Tumblr media
WARNING: BRIEF MENTIONS OF ED, S*ICIDE, S*XUAL AB*SE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND NOT TO READ THIS POST IF YOU'RE VERY SENSITIVE thank you
Tumblr media
Stelliums show us where our main trauma or wound lies:
Stellium in Aries/1st house - body image issues/body dysmorphia, hating ones face and wanting to change it at all cost, being so focused on ones trauma that it results in excessive independence
Stellium in Taurus/2nd house - self worth issues, hating ones voice and/or being made fun of for how ones voice sounds, excessive shopping due to fear of having nothing, having stash of cash hidden everywhere in the house due to being scared of getting robbed
Stellium in Gemini/3rd house - being too scared to speak to others, hating the way you express yourself, being an overachiever at school due to fear of being seen as "stupid", fear of being run over by a bicycle or a car
Stellium in Cancer/4rd house - family problems (divorced parents, one of the parents is out of the picture for whatever reason, family members dealing with addictions, family abuse), issues when it comes to comforting yourself in times of crisis, HEAVY abandonment issues
Stellium in Leo/5th house - had to grow up too fast instead of enjoying childhood, fear of not being "the perfect parent", fear of not making it in the industry (for those pursing creative careers or following their passions), issues regarding getting pregnant and delivering a child, fear of being burned by the sun or by fire
Stellium in Virog/6th house - fear of contacting an incurable disease, issues regarding eating disorders, trauma regarding messy spaces, which results in OCD

Stellium in Sagittarius/9th house - fear of not being able to experience everything one has always wanted, issues caused by not living to ones full potential, fear of travelling too far away, religious trauma
Stellium in Capricorn/10th house - fear of being forgotten and not standing out, issues regarding not looking & acting in a professional manner when needed, fear of not being promoted in ones career, the trauma is very visible to the public
Stellium in Aquarius/11th house - fear of not fitting in a crowd or a friend group, issues regarding being part of LGBTQ+ or a subculture often dismissed (POC, people with disabilities, orphanage kids, emos), trauma related to the country's government and (possible) implications in war, fear of dying in a natural disaster (earthquake, tsunami, volcano), fear of dying by electrocution or in an airplane crash

Tumblr media
Moon shows us how we process our trauma and wounds:
Moon in Aries/1st house : screams, throws things around (maybe also breaks a few things), if anyone reminds them of their wounds/traumas, they'd literally break that person's neck; they might recklessly drive, play with fire or drink excessively out of anger
Moon in Taurus/2nd house : resorts to retail therapy, cooks their favourite meals, gets some comfy pillow and blankets and watches their favourite show; they're slow to heal their wounds, but they manage to do so
Moon in Gemini/3rd house : overanalyzes what happened to the point that they've thought of every scenario possible, (if they have more than one wound/trauma) switches between wounds, is usually open about their wounds and traumas with siblings and acquaintances
Moon in Cancer/4th house : cries 24/7, acts distant with people who are not close to them and defensive with those who want to talk about their feelings; they tend to have very, very unhealthy coping mechanisms (aka they resort to self-harm)
Moon in Leo/5th house : transforms their pain & wounds into a form of art - whether it's through dancing, painting, singing, acting, photography, videography; sometimes they might not recognize how much their past affects them, especially around others, they boast about how "it wasn't that bad" even though they're clearly affected by what happened
Moon in Virgo/6th house : focuses on the details, what they could have done better and what they didn't, easily becomes anxious, cleaning the house becomes a form of therapy for them; in case of physical wounds, they document themselves very well (sometimes they are even able to heal themselves, since this Moon sign in Chiron persona chart has a sort of 6th sense about medicinal procedures)
Moon in Libra/7th house : their s/o knows every pain, wound and traumas they've ever experienced, analyzes the past in a logical manner and tries to find a healthy coping mechanism, without hurting anyone else in the process; listens to sad, romantic songs
Moon in Scorpio/8th house : if someone else is guilty for their wounds/traumas, they're going to plot revenge and execute their plan in a discreet manner; often jealous, they might pursue fwb connections to stop thinking about their pain; the ones who manage to deal with their past in a healthy manner become a completely different person in the process
Moon in Sagittarius/9th house : dealing with their wounds/traumas opens a new world for them, they end up adopting a new set of beliefs as a coping mechanism, travelling to another country to get some space from their surroundings helps them heal
Moon in Capricorn/10th house : replays the past over and over again, they numb their emotions, if asked about their wounds/traumas, they answer very stoic; they also tend to be more realistic and don't like to tell themselves lies or hear lies about their trauma
Moon in Aquarius/11th house : resorts to technology to cope with the pain, is usually open about their wounds and traumas with their friends or on social media, but not with family; they might try some unusual coping mechanisms
Moon in Pisces/12th house : they isolate themselves from everyone in order to cope with the pain, meditation and breathing techniques are their to-go methods of calming their anxiety down; if they don't manage to cope in a healthy way, they dissociate and go through a depersonalization process or an addiction takes over them (drinking, smoking, they overuse medication etc.)
Tumblr media
Jupiter shows us where we're blessed, but fail to see. The stronger the modality, the more obvious it is to other people.
♃ Jupiter in fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) and/or fixed houses (2nd house, 5th house, 8th house, 11th house) are extremely blessed and everyone is able to notice, but the native.
♃ Jupiter in cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) and/or cardinal houses (1st house, 4th house, 7th house, 11th house) are blessed, but only a specific category of people notice it.
♃ Jupiter in mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces) and/or mutable houses (3rd house, 6th house, 9th house, 12th house) are still blessed, but the effect is hardly noticeable to anyone.
Tumblr media
Those with:
Grand Trine/Kite/Yod (Finger of God)
Sun, Jupiter, North Node and ruler of the chart conjuncting MC and/or placed in 10th/11th house (minimum 2 placements)
Stellium in 10th house/11th house
-> have got amazing healing abilites and often end up pursuing careers where they help & heal society (usually as doctors, therapists, spiritual advisors, social workers, advocates who actually make a difference, etc.) They usually become famous for their healing gifts.
Tumblr media
Other small considerations:
Ascendant shows us how we are perceived at first glance when we are dealing with pain
IC shows us how we are perceived by our family (or in a safe, secluded place) when we are dealing with pain
DSC shows us how we are perceived by our partner or best friend when we are dealing with pain
MC shows us how we are perceived in public (or in our career) when we are dealing with pain
North Node shows us our salvation (where we need to focus on in order to heal)
🕊 Sun trine Moon & Sun sextile Moon individuals have an easier time healing their traumas and wounds
🕊 Sun opposite Saturn & Sun square Saturn individuals feel the need to rebel from their father/grandparents, norms that have been imposed on them, old customs & traditions, institutions/government, in order to heal themselves

