#he's just like us fanfic writers smh

[jar-of-maise]

"Um Lyney," Paimon began, in an uncharacteristically hesitant voice.

"Oh? It isn't like you to be so shy, please go on, what's on your mind?" Lyney asked, looking up at her curiously.

Paimon looked at Aether anxiously, then floated a little closer to him, shedding sparkles as she flew, "well, some of the kids were telling us about how you tell them about fairytales..." She begins.

"Ah!" Lyney snaps his fingers, "are you here to ask me to tell you some stories? Well why didn't you say so?" He hops up easily, gracefully revealing several embossed hardcover books which fall out of his hat.

"Take a pick! There are many here, don't be shy," Lyney says cheerfully, showing the books off happily, "this one is a personal favourite," he winks at Aether.

The cover is of a golden-haired prince, drawing a sword from his sheath, sparkles dance around his figure. White armour adorns his strong figure. "It's a pretty cover...but," Paimon begins, raising a finger.

Lyney raises his eyebrows, "oh? Not to your taste? That's alright," he twirls the book around on his fingers, then tosses it up in the air, where it disappears after a sharp snap of his fingers.

"How about this one? It's about a mermaid and her journey to the human world," Lyney offers, smiling at Paimon and Aether as he shows them the book.

"Well, they're all very nice but–" Paimon tries again.

"Goodness! Have you always driven such a hard bargain?" Lyney asks comically, shaking his head, the books tumble down from his hands as he sighs in defeat.

"Lyney." Lynette says with a deadpan look on her face, "they probably want you to tell them a specific story."

"Yeah!" Paimon exclaims, "thank you Lynette!"

"No worries," Lynette says, crossing her arms and nodding, "my brother does have a habit of talking too much," she says, tail swishing side to side.

"Hey! I'm still here you know!" Lyney cries.

Lynettte fixes him with a very exasperated glare, "I know."

"Oh Lynette, how could you be so cruel to your dear brother?" Lyney whines, slumping, a few cards slipping out from underneath his hat. They fall sadly onto the ground, like limp autumn leaves.

"Um..." Aether begins, "we were hoping to hear about the story you created for the kids here," he says hopefully.

"The story...I made?" Lyney asks, perking up, "you want to hear my stories?" He asks in a tone so innocent that Aether can't help but feel endeared by his excitement.

"Yeah! Of course we do, you're a great storyteller Lyney!" Paimon cheers, "yeah!" Aether agrees, nodding vigorously.

"Well then," Lyney gathers his cards in one sweeping motion, shoving them back into his hat, "I can't disappoint my audience then, can I? Please take a seat, the show will be put on momentarily." Lyney grins, gesturing at the table in front of them.

"Please help yourself," Lynette says in a monotone voice as Paimon and Aether slid into their seats. She places her hat onto the table, and once she removes it, trays and plates of snacks appear magically.

"Wow! Thank you! Paimon's digging in then!"

Lynette nods, satisfied, she pours herself a cup of tea and takes a long sip from her cup.

"So Lyney," Paimon says to the magician, who's mumbling to himself as they help themselves.

"Hm? What's up?" Lyney asks curiously.

"The children here said that this story was called, 'The Thief's Hope' but, they also said that it has a sad ending," Paimon comments, "is that true?"

"Ah, you want to hear that story," Lyney says, there's an unreadable expression on his face, "well I wouldn't say it's that sad, uh, it's just not your typical fairytale."

"Yet the kids still love this story," Aether says, watching as Lyney puffs out his cheeks in slight disagreement.

"Yeah I don't really know why," Lyney laughs, slumping onto a nearby couch with a poof!

"Hey, at least that means you're a good story teller!" Paimon says comfortingly, nibbling on a cupcake as she talks.

"Perhaps," Lyney looks at Aether, then at Lynette. His eyes are wistful as he gazes at his hands silently. Outside, the rain was pouring ceaselessly. A cold wind brushed by and the water rapped on the windows. Lyney thought for a long time, then he just sighed fondly, fingers tracing a seam on his shorts before smiling brightly at Aether and Paimon. 

“Alright! Let me tell you the story!” He jumps up from the chair and bows deeply, “Lynette, if you would please,” he bows towards his sister who sighs, “fine," she says.

Lynette snaps her fingers and just like magic, a large backdrop appears behind Lyney, Paimon gasps in surprise and Aether leans forward curiously. It’s a depiction of the Fontaine streets, and the desolate piece of artwork is crafted with life-like accuracy. 

“Allow me to take you back in time,” Lyney steps forth, a hand tucked behind his back as he twirls his hat on his fingers. 

“There once lived a young boy, he was very poor and often worried about when his next meal would come by,” Lyney snapped his fingers and a little doll fell down from somewhere above his head, it was neatly stitched together, yet dirty and battered as though it had been abused and never loved. 

Lyney smiled and nodded at Lynette who waved her hand. A spotlight shone onto the makeshift “stage” focusing on the tiny doll who picked himself up and began to walk around. 

“He was often bullied, looked down upon and slowly, he found himself pushed to the darkest streets, where the light did not fall,” as he spoke, Lyney flicked his fingers, they appeared as dark, long shadows on the harsh light of the backdrop and the doll was flung away.

“But he never forgot what being in the light felt like,” Lyney’s voice echoed from somewhere, like a omnipresent narrator. As he spoke, the little doll picked itself up and began to stumble slowly towards the audience, “he longed to go back, there was a hole in his heart that he wanted to fill. A void that was as dark as the night sky.”

The inky blackness that suddenly filled the stage was so desperate and suffocating that Paimon audibly gasped. No light shone, indeed, it seemed as though even the oxygen was being removed from their lungs. Aether wondered if this too, was a part of the magic.

"He tried to fill his heart with the scraps that littered the streets," Lyney's voice began to speak again, "he hoarded those little things zealously, even they had no love for him and he had no love for them."

A small pinprick of light appeared on the stage and focused on Lyney's figure, he stood in the centre, with a grave expression on his face.

"His fingers were nimble and his feet too, were agile," Lyney smiled, a small doll appearing on his hand.

"He took the memories and love of others, he tried to light up the darkness in his heart with the light and warmth of others." Lyney procured a candle, "but he could not chase away the cold in his heart, nor could he brighten any corner of that room, for it was locked!"

Lynette grimanced into her cup, but begrudgingly waved her hand. The flame of the candle died out as she waved her hand and Lyney smiled widely.

"How should I light up this dark heart?" Lyney walked across the stage, making a thoughtful expression, "Ah! The boy realised something, when he was wandering the streets one day!"

Lyney smiles, carefully placing the doll down, "people crave the unknown, they are fascinated by fantasy…and what better way to achieve that than–” a sudden burst of streamers erupted from behind his back, “magic?”

The backdrop changed, it was a light and happy scene, where the doll reappeared, looking much cleaner and put together, the doll was surrounded by other dolls, they were smiling at him. 

 "If I can't love myself...and I can't take it from others, what if I made them give it to me? That was what the thief thought," Lyney grinned, blowing a shower of confetti hearts at his audience.

Aether smiled slightly when some of the paper brushed his cheek.

"So he began to try and perform, with the few skills he had learned from stealing. No matter how he tried to mask his true self, this boy was a thief," Lyney pointed at the heinous doll with an accusatory finger.

"The truth was that he was a thief, and that all his story-truths were lies." Lyney declared.

Aether and Paimon smiled knowingly, Lynette helped herself to a muffin. She was enjoying the chance to enjoy as many treats as she could.  

“So the thief had finally found something that could fill up his empty heart," Lyney kept talking, "but still, the feeling of emptiness persisted. So he kept performing, kept going, just to chase that feeing," butterflies flew out from Lyney's finger tips as he spoke.

“The treacherous thief lied his way to the top. He tricked people ceaselessly, putting on a show that the masses would love. Lies were piled up on falsehoods. The thief could no longer return to the shadows of his past."

Lyney made a shape with him fingers where the light reflected it's shadow onto the backdrop, "The Thief looked down at the world from on top of the tower he’d built. It was exquisitely crafted, held together by fabricated illusions. He was a sinner, a devil who’d escaped from hell who was undeserving of the light he had gained."

Aether's eyes narrowed slightly, he sipped some tea but listened attentively, Lyney noticed this change, smiling to himself he thought, 'ah he gets it.'

Lyney kept talking, "Like a famous actor, the parts that he had to play continued to increase. People’s lives were entrusted to his hands at night, and in the daytime, he stole people’s hearts. He had never been bested and life itself, was the stage for his craft. 

He sat under the night sky one lonely evening, gazing out into the inky darkness. The thief looked at the stars, they had always sparkled so beautifully, untouched by pain or sorrow. He wanted that light, even though he knew he could never emulate that gentle radiance. 

That was when he met her,” Lyney’s voice took on a reminiscing tone and suddenly Aether was seized by a strange thought, was this just a mere story? He had no time to ponder this question, because Lyney was moving onto the next part of the story.

”Who was she?" Lyney wondered aloud, "well, perhaps she could be described like a burst of sunlight in a cold, frosty winter, or a wonderful flower blossoming in a wasteland...but no," he paused, "she was more than just those."

"She was the steady roll of waves on the ocean, she was the star that never left the night sky," it seemed like Lyney had forgotten his magic in that moment. He stood before them, as a performer still, but Aether realised that this was not only a story, but a reflection of Lyney himself.

