I read a bunch of soapshipping fanfics today and I love how so many of them give Tyler actual flaws and treat him more human than he ‘actually is’ in the movie and…I wanna share some hcs i have that make Tyler ‘not perfect’ as well. I get the point that in the movie Tyler was supposed to have none bc the narrator needs to drool over him & see him as godlike but whatever. That man has issues. You can especially see this during when he was going Joker mode when he was getting beat up by Lou. Anyways this is going under a cut bc it’s long
————————————————————————
• I’ll start with the out with one that’s most common which is that Tyler is soooo bad at sharing how he’s feeling or being super heartfelt. The only person he even tells his true deep emotions to is the narrator after they’ve been together for a while. I feel like he would be that way due to how he was raised and or trauma. Getting him to admit to feeling uncomfortable is hard too. He wants to come off confident all the time so he will just smile at whatever is thrown at him even if it’s making him upset or anything like that. Also of course he has a hard time expressing how just deeply in love he is with the narrator and how much he cares about him. (Which causes problems for them both but they work thru it. Nothing could keep the narrator away from Tyler at the end of the day.)
He wouldn’t admit it but I think maybe he also resents himself for not being able to say certain things easier. He knows he hurts the narrator sometimes when he’s not saying ‘the right things’ and he genuinely doesn’t mean to hurt him in that way.
•He can get pretty jealous. Not like how the narrator feels like he’s about to kill himself bc someone even glanced at Tyler but like, if Tyler thinks someone is being a little too friendly to narrator or if he thinks the narrator might enjoy being around someone else ‘too much’ he gets all huffy, smiles threateningly, and either interrogates the narrator over ‘what that was’ later or just roughs him up some when they are in private again. He hates the idea so much that the narrator could look up to someone the same way he does Tyler. He has questions going through his mind along the lines of how are they better than him? What does he see in them? Do they make him feel more loved? And etc.
Hypothetically he should know that the narrator would rather die than touch anyone else & that the narrator sees him as a God but,, Tyler is just like that :/
•Ok now for a not widely accepted hc about Tyler. I don’t think he’s that good at writing or reading. He’s not terrible at it but I think he really didn’t give a shit about most things in school besides history. (He could probably give a big whole speech about how bad school systems are)
He doesn’t really care that he’s not that good at either of those things but does get a little embarrassed about it when the narrator points out he spelled something wrong. He will just grumble about “who cares?” or “whatever dipshit.” The narrator doesn’t mind that Tyler’s not the best at it and helps him out when he needs to without picking on him.
•Kinda canon but he’s a act before thinking type of guy in most situations. He prides himself on it for the most part but also there is times where it doesn’t end well for him. He will defend himself about whatever he did ‘wrong’ for a while until he finally is some how able to admit he’s sorry and shouldn’t have done something (only to the narrator. He doesn’t care that much if it’s anyone else that isn’t especially close to him)
•I think he had a self h*rm problem growing up. He doesn’t do it anymore now that he’s older bc he has fight club and whatnot. I think SH helped him come up with FC since he thought physical pain always helps solve mental pain.
He doesn’t hide the old scars since he can blame it on like a ton of different things and people don’t have a reason to doubt him. Like he can say he got them from years of fighting, while running away after getting caught doing stuff he shouldn’t, stuff like that. Sometimes he also just doesn’t lie about it and just says straight up what they are from. It just depends on who and how he feels that day. Like mostly the only ppl who know what they are really from are the narrator & tylers close family and maybe Marla.
Not to be cringe…I know the “he kissed my scars 😢😢” things can be cringe (believe me I would know) but I think Tyler thinks it’s sweet when the narrator does kiss his. The narrator hates that Tyler ever felt like he had to do that (but at the same time is okay with fight club??? Lol) The narrator has stayed up in bed while Tyler is sleeping and just looked at all of them and thought to himself about how Tyler must of felt, why he felt like he had to, and all that.
•My man has some kinda mental illnesses. I couldn’t say what but he just does. He’s a very impulsive man and can become very manic is all I can really say.
•He will get ideas and plans in his head and focus on them a little too hard and it’s hard to pull him out of it. The narrator is really not someone who should be fussing at people for not sleeping but he does anyways. He offers to work out whatever plans or ideas Tyler has while Tyler rests. Sometimes Tyler will let him & sometimes not. If not, the narrator will at least stay close to him so they can talk about whatever is on Tylers mind.
•He actually used to hate his laugh a little when he was a young teen. He got over it after a couple years and now doesn’t give a fuck what others think. He will laugh as loud as he wants in a quiet room if he wants to.
•Going back to that manic thing, I think the narrator can usually calm him down. It especially helps if he’s holding Tyler and pulls him away from whatever has him worked up. Narrator will run his hand up and down Tylers back or just talk to him soothingly. Tyler is usually thankful for it once he’s calmed down.
•Canon-ish again but Tyler can get a bit in over his head with some stuff. He believes he can do just about anything which leads him to getting into situations where he finds out he actually has little to no idea what he’s doing. He had this problem as a teen too like he’d say stuff like “Sure I could fix your fence!!” or just like little odd jobs around the neighborhood and he actually doesn’t have much of a idea what’s going on but It helped him learn how to do all kinds of different things in the long run. He just always finds a way to make things work more often than not in his own ‘Tyler’ way.
•Okay often he really doesn’t genuinely care if someone wants to listen to his speeches/knowledge or not. He likes sharing them since he knows they’ve helped others but he’s been doing that for as long as he can remember even at inappropriate times. Like I dunno, as a kid at a funeral I could see him just telling some random person there about how he knows how bodies decompose, how bodies slowly rot and what each stage looks like. (I think that’s why he loves the narrator. He loves how randomly weird he is as well.)
•He needs attention all on him. He loves it so much and feeds off of it. His favorite kind of attention is from the narrator and he will get snarky and whatever when he feels like he isn’t getting enough from him but also he just thrives off attention from anyone in general. It’s what makes him carry himself so confidently. He knows people are dying for a minute of his time and to be the idealized version of himself he puts off.
•He doesn’t allow himself to cry in front of others. More than likely it’s because of his father saying boys shouldn’t cry or be weak. He knows it’s bullshit deep down but he still holds that mindset for himself. (If another dude is crying like the narrator, he won’t give them much shit for it.)
•My final idea for right now….he hates the doctors and all things like that. He can say a ton of reasons why but the main ones are he just feels super uncomfortable at places like that because either 1. He doesn’t want them going on about how bad his or the narrators health is & being really worried for them and questioning them.. or 2. He just finds it hard to be as snarky or smart to ‘em. They all don’t usually fall for his bs unless they are a part of fight club or project mayhem.

September 3rd, 2024 - Arcaea, Proseka, SDVX EG, IIDX 31
goob morning!!! this time, i gave AttraqtiA a bit of a fairer chance now that i could understand the rhythms and tech and all that pizzazz that was preventing me from doing well on the chart at first. and as a result, i managed to get an EX+ on it!!! twice!!! hooray for studying charts!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
a quick ProSeka interjection: was kinda bothered by the MAX FC-1 stat on my profile for Expert FCs (had all but one), so i just went ahead out of boredom and FC'ed that last chart that was bothering me. now i have all 459 expert FCs as of writing this!!!
Tumblr media
proseka interjection over? yay, then its time for the quick Round 1 visit after my orthodontist appointment!! it was waaay quicker than i imagined, so i was able to take the bus to the mall right after finishing my appointment and hop off at the Round 1 Bowling & Amusement stop, rushing straight over to the SDVX cabs to do some gaming and hopefully kickstart a lengthy, action-packed session!!!
unfortunately though, the line was far too long and there were new people (mostly couples, blegh (just kidding i hold no ill-will or repulsion or interest for that matter to couples)) lining up to play seemingly every second. thus, i only got to play two full sets before giving up and getting out of there... but not before taking some sick new scores like a 986 on Absurd Gaff [EXH-16], normal clears on funny knob charts Hitogata [MXM-17] and Sakura Fubuki [MXM-17]... as well as an upscore from Failed to Excessive Clear on #FairyJoke [EXH-17]!!!! I'm gangsta TSUMAMI-er!!!!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
arcaea jumpscare!!! (was playing while in this line to deplete as much of my stamina as possible, these maps sure don't grind themselves out...) got a near-EX+ followed by a really good EX+ on GLORY : ROAD [FTR-10] yayayay!!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ending off the session with a quick IIDX set where i played a bunch of cool and awesome and funny charts! not sure if the scores were good or not, but that White on the Show [SPA-9] ranking is nice! oh right, and i actually got a non-ran HC on Cinderella [SPA-10]!!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
gaming cooled down and nearly stopped back at home (i really wanted to focus on writing, but ended up not writing at all w) . but for whatever reason, i just really felt like playing Fracture Ray after remembering a funny video of some guy dancing to it... and with a bunch of leftover World Mode stamina, i gave it a shot -- went from AA to EX (+0.01 PTT yay!), then EX to slightly higher EX... and then 986 EX to 995 EX+????? what the actual fuck????? +0.02 PTT too??? i'm still in shock and this was from yesterday!! absolutely no idea how i got it, but it's insane and awesome anyways...

Fanfic Ask Game 💖 👨‍👧‍👧 🌈 (Sleepless) 🤔🌝💻💭
Thanks so much for the ask @petiteboheme!
💖 What do you like most about your own writing? Right, I hope this doesn't come across as pretentious or self-aggrandising (my new word of the day! lol) but I like that my writing is a good mix of humour and realism (this is what I am aiming for, anyway, and based on the feedback I've received, I seem to be hitting the mark!)
👨‍👧‍👧 Do you tell people in real life that you write fic? 
Hell no! 😅 People I know in real life do not need to know I write smutty fanfic!
That said, there are people in my life who know that I write, like my husband (bit hard to hide from him the fact that I spend several hours per week slaving away in front of my laptop; plus, I keep asking him random questions for things I need for particular chapters, so he knows what I'm up to), and I've told my sister (because she used to write as well, and we actually collaborated together a few times in the past).
🌈 What inspired you to write Sleepless in New York?
I don't remember what inspired me, exactly... But at some point last year, I started toying around with an idea of Drake meeting Harper by himself while the guys were in New York for Chris' bachelor party and then lo and behold! @aussiegurl1234 publishes a (then) one-shot called The Sparrow exploring exactly this situation (which later turned into Golden Boy)😅 So she kinda beat me to the punch lol.
But, my HC remained, and after marinating it for a good few months (I actually came up with the basic outline of the dive bar chapter first - I knew Harper would get into some kind of kerfuffle with some drunken pervs and Drake would step in to save her), I finally started writing. And everything else (the arrival, the subway, the karaoke) came on the fly.
And even the dive bar chapter ended up turning out rather different than I had imagined it originally - I had originally thought that Drake would take the guy(s) 'round the back and beat them up, but when I actually wrote it out, it didn't feel right, so he just sent them packing verbally - but his quip about having "to make it seem like I wasn't actually here for her. Otherwise, we'd be going 'round the back, and taking on four guys by the dumpster was definitely not on my list of things to do tonight" is a nod to this original iteration 😇
🤔 What is the hardest part of writing fic?
The writing part 🤣
Don't get me wrong - I love writing! But the more I move away from canon, the more new ideas I have, but actually getting the ideas organised into a coherent form on paper is sometimes quite hard (because I don't have the safety-net / framework of canon to guide me).
For instance, it happens a lot that I get a random hit of inspo about a part of a conversation (a few lines usually) that I then need to figure out how to work into the rest of the conversation; not to mention how to arrive and then wrap up that whole conversation!
🌝 Who is one character you haven’t yet written for that you would like to?
Freya.
Your request to explore her a bit more got me mega intrigued, so on my list in the near future is a one-shot written from Freya's perspective that will explore in more detail the day she met Drake.
And, I have finally found an FC for her, so I'll be able to put together the moodboard for the chapter that I had in my head 🤗 (which was actually one of the things that's been delaying the writing 😅)
Tumblr media
💻 Do you do research for your fics? What’s the deepest dive you’ve done? Oh yah! I research all the time! 🤓 See here and here.
But the deepest dive I've done to date is researching Italian for the conversation that Drake has with the pervy Italian-Americans in the dive bar in Sleepless. Because not only did I have to write the conversation in Italian - but three different versions of Italian (Italian-American, 'standard' Italian, and Corsican vernacular - because I like to make my own life difficult 😅)!
Because - unbenownst to me when I started - this scene required several hours of research on YouTube (listening to native Italians explain the differences between the different Italian regional dialects), looking at online slang dictionaries for Italian-American (and comparing to 'standard' Italian vocab/slang) and then coming up with Drake's own vernacular (combination or 'standard' Italian and Corsican pronounciation).
And bear in mind that I do not speak Italian...at all! Nor can I seem to be able to wrap my head around it because even though I speak French, I find Italian to be so different in terms of spelling and grammar that I have a really hard time making heads or tails of it!
💭 What is a headcanon you have about your own work?
I don't think I say this specifically anywhere, but I HC that the story takes place in 2021 (because that is when I started writing the story - I actually wrote Chapter 1 of (Un)Common Attraction in Nov/Dec of 2020, but then I left it for a while and picked it back up in Jan/Feb of 2021).
Obviously an alternative 2021 (because there is no Covid) 😅 but whenever I mention dates (in conversation or in phone screen shots) I am using dates from 2021.
Tumblr media
If anyone has any other burning questions they'd like to ask, the full list of questions is available here.