Top 10 Cozy BLs!
Tumblr media
Our Dating Sim made me realize we have a new sub genre of BLs happening right now: the cozy BL. 
I decided to invent/identify/name this new BL category because... I can. I crowd sourced (here in the hellhole) opinions of how to define it and what should go on it. The collective brainstormed and elected the following qualifications: 
low angst 
low stakes 
high domesticity 
a central relationship that is more cute than anything else
extra points for found family
AKA BLs that make you feel happy and comfortable. 
These BLs leave you feeling warm and safe, like a hot water bottle. I will list them in order of my personal preference when in the mood for “cozy.”
Tumblr media
1. Our Dating Sim 
(Korea, Viki) 
Did I create this list for this show? Yes I did. It defines this category. It is a very low stakes, high domesticity, extremely warm and gentle second chance at love office romance. 
This is a fuzzy blanket of a story that perfectly suited KBL’s short-length tendencies. The pacing is... muuuuuah... chef’s kiss. 
Tumblr media
2. Seven Days 
(Japan, grey in 2 parts Seven Days: Monday - Thursday | Seven Days - Friday - Sunday) 
 Popular first year Seiryo has a policy of going out with any girl who asks… for one week. On a lark, third year Yuzuru tests to see if that policy also applies to boys. Seiryo agrees that it does. Along the way they accidentally fall in love. Possibly my favorite BL of all time. It’s very gentle with us and its characters while still having that Japanese emo edge to it. 
A master class in quite yet riveting cinema. 
What, you doubted me? OF COURSE it’s on the list
Tumblr media
3. My School President
(Thailand, YouTube)
GMMTV gave us a classic high school set Thai BL with tropes like messy boys singing their feelings that made this one Love Sick for the modern age with all the gentle sweetness and pining ache, but none of the dated damaging tropes or issues. Yes, we’ve seen it all before, but I still ADORED this, and that’s partly what makes it so comforting. Who let my BL be this wholesome and funny? 
Tumblr media
4. See You After Quarantine?
(Taiwan, Viki) 
Be you never expected lockdown to be comforting? This under appreciated gem is Taiwan’s answer to Gameboys and is just as charming and adorable yet still as quintessentially Taiwanese as one might hope. It features a Japanese love interest and the cutest most confused disaster gay. Slow burn because the two have almost no actual screen time together and yet manage some truly amazing chemistry plus sweetly caring and earnest. Honestly how does Taiwan do it?
Tumblr media
5. Ingredients 
(Thailand, YouTube) 
At the time (during lockdown) many of us referred to this as our “emotional support grocery store advertisement.” If all you want is two soft boys being domestic, cooking together, cuddling on the couch, cat sitting, and babysitting - just put this on and be comfy.
Tumblr media
6. What Did You Eat Yesterday?
(Japan, grey) 
Basically the grown up version of Ingredients. Emotionally repressed, grumpy, salary man shows his hair dresser husband his love by cooking amazing meals. That’s it, that’s the whole show. There some queer fam drama, and blood-fam coming out drama, but mostly is husbands cooking and eating together and it’s great. Is it BL? Not really. Do we care? Not really. 
Tumblr media
7. The New Employee
(Korea, Viki) 
This one is queer comfort, explicitly. If you aren’t queer you might not find it as warm and engaging. A near pitch perfect office BL with conflict derived from that setting. Also featuring found family and a lesbian bestie. Sweet & innocent (and out) Seung Hyun scores the office internship of his dreams. On his first day at work he gets into it with his cool reserved (and also v gay) boss. 
As you do. 
But things get romantic pretty darn quickly. 
As you gay. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
8. En of Love: Tossera & Future the series
(Thailand, YouTube) 
Tossera = Younger boy wants to court older boy and does and… that’s it. No really that’s the WHOLE STORY. There is actually no angst, drama, or, indeed plot. But are they the softest bois ever to BL as a main couple? Yes, yes they are.
Future is... exactly the same thing. 
Are we mad about it? 
Nope. 
Tumblr media
9. Oxygen 
(Thailand, YouTube) 
Softest seme in the universe sings his affection to the older boy at the cafe. Let the slow burn courting commence. Oxygen uses every BL trope in the playbook for one of the gentlest lowest angst BLs ever made. It’s a hyung romance (younger boy courts older boy) but very very earnest about it. Am I biased? Sure. This is probably one of my biggest comfort watches. 