"She was not words, she was a feeling," Lyney almost whispered to himself. Yet in the breathless silence that beheld the room, he may as well have shouted those words. Upon beholding this vulnerable side of Lyney, Aether couldn't help but smile sadly.

"The Thief was a certain kind of summertime sadness, one that spring couldn't cure," Lyney said slowly, withered petals falling with every step he took backward, away from the audience.

"He had no words that could describe her, for all the stories The Thief had spun, all the lies he'd said, there was no word he knew that could speak about the truth in her. But The Thief liked to call her mon armour," Lyney smiled bitterly, there was a hatred in the way he uttered those words.

Aether was taken back, but he didn't know why Lyney seemed to dislike those last few words so much.

"Her presence was gentle, yet searing. To The Thief who couldn't remember hugs or caresses, her touches was an uncomfortable, addicting burn."

Sitting in the audience, Lynette looked at her reflection in her cup sadly. This, was his way of atoning for lies, by weaving truths into his stories so that he might not spin falsehoods. She knew Lyney better than anyone else, to most this was obvious, but they didn't know about the hopes of her older brother. Past his light, and his shadow, was a young boy who loved to love and be loved.

That, was also a kind of truth.

"This Thief," Lyney murmured, "he was a haunted house, hollow from inside to out, plagued by a restless soul that was more focused on destroying the construct that kept it existing than anything else. Every now and then, a wind would rush through and open half-closed, weeping wounds.

The people who sojourned in this house did not help the soul, they loved only the mystery, the romance, the unattainable nature of his performance. And often left the house shabbier than when they first entered.

But not mon armour, she came in, like a little ghost. Planting purple wisteria in his mind, with wonderful trees that entwined their roots around the house and bound him to the earth. Camomile grew from his scars, moss and dewdrops patched his wounds.

She planted gardens of lavender in his mind, so that his anxiety might be soothed.

If there was anyone that might make him feel like life was worth living on, it would be her. A gentle love, that didn't demand. How funny, The Thief had never once known how to care, he did not think about the emotion itself. Never committed." Lyney nodded, though Aether didn't know if he was talking to himself or his audience.

"Yet he tried, loving was clumsy. He couldn't make sense of the lines he was meant to colour inside and often scribbled outside of those boundaries. But at least, he was less transient, and more of a home now." Lyney drifted off into his own thoughts, "my love, what a wonderful name, if only..."

Aether lets him mumble to himself, Paimon also floats over to him with a soft, melancholic smile. "Poor Lyney..." she says quietly, "the story must mean a lot to him."

"I think there was a bit more than just that," Aether comments, but refrains from saying some of his other thoughts, knowing Paimon would just freak out.

"My brother finds it hard to express himself," Lynette chips in, "thank you for listening to him," she bows her head.

"It's okay, please tell him that we'd listen to him anytime!" Paimon exclaims waving her hands.

"Thank you, I will."

"I know you're not much of a talker, but we'll also listen to you, if you need it," Aether says, smiling brightly at Lynette, who gives him a little smile in response.

"I will cherish that offer." She says, "honestly," she adds, looking at Lyney with a half-endearing, half-fond and equal parts exasperated expression, "for someone who insists he's unlovable, loving sure comes easily to him."

"He has a lot to give," Aether says kindly, Lyney is quiet, a broken piece of cermanic-ware, so fractured yet so well patched up he looks new. Aether is glad he has something to hope for.

"Lyney loves like he breathes but treats it like it's cancer," Lynette replies, "when he first realised he was infatuated he said he got a heart stroke. Yet if loving really was a disease, he'd hope he'd never recover from his illness" Lynette takes a sip of tea and rolls her eyes gracefully. "In that sense, he's utterly hopeless,"

eruri shipper you reblogged who got hate writes levi get gangraped FYI

CW: Mentioning of SA Oh, hello Anon^^ First thing,you get a special place in my heart since you are my first Anon! Now to your information^^ Thank you for letting me know. I just already knew that said person writes about SA because they have very clear CW everywhere. Maybe you ask now: “But Sayu, if you knew that, why are you reblogging such a person and supporting them? Yet you even defend them!” I will explain it to you, my dear Anon, and I hope you take your time to read my answer. First of all, I do not like to read about SA myself. It is not that I throw a book away and burn it when the topic comes up, but I'm also not someone who enjoys reading about it in particular.

But here is the thing: There are multiple reasons why this topic appears in stories and books. One can be that the writer progresses their own experience via writing. Another can be that bad things have to happen to create a crisis that can be solved. As bad as it sounds a SA can create something like that, It is the writer's choice how to create a conflict within their stories. As long as there are clear content warnings (and oh boy am I happy we have that now. Back in my days…) I have no problem with their choice to do so. There is also no romaticing SA, so if I do not want to read that, I just skip that story. Now you may ask: “But Sayu, it looks like you really like Levi, how can you let someone write about doing such horrible things to him?” Then yeah, you are right. I really do like Levi. I’m also aware that he is a fictional character and that we all have our own tiny Levi in our heart and mind. And these tiny Levi’s help us, each in their own unique kind of way. So that Levi is not “my Levi”, it is theirs and they are free to do what they like with “their Levi”. If I don't like what they do to him, I just smh and keep scrolling. And i can already hear you: “But Sayu, just a bit hate for them, because they are nasty Eruri shippers and dislike them so much!” Well Anon, if I learned something in life then that hate gets us nowhere. It is wasted energy because hate only produces more hate. I also think no one should receive hate for their art. I mean, would you pour hate over someone who orders a pizza with pineapple? As long as no one forces me to eat their pizza with pineapple, they can order whatever they like. What I really despise, Anon, is hate. So I will support anyone who exposes haters and that’s why I support them. Even though I'm not an Eruri shipper. Even though I do not like to read about SA. Sincerely and lot’s of love to you, my sunshine.^^ P.S.: I saw you hate a lot. That is a lot of energy, my dearest Anon! How about you use that energy and write a fanfic yourself how you would like it? Don’t forget to post it on the internet so you can experience what it actually means to publish your art.^^

I was rewatching some of the og iCarly on Netflix recently and just got to iOMG- and I still think the Sam/Freddie kiss at the end was so out of nowhere and unnecessary (so was that whole arch but I digress)

Like the whole episode prior to that end scene is Carly and Freddie flirting and running around together scheming to set her up with another guy they think she’s into- and then we’re supposed to think Freddie’s into sam all of the sudden?? (Like he doesn’t even kiss her back smh)

I mean I have to admit a+ on the shock factor/cliff hanger of it all but the fact that it didn’t make any sense for the characters still outweighs that for me

Like imagine if they’d used that episode to actually give Sam a functional relationship and keep brad around for a little longer- they could’ve even made it into a creddie thing (maybe Carly and Freddie are scheming to get Sam and brad together and somehow end up alone together/something happens between them idk something cute like that) like let’s be real that episode would’ve worked way better as a lead up to a creddie kiss or something happening than a random seddie kiss lol

Anyway end of my little rant (btw fanfic writers feel free to jump onto my little train of thought here lol)

So I'm genuinely curious over how Leonard is one of your favorite characters in the series. In both Pahkitew and RR, he was around for only one episode with his shtick being that he took larpring so seriously that he legit thought they he was a wizard with that mentality being the reason why he was the first to be eliminated in both series.

Yes, and he SOLD IT. I'm a fanfic writer and I'll always fall for the characters who are legitimately fun to write. I would make him a main character in a story any day (and have, and they're some of my faves). I actually use Leonard as my base inspiration for several characters even in my current fanfics because he is THAT strong of a character (to me).

He's a shameless, charismatic sweetheart of a team leader who will grab fast food with you, spill all his secrets, and give you the world unless you mildly inconvenience him, and then he'll instantly swivel to "Wow, I literally do not respect anything about you :)" and I'm in love with it.

Also I'm just gonna say it: I will ALWAYS go for the character who wants to summon a dragon to destroy everyone who's ever wronged him. Leonard is SO conflict avoidant but also he's down for everyone who's ever been mildly rude to him to suffer a horrific death. Do not excuse him from his crimes; we all saw him make multiple attempts to commit murder. Smh.

This is the same guy who throws confetti when he's excited. The duality of man. He WILL dance on your grave.

This is Leonard's actual audition tape. This is what he submitted to the producers. It's him complaining about how someone stole his unicycle. Why did he submit this? Why is he like this? Love him.

(Cnt'd Leonard ramblings under the cut. You will regret this.)

It's the way he chuckles at his friend and takes a moment to clarify that no, he's not made of paper. Like. If his friend asked him to come over and then the follow-up question was "Are you made of paper?" then you know this is someone in Leonard's friend group and you know he was 100% willing to whip out his unicycle and go to his friend's house in his full LARPing gear. He has no fear of judgment, no shame, and he must have incredible balance and I just think that's fun. This boy lives for himself. I love characters who are unapologetically all-in with what they love and who they are.

It's the way he says "I'm making a video" as if he's just... doing something unimportant. WHY did he submit this? He's already set up as this character who brushes off the professional side of the competition in favor of doing whatever the heck he wants, and that's hilarious. The amount of confidence he oozes every time he's onscreen is just... palpable. We know he was canonically bullied in school, but man oh man, that clearly does not stop him. He fears nothing and I fear him.