what age group, gender and ethnicity do you most often end up playing? if you play original muses with canon roots  ( like oc siblings, coworkers, etc. )  or someone who’s been either just a name or a few lines of dialogue in canon, how do you build that character? do you pick the muse first and build from there, or do you need have the muse ready in your head and only then pick the connection, or a combination of the two?
Forgive me because this is gonna be long ;w; thank you for the ask tho!
what age group, gender and ethnicity do you most often end up playing?
Between all of the muses I’ve tried, I apparently most often end up doing older men of varying ethnicity and race lol
if you play original muses with canon roots  ( like oc siblings, coworkers, etc. )  or someone who’s been either just a name or a few lines of dialogue in canon, how do you build that character? do you pick the muse first and build from there, or do you need have the muse ready in your head and only then pick the connection, or a combination of the two?
Okay so, I’ve got a total of two original muses... well, sorta, an original muse and a half. I muse my MK oc, she’s a ghost that haunts the Lin Kuei temple named Ying Yue, and I muse an original take on the krypt explorer who me and another friend named Isamu Ueno! With Isamu, I picked the muse and built from there and then made a connection, with Ying Yue... I dont really know how to describe -w- partly because i dont remember bghbfh 
Basically, Ying Yue was built off a hc I previously had that the Lin Kuei temple is haunted. I wanted a chance to rp a sweet bean of an oc like just the absolute sweetest nicest gal and well optimistic for a woman with a tragic end. I had discussed some ideas for her in a server I’m in and they helped me develop, played around in a picrew, and one of my friends suggested a fc for me, and boom out came Ying Yue, a very sweet ghost that wants to befriend everybody in the temple and whoever Kuai likes because she trusts him also thanks to another friend i accidentally ship her with frost because i love the grump and happy trope
As for Isamu, it started with a random thought of rping the krypt explorer, since as far as I knew nobody did that yet and I wanted to see what I could get away with when it comes to a character that canonically has no character, he’s just an avatar. I also disregarded all theories of him people thought of because, well, I didn’t even hear of most of them at the time! Anyway so a friend was helping me think of base ideas for him, name nationality personality etc. Ideas for his past popped into my mind late nights before sleep, and the rest I just sorta winged. I originally wanted him to be some weirdo with a macabre fascination for death and stuff, really edgy and dark, likes to sleep with the dead to see what it’s like to be dead and be surrounded with death, but then I... entirely forgot to write him like that! so he became a himbo. Eventually the complete opposite happened, so he’s a himbo momma’s boy that’s afraid of death but is too invested in adventure to ever stop, and has a weird kleptomania problem to cope with a traumatic event in his life. He’ll be like “Some people??? steal from graves?? to cope?? okay???” but still I promise he’s a big ol grumpy himbo... that’s probably robbing your house as we speak, approach slowly with food and kindness and he’ll literally drop everything for you because he can be good sometimes
he just needs some love
but blogs can be found at @arctikanspirit and @kryptictraveller but I’m not very active on ying yue’s blog because im at quite a lost for how to start it OOPS but blease feel free to interact with isamu

This blog is still kinda new so this might not show up, but... I’m really in the mood for some 1x1 rps (preferably on discord), if anyone’s interested! I’m a full time student so I get a little busy for replies sometimes, but I am always on for hcs, plotting and all that fun stuff! Gonna add all the info down below because I have a tendency to ramble so I’m sorry it’s a lot lmao.
Tumblr media
general info about me: 
I’m 23, so I’d prefer my partners to be at least 18+. GMT+5 timezone, but almost always online and replying on discord because insomnia lmao. 
As mentioned above, I am a full time student and have classes mon - fri with my busy days mostly being tuesdays and wednesdays. 
I write all pairings m/m, f/f, m/f, nb, etc. My personal preference is m/m or m/f. 
I’m pretty open with the kinds of plots I do, let me know and we can talk! I’m a sucker for cliche tropes. Good with nsfw content, darker themes and smut, but the last bit isn’t the most important thing for me so if you’d rather not i’m 100% good with that too. 
Only faceclaims I won’t write with are deceased fcs, underaged, or ones with abuse, racist, etc histories. 
things I really want to do: 
lets start with fandom pairings: 
Buddie from 9-1-1. I love them so much, friends to lovers trope??? THE BEST. and who doesn’t love hot firefighters? I’m down for literally anything with them, canon, aus, etc. just gimme. I can play either of ‘em but my preference lies with playing Buck. 
Reddie from IT. Another pairing I love with all my heart, I’d be down for any au with these two as well. All the tropes, all the aus, fix-it timeline? Lets go. I play Richie, but I could try my hand at Eddie. 
Justin/anyone (OCs included) from 13 Reasons Why. I just love Justin Foley so much, and I wanna rp him against someone, please? I’d give you anything you want lmao. 
other fandoms include: Teen Wolf, GoT, Stranger Things (Byler, Lumax, Elmax, Stancy mostly, possibly Mileven or Jancy), The 100 (I play Murphy).
non fandom plot ideas: 
alright, so like one specifically for m/m would be frat bros. They sneak around and hook up and it’s all “no homo lol” until they realize that it’s actually very “yes homo” and no matter what they say that it’s just sex, deep down they know it’s not and it leads to complications and frustrations, even jealousy mayhaps? bad explanation but we can talk and i can explain my thoughts better lmao. Could have joined the frat together in freshman year and are best friends that start hooking up, or one muse could be a pledge or new initiate, the other is a slightly older member. for the latter I wouldn’t mind playing either muse. 
this one’s for f/m and I’d prefer the f, but could def do m too! The idea here is that f was never in a serious relationship because she was always busy and focused on her goals, but she started dating m and he understood her priorities and supported her. they had a good, strong relationship and before either of them knew it they’d been together for 2-3 years and that made f panic because she felt trapped even though she loves him and ends up sabotaging their relationship and sleeping with someone else. She tells him and he breaks up with her but they’re both still very much in love and maybe trying to work through it as friends? But can they remain just friends? lets find out! he may also be trying to make her jealous but that’s neither here nor there. 
an idea for f/f. One’s a popular cheerleader and the other’s a little nerdy and unpopular. They’re either best friends that grew up together and both harbor secret feelings for each other but never acted on it, or they’re even already dating and we have the cutest relationship where they’re just in love and so fucking soft. Or they could hate each other’s guts but there’s always this sexual tension under that both are refusing to admit until it spills over and a heated argument leads to another kind of passion. 
m/m, f/f, m/f, m/nb, f/nb, nb/nb, any. And they were roommates!! They’re pretty good friends and roommates, but there’s always been a spark of something. Neither acted on it, but they’re also super domestic and get mistaken as a couple by people that don’t know them at parties or friends’ get togethers. Always side by side at those occasions, getting each other drinks. Muse A gets tired and walks over to Muse B who’s having a conversation with someone else, just tugs on their sleeve and Muse B knows it’s time to go home, excusing themself from the conversation to grab their coats and go home. Just super cute domestic stuff, it starts platonic but grows to more. Lets throw some jealousy in there if one time Muse B doesn’t wanna leave and decides to stay and flirt with the person they’re with so jealousy and angst! 
m/m. where muse A, closeted and in denial, calls a phone sex line on a dare expecting to talk to a girl but gets muse B instead, a shockingly sultry-voiced dude who just laughs at the mistake and keeps on flirting with muse A until he gives in and lets muse B talk him into one of the best orgasms he’s ever had — and after that he can’t seem to stop calling back, be it for sex talks or regular talks, eventually getting weirdly close with a guy he’s never seen and who’s never seen him, but who already might know him just a little bit better than most of the people who are actually in his life do. ( I got this from @softhvnds but the blog doesn’t exist anymore so i can’t credit them! ) 
f/m, m/m, m/nb. This one’s probably like a politician’s adult child (maybe a college student, etc) and their surly bodyguard, because I just love that cliche okay? The politician’s kid is kinda spoiled and maybe kind of a wild child, always partying and sneaking away, and the bodyguard always has to track them down and drag them back or go with them and make sure they don’t get too messy. just anything and everything about that lol. 
m/m, f/f. They’re kids of super rich rival business/magazine owners, politicians, etc, idk something like that. Basically just enemies, feuding families and they’re always trash talking each other every time they see each other as well. both spoiled and used to getting their own ways, probably go to school/college together and share a lot of classes, get paired up and hate every moment. See each other at social events too, always bicker, but maybe one day the bickering and arguing leads to a heated make out sessions and now they’re sneaking around to hook up and they totally don’t like each other, it’s JUST sex, nothing more, nope not at all. They’re both lying to themselves about that.

☺✑✼◑ ?
☺ If you have a faceclaim for your muse, why did you choose them? Are you satisfied with your fc, or would you rather find a different one?
I mean. Jun's fc is literally himself. Can't find a better one than that.
 ✑ Do you prefer writing OCs or canon characters? Why?
Canon characters, or characters that walk the line between both, like Asuia or Fire. I just find it easier to get invested in existing things initially, even if I build upon canon with my own thoughts and hcs after.
 ✼ When it comes to worldbuilding, what are some ideas you’d like to explore in rp?
I really want my keeper lore to be more relevant in actual threads, both in spiritverse and post-canon. I also wish the synchro hc came up more (or at all even)
 ◑ What is a side to your muse you want to show off, but haven’t had the chance to yet?
The few npd-centric threads I had never got very far which is a shame because I really want to write that side of my Jun portrayal more. It's always lowkey there of course, because it's an integral part of how I interpret his personality, but a little more focus would be nice.