Tumblr media
10. Our Dining Table 
(Japan, Gaga)
Lonely salaryman and talented cook gets accidentally adopted by a college kid and his little brother. It’s a quiet cozy little parable of found family alleviating loneliness. Possibly too slow for some but definitely high up there for me with the best of what Japan can do (like Restart After Come Back Home), it’s only flaw (if I dare say such a thing) is that it is not really “romantic.” Lovely & sweet but the romance beats are being used to build a family relationship, not just couple intimacy, it’s OK with me, but not totally BL.
For me one of the hallmarks of cozy BL is that as a chronic rewatcher I find myself starting to rewatch these ones even as they are still airing. Oxygen was an icon of this (also my first watch-along and the reason I realized I really had a passion for BL)
Shorts
Summerdaze - Singapore & Korea, YouTube
The 8.2 Second Rule - Japan, YouTube 
A First Love Story - Korea, YouTube 
Some More - Korea, Gaga 
Quite a few other Strongberry offerings.
More like this?
Top 10 Most Romantic BLs for Valentine’s Day
Top 20 Softest Couples in BL
Top 10 Cutest BLs
Fluffy Sweet Soft Thai BL
10 BLs Best Enjoyed with Hot Tea & a Roaring Fire
MOAR RECS?
From the blog comments. If I agree I gave it a description. 
Boys Lockdown (YouTube) - actually on this list because it go so many votes by everyone else, I haven’t watched it. 
My Ride (GaGa) - Thai BL grew up with this pulp - a truly lovely and special little show featuring the extremely rare pairing of sunshine/sunshine AKA a cinnamon roll couple. Mature explorations of relationships using one of the softest, sweetest and most innocent friends to lovers vehicles. Kindly, overworked doctor meets broken-hearted motorcycle taxi driver in an “other side of the tracks” slow burn romance. The support cast is excellent, making for great friendship groups and family dynamics. With honest queer rep that adds to, but doesn’t impede the story, and genuine conversation about the nature of class, wealth, and classism, not to mention communication, honesty, and respect for boundaries, you can’t go wrong with this show. In other news, I am a sucker for a single dimple. Full review.
Takara-kun to Amagi-kun (Viki & Gaga) - yes, high school angst but so sweet about it. Review here.
2 Moons 3 Ambassador (grey) - I love this odd little pulp, it’s oddly satisfying for all it’s awkward cheese-fest. Maybe that is why I like it. Review here.
21 Days Theory (YouTube) 
About Youth (Gaga) - A truly lovely little coming of age high school BL with a classic YA low drama but high angst and an earnest depth. Full review here.
Ai no Kotodama (Gaga) 
Be Loved In House: I Do (Viki) 
Cherry Blossoms After Winter (Viki warning dub con) - it’s here because a lot of people (like me) love it, but there are objections. Review here.
Cherry Magic (Japan, indie subbed) AKA Doutei dato Mahoutsukai ni narerurashii - the sweetest, fluffiest, most charming bit of adorable ever, full of found family and pastry and serious slapstick, the characters are utter spazzes, but so cute about it. Still that aspect makes me a little tense so I don’t find it as cozy as others do.  
Craving You (Viki) 
Destiny Seeker (grey) - see 2 Moons Ambassador 
DNA Says Love You (Gaga) - particularly the last few episodes. 
La Cuisine (GaGa) - sweet and kind of pure show, and like Thai desserts perhaps requires too much patience for a layperson. Because of the pacing and the focus on the bad girl character, I did dock it. But if you like stuff in the Oxygen vein, then this show is for you, and far better than most Thai BL pulps. That said, I suspect that I enjoyed it more than many would. Full review. 
Meet Me Outside (Gaga) 
Meow Ears Up (Gaga) 
Mr. Heart (Viki) 
Mr. Unlucky has no Choice but to Kiss (Viki) 
Nitiman (Thailand YouTube) - This Thai BL pulp had sympathetic characters, a solid tsundere uke redemption arc, and a fantastic pining seme who yearned without bullying, grooming, or gaslighting. Plus when they were together, they were ridiculously soft. But it also had a realistic portrayal of university life, bisexual awakening, and friendship groups. Ending is okay but a victim of lockdown.
Old Fashion Cupcake (Viki) 
Ocean Likes Me (Viki) 
Roommates of 304 (Viki) 
Wish You (Korea - Netflix or Viki, you want the movie version) AKA Wish You: Your Melody in My Heart - low stakes high pining romance about a pianist who falls in love with a busker who is on his way to being the next big idol.
There was quite a lively discussion coming up with this list, since everyone defines cozy differently but I am not alone in my top 10 choices, these mostly got the most votes.

