I confess I’m partial to FE8 because recent Fomortiis revival and all but -
The recruitment theme “Comrades” just rocks -
And it always reminds me of that scene when Innes’s "I am an asshole you’re so fired” was so found out by Gerik and Tethys.
I think this is my favourite Innes moment lol
#fe8#magvel nonsense#Innes just rocked in that scene#and Gerik? 100%#get rekt Jerry#Gerik's so badass#too bad in feh he is meh but damn

Day 16 of Cats-pril, @storyweaverofgondor‘s April baby! Today’s prompt is rehearsal, and I tried my hand at writing a chat fic! Also on Ao3 here.
..
HarvestGoddess: Since my darling Munkustrap refuses to interact with the digital world, this is a formal request from the friend group mum for everyone to turn up to Pekes and Pols rehearsal tonight please. If Munk loses any more fur from the stress he’ll be a sphinx cat! x

QueenVic: np!
HarvestGoddess: Thank you Misto! I can tell you that Tug is currently convincing Munk that he’s signed up for a Japanese ikebana class under the guise of impressing you, and that Munk can’t possibly expect him to miss it.

I haven't mentioned the Cave Daycare AU in a while, so here's a status update:
My rendition of the story is up to seven chapters
I have written four whole chapters of the Stella/Teeny side fic
Neby has written six chapters of their own thing from Nebula's perspective
Comedy and Tragedy have fics from their perspective, detailing Comedy's decommission and also the duo meeting Sun n Moon after Nebula and Esme disappeared
We have several branching AUs, including, but not limited to, Mermay and Cryptid AUs
The Cryptid AU itself has almost as much story as the OG AU
Jerry keeps getting worse and worse
We're bringing back Bonnie
Monty slander is still a consistency
Nebula almost dies part 2
We've claimed a lullaby/music box cover of Death Bed Coffee as the "fnaf end credits music box" for the au
Roxy/Stella/Teeny is a crackship for the Nebula Stella personality swap au
There is a kahoot with exactly 69 questions
And we are currently crack shipping every DA with Roxy, much to the behest of resident Roxy enjoyer, Cbear (Ursa), this was the intention, get rekt lil man
We've only had these scrunklies for a handful of months but there's not a day that goes by without thinking of them

I know my theory is wayyyyy off but...
What if GOT7 dedicated the whole Flight Log Trilogy to us? To tell us who might be going through a rough time and just needed to learn to let go and be free? THINK ABOUT IT FOR A SEC Now I really wanted to make this about Jinyoung but I got insecure about it cause I don't want it to seem like I'm putting Jinyoung on a level above GOT6 cause I mean-GOODNESS THEY REALLY NEED TO HAJIMA AND REST LIKE HAPPY GOT7= HAPPY AHGASE- but I also thought of this too. I have lots of theories on it so lemme know if you wanna hear my others. Anyhow, GOT7 constantly tells us how much they appreciate us. Mark said as long as they have their fans, they don't care about the fact that their songs don't sell that well. These 7 sweethearts would do anything for us fans which really touches my heart. (Billions of people who you don't know, billions of faces and you take the time to entertain them without even knowing how they'll react to what you work so hard to prepare. People really underestimate the pressures of being an idol.) And all of the songs have several meanings. Jinyoung has said Fly is a song about youth. I'm thinking Jinyoung is supposed to represent ahgase. But in the video, the time on Jackson's camera stops as if to tell us to stop thinking then and after and just focus on now. Fly m/v is about us being happy, free "Flying". They want us to let go of our worries and let us know that they're here for us. A few lines that make me think this way ( These lyrics are from the mv subs. I don't speak Korean so don't come for me if it's inaccurate, though I'm assuming these are translations by professionals so...): Jackson: " Are you happy? I'm happy yeah."- Jackson's always telling us to be healthy and happy and that he's good as long as we're good. Such an angel 😩💚 "Every morning I wake up feels like a dream"- These guys are living their dreams. This was Jackson's dream and he's living it. "Today, like always my day starts with you."