Season 4 Analysis
STANDARD DISCLAIMER: I am going to be applying the concept of criticism to a TV show you presumably love and adore as much as I do. If you do not want your idea that the show is immaculate to be challenged, I would not advise reading past this point.
Tumblr media
Mood for the season: It's a SuPeR fUn HaPpY pLaCe!!!!!
You don’t need to, but if you are interested, and haven’t seen my analysis of past seasons, you can find those here:
Pilot
Season 1
Season 2
Season 3
Hey guys! It’s been a while, hasn’t it? Season 4! We are here! I am SO biased with this season. It has problems man. It has ALL the problems! ALL the plot holes! ALL the stupid, stupid stuff, but I LOVE ALL OF IT! okay, let's back up. I'm about to drop some context on you. 
So, when you're a military brat you tend to make friends with whoever you can, and when I lived in Germany I had a friend who was fandom OBSESSED. She, at the time, was super into Homestuck, something I managed to avoid being sucked into, though I do know more about it than I would like. Anyway, this was the point at which I started getting sucked into Ninjago. So, I figured that if I could trust anyone with a strange obsession, it was her. I showed her the last episode of season 3, and she decided she was just going to dive head first into it with me. We watched season 4 together as it came out, we talked about it, had a bunch of inside jokes about it, I wrote some very short fanfiction about it, she made some OCs, one in particular that I remember was Stormy, a ditzy cloud master who wore pink, we shipped him with... one of my OCs, I don't remember. She hadn't watched the first two seasons, so I had to fill her in on a lot, but she was the first person I ever fandomed with, and it was over season 4. So I guess you could say season 3 was the grand beginning of my love for this show, and season 4 was the peak of my fangirl experience (at least for that phase of my life).
Plot
This season is a real mixed bag. Coming off the heels of the first season, nothing makes sense. Suddenly there are more elements, completely discrediting Lloyd's supposed power of four powers. And now it's genetic, which brings up the problem of Jay, who... if either Ed or Edna were masters, they would have slipped by now (but also like, how cool would it be if Edna just busted out with lightning powers) and then Zane who... doesn't have genes. It makes the world bigger, yes, but it also discredits the lore of the last two seasons, and brings up the question "Where the hell were the rest of the EMs when the Great Devour attacked? Or the stone warriors? Or the final battle?!" Anyway, it's a bit jarring and sudden to say the least. It definitely was not planned beforehand. There aren't even any hints in season 3. Like wouldn't it be cool if in season 3 we saw them go to the noodle shop, or Wu was really vague about elemental questions. It would make a lot more sense then. Idk. It opens the universe up to the plotlines of most of the future seasons, but it does sort of discredit the first two. This season is also kinda choppy feeling wise. You go from the mood the past season have had in the first episode to this sort of native tribal feel on the island, and then the factory and then back to Ninjago. It's kinda a mess. Overall it was just an excuse to put these characters in cool situations (which I have done before, I understand). Which I get, and it makes for some cool stuff, but I don't think any of it ends up meshing together super well in the end. When I think of this season I think of the tournament. I forget about the whole snake stuff at the end most of the time. I forget about the while Garmadon conflict. The fact that I forget that's there has to be a bad sign, right?
Characters
Character work this season is really pretty good for the most part! There are a lot of new characters. And they all are very distinct and fun, and even when two people you don't know especially well battle, you're still really invested. All of the Cole and Jay stuff is pretty good this season! Major upgrade from season 3. The whole fight scene is absolutely fantastic. Garmadon is freaking awesome this season. He keeps on trying to kill himself, and it's stupid, and the show sort of acknowledges that it's stupid, cuz Lloyd is just like 'dude, what the heck'. Kai's arch this season is pretty good, exploring his darker side and putting that intense conflict in front of him was good. I can tell you one thing, I like it a heck of a lot better than season 7, but we'll get to that when we get to that. So, yeah. Overall improvement in character! It doesn't dive super deep or anything, but it all works and is all interesting.
Skylor
So... she is one of the reasons I call this season the fanfiction season. We have a whole bunch of other elemental masters we've never heard of, and one of them their power is... all the powers. I can not tell you how much this ticked me off! And she hardly ever uses them! She has pretty much infinite power, and she doesn't think to use it, pretty much ever! There are no restrictions on her! This is what I hate Skylor for. And I do mean hate. BUT aside from that, strictly character wise she is done pretty well. She feels pretty fake and overly sassy at the beginning of the season, but there's a reason for that. It's an act. But it's not like she changed her personality to fool him, she intensified her personality to cover her intentions. Her arch feels pretty natural. That one scene where she does the evil laugh... that was weird. But aside from that, it feels okay. She was raised to think that lying and cheating is the norm, so when someone presents her with another option she begins to change. It makes sense. I love the scene where Kai and her look at each other through the prison bars and (even though their freaking legos) you can feel her realization that she's ashamed of what she's doing now. And after she makes the transition, she's just really chill. Like, I would like to hang out with her. I guess it is kinda sweet that even though she had all of the powers of... ever, at the end she's happy to just run her noodle shop. It's kinda poetic. Anyway, she may be a bit overpowered, and she feels like a bit of a Mary Sue, but overall her personality and interactions are enjoyable enough for me to mostly ignore that. I do agree that she is best used in moderation. She doesn't need to be part of the team. I wish we had a quick cameo each season, but whatever. What we have now in season 9 is nice, but she definitely needs to step back out of the spotlight in future seasons (knock on wood) in order to remain as likable as she's been.
Karlof
Love him. Freaking love him. Honestly, I probably relate to him the most. He's the first loser of the tournament, he avoids trouble, he sticks to what he knows, and he says it like it is. I love his interactions with everyone down in the noodle factory. He's like this perfect blend of optimism and pessimism. His interactions with Cole are beautiful. Their chemistry is really great. One of, I think everyone's favorite masters, and there's a reason why.
Shade
So... typical darkness character. Obviously selfish. But once the climax hits, I actually like him a lot. He kinda serves as an antagonist at first and then flips. It's kinda cool seeing a character with moral boundaries that far out. He's purposely suspicious to take attention away from Skylor, which I get. I think he has a lot of missed potential, but nonetheless, a decent character.
Neuro
I absolutely love his power! I love his manor, I love his voice. He may well be my favorite EM. I don't even know what else to say about this guy. If Karlof is who I am, Neuro is who I'd like to think I am. Calculated, calm, reasonable, and much like Karlof again, not too risky. I like him a lot. Cool guy. I like seeing how far he's willing to go for the ninja, and where certain lines are for him. It's kinda cool to watch. He could use a friend though. I HC he and Paleman hang out. Both quiet. Both reserved. Neuro could probably locate him in a room even if he's not visible. Idk. Anyway, I like him a lot! Great character.
Griffin Turner
Classic speedster. Good enough. Not much to say. He's fun. He's cool. He's what you'd expect. Decent screen time. None of it particularly character developing. For what he is, he's good at it.
Jacob
So, let's ignore the part where they made us think he was dead. He's a lot of fun. Good for them getting a blind character in there. Still confused on what his powers can... do? But I like his spunk. I think we all have a little soft spot for him.
Chamille
One of the only girls and she's pretty much evil. Why do girls have to be evil at one point to be interesting? Idk. Don't really care for her, don't really think much about her. Whatever. She's there. She serves her purpose. Fine. Okay. Moving on.
Paleman
Friggin love him. For the master of light to be invisible is a great move, and pretty creative. His voice is kinda obvious, but very distinct. It's a creative background character to have. I like him a lot. Again, I feel he could use some more love. See above Neuro HC. Like him a lot and... yay.
Bolobo
Kinda missed the "mother nature" pun... could have had at least one more female master... that's okay. He's cool enough. Kinda disappointing though. I mean, vines? Is that it?
Gravis
Gravity is a dang cool power. Idk what else to say. He doesn't get a ton of screen time, so it's hard to praise him too much, but yeah. I really like that. Actually had an FC (she was a villain but you know whateves) with the power, so seeing that be a real element they used is really cool.
Ash
I don't like him. He's very strange. He's just got that one laugh. He seems comically over the top a jerk. I like the way his mouth looks though. Unique and kinda cool. I was looking on his Wiki page, and it said he and Chamille kissed in the background at one point? Is that true? I am way curious now
Tox
Okay. She's nonexistent here, no personality. I guess she's kinda tough. Yeah, this gets confirmed later in season 9, when she speaks. But even there she's pretty nonexistent. Here's my idea. Instead of having all your females being 'tough' why not flip expectation on its head? I think it would be way funny and clever if the master of poison was super friendly, and bubbly, and genuinely a nice person. I'm thinking almost like Jay's (lightning... or I guess adopted) mom, levels of talkative and nice. Wouldn't that be kinda fun? Idk. Whatever. It is what it is.
Kapau and Chope
Best villains ever 10/10. 'Nuff said.
Romance
KAILOR
Okay, I freaking love them! They're not my favorite couple or anything, but they work really, really well… under certain conditions. There are a few bumps I can't ignore. Can we have a protagonist in the show who doesn't send googly eyes at their future love interest the first moment they see her? And remember when they made us think Kai and Skylor were related... yeah... why did we need to do that? That was... kinda uncomfortable. BUT other than that, Skylor is exactly what Kai needed. First, he needed a redhead. Duh. Second, he needed someone who would see right through his Kai shmoltz and be real with him. Third, she had to be fun. And finally, she needed to wear the pants in the relationship. And Skylor fills ALL of those requirements! I like that Kai falls for her right away, and I love that she doesn't think she likes him until... she totally does and it's like 'Oh SNAP!'. I love that weird scene where Chen walks around with Kai like he's already his son in law, that cracks me up! I guess I like them more in theory than in practice. It feels a touch forced, and it needed a bit more time. Point being, the beginnings of the relationship are extremely awkward and strange, but towards the end of the season, it gets good! I just wish we could see more :)
The... love... triangle
Alright, by now, you guys should know how I feel about these things. They suck. They're stupid. I hate them. They're pointless. And this season is... quite possibly the stupidest. So... the whole Garma-Wu-Sako... thing this season is that Wu wrote a letter to Misako a long time ago, and Garmadon stole it, and then... Misako *groan* used it to determine which of them she was going to marry... okay. Yeah, Garmadon, that was a crap thing to do. But you know what, he was evil. Wu should have just signed the thing when he wrote it. But also, Misako... WHAT ARE YOU DOIN' GIRL?! Why... would you let a letter... be the final deciding point? I don't get that. And my main problem is that she basically chose her husband based on his writing ability. The thoughts Wu had in the letter obviously directly express what Garmadon wanted to say. In the end, his feelings for her were still the same. The only thing different is that he didn't write it. He's not good with words the way Wu is. But the show treats it like he lied about his feelings, and didn't even like her. Like he was using her for personal gain or manipulation or something. Idk. The whole thing makes no sense. Now, maybe if he did something to make Wu directly look bad or disingenuous THAT would be understandable. But... idk. I don't get it. Misako sucks. Let's move on.
Villians
Chen
Chen is my favorite villain. Hands down. No competition. Any way you slice it. I friggin love the heck out of this dude. And here's why. First off, he's a very comedic villain that still remains extremely threatening, which is an extremely thin line to walk. I mean, think about it. With all the other villains, they were intimidating, and the henchmen provided the humor. Here, I guess you could say they flipped it cuz Clouse is pretty intimidating, but Chen is still crazy scary on his own. And here's how they do it: He's insane. Straight up, he has lost his mind. Nothing he does makes sense, but that's fine, cuz it probably makes total sense to him. You can laugh at the quirky things he does, but also live in fear knowing that he has trap doors installed EVERYWHERE. Why? Cuz he likes them! Is there a better reason than that when you're crazy! That was my problem with people with Pythor. He is so smart, why didn't he ever think that the devourer might eat him too?! There is no explanation. But with Chen, that doesn't matter! He wants to be a snake! Why? Why not?! No flaws in that thinking, right? This is also why I like Ultra Violet so much. She's the only one to rival his position, but because she's more of a side villain, I don't feel that's enough to dethrone him. With insane villains, you never have any idea what they're playing at, if it's smart, or how to counteract, cuz they're just insane. I mean, seriously,
"Chen, the ninja have figured out our plan, what should we do?"
"COOL! Let's tell EVERYONE our plan!"
And it works! I love his voice. Just the way he says things makes me so happy! He's having so much fun, and I have fun with him! 10/10 villain. Great work.
Clouse
I can't get past the voice. It sounds so over the top evil and... it's kinda annoying for me? He has a decent backstory and such, but whenever he's on screen I always find myself wishing it was Chen. He just sucks the fun out of everything and leaves nothing there, so most of his interactions aren't particularly interesting. I don't know. Never really thought much of him.
Humor
Needless to say everything with Chen works! Everything with the EMs works. Jay's whole Positive Thinking streak is amazing! There's not a lot that falls flat on its face. It's really pretty fantastic.
Favorite joke: too many to count. If I had to pick one...
Chen's: the reds, the purples, the super dark purples!
Drama
This season has some damn good drama. It has my personal most sad moment in all of Ninjago. I'm of course talking about Garmadon's death...  JK! XD I WAS LAUGHING ALL THE WAY THROUGH THAT SEQUENCE! But we’ll get to that later. Okay. But for real, my personal most heartbreaking moment is when we find out Pixal is scrapped (of course it's Pixal related) but seriously, watching this for the first time, it broke my heart hardcore. I audibly gasped. They have these conversations, and she realizes he doesn't remember her, and it hurts her because they were comPATABLE GOSH DANG IT! And then he starts remembering, and she knows she can't go with him, so she lies to him to give him the motivation to make it out, and then the reveal, and Zane's heart breaks, and your heart breaks. This whole scenario reminds me of my own writing, it has all these things I enjoy using. Distinctions between fantasy and reality, characters lying to each other to protect them, and an ending realization of total and complete emptiness. Of course, Pixal is added into his head, and all is fine and dandy. It works for this season but serves her worse in future seasons. Regardless, that moment when Pixal says 'scrapped' is the most depressing thing I've ever seen. All of the Zane drama this season works really well. Zane having an identity crisis is something I didn't think the show would handle. When Zane says he's just a clone if himself I was like 'oh, dang! They went there!'. It's almost like he's comparing himself to Cryptor, and it's some heavy stuff. Everything this season is shrouded in mystery. I love that. For the first half of the season or so, I really like the tournament stuff. But as we get Cole, and especially Jay in the noodle factory, that plotline gets much more interesting. I don't get into the Nya and Lloyd and Garmadon stuff that much. The stuff with Kai is okay. But overall, there's some good stuff.
Climax
Okay, so... I... I mean I like the build up. The thing with all the trucks is really good. Most of it was really pretty good with all the EMs doing stuff the ninja would usually do. But the whole ending thing, with getting mini Pythor involved, and you know. The whole Garmadon death thing. He died an honorable death and all that, but... idk, I can't get past Lloyd's voice. As he reads him off I just couldn't stop giggling! It's so overdramatic, they feel like they need to make Lloyd mad at his dad for whatever reason so he can come back at the last second, and it all feels so forced. And then the ending is super overly cheesy for how serious the show wants to take itself at that moment. Idk. I don't like it. One of my least favorite finales.
Spotlight episode
There are some good ones to choose from this season. Some real good ones. But the one I find myself watching the most is Ninja Roll. This episode doesn't have too high stakes, it doesn't make much sense, it's kind of pointless, but it perfectly encapsulates the reason I watch Ninjago. I don't know exactly why I watch Ninjago. I'm not into the action most of the time. The romance is cute, but not potent enough to warrant watching the show. The humor isn't revolutionary, the characters aren't especially deep. No, the reason I watch Ninjago is cuz it's fun. Ninjago is just a good time. It has just enough of all of those aspects to make for something I love. It makes me smile. With seasons 8, and especially 9, Ninjago has shifted into this darker action based, lore-driven thing, which I thought I would like, and I do, but I think it's lost a bit of that fun factor. In my opinion, Ninjago is it's best when it's self-aware, and doesn't take itself overly seriously. When you don't have to end the season on an ominous dark cliffhanger. I mean really. What is this? Chima? No. I just want to go hang out with the ninja and the gang, whatever it is their doing. This episode takes advantage of every situation a roller derby with the ninja provides. Of course Jay roller skates with his mom. Of course, Kai is incompetent at it. Of course, Chen cheats, of course, it all comes down to Lloyd. Of course, there's freaking buggies that Chen releases! This whole episode makes me smile and laugh and it has a good message. This is what I miss about Ninjago, and that's why it's my spotlight.
Misc
I know everyone always teases Jay about his TV show, but what about Kai and his wrestling career? I just feel like that would come up more often
I completely subscribe to the theory that Pixal was scrapped to fix Zane cuz they beat him up so badly when capturing. I'd kinda like to think Pixal even volunteered herself for it... ONE SHOT IDEA
I have to scratch... my face.
I need a number on the trap door to button ratio on the island
This season has my favorite intro of any season. Mainly cuz the remix is FIRE and I hate the fact that they don't have an extended version that sounds more like the opening itself. 
So all together, the word to sum up season 4 is fun. Definitely not technically the best, or the smartest, or the most well done, but it's my favorite because of nostalgia, my inner child, and because it makes me smile. I love this season.
- Maya (Parachutingkitten)