actual serious pinned because some people dont Understand the other one apparently. i talk about serious things and that does include gore and essentially anything that would need a tw. huge gore draw-er also. serious things basically. most if not all portrayal of mental illnesses is based on my own experiences so do not come here saying you dont like how i show it. that being said my blog is not all entirely about that and its mostly silly and or shitposts actually. also i actually dont usually tw things uhmm. were playing roulette here. basically if you get triggered by anything i wouldnt recommend being here its always a 50/50 on if i post something silly or traumatic
do Not post my art uncredited unless ur a mutual or i say its fine im serious idgaf if its just a silly doodle
standard dni i guess. racists terfs homophobes proshippers zoophiles. all that. also people that ship Real Life People Instead Of The Characters. youre all fucking weird and i dont want you here ill actively make fun of you and then block
i am pro endo and i have endo friends so if you dont like that its ultimately up to you if you wanna be here or not. most htfasj fans have me blocked but if you are one and you dont ur on thin ice bro. im not forgiving any of you for fucking jumping me for saying i wasnt a fan of it. also please for the love of god if you ship glsneeg with any of the other characters do Not talk to me about it because there is a good chance i will throw up in my mouth and block you. glanboo/hetch shippers on thin ice. guy who came up with that kind of ruined it for me and now it just makes me feel uncomfortable most of the time
i have autism and im gay and i use faggot. i have some other problems that will fuck me up or that ill talk about sometimes but thats all you really need to know so im not going to dox my medical problems here
less important stuff under cut heart emoji
nearly everyone i interact with calls me sneegen. idc if new people do its basically my government name atp
this blog is genloss themed but also i talk about my genloss ocs more than the actual thing now 😓 still a huge genloss fan but sneeg and frank are the only guys ill ever talk about in there and i will throw up slash negative if i have to talk about glanboo. do NOT come here asking about glanboo unless ur a mutual im serious. i take sneeg/frank and the horror that comes with it so violently seriously and overall theres a few genloss ships i like so if ur one of those guys that think any shipping is weird you probably wont like it here. also i usually dont use any of the main tags for. anything i post. if you wanna find something youre stuck to manually searching just like everyone else sorry
kind of multifandom i guess. i have moments where i get really fixated on other media and i post about it for a bit. sneegsnag is usually a common factor in this. heavily into marble hornets creepypastas tmnt dantdm jacksepticeye and markiplier. both of their ego content and any of marks projects by extension. not into ethan nestor As Much but he is included and so is blankgameplays. i like qsmp but if i talk about it its only ever abt qsneeg or qcharlie or qdantdm and his family sometimes. osmp enjoyer but again ill only talk about sneeg if i talk about it at all
the biggest music enjoyer in the world guys. not a professional but i will talk about songs i like sometimes. tfb and teenage disaster mostly i think. maybe typhoon and bcnr also. maybe even alot of midwest emo because im a loser. im literally tfbs biggest fan guys
for my dumbass ocs i do talk about and draw them Alot. and theres alot of heavy stuff in their stories so like. if you get badly triggered by gore or murder especially i wouldnt. recommend reading into them too much. but idrk why youd be here if you did thats like my whole thing really. i dont usually talk about the actual triggering stuff in their stories i think at most ill make a vague comment that implies something but thats about it
you are allowed to draw and write and make hcs and aus for my guys i actually actively encourage it and also show me when you do i think its wonderful. ill talk about them forever if you ever wanna know something just ask and theres a 85% chance ill actually answer it
the only things im 100% serious about for my ocs is that theres canon ships for a reason. i do not give a FUCK if you think a different one is better or interesting because its not. if you come into my asks shipping anything that isnt canon im actually going to block you. im very nitpicky about this because they are My creations and every single thing about them is heavily important to me. also if you baby or demonize any of my ocs im allowed to kill you legally btw.