- They wake up and slide right into schedules, doing things to make us happy. WowSoAmazing7 *No sarcasm intended* BamBam: "Do you sleep well at night? Sometimes I wake up because I can't believe it's true."- Bammie almost didn't debut, which we all know was cause of how young he appeared. (I feel like if he was a maknae who didn't look like a maknae like Yugyeom, he would've debuted without doubt. But my baby proved JYP wrong and y'all can sleep on him all you want but that little boy is a man now, just so you know. It's totally fine if you don't though cause more for me *Thug life shades fall on* "GET REKT") But he did and if I were an idol, every second I'd be in shock and disbelief. Like I really am making my dreams come true. I can only imagine getting to be like that someday... I feel like BamBam thinks that way, as do the others. Dream7 "You know what it means, feeling scared sometimes, I run without looking back and here I am again in your arms."- Every comeback, every hairstyle, almost every word, almost every move is a show for idols. Let them change their hair color, wear a little more makeup, maybe sing instead of rap or vice versa, maybe decide to brush their teeth while headed to their plane, and we're all over them shooting opinions, taking pictures, making posts, etc. It's intimidating to know that, but they still gotta move quick, so they just have to run without looking back. You can't hesitate. And BamBam reads our comments and I'm not sure how or why, but there are antis out there ( I don't get why anyone has anti-fans. Like if you don't like them, fine. Mind your damn business outside the fandom cause at the end of the day, they're the idol and not you *Thug life shades* *CHUCHUCHUCHUUUU*) and it's scary to see how every move you make is received. But these boys love us so much that they might find comfort when we receive it well and love them regardless cause they're so pure and care about us so much. GenuineSweetheart7 Mark: " Though are love is ordinary, the value is immeasurable ( You hear me?)"- I'm gonna be honest with you guys, I've been through the Justin Beiber phase and Drake, Gabe Bondoc and Bryson Tiller are all my husbands, but I've never been a fan for anything as much as I have been a fan for GOT7. Never have I wanted to go to a concert, never have I wanted to meet anyone as bad as I wanna meet these boys. I'm about to go into college and need to save my money, but I just wanna buy an Aghabong so bad 😖. I'm trying to become fluent in French cause I'm only as far as highschool AP French, but I'm learning Korean because I want to talk to them all comfortably one day, without a translator or without them having to switch into a tongue that isn't their mother tongue. One of the reasons I'm their fan is because of how they treat their fans. From the videos I've seen, fanmeets are just like restricted hang outs. They look so chill, JB in his little singing trance, Jinyoung and Yugyeom being Tom and Jerry, etc. I love that about them. They love us and treat us just like any person they love, but the value of their love is immeasurable. Basically, Mark just told us that they love us lots ( AHHHHH 💚) Charming7 Yugyeom: " Don't know what's at the end until we get there so don't let go,hold on tight." I know these lyrics come in the in-between time when we're all still shook by the foot work and pace of music and dancing changing and we're all anticipating the shoulder move ( 🤤I love Dancing7) but these are my second favorite lyrics. Once again, every move an idol makes is a question that you'll never know the answer to beforehand. Like falling in love. No clue what'll happen, or what's at the end, but Yugyeom, the fearless and carefree maknae is going for it anyway so just stick with him. (Which we'll gladly do because everything they do is just great. I even loved Stop Stop It era like I was obsessed for a week, looking at every video of them performing it along with Magnetic and Gimme Gimme. They cringe at it so hard, but they must not know that their looks make anything work. Even baggy overalls and salon mishaps.) Visual7 I feel like this is getting pretty long, but I have theories on the other mv's and short films too. I love these guys and I love everything they do. I became ahgase like in March and literally everything is perfect. Perfect7. I'm glad I found Sunshine7 cause I really needed a light in my tunnel.