Tumblr media
You saw NATASHA LIU BORDIZZO in London recently? It was actually BEATRICE LESTRANGE née MACMILLAN, the two share a resemblance. Apparently SHE is FOCUSED and LOYAL but can also be MISGUIDED and SELF-SERVING. They are TWENTY-FOUR and attended DURMSTRANG. The PUREBLOOD works as a JUNIOR UNSPEAKABLE for the DEPARTMENT OF MYSTERIES, lives in LONDON and is affiliated with NEITHER SIDE. (pat, 21+, pst, she/her).
the dark side of the moon, the indentation left by a wedding ring, vials of silver memories, scent of cologne, a mourning veil
[ content warning: blood, death, murder ]
Full Name: Beatrice An Lestrange née Macmillan - Beatrice was eager to take the name Lestrange, upon leaving school and officially marrying Marius. The match had been planned for a decade and a half to Marius Lestrange, from the French line of the family and distant cousin to the more infamous Rodolphus and Rabastan. While the name Beatrice might be a mouthful, only Marius was allowed to give her nicknames.
FC: Natasha Liu Bordizzo
Age: 24
School: Durmstrang Institute
House: I’m basing Durmstrang houses from on this headcanon! Beatrice eventually chose to study under the College of Theory. While her prospects didn’t require her to actively work, that didn’t mean she could go through this life uneducated. Had she been asked while she was in school, she would have answered that she intended to be an arithmancer, despite her father’s hope she would become a potioneer.
Country of Origin: Sweden. She’s fluent in Swedish, French, and English, and knows a little of German and Russian as required for her coursework (though this has been forgotten once she had left school). Her mother is fluent in Mandarin, but she didn’t pick it up. 
Current Place of Residence: Diagon Alley. She’s stuck at the Leaky Cauldron for now, trying to make arrangements for herself (though mostly trying to see if the long dead and imprisoned part of Marius’s family had better accommodations). Little does she know that the name Lestrange has some baggage with people around these parts, especially with a very unfortunate similarity of her name to a particularly loyal Death Eater. To her dismay, she may fare better with muggleborns--those who weren’t around with stories of those distant cousins. 
Please list any canon relatives:
Father: Ernie Macmillan
Mother: Chang An, cousin of Cho Chang, whose family resides in Sweden
Career: Right now, Beatrice has a job with the Department of Mysteries. However, she’s never been one you could call career-minded, so it may be more apt to talk about her abilities as opposed to her plans: 
Remote viewing - the practice of seeking impressions about a distant or unseen target. Beatrice had never cared much for using divination to see in the future--how could she, when there was no future without Marius? She has to prepare to do any sort of clairvoyant work and there's a fairly significant degree of ritual required. Beatrice needs to form a connection with an object, not in the soul/Horcrux sense, but definitely similar as far as the magical energies imbibed in that object. If she places that specific object in a location, then she can access "connection" so long as that object isn't destroyed. (For example, if she does her ritual with a picture frame, and she gives that picture frame to a friend, she can "access" that connection.) Beatrice isn’t able to "multitask", she can't hold conversation and "access" a connection at the same time; she's got to stay perfectly still and focused, in a meditative state.
Astral projection (or astral travel) is a term used in esotericism to describe an intentional out-of-body experience that assumes the existence of a soul or consciousness called an "astral body" that is separate from the physical body and capable of travelling outside it throughout the universe. A part of her interest in astral projection is a result of some of the sleep paralysis she suffers from after Marius died. Her body appears dead when she does astral projection; she's cold, there's no heartbeat, etc. and her body can't be moved otherwise she can't go back. Beatrice is definitely limited in how long she can astral project for, but this gets longer with practice (but up to an hour) and also depends on the environment too! The "colder" her environment is, the longer her physical body can stay that way; if done during a new moon or eclipse, she can go for longer (given than she’s done her rituals when the moon was full). 
Legilimency and Occlumency. Aside from having a telepathic connection to Marius, her sister-in-law had a certain penchant for memory charms, which led her to study this form of magic. Since her priorities have changed, Beatrice is a bit out of practice. This doesn’t mean she has forgotten how, but she’s selective about when she has to make the effort. 
Affiliation: Neutral, but she can go either way. I think that the factor that will push her one way or another is the information each group can offer as far as expanding her magical abilities. Her choice will be less about morals and more about resourcefulness. And regardless of which group she joins, she certainly has a lot to share, or perhaps even utilize as a possible spy, so there’s definitely value in having her around… for the right price. 
Significant Other: None. Her husband, Marius Lestrange, was murdered about a year ago, on their fifth anniversary. It would definitely take a special sort of person to convince her to move on, and she’s not particularly keen on the idea. 
Sexuality: Beatrice would identify as bisexual, though she doesn’t think it’s very important, not when she had been betrothed for so long, and especially not when she planned to live her life as a dutiful wife.
Any HC’s: See Labyrinthos for moon phase meanings.
Last Quarter - to cleanse and forgive. Ernie Macmillan’s life postwar involved a lot of travelling--especially in want of new knowledge of potioneering--was his means of recovering after the Second Wizarding War. As one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight, his family was well-acquainted with friends across the continent to help Ernie with his travels, finally meeting a branch of the Changs in Sweden. It was then that the scars of the Second War had truly begun to fade. Their connections and high ranking among wizarding societies had allowed them to travel frequently after they had married, though Beatrice had been born in Sweden. 
Solar Eclipse - a rebirth, a release from past cycles. Beatrice was raised differently than either of her parents had been, mainly in the travel between the family homes between both countries. Perhaps that was why she never really noticed how the Second Wizarding War affected her family; she had never stayed in Britain enough to notice what it was like to rebuild. She had been taught to behave, treating everyone with kindness and respect regardless of blood purity--but only in theory and less in practice. It was rarely that she had gone anywhere without some sort of chaperone to lead her to the proper places for someone like her to be. 
New Moon - to plan ahead. Both of her parents relied on the support systems of old family friends, which they had many across the globe by the virtue of old money and name recognition. And despite the Lestrange family’s infamy in the UK, their distant cousins in France still held a fair amount of wealth and respect from their allomancy business. As soon as the Lestrange family had offered to them an eligible bachelor, Beatrice had been promised. Not because it would contribute to her safety, but because the match had a significant effect on her present and future happiness. 
First Quarter - to take the first step. She and Marius were close friends from when they met, already entertaining the idea of marriage and playing at domesticity before their families had arranged the match. Beatrice often stayed with the Lestranges and learned how to be a proper lady with her soon-to-be sister-in-law, Vivienne. 
Waxing Crescent - to plant seeds. As much as she wanted to attend Beauxbatons with her future in-laws, her mother insisted that she would receive a much greater depth of education at Durmstrang. But for as progressive as the magical world had become in the last three decades, Durmstrang hadn’t changed much. While the school had begun to accept muggleborns, her course of study was limited because she was female. But that didn’t make learning the theory of spellcasting and forbidden magicks any less interesting--and she certainly gained a foundation in the Dark Arts. 
Waxing Gibbous - to make improvements and finalize a plan. Marius was a few years older than she was, though most of his time after he finished school involved visiting the Nordic regions often to see his future bride--and making wedding arrangements with her while she was still in school. Their wedding took place a week after she had finished her studies at Durmstrang, though she had been eager to have the ceremony as soon as she had come of age a year prior. Beatrice lived in a smaller house in France, not far from the original manor where she spent her time. Marius was only the second son of the Lestranges, so his share of fortune had been carefully parcelled out when he had been an infant--and Beatrice didn’t care much (considering she had some fortune of her own to inherit), so long as she had Marius. 
Full Moon - to celebrate achievement. Their life together was idyllic; they both focused further on their courses of study. Marius saw Beatrice as more than just a housewife; she was his equal. The two of them were trained Legilimens and Occlumens, often reading each other’s minds for practice. They tread into the realm of the Dark Arts more out of fascination for the possibilities it held. Marius worked with fiendfyre and Beatrice delved into clairvoyance and divination--particularly the kind that required a sacrifice. For how secretive they had been, perhaps someone had much more sinister intentions for the pair because of their work. 
Lunar Eclipse - a sudden change, a deep transformation. [content warning: blood, death, murder] During a celebration for their fifth anniversary, Beatrice woke to find herself covered in Marius’s blood and his body cold beside hers. The Lestrange family was helpful; Beatrice was family, they had known her for years, and the Macmillans and Changs were nothing less than respectable; there was no possibility she would have murdered Marius. The investigation is still open and Beatrice was still a suspect, but the family’s protection couldn’t extend outside of the house where the news spread fast and her reputation burned like the fiendfyre Marius tried to control. 
Waning Crescent - to rest and recuperate. She took what she had left from Marius and went to the United Kingdom where her father’s family lived. While she does feel more of an affinity for Sweden, having spent her formative years in the Scandanavian region while attending Durmstrang, it seemed a better idea to become reacquainted with family and to establish roots in a place that held very little memory to her. She didn’t want to go to a home that no longer felt like home, though little was she aware of the legacy her husband’s family had left behind.
Waning Gibbous - to look inwards. Beatrice found a position where her theoretical knowledge could turn into practical results: the Department of Mysteries. It was there she had found the resources to properly focus her magic. While she was busy actually working now, that didn’t mean she didn’t have her projects at home. She delved further into the Dark Arts for her own edification, but she longed to see Marius again, whether in flesh or in spirit. The memories in her pensieve were no longer enough. She was determined to do whatever it takes.