music
music seems to be my relief as for many. I relate a lot to more emo/grungy artists, the lyrics especially that of Fried by Fluoride... maybe not your favorite artist, due to his actions or the general idea of his music... to that I say he is vey misunderstood, for one he barley even sings about women, often just self pity and distaste for the world- things I relate too. I especially like the song 'Too Far Gone' he sings in the first few words,
'Hang yourself because you cant have her Everything is a disaster cold world where nothing matters Take your pills obey your masters'
'Hang my head cause im a failure Too far gone to really care Every night death calls my name I don't wanna live here another day'
you really need to listen to the song to get the vibe but I can only really say how much I apricate? like? relate? uhhh no words to describe my CONNECTION to this song, very "real".
one may ask why i like such a "tasteful"... artist, truth be told he has emotion he really puts effort and his should into the music, he I'm my humble opinion (lol) is basically nirvana in 2020
ehhh I've lost interest in writing this- case of my "laziness"- read my intro thingy
also wanna say some of his music is truly a master piece I am surprised he is not more popular or main stream

I am SO excited for I Am My Own Muse
Never in my life did I think I'd be going on a rant on Tumblr about Rasputin from Just Dance but here we are.
Ok so obviously his costume is great, I know the whole fandom is thirsting over him now. I don't even need to discuss that. That's not even the main reason I love this. I love this because it's so WELL DONE for something so RIDICULOUS??
I mean look at this.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The drama. The backgrounds. The effects. This is a wonderfully done map. And what did they put all this effort in for?
THIS GUY
Tumblr media
I'm just obsessed with them pulling out all the stops on trying to make a compelling dramatic love story out of RASPUTIN. I love when things are silly. I love it so much. And you can't tell me people would be this invested if it was some other coach. This is it. This is perfect cinema.
Two more notes: -They better actually tell us what happened between them? All we know from the preview is he's sad. I really hope the full map tells us what went wrong at the wedding and doesn't just go "she's sad! now he's sad!"
-I love that this seems to take place right after Sweet But Psycho. I like to imagine Rasputin ran in at the end, saw the disaster, and just immediately transformed into this punk-rock emo Fall Out Boy looking guy. That's just the power of a broken-off wedding in Just Dance.

Base by @/mlpbases on Twitter
So i was thinking of making a fake generation of my little pony, honestly i simply drew them at first to make a good background for my school laptop however I've actually have written down stuff on them so i figured I'd make a post about it