// (I have a lot to say and after typing all of this out I’ve realized I’m gone off a huge tangent so bare with me please my thoughts are very hard to organize )
I personally have a lot to say on this and how people take something from canon way out of proportion and use it to fulfill their stock character need to have some sort of bad guy because god forbid we write characters to not be one sided but morally complex
At most cubas character could described as a loud passionate sometimes abrasive personality Like if you look up his character notes it literally says that they describe Him as being a good natured, nice big brother with strong emotions that he is very faithful to At heart, he is a cheerful and chivalrous man... that doesn’t really strike me on being the abusive or violent side like at all
The only time he’s relatively aggressive is when it is In reference to America and it’s usually like in a slapstick way way kinda reminds of like Tom and Jerry and that being said we haven’t gotten a strip with him and America interacting directly it’s usually
“I’m gonna go kick America’s ass “ or something along those lines
Despite being in other strips , for some reason all the fandom can do is remember that like one scene in the anime where he like mistakes Canada for America and bonks him on the head like it’s supposed to be silly
Like the joke wasn’t haha he’s angry and abusive the joke was supposed to be the fact that Canada is confused for america and he doesn’t like America haha funnie get rekt
Which The stereotype that Cubans hate Americans isn’t even really accurate, the government has issues with the United States and their policies , the people particularly don’t Really The same thing could be said with other countries in Latin America that have a turbulent history with the United States But since Latin America hasn’t really been personified yet that’s not a fair comparison to even make Maybe a more fitting comparison if you wanted to compare Russia’s interactions with America in canon (which I will also say is also really heavily villanized and or wubified by the fandom too because a lot of people don’t understand his character either )Regardless of the current government and their history cuba and a lot of Latin American countries have a lot to be angry about when it comes to the United States not only with current say policies but also decisions from the past that still effect the country ... ahem ... ahem the american ideal manifest destiny but without bringing actual history cause hetalia is comedy show first about stereotypes And very loose maybe sprinkle in a fun fact about history . Like
You don’t see people saying aph England is a violent and and abusive character because he has strangled France multiple times you just brush it off and be like yeah that’s just the French and english rivalry stuff like it’s supposed to be a joke about how they fight
Like at best its cherry picking , and like it’s not like their real sure but idk it kinda seems like double standards
Like I’m giving hima the benefit of the doubt like this is coming from the perspective of someone who is Japanese and probably just thought like hey it would be funny to have him get all angry over a misunderstanding like it’s literally meant to be a joke because it literally is it’s a joke , that’s what hetalia is . I just don’t like when people say well that’s the stereotype whelp what you gonna do about it he’s angry and violent now because those are the stereotypes for Cubans when it’s not like how fucked would it be if I just took any of your token favorite European character who has the moral capacity of a nestle crunch bar in the summer and said well I don’t know France has been to war and has a big war record that means he’s like blood thirsty or something like that literally is against hetalia’s narrative in terms of being able to make fun of silly stuff
Like stereotype of violence just doesn’t make sense ? Especially like when you consider that he’s a afro cuban character or Atleast a good majority of the fan base has decided he is i say that because
both the anime and the manga can never decided on a proper skin tone for him As His first appearance he’s seen to have dark skin but one of his more recent ones make him more on the lines of having a light tan , his skin being much lighter then lets say spain which kinda bugs me because while I don’t want to get too in depth there’s something to be said about colorism, People have complaining for years about the lack of poc rep then piss on the characters that already exist , the ones very few ones don’t get paid attention to but back to my original point here The stereotype of violence and anger like how people take something so simple like something that is meant to harbor absolutely no serioisity whatsoever and twist it into something else entirely It just reminds me like the angry black man stock character and stereotype that you would have seen popularized back in the 70s and 80s , also the stereotype that Latinos are inherently violent And I know people are gonna tell me well that’s a huge reach but I’ve seen it in some fics that decide to include his character and that’s saying something because there’s not much fan content considering him being a minor character I’m not gonna accuse hima of that but the fandom sure as hell loves to do shit like that sometimes I definitely think it’s built off of racism and ignorance Because it’s literally twisting something and making it bigger then ever really should be Like literally Every country has the capacity for violence.. , like they are countries they have all done fucked up shit like the first half of the show centers around wars Happening and mind you they do it in a light hearted and funny way because the show doesn’t take itself serious and neither does the manga and you are gonna make the little island a character who barely show ups all violent and abusive when that’s literally the opposite of his character in canon ... and I already hear it now I know I know like some people are like fuck canon I do whatever I want like by all means write make art produce content you want but for the love of god it’s not hard to not be insensitive you don’t to need to take Latin American studies to like take precautions on the message your trying to say when it comes to portraying certain characters in certain ways from a creative perspective it just seems to fall short you know , Not only does it make it a shitty villain, its just propelling horrible stereotypes like hetalia has always made it its thing to go after like silly things like Americans are tall blonde and obnoxious , Germany is really really serious like they are stereotypes made to poke fun but never does it actually cross the line of trying to be racist because in order for it to be racist they’d have to portray one of them are being inferior in some sort of Way that isn’t to say the show hasn’t had any controversies especially regarding its poc characters because it has but it’ never been the intention and it shouldn’t be the fandoms either , but obviously that would be too easy right as there’s always going to be ignorant people in fandom spaces . Now onwards to
art perspective Like When it comes to some of the art I’ve seen it’s either one of two things , making him really skinny which like is another thing because he’s one of the few characters in a large cast that has like some diversity when it comes to body types but that’s a whole ass other argument and like really light skin , not even slightly tanned I’m talking about America looking mixed next to him it’s very close akin to what you’d call white washing which is complicated with comes to Latin American characters , Latinos aren’t specifically any particular race , because the term isn’t a racial thing it’s something unified by cultures and languages Like while yes you could possibly make cuba white because the racial diversity in Cuba is what makes it unique to the point where cuba used to be described as the golden Chalice of cultures , in Spanish which Kinda similar to how the United States its the melting pot of culture Most of Cuba’s cultural heritage is unique blend , like most of the Carribean the people come in all forms of color but a good chunk of the culture is Afro cuban culture or at the very least comes from it and despite that being a lot the backbone it’s usually the first to be dismissed , why?