opinion on mexican/hispanic york? what about donut?
ohh! i like it a lot! york kinda looks a bit like people in my family, as in he has similar features to some of us (except like.. his nose?? lol) tho they’re colombian and not mexican ahah, but i do feel him being latino/hispanic or of  that descent would fit really well for him!!
im also a Big Fan of latino donut. like im pretty vague about my fcs bc im still tryin to figure them out and am still working on lookin up ref pics to base fcs on (tho i do have one for donut ehehe) but i do kinda like the idea of donut bein like, some kind of latino descent as well, but maybe only on one side of his fam? or both, could be whatever. then hes got that whole thing about trying his best (??) to speak spanish, but hes just so Bad At It. it’s sweet thinkin about not only is he trying to communicate to people in their native language, but maybe he’d also be trying to keep his heritage alive :”) a lot of ppl tend to write mixed race characters as perfectly bilingual, and while that’s WONDERFUL and ppl should absolutely continue to do that, i feel like sometimes people forget that like, not everyone is  gonna be totally traditional and perfectly in touch w/every aspect to their heritage culture. mixing it up a bit is fun! (granted, a lot of that is probs me Projecting, and should be taken with a grain of salt lol) (not actually trying to make any kind of Point, just sayin some thoughts)
but also, that reminds me of that one line where donut and lopez were working the armory and lopez said something, and donut’s like “forgive him! it’s his firey latin temper!” it’d be a fun hc to think of that as donut bein like, ‘pshh my family’s totally like this too, sorry about him, we’’re just INTENSE ;0″ and that changes it from being sorta rude to “same, dude” (tho it doesnt seem totally ooc for donut to be a lil rude from ignorance lol) 
but also (and again a lot of this is just based off my own family/self and a few friends), both donut and york seem to have pretty Strong Personalities and are pretty talkative, and while of course that’s not a thing you have to be to be latinx ;p, it does kinda fit in with the cultural aspect 
but yea bein latina myself i quite enjoy latinx headcanons in general as long as theyre done in good taste

And now, Coastal Carolina’s FBS era begins in earnest
Tumblr media
Jamey Chadwell officially takes the reins from Joe Moglia, and the Chanticleers begin looking for ways to stand out in the Sun Belt.
Bill C’s annual preview series of every FBS team in college football continues. Catch up here!
The Joe Moglia Story was just missing another win or two.
By now, you probably know the structure of the story pretty well: Ivy League assistant quits coaching in the early-1980s, leaves to work for Merrill Lynch, then makes infinity dollars as CEO of TD Ameritrade.
Finding he’s got the itch to coach again, and not needing the money, he volunteers on Bo Pelini’s Nebraska staff for a year, briefly coaches in the UFL, and then finds that Coastal Carolina is somehow willing to make him its head coach. He quickly builds a top-10 FCS program, then Coastal makes the jump to FBS. Only, he misses the Chanticleers’ debut season to fight cancer. He returns in 2018 for what turns out to be his final season on the sidelines.
It was one of the stranger, more redeeming stories you’ll ever see for a Wall Street millionaire/billionaire, and it deserved a bowl at the end of it. With Coastal heading into November at 5-3, that appeared likely. But the Chants lost their final four games, losing to maybe the Sun Belt’s three best teams at home and then slipping up, 31-28, at South Alabama in Mobile. Moglia retired and handed the reins back to Jamey Chadwell, his offensive coordinator and 2017 interim head coach.
Well, he sort of retired. Moglia is still listed on CCU’s Coaching Staff page. His title: “Chairman of Athletics / Executive Director for Football / Executive Advisor to the President.”
Once a CEO, always a CEO.
Anyway, Chadwell is technically in charge now. And he’s got a pretty unique story himself; at least, he does as much as anyone can next to Moglia.
Still only in his early 40s, Chadwell’s already on his fourth head coaching gig. He led North Greenville for three seasons, taking the Crusaders to the Division II quarterfinals in 2011, and after a year at Delta State, he jumped to Charleston Southern in 2013. His Buccaneers twice made the FCS playoffs, including a quarterfinal run in 2015, before he joined Moglia and Coastal right before their FBS jump in 2017.
Chadwell knows the head coaching role, and he knows the Myrtle Beach area. (CCU is basically about 15 minutes from the Atlantic Ocean.) The timing has been odd since he took the job — immediately go from OC to Interim Head Coach, back to OC, then back to Non-Interim HC, all within two years — but he could be well-suited for the role all the same.
He’s got some work to do. Coastal was pretty good offensively last year but has to replace its leading quarterback, its most frequent ball-carrier, its leading receiver, and the right side of its line. The defense is experienced, but, well, the defense was terrible last year.
The offense will still have to carry a good amount of weight, but it might do so. Two sophomore quarterbacks — Fred Payton and Bryce Carpenter — each outperformed outgoing senior Kilton Anderson when given the opportunity, junior running back CJ Marable averaged 6.2 yards per carry as basically a co-starter with Marcus Outlow, and the receiving corps is loaded with underclassmen with potential.
(Unfortunately, said receiving corps is without rugby wunderkind Tyrese Johnson-Fisher — rugby highlights here — who attempted to transition to football and redshirted last year, then apparently put his name in the Transfer Portal in February, as did a few starters and potential starters.)
Without Moglia (or Johnson-Fisher, for that matter), Coastal’s story is a little bit less unique now; the Chants are now a lot more like every other recent FCS program attempting to carve out an FBS niche. But that doesn’t mean they can’t fare well at some point.

Offense
Tumblr media
The defense’s collapse prevented a bowl bid, which prevented us from more clearly noticing just how much the offense improved last year. The Chants jumped from 104th to 77th in Off. S&P+, combining solid run explosiveness (48th in Rushing S&P+) with pass efficiency (26th in passing marginal efficiency despite a horrid sack rate).
They possessed a unique mix of efficiency and inefficiency, and three different QBs played between seven and nine games, but it worked for a while. Coastal averaged 31.5 points per game during its 5-3 start and hung 47 on an excellent UAB offense early in the season.
Anderson dealt with an ankle injury for much of the season and eventually missed time, and then Carpenter injured his knee as well. Payton threw the ball well against the best of the Sun Belt late in the year, but the run game dried up a bit, and the struggling defense made sure that any drive failures put the game out of reach.

CJ Marable
Despite transfers, the competition level should be pretty high in each unit.
Carpenter and Payton will fight it out at QB this spring. Carpenter was the more willing and efficient runner of the duo (not an unimportant thing considering the run-first nature of last year’s attack), but he also took a staggering 14 sacks in 69 pass attempts, which meant that he averaged two fewer yards per attempt than Payton (who also took a few too many) despite a higher completion rate. The winner of the battle might be determined as much by preferred playing style as on-field quality.
At RB, Outlow graduated and third-stringer Alex James transferred, but Marable and Jacqez Hairston, both juniors, were the two most productive backs per-carry — Marable averaged 6.2 yards per carry with a 53 percent success rate, Hairston 10.7 and 67 percent, albeit over just 12 rushes. Incoming freshman Reese White was one of the stars of the 2019 recruiting haul, too.
Coastal loses No. 1 WR Malcolm Williams (47 catches, 724 yards) but returns everyone else and adds speedy Virginia Tech transfer Samuel Denmark. Senior Ky’Jon Tyler combines a slot receiver’s efficiency (74 percent catch rate) with an X-receiver’s downfield ability (15.3 yards per catch), sophomores Jaivon Heiligh and Jeremiah Miller combined for 35 catches, and sophomore tight end was a red zone threat, with five of his 12 catches resulting in scores. Add three three-star redshirt freshmen (two TEs and a WR), a three-star true freshman, and Denmark, and you’ve got nice potential depth. Marable (15 catches for 180 yards) is a threat out of the backfield, too.
The line took a hit when right guard Brock Hoffman transferred, but the Chants still have center Trey Carter and left tackle Steven Bedosky, and they played a pretty broad rotation last year. Sophomores Seth Harrell and Antwine Loper could be ready for extensive playing time.
Tumblr media
Brian Westerholt-USA TODAY Sports
Jeremiah Miller
With Chadwell taking on a higher role, he promoted quarterbacks coach Willy Korn (yes, the former Clemson blue-chipper) and running backs coach Newland Isaac, an assistant at all three of Chadwell’s head coaching stops, to co-coordinator roles.
We’ll see if the identity changes at all. Coastal ran the ball 71 percent of the time on standard downs last year (13th-highest in FBS) and 38 percent on passing downs (43rd), which isn’t surprising, as Chadwell’s always been a run-heavy guy. But the Chants didn’t really spread opponents out (75th in solo tackles forced) and operated at one of the slowest tempos in the country. When you’ve got a defense struggling as mightily as Coastal’s did, playing at a slow pace is probably a good idea — it limits your exposure — but if the D improves, maybe the tempo goes up in turn?
Tumblr media
Defense
Tumblr media
Marvin Sanders’ first year in Conway could have gone better. The former North Carolina defensive coordinator, who got to know Moglia back at Nebraska, came to town with probably the best résumé on the staff, but he struggled to come up with answers for a defense hit pretty hard by attrition.
The front seven was extremely young, and the experienced unit, the secondary, got wrecked by injury. Eight defensive backs made more than 10 tackles, but only one played in all 12 games. Three freshmen — corner Derick Bush and safeties Brayden Matts and Alex Spillum — got extensive playing time, and that’s usually not good.
The pass defense was still better than the run defense, but neither were good. The Chants rushed the passer pretty well when they had the rare opportunity to (58th in sack rate), and they got better in the red zone, allowing 4.7 points per scoring opportunity, 85th in FBS. But in ranking 103rd in Passing S&P+ and 128th in Rushing S&P+, their red zone defense certainly got plenty of practice.

