only or Red.

I may have gone off too extreme with what I said but I DO NOT CARE and I Won't Forgive Myself For it but FUCK it. You put this on upon yourself. Woe is you if I name drop Cagney on a post, get over it. I'm not going to give y'all the satisfaction of going back and forth.

☆~Italy and Japan with a super affectionate s/o

wabatle nonsense:

uhh i was gonna do Germany too but then i gave up ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

ill also link the one of the allies (-Russia) here!

warnings: none~

☆~Italy

You two are absolutely perfect for each other, because he’s very affectionate and clingy, so good luck trying to get him off of you

He will cling onto you and not let go, while he absolutely smothers you in his (potentially overwhelming) affection

He will also proudly bask in your affection, sitting comfortably while you continuously shower him in kisses or just smother him entirely

He’ll start pouting (and possibly even cry) if you stop, even if it’s just for a little bit or to go do something

When you’re cooking, he’s either behind you with his face nuzzled into your neck or he’s right next to you cooking as well

Sleeping? Yeah, he’s the little spoon because he loves it when you kiss the back of his head

☆~Japan

He was surprised, at first

Definitely not a big fan of PDA, because he’ll get really embarrassed and feel incredibly embarrassed

I don’t think he minds that much, at home, though, because there’s no one there who could stare or judge you

He does like how affectionate you are, and he believes it shows how much you love him and how much you care for him

When it comes to sleeping, he doesn’t exactly mind how you lay, as long as you’re comfortable

If he’s cooking and you come up behind him and hug him, he’ll ask you if you need anything, but then he’ll let you stay and find a way to work around you

About that Crime Syndicate reference in WFA universe idea...

I think we can assume - this is all headcanon, after all - that Spyral didn't exist in this timeline.

Yeah, Helena is around, but Helena was a character long before Spyral turned up. She can be there without it.

The thing is, in New 52 universe, Spyral is a product of anti-meta paranoia. In New 52 universe, metas have only started entering the scene for five years.

The superhuman heroes and villains are a new thing, and understandably the governments are freaking out about it.

Hence, highly unethical experiments, hence Spyral.

In WFA universe, it's clear the metas have been around for a long while, the heroes have proven themselves, and they are appreciated.

Sure, there will still be some suspicion and some agencies keeping an eye on them, but unlikely that something on the scale of Spyral can happen. Especially since the heroes are more organized and involved, unlike the rookies of N52.

So... I'm gonna go with no Spyral in WFA.

As for the identity reveal, it can't really happen either. In WFA, the Batfamily is well known. If one of the Bats get unmasked, the others will also get discovered simply due to the connections between them.

Not like N52, where they are still half way urban legends.

And yes, this is me wanting to write an angst/hurt/comfort fic about the aftermath of Forever Evil without wanting to deal with Spyral :)

Fair interpretation! You made very good points, thanks for sharing.

Spyral I personally enjoy when I'm in the mood for angst, but it is something that just makes me think 'why would this even happen?' because everyone suddenly turned into assholes apparently. A villain hit them with a jackass toxin and Dick wasn't invited? Who knows ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ (not DC, that's for sure!)

Anyway, yes, it makes sense the way you explain it. Hope I get to read your fic if you ever write anything about it!