Most of the characters let Chris push them around because they'll do whatever it takes to move to the next episode and try to win a million dollars. Leonard is ONLY here to play and make friends. He made the active choice to be stubborn and throw away his chance at the money because if he couldn't play the game his way (in character) then he didn't want to play at all. And that is so interesting.

Look at his bedroom. Look at how into this aesthetic he is. He's heating a cauldron on an electric burner. He's got candles. He's got scrolls and a crystal ball. He's got so many books. He LOVES what he does and he's unapologetic for it. He's so authentic and pure and good and I love him for it.

Leonard runs around in his full-on robes, his fake beard, and... converse shoes. He's committed to the outfit in so many ways but he needs comfy shoes to be happy and I respect that.

Look how cute he is... his body language is just. fun. Just stands there all smiles while his girlfriend throws confetti. Having a fantastic day.

Then that next scene where Tammy keeps throwing confetti on him and he just stands there with his eyes pinched shut and he's trying not to hurt her feelings is... super cute.

Leonard brings a "Let's have a good attitude and be loyal and friendly" vibe to the team that Dave specifically cannot stand. Every single other person on that team liked Leonard. Dave is just mean.

Leonard's first interaction with Dave was walking up to him and trying to cleanse him of evil, which is so funny to me. Dave is "the normal guy," Max was sitting right next to him and just gave his spiel about how evil he was, and Leonard took one look at Dave, who was sitting there and doing nothing, and said "No, THIS is the one who needs cleansing." Absolutely savage (and he was right).

His parachute failed. Everyone else is screaming. Leonard shows no fear. Tries to save himself with magic. He has a whole spell book. Went straight for the wing spell. Still falling to his doom. Just chilling. His commitment to the bit is unparalleled and I love him.

Leonard's super compassionate, I think... Threw himself in front of Dave and ordered him to crawl to safety, then grabbed a weapon and readied himself to face his enemies. Leonard is way more dramatic than he needs to be, but you can tell he's super loyal because he's willing to put himself in the line of fire for others. For no reason.

We know Leonard watched the OG Total Drama series, because he grabs a pipe, whips it above his head, and tells Chef to "go back to the shadows of Wawanakwa." Sure, we can assume most of the contestants watched the previous series before they auditioned, but I appreciate it for Leonard specifically because he really looked at this show and said "Yes, this is a smart place for me to go LARPing." Considering how he threw in the towel in episode 2, refusing to break character, I think he watched the previous episodes and thought he would meet like-minded nerds rather than compete for money. He wanted to make friends :(

Leonard gets a bad rap for being bullied and unlikable, but like... he's SO charismatic. He's a natural leader who speaks up when he has ideas. Sugar, Ella, and Beardo are all over him immediately. Sky turns to him and asks him to take charge and when Leonard suggests linking arms and chanting in order to build a tower, Sky and Shawn are among those who cheer. Episode 1 Leonard was everybody's sweetheart <3

Leonard's not "the weird kid nobody likes." He's the flippin' team leader. And he did exactly what he promised to do, which was lead the team to build a wizard's tower (It's not his fault he didn't expect a moose stampede to knock it down).

Dave is a GROUCH in episode 1 and straight-up mocked the tower in front of Leonard, and Leonard is still all smiles and love and hugs. You can NOT fight Leonard's commitment to purity and sweetness. You will lose. I love him so much.

Leonard is SO silly. He keeps getting in so many risky situations and walking away unscathed, and every single time he's like, "Yeah, I was fine because I'm awesome." I just think he's fun.

Leonard is just so ??? /gestures. He climbs on rocks and stands on them. Just because he can. He just kinda... touches things. And plays. Loves telling stories. Loves having fun.

It's the way that all his teammates are complaining about how they had to sleep on rocks last night, and Leonard rolls his eyes with a massive smirk on his face and says "Pfft. I levitated all night." Like. Why is he committing to this? He makes me laugh.

[It's the same subtle sass he flings around in R-Race when he has no trouble riding his camel and others are struggling. It's so uncalled for. He's just sassy sometimes.]

It's the way that Ella confuses even Leonard. Why is Leonard SO into his LARPing characterization but he still just... stares at Ella like he doesn't "get" her? He does this multiple times. They are not on the same wavelength. They do not vibe. It's SO funny to me because you would expect those two to adore each other, but... Ella likes being his cheerleader and Leonard's just kinda... not into it.

It's the way Leonard gets flattered when Sugar compliments him and then glares at Dave when Dave comes out swinging with his unrestrained Leonard hatred. Leonard doesn't get snippy with him. Ever. Even when Dave literally screams in his face that he thinks Leonard is useless. Leonard doesn't bat an EYE. Doesn't flinch. Just stares him down. Leonard never snaps, but always puts up with it... that character type always speaks to me. idk man. There's something about characters who simmer in silence, especially when you know how wild they can be, that always hooks me.

It's the way that Leonard has his little hand symbol that he keeps using over and over. Leonard was MADE to be eliminated early, that's his entire purpose in the show... he IS cannon fodder, but I think it's cute that he still had his own special body language.

It's the way Leonard was so shocked that he was in the bottom two on elimination night. It's the way he curled up, hugging himself and pleading to not be chosen. I just think he's cute. It's the way Leonard, who is SO TALL, gets thrown over Chef's shoulder like a sack of potatoes and Leonard just kinda... wails and stretches his arm back towards the campfire. He's baby.

Listen, I know his final act was attempted murder but he's innocent, your honor. Yes, I know he also tried to commit murder in R-Race but I demand you free my man. He did nothing wrong.

My favorite characters are the ones that are fun to write and/or practically write themselves. You get one taste of Leonard and that's all you need. He ingrains himself in your mind. You can have him do anything you want and you're right. That's the best kind of character when you're writing fanfics.

This one's probably not going to show up well, but here's a screenshot from my 'fic "The Story Where Courtney Takes Feral Zeke to Prom" (dA title; "Precious" on FFN)

He's just. Leonard. He is SO funny. Just delightful.

Leonard can be swayed to do anything as long as it's fun. And he's a charismatic leader who can sway others to play along with him, especially in a post-elimination fanfic. He is bubbly and full of adventurous spirit, and once you put him back in a non-competitive environment where everyone's a little bit bored and looking for ways to stay entertained at the elimination station, there's no doubt in my mind that everyone would love him again.

He's NICE. He's FUN. This kid knows how to research. He knows how to reach out to people. He'll fight for you. He'll throw himself in the line of fire for you. He just wants to play and be your friend. He's a charismatic sweetheart and I like him. You will never write yourself into a corner as long as you have Leonard in the vicinity. He's too big and loud and will fight anything.

I adored Leonard so much already, and then R-Race drops and we find out he has a girlfriend?? And they met when they were stuffed inside the same locker?? And they absolutely adore each other?? His only critique about Tammy is that she throws too much confetti on his head?? Incredible, 10/10. Nowhere else can I get this character. When will I ever be this funny.

Seriously I cannot emphasize enough how much I love the Leonard/Tammy ship. They are SO in tune with each other. They just straight-up arrived to R-Race in full LARP gear sipping sodas. What. Right out of the gate, sets them up as the silly beans they are. You can instantly feel how much better Leonard vibes with Tammy than he did with Ella. Love that for him.

Leonard and Tammy just... love to play. They ran around the airport throwing confetti at people. That is a thing they actually did. Why are they like this. You just know their relationship is so, so good and healthy and they adore each other. When Tammy got eliminated, her first reaction was to cast a time reversal spell, which is the SAME THING Leonard did when he got eliminated in TD. I love them.

Leonard went after the outcasts in his attempts to make alliances. He went for the adversity twins and for Crimson and Ennui. Ugh. I love that. He knew nothing about them except "those are the ones who are going to struggle to have allies." He's so good.

Also, shout out to the R-Race animators for keeping Leonard's special hand gesture exactly the same in R-Race as it was in TD. That's my boy.

And if you're still not swayed, you gotta keep in mind that my niche when these seasons were airing was in writing post-elimination 'fics, told from the POV of the character first eliminated in each cast. Getting to the elimination area early cements you as "the guy who knows what's going on." Beardo was out first and he wasn't a talker, so Leonard slid right in there. Beardo's super introverted... but Leonard? Oh my goodness gracious, if you've never tried writing Leonard then you have no idea how useful to the narrative he is.

I LOVED the dynamic I wrote between those two in Beatin' Path. They instantly fell in as BFFs, because Beardo was super shy but would go along with anything Leonard wanted to do, because Leonard's charisma is off the charts and he is GOOD at making things fun. Leonard was very good at including Beardo in his play. Beardo is so good at being the sound effects hype man. They just... loved it. Had a blast. They were having fun, so I was having fun. That's the best kind of fanfic.

Look at my sons...

Look at them... They're the worst.

I love Leonard. He's so nuts.

So part of the charm IS the fact that he got out early (twice!!) and had an extremely charismatic personality. He only wants to play, so when you put him in a non-competitive environment where he is free to play, then he THRIVES.

I just play him as this super accepting, kindhearted character who wears every emotion on his sleeve. He will tell you all his secrets. Leonard has no shame. Here's one of my favorite scenes from a late chapter I never posted. This is quintessential Leonard vibes to me:

Beardo can be going through the worst possible thing and Leonard is just so charming and charismatic that it's hilarious. I love him.

?? Leonard is Unapologetically Leonard. I am so in love with his... bizarre interactions. I know I'm posting a lot, but I just have so many things I love:

I just ??? love him. He's simultaneously out of touch with reality and living in his dream LARPer world but he'll also grab sodas with you. He's so good.

One of my worldbuilding details in my Total Drama 'fics was that cartoon physics were very real, but I did it in a silly way. Everyone had one specific "gift" that they grew into during puberty (and Cody giving Beth "the Talk" about this was the subject of my one-shot "Of Ants and Cartoon Physics").

Leonard's gift was that he had an inventory and I also wrote him as a kleptomaniac. And it was SO fun. I LOVE Leonard.

Like, I just wrote Leonard picking up random things and putting them in his sleeves. Sometimes he'd just put mice in his shirt and they would go into the void. He was the only character who had an inventory. He ran around with knives. It was lots of fun.

On a side note, the biggest reason why I stopped working on my R-Race elimination story (Lions Under Palm Trees) wasn't lack of time or passion, but... there's an entire arc about Junior hitting puberty and coming into his cartoon physics gift, which was generating extreme amounts of static electricity. I LOVE what I did with it, but I just kept dwelling on my 'fic and getting nervous that I had taken it too far beyond canon and people would be weirded out, especially since I was already making my POV characters two people the fandom had no love for.

Technically the gifts I gave characters match things that happen in canon (ex: Heather's gift was that she has retractable nail-claws, which she actually did in the New York episode of World Tour). Zeke's gift was that he's immune to food poisoning, which iirc was based on his character interview where he explains that he has a strong stomach, combined with the fact that it's implied he's had to live off raw rats in World Tour and possibly other seasons too. So my things were based in canon... I just felt like people would be turned off that there was SO. MUCH. of that kind of stuff in this 'fic. It kind of took over the plot and I just couldn't decide if that was the vibe.

But I'd go back to my Leonard 'fics in a heartbeat if I had the time. There are some NASTY hard-hitting moments in there and I love them so much. Leonard is an angel. I mean he's the worst but I love him. Topher is a menace. Tammy makes bad choices. Ugh. I love it.

I love Leonard...

Introduction

This is an original character roleplay blog!

Character: Vero (He/Him) - Gender: Agender - Sexuality: AroAce - Age: ???

Owner: @neversam (He/They) - Gender: Genderfluid - Sexuality: AroAce (Spec) + Omniromantic - Age: MINOR !!!!

PLEASE send asks (DO NOT SEND NSFW ASKS)!! If you try to flirt with him he'll probably flirt back or make fun of you try at your own risk lol. Vero loves to answer questions!! Vero is agender but he can shapeshift. His most common forms besides his male one is turning into a parrot and turning into his female form. For the sake of consistency Vero spun a wheel one day to decide his human-like form and it landed on masculine. He truly does not care what you refer to him as.

He is a silly goober who likes to torture his souls! At the moment the only visible universes you can read of his are Author's Mistake and My Ordinary Brother on quotev! He is currently working on his tbhk universe with his co-writer. [Owner's Quotev Account]

Smh I never wanted to work her anyway

Okay buddy..

Lore

What is a fate writer?

“Let’s start with a Fate Writer. It’s essentially an angel who writes a soul’s fate or destiny. A soul is a being that hasn’t ascended to it’s universe’s heaven or hell yet. I’m going to assume you know the multiverse theory, I basically just copied a universe of My Hero Academia, changed some things, and added you to it! Also, yeah… Sorry for killing you when your house burned down… that was on accident. I spilled my coffee on your book.” - Vero from my Quotev MHA fanfic, Author's Mistake

What is a counterpart?

A counterpart in the terms of a fate writer is someone connected to a fate writer's soul. Essentially a mortal form of them. (Example, Vero's counterpart is Sam the owner of this blog @neversam)

The counterpart is the one creating universes (fanfics/stories) while the fate writer manages them

in basic terms a fate writer could be seen as a sona of the counterpart

Where does a fate writer reside?

A fate writer each have their own space, for Vero it's his library. Occasionally a fate writer could have other fate writers live with them if they are writing a universe together.

This Library is in a place beyond the universes, and if Vero wishes he could teleport the medium to his library. Which brings us to our next section

What is a medium?

A medium is a soul that a fate writer uses to easier intervene though a universe. They do not have to have a medium. (Examples can be y/ns from fanfics or ocs that were added in.)

Souls can get reused (which explains reincarnation fics or isekai fics)

Each soul has it's own book in Vero's libraries.

What is the power of intervention?

Most fate writers have their own unique ability, Vero's is intervention. He is able to intervene in his universes' like he can actually visit them and be in there. Typically, a fate writer cannot do that. He can also telepathically talk to his mediums or souls whenever he pleases, which is also not typical of a fate writer's abilities.

honestly man, i am just going to resort in planning and writing my own aemond targaryen fanfic now to help cope with the shitshow of a show. smh. maybe grrm should hire fanfic writers now. smh.

i also hope that the actors don't shy away from working with scripts written by fanfic writers because, it's clear that HBO's non-fanfic writers don't know what they are doing. especially, the male actors. male actors have the tendency to stay away from female gazey shows because they want the respect of other men, which is like *insert eyeroll here*.

especially, ewan mitchell. that guy is built to star in fantasy romance shows.

also, i hate it when someone disses on fanfic writers! fanfic writers bring an incredible amount of passion to the creator's work! not just write smutty fics! but then again, grrm is nice to hbo's writers with no fanfic experience because he's cashing their cheques. smh.

brb. going to ao3 now.

I understand your disappointment with the season finale, I didn't like it too much either, but I decided not to think about it and just focus on the scenes with Ewan that will surely rekindle many writers, including me.

I don't know if I fully understand what you mean by men not taking on roles with female directors. I don't like using stereotypes, but it sounds a bit like that to me, and I think it's unfair. Every person decides about themselves and their career, how they choose roles is their private matter, also depending on their comfort and approach.

Maybe Ewan simply doesn't want to play in movies with romances? Maybe he prefers strange and disturbing characters? Not everyone has to feel good in such roles, in my opinion it's not up to us to judge.

I don't think it's about the female gaze, but rather how it is in a specific case: if someone feels that this female directorial gaze is inappropriate, toxic, or simply something they can't relate to, they have the right not to participate. Let's stop blaming people for rejecting something we don't think they should reject. Let's stop creating groups of "male gaze" and "female gaze" and think about the "human gaze." Women also want respect and praise from other women. I don't know why that would belittle them. We all want to be appreciated.

My heart goes out to the fanfic writers in this fandom, they do an amazing job, they are very nasty and imaginative, they create a lot of AUs, and they are very talented. I am happy to be one of them and I don't really care what GRRM thinks. I hope you also find joy in writing, and that's what I wish for you. 💕

[nocturnes-dc]

I gotta say I'm taking aspects from things, cause I really like what they're doing with daisy in the new run too! But I don't want base anything I make heavily on what's going on now. I'ma do my own thing, but I'm having fun brain storming. I'm trying to be more active on this blog too 😩

Like you know how much duke content I crave but then remember I gotta make my own! Like I read the same duke centered fanfics from time to time. And one thing I Hate is when fics are tagged with duke and another character in the bat fam. It's he's just used as a plot device, to explore other characters like 😫 I can understand if he's trying to get to know his new family but like 😮‍💨 honestly he's one of the easiest characters to get to know.

Why cuz he doesn't have a whole ass legacy of comic runs so you can get a feel of his personality, thoughts, feelings pretty quickly. It's funny too like when I read something with duke and a another character you can tell the author has a clear bias to the one they're writing him with. Which isn't bad at all but like half his siblings are older then he is and pitching a fit.

Like I feel like he rarely ever gets written his age or drawn really, like(don't get me started on tim drake the beef I have with him and I used to really like him too. I don't hate him, but like comic writers really be doin too much with him I could careless about. Like I liked when he went by red robin and let Dami just have his own thing but 🙃 there's so much more but smh)

Why can't they treat me boi Duke right 😔 anyway had to get some of that rant out cause I just don't want to write out my thoughts.

[tranquilspot]

John: Take nails.

This title is gross if you don't know it's about metal nails. Or, "I've got your nose" but the terrifying version.. Sorry for the awful mental image btw.

You captchalogue FOUR (4) NAILS into the top card, and push all the ARTIFACTS down a card. The FAKE ARMS are pushed entirely out of the deck!!!

So will an item put in a overfilled bag, you're not special sylladex!

Oh well. They're probably completely useless anyway.

Can we get an f in the notes, the fake arms are just literally existing, why are you so mean John?

But you probably don't want to do that again, unless you want to drop the SMOKE PELLETS and suffer the consequences.

But suffer and facing consequences should be a thing you SHOULD do more often! *glance towards GAME OVER and retcon shenanigans*

And THIS, is probably the reason I stopped reading on my second reading. Man this isn't my kind of humor. It's just puerile and not funny in my opinion.

*sigh*

John: Squawk like an imbecile and shit on your desk.

This is the dumbest idea you've had in weeks!!! STUPID STUPID STUPID.

Agreed. Neeext

John: Combine the nails and hammer.

You MERGE the top two cards. The HAMMER and NAILS are now captchalogued on the same card and can be used together.

I know that I said that we shouldn't mourn scraped ideas, but this one was soo good! What a shame. It could have been useful for freeing space, especially for a certain pen pal.

John: Use hammer/nails on poster.