Tarron Jackson (9)
End Jeffrey Gunter and his 14 tackles for loss are gone, but most of Coastal’s other havoc-friendly players are back in the front seven. That includes junior Tarron Jackson (11 TFLs and a team-leading 18 run stuffs), junior linebackers Teddy Gallagher and Silas Kelly, and tackle Sterling Johnson.
The size up front is solid, though Jackson is very much the only known entity at end.
Tumblr media

Silas Kelly
The good news for the secondary is that while five of the 10 leading tacklers are gone, most of the right ones return. Matts and Spillum were probably as good as any of the safeties, and senior corner Mallory Claybourne, the steadiest of the corners, is back. Depth is an obvious concern, but perhaps a couple of youngsters can help solve that problem. A lot of CCU’s more recent star recruits — redshirt freshman safety Cincir Evans, incoming freshmen Coleman Reich and KJ Johnson II — are DBs.
Beyond that, the only other good news here is that the bar is low.
One assumes that with his experience under both Bo Pelini and John Bunting, Sanders wants to get aggressive if he can, but he had limited opportunities to do so. Coastal should be able to rush the passer again in 2019, but that will only matter if a) the Chants can keep the right secondary on the field and b) they can figure out how to be a little less terrible in run defense.
Tumblr media
Special Teams
The legs were assets for Coastal in 2018. Freshman place-kicker Massimo Biscardi ranked 33rd in FG efficiency, and sophomore punter Charles Ouverson averaged 43.1 yards and ranked 56th in punt efficiency.
Granted, coverage was an issue on both punts and (especially) kickoffs, and Ky’Jon Tyler’s returns, though dangerous, were pretty inconsistent. Still, Coastal ranked 58th in Special Teams S&P+ and, with everyone back, should have a good opportunity to exceed that ranking this fall. This should be one of the best special teams units in the Sun Belt.
2019 outlook
2019 Schedule & Projection Factors
Date Opponent Proj. S&P+ Rk Proj. Margin Win Probability 31-Aug Eastern Michigan 96 -6.6 35% 7-Sep at Kansas 107 -6.0 36% 14-Sep Norfolk State NR 26.4 94% 21-Sep at Massachusetts 125 1.9 54% 28-Sep at Appalachian State 31 -28.5 5% 12-Oct Georgia State 114 2.1 55% 19-Oct at Georgia Southern 81 -16.6 17% 2-Nov Troy 69 -14.4 20% 7-Nov UL-Lafayette 99 -5.9 37% 16-Nov at Arkansas State 70 -19.1 14% 23-Nov at UL-Monroe 103 -9.2 30% 30-Nov Texas State 102 -4.3 40%
Projected S&P+ Rk 116 Proj. Off. / Def. Rk 79 / 127 Projected wins 4.4 Five-Year S&P+ Rk -16.2 (124) 2- and 5-Year Recruiting Rk 129 2018 TO Margin / Adj. TO Margin* -6 / -4.7 2018 TO Luck/Game -0.5 Returning Production (Off. / Def.) 68% (63%, 73%) 2018 Second-order wins (difference) 3.5 (1.5)
So now Coastal attempts to settle in a bit. The Chants’ first two seasons at the FBS level have been full of transition, un-transition, and re-transition, and the product on the field has been limited by injury and inexperience.
The offensive upside here is obvious, but defense remains the obvious question mark: Coastal is projected 79th in Off. S&P+ but 127th in Def. S&P+. The makes the Chanticleers 116th overall, but thanks to a schedule with eight opponents projected 96th or worse (five of which have to visit CCU), a bowl run isn’t completely out of reach. There are five likely losses, one likely win, and six games projected within a touchdown. If Coastal can upset either EMU or Kansas early in the season, a 4-2 start isn’t out of the question.
More likely, though, is that this simply becomes the year in which Coastal attains some level of stability and begins building in earnest. Chadwick’s got a lot of sophomores around which to build, but that might not result in any major breakthrough for another year or two.
Moglia’s back story and building job were fascinating, but now it’s on Chadwick to start pushing the boulder forward.

☠ ♥ ♦ ♢ ✮☄ ☯ ☀ ☁ ☂ ☢ ☣ ❀ ✧❥ ❦ ❧ ✖ ♒❣
☠ What does someone have to do for an instant unfollow from you?
Start public shit on my dash. I literally cannot handle it. I don’t want to be involved. I don’t want to see it. I’ve been a part of it before. I’ve screwed up and started it myself before, and at this time in my life I’m avoiding it like the plague.
 ♥What's the WORST thing that has happened to you rp wise?
Oh my god. Uhhhhh. Wow so okay the thing I actually regret rp wise is losing one of my favorite partners due to something really stupid that could have been handled WAY better on both sides but it’s really helped me to handle things better as a person. Still, I regret losing that person as an RP partner, and I probably always will. 
♦ What was a mildly annoying thing that has happened to you rp wise?
I mean the really big thing that messes with me is because of character bleed. When people just leave Atem. It really messes him up. Or when any relationship he’s in just ends. It’s like he has no closure and it messes with me to have to deal with his pining ass. 
♢ Has anyone ever tried to steal your blog? Your headcanons? Icons? All that jazz
In short Yes. I’ve been around possibly the longest at the point and I’ve seen a lot of my hcs migrate to other Yami/Atem blogs, but it doesn’t bother me. I’m flattered, besides most of them aren’t so far fetched that people couldn’t come up with them on their own. I will however flip shit over my icons Masaya90 made them for me as a commission and I will absolutely fight someone over them, but you know how I feel about stolen art anyways
✮ Have you managed to stay away from drama?
AHAHAHAHAHAHA. I’m sorry give me a moment. Honestly yes. Other than the drama I have caused for myself in the past? All and all I am very careful about who I interact with. I just don’t deal with it. I ignore the “discourse” and just do what I’m here to do. That’s all I can do. 
☄ Have you ever been in the middle of drama?
Yes. I have been in the middle. And I’ve handled being in the middle badly, and I’ve tried my best to rectify my mistakes which is all anyone can do. I’ve made amends to the people I feel like I needed to make amends to and as a general rule I just ignore drama altogether now. 
☯ Have you ever tried to bring peace to a situation?
I have. Sometimes I succeed, others I have failed miserably. I’ll tell you this. I will generally always try to bring peace to things. I don’t like being at odds with anyone. It’s too much work and I’m too lazy to hold a grudge. 
☀ What's your rp pet peeve?
Oh this is a tie, between people just putting Atem in a situation he would NEVER be in, in a starter (without discussing it with me prior) or people who don’t cut their posts and use mobile as an excuse. I am on mobile some times and I just make a new post and mention my rp partner in it so we don’t clog the dash. It’s not rocket surgery. 
☁ Have you ever forgiven a partner when you shouldn't have?
I don’t think so mainly because if two people can work through something I think they should. I used to not think that but I’ve learned a lot and some times people just fuck up you know? So no. I don’t think I’ve ever forgiven someone when I shouldn’t have because everyone deserves another chance. 
☂ Have you ever been forgiven when you knew you shouldn't have been?
Again, see post above
☢ What fads/trends are you so over?
CONTAINER BLOGS!!!!!!!!! Seriously, I have fucking unfollowed people for this shit. I understand that you want your blog to be pretty, but holy shit. Just font that’s a size 7 and I have to blow up the page like 9 times in order to read anything and most of them have the practically non existent scroll bar and AUTO PLAY fucking terrifies me. Like just please know every time I have to go on your blog and music starts out of no where you are giving me a HEART ATTACK. Just I know you think it looks pretty but before you decide on the things like that go on your blog and look at it. USE it. User friendly is a REALLY important thing guys. 
☣ Have you ever rp'd with someone you knew for a fact was abusive but tried to give them a chance/to make up your own opinion on the roleplayer? Did they change or did you understand what people were talking about?
Due to past personal experiences I like to make up my own mind about people. Honestly the best relationship came from that. Making up my own mind. A lot of really good friendships have come from that so yes, I always try to give people a chance no matter what I’ve heard, because what you hear is probably only half of the truth to being with. 
❀ What has made you completely lose your chill?
People being shitty to others on the dash publicly. And yes before anyone points a finger, I have been in on that once and it was an awful stupid idea. It doesn’t help anything. It literally doesn’t. Tearing someone up in public makes you look like a giant asshole. We have Inboxes and IM systems and a plethora of other social media so if you have an issue with someone you can talk to them like they are a person and explain your grievance and if it’s THAT big of a deal just unfollow them and block them if you need to, but there’s no reason to be Captain Asshole on the dash. No one really wants to see it and it makes everyone’s experience really uncomfortable so bottom line? Just don’t call people out publicly. 
✧ Do you agree with reblog karma or is it forced interaction?
I’m up in the air with this. I have WAY too many followers and it’s extremely frustrating to reblog a meme get 30 reblogs off said meme and get literally not one thing in my inbox from said meme. But I remind myself timezones, and maybe people don’t feel like that will work for our muses but here’s the really easy thing that you can do if that’s the case. REBLOG FROM THE SOURCE. Then people don’t get the hit that basically looks like “I don’t WANT to interact with you.” and it makes everyones lives a little better. But I REALLY support sending memes in. I have days where I will just make a post that is MEME HOUR which is if you post a meme as long as I think Atem would be down, I will send you in an ask for it. It’s really fun and it makes up for the times when I’m not on to spam peoples assboxes. 
❥ Has someone ever ruined an FC or character for you? 
Honestly someone has ruined every character for me at one time or another lol but FC I’ve got a good one. Now it wasn’t from RP but Gina Torres who is one of the prettiest people imho was RUINED for me by the show Angel. Because (SPOILER ALERT) She’s a giant pile of maggots okay? And she’s in some of my fave shows: Firely, Any Day Now, Suits. But I cannot unsee her face on Angel. She just shows up in shit and I scream. She popped up on Criminal Minds once and I just shut it off. She’s in Hannibal and I REALLY want to watch that. DAMMIT. 
❦ Has someone been jealous of you? 
Maybe, but I wouldn’t know why...I mean I’m just me. Oh! Maybe when I go to cons and meet awesome people? I’d be jealous of me then too. 
❧ Have you ever been jealous of anyone? 
Yes. There are people I get jealous of. People who get more interaction, people who are here all the time, people who are in a better time zone. So yeah, happens. 
✖ How has Tumblr RP changed since you started?
Like I said before, I think I have been here longer than most in this fandom at least the rp side and HOO BOY, things have changed a lot. Remember when we had to tag a post on the side? Remember when Missing E was the extension we all had? No? That’s because I’ve been here forever. Before this I was in the SPN fandom. So yeah. I feel like I’ve stuck around a lot longer than a lot of people. What kills me is that things have changed but not really improved? When are we going to be able to lock a post so people’s art can’t be stolen? When are we going to be able to delete a post and all clones of that post are deleted as well so someone who made a mistake 6 years ago and LEARNED from it doesn’t have to wake up with hate in their inbox every morning? 
♒ Thoughts on the fandom you're currently rping in?
I actually really love both the fandoms I’m in right now, though both have some issues. Voltron is fucking unhinged about some shit I won’t get into because no one really cares in this fandom but HOO BOY I’m glad we don’t have that here because we literally have the same thing going on here. HA! I just thought of that. But yeah age gaps man. Just fuck everything about it. Okay done ranting about this before I get my first hate mail
❣ How salty are you feeling right now?
Ask Sophie she’s had to listen to me rant for the last hour about everything on this list. I just screamed about the SPN fandom confusing reality with porn for 20 minutes and then the Josh Keaton thing with his kids so yeah, pretty fucking salty that people can’t just get the fuck along.