Here's their designs i think they're really cute, most are based on gen 3 ponies and the blue one is twilight, pinky pie is pink toola roola is the orange one the green one is minty the white one is star catcher and the purple one is sky wishes, i also have sketches of pinky's niece and twilight's little sister but nothing concrete yet in terms of design
I also have their cutie marks fully designed, i will explain their reasoning for having them right now
Tumblr media
Pinky is obviously a party planner, although in my version I'd feel she'd also be able to plan formal events and that would be her main income, i imagine she's really good at public speaking, however i also think she wouldn't be able to bake or cook so she'd delegate it to another pony
Tumblr media
This is sky wishes cutie mark, i feel her job is ran outside her house, she reads tarot cards to people and tells them their fate, i also imagine she likes astrology and is obsessed with star signs i also imagine she lets pinky's niece, love letter, run her business stand outside her house under her watch i also imagine she'd have difficulty flying for more than a few seconds or even walking in others
Tumblr media
Pinky often delegates her catering to minty, she can cook a variety of meals and probably writes her own recipes but specializes in sweet treats and makes those the most, also pinky and minty live together in mintys bakery
Tumblr media
Twilights talent is still magic and she works in demolition, i imagine she is powerful enough to levitate herself or another pony, I'd see her being confident and also a bit emo, i imagine her and her sister raspberry popper would talk in 'horse code' (mlp sign language, it would literally just be morse code) I've looked at how the hearing aids are typically drawn on ponys however i don't know how i like them drawn on twilight
Tumblr media
Here is star catchers cutie mark, she leads the towns weather team to make sure the right weather is in the right place, i also imagine they'd be trying to prevent or stop attacks or natural disasters in the town, i feel like she'd be pretty busy a lot of the time, although she wouldn't have to actively be setting up weather a lot of the time she'd still have to be there on the lookout or be giving training to new workers
Tumblr media
And toola roola obviously is talented in art, i feel her house has either a ton of her paintings or even paintings by artist she likes, i feel like there would purposefully not be much if any self portraits of herself and she'd also probably live in her head quite a bit, i feel she'd be the "twilight" of my made up generation, i could also see her reading a ton of comic books but probably not regular novels

8, 16 and 20 for the ask 👀
8: what I hope more people will come to appreciate
My beautiful disaster lineage daughters Komari and Nim
Honestly, out of all of the main Yoda lineage they seem like the characters people love to forget about (Nim i can forgive because she really only is mentioned in one book i think, but KOMARI even has visuals!!!)
I just think more people should pay attention to Dooku's older emo daughter
16: tiny detail in canon I want more ppl to appreciate
it has been.... a hot second since i actually watched any canonical sw, so this is a bit tricky
uuuuuhhhh can i say the Diathim? they are my favorite sw species and i actually really like that they took the kinda throwaway line of Anakin in tpm and made an actual space siren/angel species
20: my very first fandom
this is also... difficult
if you say fandom as in me exchanging opinions about a franchise with at least one person, then probably Sailor Moon. I had one (1) friend who also read the manga and we sometimes talked about it
other than that, if you want to count like actual fandom as in larger (online) spaces then it is indeed star wars. the one and only, really. at least that i am active in in some capacity