You use the HAMMER and NAILS card IN CONJUNCTION with the card beneath it.

In conjunction!!! :0 See this is some good shit, and I never saw anyone mentioned it ever. Not like fanfic use sylladices a lot but whyy!! It.has.potential. Writers, go brainstorm, get some ideas, go crazy. But also, why make your life difficult when you can just, pick up the hammer and nails, and manually nail it. You still have hands, even if we can't always see 'em. *something something overuse of technology makes us dependent and lazy something something* smh BUT, I have to admit, it's straight. Mine always tilted a little bit to the left or right. *impressed small clap*

John: Nail poster to wall.

Covering another one cause we skimmed a page.

(sorry for the resized gifs, its Tumblr doing. I'm doing my best to reduce the image being compressed by cropping it)

You use the HAMMER, NAILS, and POSTER on the blank space on the wall. It's glorious. Exactly what you wanted. The old man really came through this time.

You didn't have to hide Problem Sleuth though :( How old is M. Eggbert anyway? if John's 13, he must be ~40ish old, no? Aaaah, how I long for new posters in my room. Hélas, posters related to my interests are rare and expensive, taxes and all the whole shebang. —>

[tenelkadjowrites]

ahahahhaha no don't worry, my signal was in fact acting up (i'm on an island) so i decided to send the ask again just in case when i still remembered what i wanted to say! (also totally knew what to expect before i clicked the link 😆)

i know some people hate mullets with passion but i had no idea people were so nasty? his mullet literally attracted me to the group lmao. despite being a fan for a long time i only joined atiny spaces at the beginning of 2020 so i had no clue.

miss tenelka, taemin is my ult as well so i know what you're talking about, i've been a shawol for ages! though my feelings towards hwa are a bit different since taemin is like my bestie, my soulmate (i know, dramatic, i just relate to him and key a lot), and hwa is... my ideal everything... but i theory obviously

their first concerts were something else, i would love to see them again though, but so far it hasn't happened and probably won't for a while 🙄 (glad you're free from your ex)

ahhhh i see, honestly the gossip girl aspects didn't matter to me much, i liked htat the focus was more on the characters, but i understand where you're coming from. i definitely felt the presence of the city in arrow in the dark.

i used to have a hwa side blog (it's sadly gone cause tumblr is a bitch) and i still have hwa centred twt account. i mainly post(ed) about him, made gifs, edits, fan art and some people treat me like a solo stan it's baffling. i won't lie and say he isn't my fave, because he is and i love him the most, doesn't mean i dislike other members, smh.

in the end you have to post and create whatever you want, i'm sure people who bias other members and perhaps don't really read seonghwa fics are a bit jealous because you're such a great writer. so i can't blame them for wanting to read a story about their fave from you! but yeah they just need to deal with it. there's no use writing something that you dislike or feel like isn't authentic

yeah, it was mostly instagram comments whenever he would post a selfie. the comments were usually pretty negative and i remember being disgruntled over it and happy he didn't cave to pressure and change his hair. that's one of the reasons i love hj - he always wears what he wants and does what he wants to his hair and that's that. he's had hairstyles i've not been a fan of but i always love that he does what he wants stylistically boldly. and now newer atiny love the mullet and i constantly see them wishing he would bring it back so i feel vindicated in a way lol.

twitter is overall a pretty negative space. i use it mostly for shitposting because it's just a mess. sorry you had to deal with ppl thinking you were a solo stan. i don't understand the logic in that because there is such a diff between being a solo stan and having a bias, you know? if you ever start posting on there again, let me know cuz i am always kinda looking for good hwa accounts on there.

yeah sometimes i feel a little bit of the odd one out in the fanfic community because i know you are sorta expected to take requests, write for every member of a group, etc and i don't. i'm also shy and keep to myself and i struggle with any sort of attention me (i try not to be too aware of how many notes or followers i have because it gives me anxiety lol). most of the friendships i've formed thru the blog is because people have messaged me first altho i try to overcome my shyness and message people if they've written a fic that i've read and enjoyed a lot. i understand if someone likes my writing style but doesn't wanna read a hwa fic they could be a little frustrated i haven't written for other members but as you said, my writing is an extension of me and it's important that i write what i want and what feels true to me. the work is better for it.

thanks for always taking the time to send in thoughtful mesages.

EDIT: also i completely forgot to reply to the taemin part of this message omfg, sorry about that.

[httpmentalbreakdown]

I notice how often in the Twilight fandom we have characters we love to hate. I’ve seen hate for all the characters, Jacob, Bella, and Edward especially. Many are justified and some are just crack reasons. However, no one is hated more than Renesmee Carlie Cullen (actually writing her name correctly smh 😂😭). The hate can range from her name to her whole existence in the saga. If you don’t know who Renesmee is she’s Bella and Edward’s demon miracle child. She’s a vampire/human hybrid who Bella gave birthed to in Breaking her back Dawn a month after their honeymoon. I’ll be honest, I don’t hate Ratatouille (sorry couldn’t help it). I actually read a lot of fanfics because she isn’t a fully developed character,so it’s fun to see how writers characterize her. My favorite interpretation is her being closer to human with vampire abilities. I like when her growth is rapid but starts to slow down to human pace until 17/18. I also like when she eats a mixture of human food and blood. Some writers like to write her so close to a full vampire they even make her eyes gold, like no. I also understand her slander though. She’s in so many ways a Mary Sue, like vampire Bella or human Bella sometimes too. Renesmee’s mary sueness is down to her name. She’s so special she couldn’t even have a name that won’t get her bullied in school. Which she’ll be attending 1000x over so like Bella do better. The problem I’ve always had was her overall perfection. Now I know she’s supposed to be perfect because she’s half vampire. I would have like her to at least give Eddie and Beller a hard time. I mean like dirty diapers, tantrums, weird child thoughts that confuse Edward (but he secretly loves). She just ended up being another trophy for Bella’s shelf. She gets the perfect boyfriend/husband, vampirism, beauty, immortality, wealth. The cherry on top being a perfect child who’s so advanced she doesn’t need to actually parent. Like people say poor Bella and Edward. No poor Renesmee because her parents are permanently teens with an occasional god complex. Jacob also has to be tied to them because he was forced to imprint on her. She is also forever tied to a guy who used to like her mother. Smeyers was on crack istg and i’ll die on that hill. Moral of the story is everything bad happens when Bella and Edward have sex, so they should wear chastity belts 🤷🏾‍♀️

[jar-of-maise]

what's up my dears or dearly detested, it's hc time

we're going to focus on love languages with my fav sibling trio today bc i said so

LYNEY:

words of affirmation, physical touch

he has to be a words of affirmation guy fs

but tbh i feel like he'd also try to shy away from it? esp if he's serious (is that possible? well we'll never know) since he has lied...before...and we all know how well detail omission went

so probably acts of service, making you smile, uhhhhhh yeahhhh

probably fond of pet names

will be touchy

i can see him doing pda, not excessively but hes not against it

probably likes hugs? but like the more i think about it the more im not sure about him with physical touch (see Lynette's for more detail) but i think he'd be a cuddle bug

why's this the shortest

oh lyney my poor sweet dear

he gets tired of life, so you're a welcome escape

would lie on your lap

will hold hands with you

would dream of a happy future with you

dude roasts his little brother about still liking fairy tales and pulls this bs smh

honestly as insecure as freminet - just shows it differently

i think all three siblings are traumatised (who could've guessed?)

i feel like he'd pull some very obnoxious french jokes

he likes making you laugh, smile, happy

he's not sunshine he's a solar eclipse

and you my dear, are the stars that surround his entirety

like a planet orbiting him ceaselessly

i dont actually know what that means but apparently it's an actual thing

oh the inherent romanticism of celestial imagery

yeah that's also my tag what about it

i think, though, that lyney can use his charms to very aptly flirt with you

why?

exhibit A: the rainbow rose (real simps know what i'm talking about)

gets lynette to vibe check you, and then her cats, and then freminet (pers honorary judge)

performs exclusive magic shows for you

uh you can let immagination decide what kind of exclusive and magic you want in those

LYNETTE

acts of service, quality time

acts of service girlie fs

she's creepily observant in a good way but like, she also probably accidentally nearly oversteps some boundaries

"Hello Lynette!"