You mentioned that Alex will have a spin off in mm and there will be other fics in that verse, so how many are there and what are they about?
Good question anon! So right now there are, excluding MM, there are three fics in the MMverse (also called Earth-548, not to be confused with Earth-TRN548, which according to the Marvel wiki does exist, but is apparently empty.)
Those fics are:
1. Currently untitled CA:TFA fic
I’m still finding a suitably fairy-tale-ish name for this story, but basically, this is the fic that centers on Galina Kovaleva. She’s part of the Howling Commandos (she was made purely out of spite too like someone said there can’t be a female HC because of ~The Times so obviously I was immediately like “time to make a female howling commando!” Anyway she’s Russian and the Soviet Union actually did have women in combat during WW2 so there’s that.)
Anyways!! This fic is gen (mostly, she has a kind of “in another life, maybe” thing with Bucky, but mostly it’s just her and the howling commandos in general) and it goes through CA:TFA and possibly Agent Carter, depending on how I feel about it and if it works when I finally get around to watching AC. 
Anyway, Galina (also called “Kova,” bc most of the other HCs have nicknames or go by their last names in the field and Galina wanted to too bc she doesn’t wanna be treated differently (she’s understandably got kind of a chip on her shoulder) but her name is so long it gets shortened to Kova) is played by either Yuliya Snigir or Alexa Davalos, I haven’t decided yet. 
2. Currently untitled AoS fic
Again, I’m still deciding on a title for this, but this one focuses on Vira Kovaleva, Galina’s granddaughter. I talked about her here but basically she’s a SHIELD psychiatrist who gets assigned to Team Bus to monitor Coulson’s post-TAHITI mental health. She’s shipped with Trip, who doesn’t die, because this is a fix-it fic and I’m gonna fix everything that pissed me off about AoS, including but not limited to:
narrative & character treatment of Ward (this fic features a redemption arc)
bad follow-up on the effects of TAHITI
s2 ruining or killing literally every single character I cared about in s1
the status quo that was disrupted in CA:TWS being immediately reset (this was a problem in the movies as well, and is something that I also handle in MM)
continuing dissonance from the great MCU, of which the show is still a part in name only
re: that last bullet point, this fic crosses over with MM very significantly in between CA:TWS and A:AOU. 
Some other notes:
In that post I linked to, I said that Vira’s fc is Olga Fonda, but I’ve long since changed it to Gal Gadot
I also said that Alex would be in that fic, but I’ve since changed my mind. Alex, as you mentioned, gets her own spin-off, which I’ll talk about in a second. 
The first time we meet Vira and Galina in MM, it’s in between Avengers and the Tokyo arc, during a Howling Commandos “family reunion” as it were. 
3. Out of the Woods
This one is Alex’s spin-off, although you could also argue that it’s Alex and Natasha’s spin-off. It spins offs the end of CA:TWS. During that arc in MM, Alex escapes SHIELD custody, while Natasha learns that Alex exists. Nat goes off to recover her memories and find Alex. Alex does not particularly want to be found. 
The fic is about Nat and Alex reconnecting, and in particular Alex healing from her past, but there are also ships involved. Nat is either shipped with Bruce (with more development than they had in canon, bc I like them in theory but for me there wasn’t enough build-up for them being canon) or an OFC or both, and Alex is shipped with an OMC and then later either with Loki or Pietro. More on this:
I’m basically waiting to see how Thor 3 and A:IW go before I commit to either one, because I want to know which one will dovetail best with canon/whatever I decide to do with canon in MM. 
Whichever ship isn’t canon gets an AU where they are (bc I have ideas for both ships and I don’t wanna waste them)
If I go with Lolex then Pietro dies and he and Alex have another “in another life where things were different” thing
If I go with Pietro/Alex (still deciding on a ship name, I like “quickfrost” but its already taken, ironically by by Loki/Pietro, rip in peace) then he obviously does not die
The title was chosen because of the Red Riding Hood implications (fits the fairy-tale theme and also reminds me of Nat’s line in the comics about girls in the woods, the one I currently have as my blog title) and also because of the Taylor Swift song, which imo really fits Nat and Alex’s relationship in this story. 
I feel like there was more I wanted to say about this, but I can’t remember. But yeah, that’s OotW and as always Alex is played by Karlie Kloss. 
And that is currently all the MM spin-offs that exist! Thank you for asking

THIS WEEK IN SCHADENFREUDE, Tennessee and LSU have both reached the “GoFundMe to pay the coach’s buyout” stage of the season
Your weekly search of the college football internet’s strongest reactions centers on two SEC fan bases.
There is losing.
There is losing to your rival.
There is losing to your rival 41-0.
There is losing to your rival 41-0 at home.
Then there is losing to your rival 41-0 at home one week after almost losing at home to UMass, two weeks after losing because you didn’t have enough defensive backs on the field, and all in front of your fans who call for your coach’s firing even during victories.
The 2017 Tennessee Volunteers, everybody!
Let’s see how some Vols fans across the internet responded to the loss.
We start our travels at the VolNation.com message boards.
Mere weeks ago, some thought athletic director John Currie had hatched a plot to relieve Butch Jones of his duties and replace him with ex-coach Phillip Fulmer. There’s still a fear (or a hope?) that Fulmer, now 67 and an AD assistant will return:
VolNation.com
Someone’s got a more practical idea, obviously:
Do whatever it takes to get Gruden !!!! This was embarrassing
We have to much talent to be losing this badly ... especially at home
Jon Gruden’s turned down the Tennessee job at least three times since 2008.
I agree. Whether it is Gruden or Chip Kelly, or Bobby Petrino, or Mike Leach...take a blank check and make them say no.
I'd still love to see Gruden here. He's clearly a smart coach, great offensive mind, great QB mind. He relates with kids as he has shown on his QB camp shows. I have to imagine he'd be a great recruiter, the question is whether he'd put in the time? He has connections to build a great staff. He wouldn't coach scared. The booth is always there for him to return to.
Why not make a run at him?
Another poster wants to hire the 32-year-old head coach at FCS Austin Peay, which recently snapped a 29-game losing streak:
Bring in Will Healy
Smart young coach on a roll. What could go wrong??
Someone started a thread that was designed purely as a repository for Tennessee fans’ freshest Butch Jones jokes. The original post:
Well, this game is awful. I would usually be ticked off and screaming at the television. Unfortunately, apathy is beginning to set in. In the midst of my boredom, I've created a list of bad Butch Jones jokes. Feel free to add to this list or burn me at the stake.
Butch Jones should be a spokesperson for a vacuum company... He sucks!
Butch Jones likes the yellow starbursts
Butch Jones' mom is disappointed in him and doesn't think he's handsome
Butch Jones pees sitting down
Butch Jones knits blankets for Christmas gifts
Butch Jones drives a Toyota Tercel
Butch Jones vacations in Muncy, Indiana.
Butch Jones thinks the band is underappreciated
Butch Jones wrote the book, Football for Dummies.
Butch Jones owns one book, Football for Dummies.
Butch Jones can't read or write
Butch Jones flies kites every afternoon
Butch Jones thinks the word infallible means sucks
Some of my favorite reader submissions:
“Butch Jones skis in jeans.”
“Butch Jones has a Blockbuster card.”
Someone else proposes everyone go to the next home game dressed in protest gear.
I think fans going to the games should wear black to show their displeasure in Butch and continue to wear black until he is fired. You can still support the team and wear the gear but seeing a stadium that is normally full of orange blacked out sends a loud and clear message.
Let’s stroll on over to Twitter just see what we find, shall we?
This is an idea of how many people have changed their Twitter names — not just tweeted, mind you, but actually changed their names — to FIRE BUTCH JONES:
(This may not be an exhaustive list.)
In Nashville, the trending topics right after the game:
This is a bit of a “choose your own adventure” game, but I’m going down the “Neyland Stadium” rabbit hole first.
A note for the athletic director from Pastor James:

Separately, one gentleman had a proposal:
I will post nudes on twitter if Butch Jones is fired this weekend.

Let’s just camp in Butch Jones’ mentions for a minute.

Fuck Butch Jones. Fuck this ‘excuses’ program he has sold our fan base. Fuck you and your trash ‘ecosystem’ that you push. @UTCoachJones

Last week, Jones went on a weird rant directed at local media. Therefore:
@UTCoachJones god damn media

Let’s make a super brief stop at UT’s 247Sports board.
Even Vol Nation’s children apparently offer no mercy.
My daughter just came up to me
And said that Tennessee is trash. I couldn't disagree.
And also at the school’s Scout board.
When is butch getting fired i denounce him as coach
Im not watching another game until he is gone period
Once you’ve been denounced, there’s no way back.
These aren’t even from the internet, but you should see them.

Did anyone propose hiring Les Miles yet?
Yes.