can you pls tell me more about tsubaki aoyagi..
Explodes in rondo oshi. Yes i can <333
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I think first of all we have to take note of how tsubaki is heavily implied and almost confirmed tbh to be raised catholic. while we know she studied with rika when she was tiny so she didn't study in the christian school, we also have confirmation that she DID frequent a church alongside Miyu fairly frequently and was part of the choir, hell, Miyu herself called her big sister tsubaki in the past so with this we already have the confirmation of one thing::: judging by the other raised catholic girls in the series (lyrical lily, esora), tsubaki was infected with the gay disaster virus at a young age.
However, this also brings us the fact that she WAS part of the choir. "Why was?" Well you see, rondo unit story 1 confirms to us that tsubaki somewhat left the choir some time ago and now comes alone to the church to sing. As events go on, she eventually gets comfortable and sometimes join the choir alone to help too, but she didn't fully join them. We also learn that Tsubaki used to take voice training classes because she enjoyed singing and would like to work with that in the future, however, her teacher told her that her voice wasn't cut to that and she wouldn't get that fair and, disheartened by that, Tsubaki quit singing for a LONG time... Until one day aoi heard her singing all alone in a church, entered and asked her to join her dj unit. This goes on and on for a decently long time since tsubaki was still afraid of singing and thought she'd make rondo fail because "she isn't a good singer", but she also slowly grows more and more confident on herself and her singing as she stays w rondo!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
However. This girl is still an absolute disaster (probably the biggest one in d4dj after saori). Tsubaki is bad at basically anything related to housekeeping: cooking, cleaning... It's one of the main things she struggles with, SPECIALLY cooking. If you want an idea, on the valentine's day rondo event tsubaki had to go ask for help to hiiro because she wanted to make (not buy) chocolates for "someone special..." Which just made hiiro giggle because she knew it was aoi. We learn that Tsubaki was able to make them with hiiro's help, because when she tried doing it on her own, she burned the chocolate. Tsubaki is also an incredibly heavy sleeper even if she usually stays up late watching western movies (which brings us the knowledge that tsubaki DOES enjoy western media and, as such, since she's emo we can conclude this girl absolutely could be into american emo bands) (and i mean, rondo does has a fully english cover with tsubaki singing, so) which causes her to fall asleep during her uni classes and the others (usually hiiro) giving her canned coffees and calling our her poor sleep patterns. A lot of the time she oversleeps, too, making so that rondo meetings have to be at the evening or at night since she will be late otherwise and with them usually having to call her to wake her up. She's pathetic and also i love her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now let's talk about her relationship with Rika. The two did meet initially at school, which Rika confirms that Tsubaki was a VERY quiet and shy kid, a nervous wreck, and that because of this Rika, always bright and popular, decided to befriend her specially so she could help Tsubaki. However, after some time, Rika noticed she started to distance herself (implied to be after her singing tutor told her she wouldn't get very far) and Rika felt powerless, like she couldn't do anything, and that's where rika decided she would always be willing to help others like tsubaki and not let them go. Rika tells us that at the merm4id christmas story that this is one of the reasons as to why she always tries her best to make others smile, because she doesn't want anyone to get all lonely and with no friends like tsubaki was when they were small and growing up. However, recently the two reconnected and are besties again, with Rika still annoying (lovingly) the hell out of Tsubaki who insists she doesn't like Rika that much, but it's clear how important both are to each other: tsubaki being the one who gave rika's being a purpose to help others and always be true to herself and rika being the one who always was there for tsubaki, the one who gave her a boost to, when she was ready, let herself open up to friends and relationships again.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And then we get to the girls themselves. Aoi and Tsubaki... God. First of all we have to acknowledge that their feelings ARE mutual and it's heavily implied in many stories (rondo maid, rondo phantom thief, aoi and haruna relations) and, considering d4 already has a canonical lesbian couple, who knows. Aoi and Tsubaki also gave each other a purpose and basically saved each other, with aoi giving tsubaki a chance to sing again after insisting on it for so long, assuring her but not pressuring that it's okay for her not to be perfect because her voice is still beautiful and she needs tsubakis voice on rondo and tsubaki allowing aoi to be herself, being the only one who saw aoi past this handsome facade: because she knows the real, clumsy aoi, the one who's scared of bugs, the one who is an airhead and gets lost on conversations, the one who doesn't want to be recognized only for her appearance as a "handsome girl", because for her aoi isn't only handsome or cute, for tsubaki, aoi is pretty, beautiful. (Sorry i re-read the haruna aoi relations event yesterday and i think im still feeling things over tsubakis phrases)
Both are extremely important to each other and hiiro has canonically described them as soulmates, both because they balance each other, but also because they allow the other to be true to themselves. While tsubaki seemed to be a instant crush however, we can see aois crush slowly forming through the stories and it's just so vkcnkdnckjd. Rika herself has thanked Aoi for making Tsubaki smile again (shuffle event story) and they make me insane. However, one is an airhead and whenever she tries to confess something gets in the way and the other is a nervous mess who never truly gets the courage to be honest and, even when she does, the flirt goes over aois head. It's the world's silliest dumb mutual pining ever and they're so in love it makes me crazy.
Also Marika has literally canonically joked about the two marrying but that's another thing.
Tumblr media
And even if she is a disaster, tsubaki is still a cool, caring friend to the others. She will always be the one telling haruna about the real aoi, the one who will be there to call nagisa out when she's being too impulsive with her ideas, the one who allows aoi to be herself, the moon to rika's bright sun, the tutor and caring figure to miyu. Tsubaki may be a mess, but she is still someone kind and caring behind the stern gaze, someone who wishes to help others and become close to them, no matter how nervous of doing so she may be.
She's silly.

Rating each of the 88 IAU designated constellations based on how good they would be as a name for a member of the Black family because I’m bored and this road trip will take at least 2 more hours.
Andromeda: 10/10 no notes. It’s perfect disaster name material.
Antila: 6/10 I feel they would be the weird middle child of the family
Apus: 5/10 could be good as a domineering father figure, otherwise I wouldn’t want to call my edgy soft boi Apus Black

Gemini: 4/10 youngest child energy

Pyxis: 8/10 a name for a younger sibling who reads a few too many dark magic books

Sculptor: 3/10 I could see them using it as the name of an ancestor who lived before the 17th cenfury

Vulpecula: 3/10 any child named this will immediately become angry

ok i know i have a song by the maine on every one of these but i can't help that they make songs that make my brain go '!!!!!!!!' slip the noose is one of my favorite songs in general but goddamn is it just so perfect for them !!!!! 'i was on the verge of breaking down, until you came around, and not a second too late' ???? that's them baby !!!! ifs all about trying to let go of your past (your miserable youth, if you will) and how someone can come along and see the good in you and help you through whatever you're going through right when you need them. i'm crying !!!!