"Hi here's some things for you"

and she hands you a crap ton of stuff that you probably didn't even know you wanted yet

girl just wants the best for you

oh yeah if you're a physical touch person, you might not be overly pleased bc i headcanon her as physically repulsed by romantic gestures and gooey affection (fanfic writers, that's fuel for how she'd react to lyney being in a relationship)

and the reason i hc this is bc of her past, like you can't convince me lynette wasn't traumatised by that noble person

but while she isn't expressive with touch or words, she is a very good listener!

gl if you're allergic to cats too bc she'd def introduce you to them

(if you pass their vibe check you're all good, if not...uh...)

family is very important too so if you pass their vibe check well put that on a resume bc you are impressive

yes she's a gift giver

but i also think that she'd give you some...strange gifts

like you know those cats that bring like dead fish and mice back to their owners? yeah she'd probably do the same honestly...

hopefully not with mice corpses and whatnot

dont worry, she can magic them out of existence if you wish

just like she can to anyone who wrongs you-

shes the best though honestly, very supportive

bonus points if you join in and riff off her robot lingo though that'd honestly be green flag, marriage behaviour (maybe not that last bit but yk)

you probably encourage lyney to deep dive into his antics, much to lynette's fustration

she now babysits not one, two but three toddlers full time

but you probably also bring freminet out of his shell

she loves you for that so you're forgiven

the type to relentlessly tickle you

doesnt take anything serious but takes pillow fights seriously when it counts

she loves dessert and tea a bit more than you

sorry

but she's happy to share <3

FREMINET

quality time, gift giving

oh my god words cannot describe how excited i am for this particular hc

so yeah, he has a voiceline about making penguins for kids

PEOPLE HED MAKE YOU LITTLE PENGUINS

totally gonna make your penguin twin with Pers tho

god thats so cute whys the standard so high

also he's another not-expressive-with-words person so uh, yeah expect muchas time spent together (or not...bc he's always deep sea diving) either way! it's always quality

he is (very obviously) insecure so give him plently of love and affection (or ELSE-)

im still crying over matching penguins, is that juts me

he'd fix your broken machines for you as a love language

bonus points if you like, can, or want to learn how diving tho it's probably a double edged sword right, bc like, on one hand yall can hang out underwater and who needs aquarium dates when you can BE in the sea

but on the other hand, you now have access to his vulnerable and safe space

yeah you better treat him right or else

he'd probably get carried away with his mechanical stuff and make you a crap ton of toys

maybe not the cuddly kind either so js be prepared for that

god hes such a bean tho

an anxiety bean

btw, he very much believes in fairy tales and what not, so do us all a favour and believe in the magic with him

OR ELSE

ik i say that a lot

i feel like-

i dont actually know i forgot, someone messaged me and i lost my train of thought

ANYWAYS

just freminet being the softest, cutest boy

[dahlwatchesmiraculous]

OKAY MY GLACIATOR 2 THOUGHTS:

- Chat noir getting thrown in the bin made me kinda :’(

- as much as I hate ladybug being mad at chat, good for her for standing her ground

- Of all people, I didn’t expect KAGAMI in this episode?? But I’m glad we did and that we got to see her caring for Adrien’s well-being

- Adrien almost getting akumatized???? That was not expected. Why do I feel like that’s forshadowing. Gabe restrained himself this time, but if he’s really desperate, would he actually akumatize adrien???

- Also marinette and Adrien in the park. As soon as that hamster cage appeared I knew it was her imagination agfjajdkv

- It was interesting to see gabe trying to comfort adrien. Like He actually admitted that he’s been distant, so he’s aware that he’s not doing a good job. And smh this man is so fake. “If you ever want to talk I’m here” SHUT UP no you aren’t. It took adrien being so disappointed and heartbroken for you to pay attention to him get outta here. In any other case, adrien would’ve been thrilled to be see his dad expressing concern for him, but his apathy really showed just how hurt he was by the whole ladybug thing. And just wow I thought it was a really interesting scene!!

- The first marichat rehearsal scene was actually amazing I loved it so much. It was so funny

- Post reveal: “wait, so I was ‘buttercup’?”

- AND THEN THEY WENT ON A DATE ahfhajdjnfjdc

- Riding the bus seemed kinda dumb tho, like they really didn’t need to do that, but I understand that they wanted a way for Andre to see them in a somewhat intimate(?) setting idk

- I liked how they were being really honest with themselves in the theater. Rip to the angry guy behind them tho he was just trying to watch lol

- MARICHAT GOT AN UMBRELLA SCENE MARICHAT GOT AN UMBRELLA SCENE MARICHAT GOT AN UMBRELLA SCENE

- It wasn’t that special but it also was okay? IT WAS CUTE LET ME HAVE THIS MOMENT AHFHAJCJSBBCN

- It was weird seeing the battle start and end so late into the episode?? Also really confused on how the heck chat and ladybug knew how to fricken drive a lambo?? Esp thinking back to zombizou when chat tried driving a bus (I mean I know they’re v much not the same thing but it’s still a vehicle neither of them should know how to drive lmao) they were driving a bit too smoothly

- But I liked how they established better boundaries!! Ladybug told him what she’s good with and what isn’t okay, and we see him taking that to heart in the next episodes (tho to be fair, we can’t really be sure bc chat/adrien is also dealing with v conflicting feelings in those episodes too??) I just think it’s interesting how this episode was placed right before hack san and rocketear. The writers want us to see how much he struggles to contain his love for her, just to fracture that love in the next few episodes. We still have yet to see any real consequences from rocketear, but I’m v intrigued.

- chat leaving the battle to return to helping marinette felt like every single marichat fanfic ever ahfhajfjks AND THEN SHE GOT RID OF HER SCRIPT AND SPOKE FROM THE HEART 😭😭😭 and chat’s face as he listened?? I’m just 😭😭😭 he’s NEVER seen this side from marinette before

- AND COME ON he spoke to her as adrien just earlier and saw how she was fumbling with her words. And she told him as chat THAT SHE KEEPS MESSING UP AROUND THE BOY SHE LOVES so??? Cmon piece it together buddy

- But anyway I’m a lil confused. By this point, does adrien know marinette and luka aren’t together anymore?? Bc I wanna know who he thought she was trying to confess to

- But also I can’t stop thinking about how chat noir is adrien. That was adrien right in front of her whom she confessed to. They went to the movies together, they rode the bus together, they walked under an umbrella together. That. Was. Adrien.

- Excuse me as I just *deep breath* AHHHHHHHHH

- Also the way he ran away as soon as her dad called for her 😂😂😂

- Also the last scene, where Adrien’s fired up in fencing again. Idk it felt a lil unclear, did he get his groove back bc of ladybug, or bc of marinette??

- kagami and the manga was p funny too! And I hope marinette saying “you should hang out with me more” actually happens bc I miss seeing kagami ;-;

- “Marinette opened my eyes” you can’t possibly tell me he didn’t start realizing his feelings for marinette after hearing her speak so honestly and being so vulnerable!!!

- Also “whoever the boy is that you love, he’s pretty lucky” KINDA SOUNDS LIKE HE HOPES IT’S HIM IDK

- still sad for alya’s collection of ladynoir photos tho but it’s fine bc she’ll have plenty of that once they get together lol

- And tbh?? I’m upset we didn’t get the “do you like chat noir” conversation between alya and marinette like we all hoped 😭😭 pls stop depriving us 😭😭 pls just have marinette acknowledge her feelings for chat that WE ALL KNOW SHE HAS

- All in all this was a great ep. Every marichat shipper’s dream. My ladynoir heart is slightly bruised but i know everything will come together in the end :’)

[probably-haven]

after binge reading i have come to a new revelation: I’m not a fan of most Xiaoven fanfics

Don’t get me wrong, I love the ship and its one of my favorite to think about.... but most of the fanfiction for the ship just- doesn’t sit right with me for a number of reasons. 

Disclaimer: these are personal opinions from my own taste and are in no way an attack against any authors out there, because frankly fanfic authors are great and not like i could do better lol. As these are personal opinions, I acknowledge here and now that a number of people disagree and that they are under no obligation to change their opinions in any way as it is not and never will be my intention to tell others what they should be thinking That said- read at your own risk if you want- meh, anyway-

time to share some opinions that have been on my mind lately

The biggest reason.... is how they handle Xiao. And I don’t even mean mischaracterization because Xiao is such a complex and yet simultaneously simple character that as long as you’re somewhere in the range of “Xiao vibes” it’s really hard to write him out of character because of his complexities. What I mean is something that i actually completely agree with as being accurate to his character. In nearly every single fanfic I’ve seen, there is some element of idolization that Xiao has for Venti, or for the sake of reference, Barbatos. He tends to think himself beneath Barbatos and/or indebted to him, whether that be because he’s an archon, because he saved him, or simply because of Xiao’s tendency to dehumanize(yes i see the irony in that word usage) himself.  This by itself isn’t an issue but its often how this trait of his is treated.

Imma just list a few ways I’ve seen this be handled within Xiaoven fics. - It isn’t handled, it’s just there and accepted as a part of who he is in the story - It isn’t handled but his trait is treated as source of humor within the story - Venti(and others) roll with it (finding humor in it, just cant change it, encouraging it, making jokes about it, etc.) - Venti takes advantage of it(whether accidentally or purposely) - it’s actually addressed(by Venti or someone else or the narration- can go a number of ways, but just- even a brief reference to the fact that its not a good mindset fits in here) - savior!Venti(Where venti disagrees with it but the way it’s written gives off “god among mortals” vibes- like he’s just being humble and truly is above him in reality) - its the focus of the story  - not directly addressed but shown to be destructive.  - they chose not to not include this in the story’s characterization of Xiao(just saying that this is valid ahead of time) Theres others but i have a lot already.  Note that I tend to read more ‘serious-toned’(idk if that makes sense) fics so that may skew my perception

Now there’s a few that i have issues with on their own- both instances of it not being handled, Venti(and others) rolling with it, Venti takes advantage of it(purposely(and without good intent)), and savior!Venti. Xiao not only has this trait, but he is unfamiliar with what is normal in relationships or emotions as a result of isolation and inexperience. He is also either not aware of or not concerned with what is considered strictly “healthy.” Combining these makes for a rather dangerous combination and just accepting it as “oh he’s just like that, it’s who he is” or making it out to be something funny- It’s not wrong or bad by any means necessarily, and I could still possibly enjoy it to an extent depending on a series of different factors, but its- not as often.  Even in the case where I do enjoy reading it however, I would still feel uncomfortable sharing it with or recommending it to others because in the first instance it feels like normalizing a destructive and dangerous mindset, and in the second case it does the same while simultaneously making a joke of it. It’s the same deal with Venti or other characters rolling with it, but that’s probably gonna be mentioned later too. Not to say that this is a “wrong” way to handle it, that it makes the fic bad, or that authors even are normalizing anything by doing so, just that in my specific instance- not a fan. 

I’ll get to the others when i talk more about Venti, but for now: It’s the focus of the story. I think I saw like... 2? where the story was like- focused on this and why its a problem which- power to them, address those real world problems like a boss- but also i wouldn’t actively seek it out or anything- like, good job, but doing so just leaves it open neutrally for other factors to decide how good a story i think it is. 

not directly addressed but shown to be destructive. You’d think i wouldn’t like this- but frankly in fanfiction not everyone wants to address every character flaw verbally because it can through off story, narration, dialogue, and general flow to do so. This can be with an event, an action, a dialogue, a mere comment, making it actually fit into the it’s actually addressed category except that its- subtle enough to make its own category. plus i live for show not tell- in everything- its a thing. im- very much a fan of when the fics do this but the subtlety is easy to miss and its not common so- 

It’s actually adressed- doesnt have to be a lot- just mention anywhere or imply anywhere that maybe idolizing someone as a god and savior and being in a relationship with them while having little knowledge of standards, emotions, relationships, or healthy behaviors in general- maybe isnt the smartest idea in the word. (”Call me Venti, not Barbatos” by itself is not enough to fit in this category tho as a note)

-

Now lets talk about Venti...

uh.... those who have followed me for awhile will probably already know this but... I have a lot of opinions on Venti and a pretty- “niche(?)” perception of his characterization that isn’t shared by a lot of others- so I don’t actually read as much Venti fanfic in general as you might expect because I often end up disagreeing with how writers portray him, which again, in no way is their characterization wrong, but- “their perceived truth” conflicts with “my perceived truth” and by extent so does the characterization, though neither is any more correct than the other from an objective point of view, if that makes sense... but anyways now that that’s said, moving on before this becomes a philosophy lecture, as fun as that would be for me.  I’ll try to keep my “perceived truth” out of this for the first bit. 

Venti’s response to this: 

He rolls with it: this depends on the mood of the fanfiction. If they dont put a lot of stress on that trait of Xiao’s it totally fine but if the trait seems to be a major part of Xiao’s character, it seems like normalization once more. (more on this later)

he takes advantage of it purposely: if its an AU or something and Venti’s like a villain(i saw a few) then- villain venti isnt my cup of tea but i have no qualms. If they don’t portray Venti in a negative light while having him take advantage however that’s a bit uncomfortable to read for me because it feels like normalizing taking advantage of that mindset as well as the mindset itself. However, i did see a number of instances of Venti using it as leverage for like- self care- which i definitely have no qualms. Xiao: [insert probably destructive idolizing statement about being indebt] Venti: How bout you pay me back by actually sleeping for once smh or other variations are okay and depending on the vibe are actually a really fun dynamic as long as it doesnt turn into romanticizing or normalizing it, y’know?

Venti accidentally taking advantage of it.... I love angst- and in most of these theres a sense of guilt when he realizes- and i just think thats a lovely way of addressing the dangers of such a mindset for both sides. As long as it doesn’t keep repeating to the point of romanticization its totally cool to read in my eyes(not irl ofc). If Venti never realizes he accidentally took or is taking advantage it feels a bit like normalization, and if he does but just- doesn’t care thats- a rip.

savior!Venti...... i- i hate. the story giving off vibes that Xiao’s mindset is technically correct while Venti oh so humbly tells him to treat him as an equal like the wonderful and charitable person he is.... i just- no. of course thats over dramatizing it- I think the main thing that gives it this vibe is when Venti doesn’t seem either concerned, surprised, uncomfortable, or otherwise have a negative feeling towards Xiao’s mindset. Just- it makes the whole thing weird in my eyes when Venti doesnt really seem to have his own reason to oppose the mindset idk- 

-

fact time!

Venti is the god of freedom. His backstory is freeing Mondstadt from a god’s tyrannical reign. His origin is a windsprite, just another breeze bringing changes for the better. His form is a nameless boy who played an instrument and then died, thus failing at his only dream and only ever accomplishing anything because of the help of others. He slept for a thousand years after the archon war to avoid putting Mond under the rule of yet another tyrannical god. He only even became a god because Andrius chose to let him. He wouldn’t have even had that chance if the nameless bard had survived, he’d remain just another wind while his friend ascended to godhood. Venti sacrifices his own power for his people’s freedom. 

now that I’ve laid out a number of canon facts, time for opinions:

Venti has little to no desire to be seen as a god. He thrives in, comes from, and emphasizes a lack of superiority in quite nearly everything. The first Ragnvindir, who canonically turned his back on Venti after Decarabian’s fall, likely did so because one- he anticipated power would corrupt and Venti would soon become just another tyrannical god, two- he suspected Venti used the nameless bard in an attempt to rise to godhood, or three- idk insert other possibilities to acknowledge again that i could totally be wrong.

Look me in the eyes and tell me Venti wouldnt trade godhood for his friend in an instant. His godhood was only granted to him because his friend died and could easily serve to constantly remind him of what could have been and what he lost. Venti takes no enjoyment from being seen as superior and in my opinion, I feel that it could actually make him largely uncomfortable when his divinity and abilities as an archon get involved-

also self promotion for my favorite posts- check out #archon war era venti if thats interesting to you

so anyway Venti rolling with it or making jokes about it just doesn’t sit right with me.- 

-

Okay! enough talking about that mindset!

idk- i have... a few/lot of other gripes and stuff or just things that kinda throw off the vibe for me but that’s the main one plus my general personal pickiness when it come to Venti fanfics- but this has gotten long enough already- 

idk i just felt like rambling about it and i haven’t done a long post in a while so-

again, I love the ship and its actually one of my favorites- just the fanfic isnt my thing..... that doesn’t mean i don’t still love it and come up with a whole ton of brainrot and ideas on it tho lmao

Why I Find the Stories in the Sonic Comics Dislikable and Toxic than the Animated or Game Series.

I had to post this. 

So pretty sure that most of the watchers that’s read my posts on here are asking “Why’re you giving so much flack and dislike to the Sonic comics?”

And to that I say “I’ve got a LONG list of said reasons!”

When the first Archie Sonic Comics came out, I got hooked on it. The stories were fun, whimsical and just as enjoyable to read as it is on the game. BUT come around the 2000′s and THIS is where the shit hit the fan...

First we had the infamous “Bitchy Sally”, where one writer had the “Brilliant idea” to not ONLY make Sally look like a bitch, but ACTED like one as well, even going as far as straight up SLAPPING Sonic for making HIS CHOICE, ON HIS OWN, about still helping to save the day!

The writer in this story, BULLSHIT MOVE, DUDE! Sally’s a FREEDOM FIGHTER who’d rather FIGHT WITH HER FRIENDS, NOT BE “Daddy’s Little Princess” and sit on a throne all day! 

First off, that’s COMPLETELY OOC of her, both personality wise and romantic wise with Sonic!  Second, WHY would she choose to just “Rule the kingdom inside” while her friends are on missions! In case anyone hasn’t read the past issues, she and Sonic FORMED the new Freedom Fighters AFTER the disappearance of the original Freedom Fighters! Third, YOU'RE NOT GONNA TELL ME THAT EVERYONE WHO READ THAT INFAMOUS "SALLY SLAP" ISSUE AND BREAKUP ISSUE AREN'T PISSED AT THE GUY WHO WROTE THAT, BECAUSE HE'S JUST A BUTTHURT FANBOY WHO NEVER CARED ABOUT THE FANS OF THE COMICS, BUT ONLY CARED ABOUT HIMSELF! Fourth, Writing comics about characters acting OUT OF CHARACTER like that are NOT WANTED in the comics! Also, WE NEVER ASKED FOR ANY "REALISM" CRAP FROM ANYBODY, EVEN IF THEY'RE FANFIC WRITERS WHO SUDDENLY TURNED INTO "HEAD WRITERS"!