Fire Butch Hire Les Problem solved
Posted by Brad Boles on Saturday, September 30, 2017
Did anyone start a GoFundMe yet to pay Jones’ buyout?
Also yes.
Are people actually going to spend money on that?
It’s possible.
Has anyone called for failed Michigan head coach Brady Hoke, UT’s DL coach, to take over? Via a Rocky Top Talk commenter:
Fire him now. Promote Hoak to interim HC, and start the search.
Has anyone suggested the Vols hire FAU coach Lane Kiffin, the man who once left them in the middle of the night to take the head coaching job at USC and has now found himself running a middling Conference USA team at 42?
Hey @Lane_Kiffin after your games over you think you could head on to Knoxville to take over for Butch or naw? #firebutch
— Scott (@msallen22) October 1, 2017
Hey @Lane_Kiffin there is a job opening up on rocky top. You interested?
— DAT Way (@cable18) October 1, 2017
At this point, I’ll take Lane Kiffin back please. #VolTwitter

Are these people kidding?
Quite possibly. But when things are this dark, never assume someone’s joking.
Also, LSU lost to Troy.
There is losing.
There is losing at home.
There is losing at home to a team from the Sun Belt.
And there is losing at home to a team from the Sun Belt in the fifth game of your new head coach’s five-year contract, which carries a $12 million buyout.
We now visit with some Tigers fans to take their temperature.
First things first: Yes, there’s also a GoFundMe to buy out Ed Orgeron.
On Sunday evening at 6 p.m. ET, it had raised a fraction of a fraction of a percentage point of the money that’d be needed to pay Orgeron’s walking-away money.
At TigerDroppings.com, posters are plotting AD Joe Alleva’s demise.
In these sharply political times, grassroots activism is more important than ever. Whether you’re fighting for affordable healthcare or trying to get your school to fire its athletic director after a bad loss, real change happens on the ground.
Email addresses if you're interested in taking action
Michigan fans rallied (Fire Dave Brandon Rally) and got their AD ousted. Nebraska fired their AD within days of losing to Northern Illinois earlier this season (Nebraska ousts AD after embarassing loss).
Why can't we as a fanbase get Alleva and F.Kingremoved? It's well-documented that termination of both is completely warranted and way past overdue. These two gentleman have single-handedly made LSU a national laughing-stock. This is a $150 million per year organization and there must be accountability.
Things you can do to help: -Stop auto contribution to TAF today or Monday (I recommend email stopping contributions with CC to board members below) -Email the board as much as your time allows -Do not attend upcoming home games -Do not buy another piece of LSU merchandise -Talk to your powerful friends and legislators and put the BOS on notice -Keep pressure on the media to ask the tough questions and demand accountability for this $150 million per year revenue organization that is LSU athletics -If you know the governor, tell him his job is on the line too and he better stay out of our way -If you know the LSU BOS members, put them on notice that investigations of ethical violations and conflicts of interest are coming on them as individuals
Another way to get the regime out, per one poster: Have one of Louisiana’s smaller schools step in for the good of LSU.
Time for a state school to help LSU out
Get one of them like ULL or Nicholls to offer him the AD and head coaching job and strongly encourage him to accept it. Give whichever school hires him whatever they want. LSU can agree to play at their stadium for a few years.
Of course this is after Alleva is fired.
Infighting’s rampant on message boards, especially after a brutal loss.
This is a thing that happens. It’s also the time to delineate who’s a TRUE FAN and who’s not.
Check in here if you're a true fan
These are the times where people truly prove their fan-hood. I'm very upset and angry right now, but I'll never leave my Tigers. Check in if you'll be here during these dark days.
I bring that up just to share the first reply:
Just here for the downvote
At And the Valley Shook!, the discourse was largely reasonable. This comment is important to note ...
At least Florida had the foresight to schedule us for their homecoming
... because it came in response to this:
Hey @LSU, thanks for having us down for homecoming! We really enjoyed it!
— Troy University (@TROYUnews) October 1, 2017
The folks at R/LSUFootball had good sense of humor about all of this.
Someone brought up the plight of fans of another Louisianan football program: the South Central Louisiana State University Mud Dogs, from The Waterboy.
How I felt before drinking my sorrows away
Here is the problem for LSU: It doesn’t have Bobby Boucher.
Also, someone posted this:
One person did start a thread simply titled, “Calm the fuck down.”
This is college football, and that’s never going to happen.

THIS WEEK IN SCHADENFREUDE, where Tennessee must replace Butch Jones with the coach from ‘Last Chance U’
In this weekly tour of the unhappiest parts of the college football internet, let’s visit six fanbases after Week 3.
After the first two weeks of this college football season, we took deep dives into the internet DEFCON situations among two fanbases: Texas A&M’s after a 34-point lead became a loss at UCLA, and Ohio State’s after falling in grisly fashion to Oklahoma.
Those teams felt like obvious picks. Week 3 has a bevy of competitive candidates, so it’s a good time to spread some wealth. Let’s take a ride through some of the most extraordinary fan reactions from Saturday’s games.
Nebraska
Lost to Northern Illinois at home, the Huskers’ first loss ever to a MAC team, mere days after announcing an extension for head coach Mike Riley.
Larry the Cable Guy is fed up to the point that he’s suggesting Nebraska should replace Riley with a coach from the University of Nebraska .... Omaha.
Somebody call Trev Alberts down from UNO and see if he can help out! Ugh.. Sorry but I'm just like most Husker fans. I'm venting.
— Larry The Cable Guy (@GitRDoneLarry) September 16, 2017
There’s a lot more there by Larry.
Let’s hop to r/Huskers on Reddit.
One Redditor has an outside-the-box name for a new athletic director.
Thread: Les Miles for AD?
Les Miles and Mike Riley together sound like a hell of a combo. If Riley doesn't work out after another year or two, give Les the money and power to hire the best coach available at the time.
Thoughts?
Miles’ son, Ben, is a fullback for Nebraska. Done deal. Put it on the board.
Nebraska opened as a 10-point favorite against Rutgers. Another Redditor asked:
What? Why?
The mood at the school’s Rivals message board was not happy.
Thread: At least we have volleyball
You don't see them losing to small directional state schools.
Perhaps the most morbid thing anyone said:
Thread: Internet, Cell Phones, Social Media and TV killed Nebraska
In the old days when Nebraska was great, there was no internet, cell phone and very few TV channels.
Today young kids can text beautiful photos of the beaches of Florida to communicating with other prospects via text to Facebook. In the old days they could not and they did not have the Elite 11 or travel.
My point is this. Nobody knew or could see how boring the state is and being in a state like Nebraska where your recruiting is 100 miles behind Florida or Texas your screwed. Nebraska's only chance to get to that Top 5 Level on a consistent basis is to land a Pete Carrol, Nick Saban, Urban Meyer or Jimbo Fisher type of coach . Technology killed the good old days
Louisville
Got obliterated at home against Clemson.
To the Scout message board, the Card March!
Thread: Maybe we should have stayed in the AAC.
There’s also a brief thread calling for Heisman-winning quarterback Lamar Jackson to get benched in favor of redshirt freshman Jawon Pass, who — to be fair — does have one of the best quarterback names of all-time.
At 247Sports, one fan called for former Bobby Petrino assistant Jeff Brohm — who’s coached all of three games at Purdue — to take Petrino’s place at the helm.
Thread: Ready for the 'Brohm Era'.
Thanks for the great memories BP. There were lots of them.
Missouri
Lost at home to Purdue, 35-3. And just because Louisville fans have had enough Petrino doesn’t mean the shenanigan-hooked coach couldn’t land elsewhere.
To TigerBoard.com we go, where at least one fan wants Petrino to take over the head job for Barry Odom:
Thread: tempt Bobby P. with money and hookers, motorcycles
Another suggestion: Louisiana Tech coach Skip Holtz, who previously went 16-21 at South Florida.
Thread: How about Skip Holtz as a replacement? Only 54, has a
winning record as a D1 HC, winning record in bowls, and has recruited the SEC states for 20 years.
The most upsetting thing is that this is one of the replies:
That’s actually a very good option. And one that isn't talked about. Nice work hefe.
These poor people.
Some just want the misery to end.
Thread: We might want to consider forfeiting the remaining games in
order to avoid more embarrassing blowouts
Baylor
Completed a tour of non-conference losses that already included the FCS and Conference USA by losing at Duke. Matt Rhule’s now 0-3.
Let’s check in on the boards at BU fan site SicEm365.com.
Thread: Mike Singletary Would Have Been 3-0 Right Now
Thread: Rhule is in breach of the contract if this continues.
Surely his contract requires performance. A buyout or full buyout is in effect if it is the school (employer) that breaches the contract.
There is this addendum, sorting out some legalese:
Caveat I have not read the contract. But surely it seems basic principals apply to it, other wise it isn't a contract.
Also, someone’s worried that Baylor’s getting kicked out of the Big 12.
Thread: This is a 10 year minimum rebuild--Are we safe in the big 12?
Hey all-
Let's be realistic here. We have ZERO depth and we will lose a lot of commitments with this horrible start. This "process" will take us until the mid to late 2020s to get close to decent.
How long will the big 12 put up with it? Admit it, we got very lucky to get in. We better be on the look out.
p.s. Anyone that does not think we got luck to get in the big 12 ask any other big 12 fan (not a baylor fan).
I sure wish I was wrong.
LSU
Lost at Mississippi State by 30 whole points.
Let’s start in head coach Ed Orgeron’s Twitter mentions, where — as the game was still going on — numerous fans urged him to Get Control of His Team.
Jesus @Coach_EdOrgeron get control of your team. Zero zero zero discipline
— Anthony Jimenez (@Big__A__) September 17, 2017
@Coach_EdOrgeron get control of your god damn team.
— Jamelle J. (@JJRagas) September 17, 2017
Jesus Christ @Coach_EdOrgeron get your fucking team under control
— bluse (@geauxbluse) September 17, 2017
LSU never got control of the game itself. Afterward, many offered potential solutions.
Now let’s sojourn at TigerDroppings.com, where the usual NFL coaches were in demand as possibilities to replace Orgeron.
Thread: Chip Kelly
Thread: Should LSU go after Sean Payton if he gets canned by saints?
Would be a smooth transition.
Some of the posters just wanted their fellow posters to chill out.
Thread: You people need to go have sex or something
I mean, assuming you have the wherewithal to make it happen.
It's one fricking football game. You're still alive. Presumably you have a wife and kids. North Korea didn't nuke us. Your mom didn't get bent over by her pool boy. Get over it.
Thread: Ban me if you want
I'm sick of all you crying arse pussies. You wanted les fired you got your wish wanted O got your wish. Lose one game due to key injuries u want his head fire him. You bitches cried cause les would interfere change play calls. O let's his coaches coach. You bitch bout that he just stands on sidelines. Yall bitches are pathetic mother frickers. You are no true fans
It’s good to see the community sticking together after a tough loss.
Was there also someone floating Lane Kiffin, who nearly joined up as Orgeron’s offensive coordinator this season, to replace the man in charge?
You know there was:
Thread: Stars are aligning for Kiffin to become LSU HC in 2019
It's happening. I can feel it.
Tennessee
Lost at Florida on a devastating Hail Mary that wasn’t properly covered.
Regarding Tennessee’s idea of goal-line offense, here’s a really fair question:
.@UTCoachJones I am standing roughly 1 yard away from my wife. Should I reach out and hand her the remote? Or throw it three times? #GoVols
— Fleck To The Hill (@BigOrangeHill) September 17, 2017
Let’s go to VolNation.com.
Is there a plot to temporarily reinstall former UT head coach Phillip Fulmer?
Thread: Think about this
Currie brings back Fulmer during the off season in a "admin" support role
What if Currie brought Fulmer in just in case Jones tanked this season and he would be forced to make a move
Then, he can slide Fulmer in as an interim, with the understanding that it would be temporary.
Currie gets to bring in his own guy
Seems far fetched, I know, but it could be possible. You maintain some stability and Fulmer could sure hold together the recruiting class
Could Tennessee fire Butch Jones and replace him with the guy from Last Chance U?
Thread: Great idea for replacing Butch
I know many of you are huge fans of Netflix. Have you ever heard of Last Chance U? Let's get currie to take a shot on buddy Stephens. If you may not know buddy is one of the best coaches in the JUCO ranks. Sounds crazy right? But so crazy it might just work.
Is this all the fault of Buffalo Bills QB Nathan Peterman, a Tennessee transfer who played the latter years of his college career at Pitt?
Thread: I blame this loss on Peterman...
He played so sh*tty in his two chances at QB that Dobbs never got the redshirt that the coaches wanted. Otherwise, #11 would have been behind center yesterday.
For at least a year or two now, this should’ve already been the term for frittering away a game late:
Thread: No longer Clemsoning.
The new term is Tennesseeing. We Tennesseed that game away.
Have multiple people changed their Twitter names to “Fire Butch,” or used “Butch” and actual fire emojis to convey their desire to Fire Butch?
They were calling for Jones’ firing all throughout a Week 1 win over Georgia Tech, so you know they have:
