#i just want something that'll make me not want to kms

[weeb-cheese]

job searching sucks. wym all jobs related to my special interests would require me to live across the country from where I currently live, and all the jobs close to me are just retail jobs that are a 30+ minute drive away and will guarantee another mental break down a few months into the job (that's been the trend when I do those jobs)

DUET - lemme kms (chapter 3)

You stood in the middle of the dance studio, your arms crossed tightly over your chest as you stared at Jay, who was leaning against the mirrored wall with that infuriating smirk on his face. It was the only time you had to reherase the duet for regionals. Just a couple of hours four times a week. That was it.

"Alright, let’s get this over with,’’ you huffed, tossing your water bottle aside. ‘’We need to Strat with the basics. What kind of vibe are we going for?’"

Jay raised an eyebrow, pushing off the wall and strolling over to you with an easy and confident walk. "Hip hop obviously. Something cool and fun would be good."

"Cool and fun?" your tone was skeptical. "We're supposed to impress the judges though, not make them laugh."

Jay rolled his eyes, hands on his hips. "You're taking this too seriously, sunshine."

Your eyes narrowed at the nickname. He had been calling you that ever since you got paired up, and it was driving you crazy. "Don't call me that," you snapped, your voice cold. "And this is serious, we don't have time to mess around."

"Relax, sunshine," he repeated with a grin, clearly enjoying how much it irked you. "We'll figure it out; we've got weeks to perfect this."

"Weeks that'll fly by if we don't start working on the choreo right now," you walked over to the sound system, scrolling through your playlist.

Jay followed you, leaning in closer than necessary as he looked at your phone screen. You could feel his breath on your neck, and you had to resist the urge to shove him away. “How about this one?” you suggested, pointing to a bass-heavy track with a strong beat.

Jay made a face. “Too slow. We need something that’ll really get the crowd going. What about this?” He reached over and selected a fast-paced, aggressive track.

You frowned. “That’s too fast. The judges won’t even be able to see the moves with a beat that fast.”

“That’s because you can’t keep up,” Jay teased, nudging your shoulder.

You shot him a glare. “I can keep up just fine, and you know it. But it’s not about speed, it’s about precision.”

“Speed and precision,” Jay countered, clearly enjoying the back-and-forth. “We can do both.”

You rolled your eyes and finally gave in. “Fine. We’ll try it your way, but if it doesn’t work, we’re going with my song.”

“Deal.” Jay grinned as if he’d won some great victory.

You spent the next hour trying to choreograph the first few sections of the routine, but it quickly became apparent that you were getting nowhere. You wanted clean, sharp movements that emphasized control and technique. Jay, on the other hand, was all about flair and big, showy moves, like he usually was. Every time you suggested something, Jay had a counter-suggestion, and it always ended in bickering.

“Your arms need to be straighter,” You said, demonstrating the move for the hundredth time. “Like this.”

Jay imitated you with an exaggerated motion, a mocking smile on his lips. “Like this, sunshine? Or should I be even stiffer?”

Your jaw clenched. “Stop fucking calling me that! And no, it’s not about being stiff. It’s about being precise.”

“Well, you’re starting to sound like we're in the military or something. Loosen up a bit.” He leaned in closer, his smirk widening. “Or is little Miss Perfect scared of not being perfect for once?”

“That’s not—” You started, but Jay was already moving into the next part of the routine, adding a flourish that completely threw off the timing.

“See? Like this!” Jay said, his tone teasing as he twisted the move into something flashy.

“No, no, no!” You exclaimed, stepping forward to stop him. “You’re totally ruining the flow. We need to keep it tight.”

Jay laughed, clearly not taking you seriously. “You’re such a control freak, sunshine. Maybe that’s why you can’t handle a little improvisation.”

You could feel your patience wearing thin. “And maybe you’re just incapable of sticking to a plan.”

“Plans are boring. Dance is supposed to be fun, not robotic.”

“It’s not robotic if it’s done right! It’s called being disciplined, something you clearly know nothing about," you said, crossing your arms over your chest.

Jay’s grin faded slightly, and his eyes narrowed. “Maybe you should try stepping out of your comfort zone for once. Might do you some good.”

You opened her mouth to retort, but the words stuck in your throat. As much as you hated to admit it, Jay had a point—you were always focused on being perfect, and it frustrated you that he could be so relaxed about something so important. But there was no way you were going to let him know that. Instead, you just called a 5minutes break and walked over to your water bottle. You two spent the next 5 minutes without exchanging a single word, and honestly, it was relieving you.

When you went back to practice, the sun had dipped below the horizons already. The overhead lights cast a harsh glare on the polished wooden floor, reflecting the tension between the two dancers. You were sweating from exertion and frustration as you tried one last time to get through to Jay.

“Jay, can we please just focus?” you snapped, your patience hanging by a thread. You were standing in the middle of the studio, your hands clenched into fists at your sides. “We’re not getting anywhere because you won’t stop messing around!”