Because Colorism is so strong in the Carribean that people deny their African roots and heritage Entirely while being brown common thing which is sad
And it’s a legitimate problem so Atleast for me I tend to like the idea of him having darker skin and it’s not for woke points or anything ,it’s just as matter of I think this is best way to represent my culture and the fact that his first appearance in any of the content hima has ever produced showcases him with darker skin
Says something at the very least , despite the character going through a series of skin tone changes in canon I’m pretty sure it was kind of intended for him to be afro-cuban depiction of cuba like it leads me to believe that, was Atleast what Hima was initially going for despite him changing it
So other then skin lightening it’s either
super exaggerated like racial depictions , like with extreme proportions that are meant to look
Well like racist depictions like it actually reminds me of like the art they used to make when the casta system was still in place or like if you would want a more Americanized comparison, the exaggeration in proportions remind me of like little black sambo and I’m not even kidding like I genuinely wish I was and they draw him all angry and violent like it kinda makes you wonder what year people think their living in
sometimes people aren’t even discreet about it like I’ve seen like this one artist who literally posted art aph America being a kkk member burning aph cuba and I’m not even joking , it’s on deviant art check it out at your own risk like it’s sickening as fuck like it’s genuinely disgusting that people like this exist in the fandom and it’s not just the Japanese part of the fandom or exclusively the western part of the fandom it’s a issue in general that needs to be addressed like don’t get me wrong I’ve seen wonderful artists and writers who actually capture the essence of his character and the culture he represents But this isn’t about them, like You wouldn’t believe the fucked up shit I’ve seen like this shit is unacceptable , and as a fandom we have to take measures to make sure stuff like that doesn’t have a safe space for it
So to wrap up this tangent of mine , let me just reiterate what eggs said and say that it do indeed be on racism baybeyyyy
It’s also really annoying when they do make POC characters darker but they make them violent or always angry *cough*Cuba*cough*
All imma say is that's racism baybeyyyy and I feel its not my place to go off on t h a t so imma give the floor to my good friend @ask-hws-cuba who is Cuban and u should follow

I want Noblespark to protect his son-in-law. Already anyone who’d bad-mouth Blackout he’d go off on (”You do realize he’s helped kill off entire species?” “Okay but that was ten trillion years ago jerry stfu we all make mistakes”) but just imagining this bot who does not fight, has very little experience in fighting, is a soft-sparked dad to all fighting for or on behalf of a giant asshole who deserves little to no redemption is so good.
I mean there’s a 95% chance Noble’s gonna get rekt if nobody intervenes but it’s the thought that counts I suppose.

Oh, and did you notice that the AU that claims to be against heteronormativity not only puts a m/f ship at the forefront in many of its most popular stories, but very often enforces traditional gender roles, intentionally or not? Like, Toriel rarely gets a chance to be anything other than Sans' pretty housewife, and not only is Sans more proactive than he ever was in canon (where it took the literal end of the world for him to actually do anything), but the AU itself is often just called P/T/A Sans.
"But Alphys/Undyne, Mettaton/Papyrus, Frisk/Monster Kid" - are usually just shuffled off to the background as generic happy couples, rarely given anywhere near the same amount of development and focus as Sans and Toriel.
And while I'm at it, this AU is far too bent on taking a game filled with morally-grey characters, making them all pure paragons of virtue who can do no wrong, and introducing a bunch of flat, one-dimensional Not Always Right-esque villainesses who have no reason to act evil other than "because they can" and only exist to lol get rekt by Sans. Even Jerry was handled more subtly (and in a much funnier way) than this, I'd argue.
And for those who want to argue that this is a joke AU that's not meant to be taken too seriously... one, you still have to think through the implications of what you write, even if it is a joke. Two, if it's a joke, why are there so many fics that portray (or at least try to portray) the AU totally seriously, giving the world overarching plotlines and huge amounts of lore and all that?
It's just, the more I think about this AU, the worse it gets.
Hey folks, my name is Spiny NoSleepUntilVacation, and in this first Autism Acceptance Month of the decade, I got something to say with regards to a certain Undertale AU. You've seen bits and pieces of my complaints from time to time, especially in more recent posts, but in this post, I'm really gonna go all out and say what I feel hasn't been said enough.
(Deep breath)
I. Have had. Enough. Of PTAt*le.
I've had enough of people taking Undertale, a game about learning to find common ground with people who are different than you (and presenting this as a favorable alternative to violence), and turning it into "lol no let's just throw in these shrill ladies who are deliberately made to have no redeeming qualities whatsoever and have sans totally dunk on them!"
I've had enough of Sans being made out to be this total badass who protects Frisk from all the dangers of the world and sweeps Toriel off her feet in his off-time. Does no one remember how he literally threatened Frisk over the dinner table, even in runs where Frisk did nothing to deserve it?
I've had enough of Toriel, the actual badass mother figure from canon, being turned into Sans' perfect little feminine docile housewife who isn't powerful enough to stop abusers on her own and needs Sans to put them in their place for her.
I've had enough of Sans and Toriel being arbitrarily shipped in these timelines, with Sans singing "Can't Help Falling in Love" and absolutely no other love songs ever in between exchanging puns with her.
I've had enough of Frisk, the awesome child hero from canon, able to stand up for themselves against all of monsterkind and convince them not to start another war, being reduced to a kid-in-distress who needs Sans to bail them out when confronted with humans who mean them harm (remember when Undyne and Flowey, among others, literally told Frisk to die? Remember how Frisk still stood their ground? We played the same game, right? I'm just curious).
While this doesn't happen quite as often, I've had enough of Papyrus being victimized or at least rendered unimportant in the narrative just to make it especially personal to Sans. Because Papyrus is just a baby, amirite?
I've had enough of the implied ableism in the previous two examples, since a lot of these works emphasize that one or both of these characters is autistic. And they can't stand up for themselves and need Sans (who often isn't stated to be autistic) to defend them because...?
I've had enough of the female characters either being extremely unpleasant strawpeople (the PTA moms), rendered ineffective (Toriel), or just not present in these conflicts (Undyne, Alphys, everyone else) while Sans (a masculine character) is the big hero we're supposed to cheer on.
And hey, I'm on a roll, so have a few more complaints: why is it bad to be concerned about legitimate safety hazards, as I've seen in at least one comic (the one where Sans and Frisk build a literal tornado for the science fair and Helen complains)? Why does having a vegan and/or gluten-free diet make you evil in this world? (Is that why Alphys and Mettaton don't have super-huge roles beyond "Undyne's girlfriend/wife" and "Papyrus' boyfriend", because the cooking show had them approve of vegan diets and that can't be reconciled with the rules of this world??? /s) How could these PTA moms gain so much power if they have a total inability to cooperate with anyone? How could they even procreate in the first place, because that requires courting someone, and who would want to be around someone that cartoonishly unpleasant long enough to give them babies?
Oh, and are these moms supposed to be serious threats, or are they supposed to be total jokes who exist to get owned? Their portrayal within the works fails to give a definitive answer. And while villains like that do exist in other media, they're at least given traits that make them fun to watch, or even likable to a degree; the PTA moms have none of that.
And did I mention that this AU is often presented as a canon continuation? So you can't even act like these are separate entities; you're trying to convince me that these are the exact same characters from canon. It's a hard sell, as you can guess from what I've said.
TL;DR: this AU just feels like three parts OOC ranting against real people by proxy, and one part Sans worship (combined with shipping him with Toriel just because). Seriously, why can't Frisk or Toriel - or hey, even Papyrus, or one of the other canon characters - be the hero? Why can't the moms be portrayed more as characters instead of strawpeople/plot devices? Hey, Undertale itself had a built-in jerk character; why can't Jerry be the bully?
But yeah, just keep on putting Sans on a pedestal at the expense of everyone else (and canon characterization and the game's intended morals), we don't have enough of that in the fandom...
#long post#spiny speaks#po'ed porcupine hours#in case you couldn't tell by now you probably shouldn't follow me if you actually like this AU#this also goes for liking certain popular fanfics centered around it#if i wanted to read not always right i'd go to not always right#it's like the 'villain with good publicity' trope is utterly lost on the writers#they make the moms so over-the-top unpleasant#it makes you wonder how they ever gained that much influence if they act so shrill and unbearable 24/7#just call this au what it is: sans worship pretending to be against discrimination when it really isn't