Hi! We're the Lycoris Undead Collective, collectively we go by a few names. Sorin, Jack and Vincent being main ones. We are collectively Trans Masc and on T with no surgeries. Collectively not taken by anyone. We are 17, our birthday is 12/17/06. We use he / him mainly but also like they / it / hymn and zey / zem / zeir.
We are not DX for OSDD and a few other things, we are DX for Depression Anxiety ADHD and HSD however. We are physically disabled and use a cane.
Our tag for collective posts or intro posts is 🩸.txt due to that being our systag.
We are interested in : Phighting! - BSD - Persona 5 - Bleach - FMA:B - Soul Eater - NGE - Ultrakill - MGS2 - Milgram - RvB - Dungeon Meshi - HSR
We really like The Crane Wives, we're trying to get into emo and goth music and fashion. We really like Peirce the Veil. Some of our favorite goth and emo songs are Caraphernelia, Lucretia my Reflection and Sacrifice. Our favorite goth fashion style is romantic goth :)
We bounce around interests a lot so some of our interests we know a lot about and some we know very little about but still like them very much so please be patient with us about that.
We have a Lot. of fictives and dormant alters and fragments.
We really don't care for syscourse with the exception of endo shit (which we honestly don't even feel should be discourse) so endos DNI. Like We obviously can't force you but we do not like endos and will just block you. The ONLY exception is people who beleived they were "endo" due to repressing trauma and genuinely being unaware of the fact they are traumatized.
We are fully open to system friends or just singlet friends ! We are a bit of a social disaster though so be warned. We may get too scared and/or irrationally aggitated to respond especially if weve barely talked to you. We are very awkward and a little bit of a loser. (I don't mean that as self deprecation we just literally are LMAO)
MAN this was a bit of a ramble fest, wrapping this intro up with a bit of userboxes !

Black Libary Writer Ranking?
I'm notoriously bad at remembering names, so I really only remember authors who either excite me a lot or completely horrify me. So it's probably not really a ranking!
My favourite author is (who would have guessed!) Josh Reynolds. He manages to fill action sequences with life just as much as he fleshes out his characters and brings in the most interesting supporting characters, all of whom are not just background noise but drive the plot and have their own agenda. And by the way, his language is beautiful and a pleasure to read.
Then follow Nick Kyme and Chris Wraight. You can just tell Nick Kyme loves his characters (even if he kills them off a bit too often for my taste!) and is keen not just to churn out a plot, but to bring background and expand the universe.
Chris Wraight is also a fantastic world builder. And, incidentally, someone who tries not to fall into stereotypes too often. And someone else whose language I really like and who takes the trouble to bring in a lot of background.
I like Abnett occasionally. He's written the best versions of Lucius and Saul, and his "Know No Fear" is my benchmark for disaster movies. Uhh … disaster books? He can do timing and he can do action. What he can't do for a nickel is female characters. Every one of his women is "not like the other girls" at its purest. And the fact that in every one of his stories humans have to be given a supporting (yeah, most times even main) plot line, even if the novel is about Space Marines or Primarchs, is absolutely not my thing.
Ian St. Martin has delivered solid entertainment with the 40k Lucius stories and the infamous landmine short story made me laugh a lot. For the most part, I really liked the side characters he served up. Can and should certainly write more about the Emperor's Children. At least when he hits the brakes a bit on the Slaanesh stuff.
Aaron Dembski-Bowden is a very solid author as well. I love how he dives into his characters and tries to bring out the best and most interesting sides in them. At least with the canon-characters. His OCs tend to be very similar and I'm not that into troubled emo-boys. 😁
Honourable mention for John French, I quite liked "Slaves to Darkness".
I think Guy Haley is okay. No particular thoughts on that. So how he handles the Fabius/Cawl book will be a key experience for me as far as he is concerned.
Anthony Reynolds, the author of the Word Bearers 40k books, has undoubtedly made an effort and Burias, Marduk and Kol Badar are also quite great characters - but unfortunately he can't really write a story. He has a pattern and he follows it in every book. In every one.
Not quite the big hit for me is Steve Parker. I love Kill Team Talon. These guys are entertaining and have a fantastic dynamic. Great fun to read and I'd like all the books to be about them too. Unfortunately they aren't. Instead you get over half the pages of boring inquisition plot and misogynist crap of the highest order. Unnecessary. Could be so nice! (Almost as bad as McNeill's famous bouncing boobies. And ten times more "not like the other girls" than Abnett). Please Kill Team Talon by another author! I like them too much.
Who's at the bottom of my list is probably well known, and I've already explained in detail why I need a restraining order for McNeill to stop him writing anything for the Emperor's Children.
I've now probably forgotten about ten authors or so that I also have an opinion on. But I can add them when I get a chance!