SPEAKING of which, people like Ian Flynn are the reason WHY the Sonic Comic fandom is toxic, along with it's fans. Ever since Ian's been the head writer in both Archie and IDW comics, he's just been throwing "Ideas" this way and that, making up excuses for why his "Ideas" are "Amazing and logical".But in all honesty, they're complete and utter crap! Especially the comics in the 2012 issues: Sally's robotization with no clear explanation on WHY she's the ONLY ONE to be robotized (PRETTY SURE that Sonic, Eggman and Snively WEREN'T the oNLY LIVING BEINGS on that damn Death Egg or whatever!) Bunnie's derobotization via MAGIC OF THE CHAOS EMERALD! (She had her ORIGINAL robotized limbs SURGICALLY REMOVED and REPLACED WITH PROSTHETIC LIMBS, so her being derobotized wouldn't even HAPPEN!) Bunnie abandoning her friends to seek "gaining robotic limbs again". (Utter OOC ridiculouness! She's not just abandoning her friends here, she's ALSO putting Antoine's sacrifice in VAIN and WORTH NOTHING!) Robian/AI hate. (This was already, ALREADY, done in the past issues with Robian Racism, NOW we have this no nonsense AI Racism against NICOLE, who BUILT THE CITY for the citizens, and Ian just made them sound like a bunch of ungrateful racists because "OH, she was BRAINWASHED and used for EVIL! SHE'LL DESTROY US ALL!!!" Bunch of crap that wasn't needed or asked...) Oh and the fact that the editor's "Allowed" Ian's "Other M" universe to exist in the comic...Last time I checked, that was Ian's PERSONAL FAN COMIC, not finished btw! So for them to bring THAT tripe into the "Official Sonicverse", nope! Shouldn't have happened! Fan characters maybe, but NOT fan worlds... It sounds like a Delusional Fanboy Dream.... SMH

And can we talk about how Ian basically did ANOTHER year long "Arc" with the ZOMBOT VIRUS? His stories, just like the ones in Archie, NEVER made sense! "Metal virus can infect organic things, but NOT inorganic things. But make it so that if it touches any article of clothing on a character's body, they're instantly turned into a Zombot."Uh, what kind of logic is THAT? Yeah, that's like saying "Zombies turn living beings into zombies from being attacked, but let's make it so that they can turn items like plushies and electronics into zombies as well, for added SHOCK VALUE!". Bullshit alert...I mean it's fine that everyone liked the arc, but I don't. Firstly, we already have a BUNCH of Zombie Apocalypse things in media already. From Pride and Prejudice to the Archie Gang. It's just... It feels more like a trend than a genre anymore, and doing that every time just makes it feel "Blah" in the future. And second, WHY was Ian even writing arcs for ANOTHER year or two now, AGAIN!? The first time was in the Archie Sonic, and that lasted for 2+ YEARS! Do you have ANY idea how pissed off I was about that? To wait and wait and wait for ANYTHING about when Sally was going to rescued, Bunnie to come back or Antoine to awaken again, only to hear that "The Editors wanted the Freedom Fighters to be cut out permanently." or whatever, "But Ian saved the day by CONVINCING them to keep them around!" or whatever! Only to give us some bullshit excuses for the continuous "Arc" because "Realism, yo! Gotta make the comics as close to REAL as possible!"

IT'S A COMIC BOOK BASED ON A SONIC CARTOON SERIES, IT ALREADY HAS THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF DRAMA AND "DARKNESS" BEFORE YOU CAME ALONG!

And to make the rest of the fans WAIT and WAIT until you were READY to finish the arc, is STUPID! NOT TO MENTION THAT IT WAS NEVER RESOLVED BECAUSE OF THAT DAMN KEN PENDERS COURT CASE! So you guys just shrugging your shoulders and being like "Welp, time to just leave it unfinished and do a reboot fo the comic series" is a pisspoor move!

And on top of THAT, some of the fans are cleaning up YOUR MESSES and picking up where you guys failed and left off! Which ALSO meant that they have to ANSWER THE UNANSWERED QUESTIONS YOU HACKS NEVER COMPLETELY ANSWERED! So THANKS, DUDES. THANKS for just giving up on the fans!But the one thing that pissed me off even more, was when Ian and another person BASICALLY wrote off the "SonSal" pairing and went straight into the Sally/Nicole pairing! As in a living being and an AI being a COUPLE! Before you guys throw any hate at me, I want to point out that I have no problem with any characters being in the LGBT+ community, nor have any problems with shipping which characters. But to just suddenly make Sally and Nicole into a couple...Why? No seriously, why? To me, Sally and Nicole were more like best friends and sisters, not to mention that shipping a character that's alive with a character that's nothing but artificial intelligence and robotics is....Again, WHY?And from wht I heard, Ian's excuse was because "I'm sick of the SonSal/SonAmy fights going on, so those couples DON'T EXIST TO ME!" is just being a man-child who won't, once again, care about the fans. Oh and the toxicity from the SalCole pairing is beyond stupid, especially on Twitter. I made a comment about how I only saw Sally and Nicole as sister and best friends more than a couple, but this "Bitch" decides to jab her two cents in my face and be like "OH WELL THEY'RE AN ACTUAL COUPLE BECAUSE IT'S CANON, BLAH BLAH BLAH!" (I wish I had the Tweets, but I blocked this toxic person because "I'M right and YOU'RE (Me) WRONG! And ALSO, I'm a part of the LGBT+ Community so that makes me even MORE RIGHT!" mentality is beyond stupid!)I also want to point out that her excuse as for why she thinks the SalCole pairing is "Canon" is because "Well this woman in the staff MADE it canon and whatever, so...Here's proof of that bullshit that went down: https://twitter.com/MistyKSnow/status/1455694958891913217 And this: https://twitter.com/CooperGal24/status/1455699902957293570Also, congratulations @MISTYKSNOW, you've not ONLY made yourself look like a complete jackass by calling everybody HOMOPHOBIC and QUEERPHOBIC, you're ALSO defending your "Logic" with NO proof or evidence that Sally and Nicole were EVER a couple! Like I said in that Twitter post: JUST STARGAZING AND NICOLE BEING A LIVING PERSON TEMPORARILY! IT ISN'T BEING GAY! Also, this was in the 2000's, so the LGBT+ community was slowly rising at that point I believe. You're wrong, don't force your opinions on others. Also ALSO, what part of "NO ONE ASKED!" do you NOT get at all!? No one asked for YOUR penny, so mind your own damn business!

Ya know, I’ve once read an article about how Mario Bros, Kirby and Metroid were ORIGINALLY planned to be a comic series in the Archie Comics, but Nintendo decides to throw that idea away because they don’t like it... Methinks that all of this bullshit in the Sonic Comics, along with the toxicity from fans, just MIGHT be the real reason why the folks at Nintendo don’t want their franchises being a part of the Archie Comic series. 

And while this is a big loss for the fans, I think Nintendo dodged a major nuke missile here.

I mean, can you IMAGINE the “Stories” that would’ve been written here? Kirby’s homeworld blowing up into cosmic pieces, Samus being reduced to a Fanboy’s wet horny dream by being the “Dumb Blonde with the mind of a Bimbo”, and about as MUCH drama in the Mario comics to make the soap opera shows of today look like a comedy skit...?

Like I said, NUKE MISSILE DODGED! ANYWAYS, that's why I find the Sonic Comics a WHOLE lotta toxic here, and you can see why now, too. Sorry for the vent, but hope you guys have a great day!

[yuichi-ro]

haha gonna expose u in all ur slutty glory for zeno robinson lmao it cant be helped smh. he definitely uses a voice closer to hunter’s but its also a bit more playful yet mature… very gud voice so ur gonna have a field day XD

omg kisaki’s daughter would be the more competent version of senju XD uses her impeccable charm to get what she wants certainly.

i just imagine that one skid that is like

Kisaki: “Alright smash his kneecaps and he will talk, I am at a parent teacher conference right now. Anyway you said she enjoyed finger painting thats great”

the little princess gets escorted to the private school in a limousine every day by kisaki’s most trusted second in commands on days he cannot bring her to school himself. only the best crayons, best paper, best teachers, nothing is good enough for his little girl and he is not stopping at anything.

also lets be honest, its not hanma’s kid who needs to be kept away from kisaki’s daughter, its the other way around XD

little menace probably also helps her daddy at his job because she is the best at interrogation because its just 7 hours of her non stop repeating the plot of my little pony to the captives until it drives them insane

also pls imagine kisaki back at the job w bebe in the baby carrier so wifey can catch a break, just giving the meeting like normal and not acknowledging shiet omfg

many many thoughts

-🌌momo

gonna be a whore on main and have to turn in my god damn dom card....god damn it I knew this day would come 😒😔

ASDFGHJKL I KNOW THAT ADUIO FROM SOMEWHERE AND WHY DOES IT FIT KISAKI SO WELL TOO ASDFGHJKL HIM NON CHALANTLY TALKING TO HIS DAUGHTER'S TEACHER BUT HANMA WON'T QUIT ASKING QUESTIONS ASDFGHJKL

Kisaki's daughter goes to private school while Hanma's kid goes to public school and frankly Kisaki does not hide his grimace every time his daughter talks to the "rift raft" even if Hanma's like, his only fucking friend 😂

ok but Kisaki is letting his daughter read word for word her 100k fanfic as well as her 50k character analysis on Rainbow dash and what she brings to the show but what could have been better. And already the kidnap victim is sobbing to make it stop. To which Kisaki tells them to shut up his daughter has very many creative ideas and needs a third party audience (cuz you know Kisaki has listened to the growing fanfic and tells his daughters how perfect she is as a writer but she demands a third party editor hence why there's someone tied up in your kitchen) At this point they're sobbing and your daughter flat out says daddy's gonna shoot them in the foot if they keep interrupting her reading. Kisaki pats his daughter on the head and just goes "that's right dear, reading comprehension is very important in this family" 😂

please tired slightly flakey new dad Kisaki who (of course) only hands his kid off to Hanma. But it lasts only thirty seconds cuz Hanma's doing like fucking airplane with the five month old and Kisaki's freaking out in the middle of a meeting 😭 Hanma's just holding Kisaki's baby above his fucking 6'5 head like "Man it's fine, I did this with my kid and he's totally fine." And Kisaki is trying to scale Hanma like King Kong to the tower and everyone in Toman is just watching this unfold when this was supposed to be a meeting about lost assets and failing funds 😭