Jay, who had been spinning lazily on one foot with a smug grin on his face, stopped and faced you. “I’m not messing around, sunshine. I’m trying to keep things light. You’re the one who’s being all tense and uptight.”

“There you go again!” Your voice was sharp, echoing off the walls of the empty studio. “You keep calling me that like it’s some kind of joke. I’m done with this, Jay. I’m done with you not taking anything seriously!”

Jay’s expression hardened, but he couldn’t resist getting in one last jab. “Maybe if you didn’t take everything so seriously, you wouldn’t be so miserable right now.”

Your eyes flashed with anger. “I’m miserable because you’re impossible to work with!”

“Funny, I was thinking the same thing about you.” Jay crossed his arms over his chest, his posture defiant. “Maybe we’re just not meant to do this together.”

“For once, I actually agree with you,” you shot back, grabbing your water bottle and towel from the floor. You were fuming, your entire body tense with irritation. “I’m done for tonight. I can’t stand another minute of this,” you said, taking your bag and belongings and heading towards the door.

Jay shrugged as if your words didn’t bother him, but you caught the slight flicker of something in his eyes—something that almost looked like regret. “Fine. We’ll pick it up wednesday, sunshine.”

You didn't even respond this time. You just turned on your heel and stromed out of the studio, the door slamming shut behind you. As you walked down the hallway, you tried to calm your racing heart. You hated how easily Jay could rile you up.

When you reached the exit of the building, you found Chaeryeong and Sunghoon waiting for you in the lobby. Chaeryeong was scrolling through her phone, but Sunghoon immediately looked up when he heard your footsteps. His eyes narrowed as he took in your flushed face and the tight line of your mouth.

“Hey, what happened?” Sunghoon asked, his voice laced with concern. He stepped closer, his protective instincts kicking in as he studied your expression.

You shook her head, trying to brush it off. “Nothing. Just a frustrating practice.”

Chaeryeong looked up from her phone and raised an eyebrow. “Frustrating? You look like you’re ready to kill someone.”

“Yeah, and I’m guessing that someone’s name starts with a ‘J’ and ends with an ‘ay’,” Sunghoon said, his tone darkening. “What did he do this time?”

You sighed, running a hand through your damp hair due to the sweat. “He just kept… I don’t know, he kept pushing my buttons. He wouldn’t stop calling me ‘sunshine’ and acting like none of this matters. It’s like he enjoys fucking with me.”

Sunghoon’s jaw tightened, and his eyes flashed with anger. “He called you that again? I’m gonna have a word with him.”

“Sunghoon, it’s fine,” you said quickly, grabbing his arm before he could march back into the studio. “It’s just Jay being Jay. He knows how to get under my skin, and I let him. I’ll deal with it.”

“Yeah, but you shouldn’t have to,” Sunghoon replied, his voice softer but still edged with protectiveness. “You’re working your ass off, and he’s just… messing with you? That’s not okay.”

“Hoon's right,” Chaeryeong chimed in, slipping her phone into her pocket. “Jay’s always been a bit of a pain, but if he’s making this harder for you, we’ll back you up. You don’t have to deal with him alone.”

You smiled faintly, grateful for your friends’ support. “Thanks, guys. But really, it’s okay. I’m just tired and frustrated. I’ll figure it out.”

Sunghoon wasn’t convinced. “If he keeps this up, I’m not going to just stand by. You know that, right?”

“I know,” you replied softly, reassuringly squeezing his arm. “But I can handle Jay. He’s not worth getting worked up over.”

Sunghoon’s expression softened slightly, but you could still see the protectiveness in his eyes. “Just remember, you don’t have to handle everything on your own.”

Chaeryeong nodded in agreement. “We’ve got your back, babes. Always.”

Your heart warmed at their words, the frustration from the practice starting to ebb away. “I know. And I appreciate it. Now, can we get out of here, please? I need to clear my head.”

“Absolutely,” Chaeryeong said, looping her arm through yours. “Let’s get you some food and forget about annoying dance partners for a while.”

Sunghoon lingered for a moment, glancing back at the studio doors with a frown. “If he tries anything else, you tell me. Got it?”

“Got it,” you promised, giving him a small smile.

As the three of you walked out into the cool night air, you couldn’t help but feel a little better. The tension from the practice was still there, simmering under the surface, but with Chaeryeong and Sunghoon by your side, it didn’t feel quite as overwhelming.

[turian]

beloved gamer mutual & comrade @rhubarbspring tagged me to do a video game about me ( tysm for tagging !! truly loved reading all ur game thoughts. <3 ) explanations behind my choices under the cut.

(also, i had to cheat a little bit in the "you love, everyone hates" category, because i don't think people on tumblr hate da2, but one of my best friends despises it because of reused assets and combat designed more for consoles than pcs. and i can't remember any other controversial beloved games right now. the best i can do is games i love that i'm not sure anyone remembers? imagine ubisoft ballet? which, like. do people hate that. i don't think so).

tagging @cowsquirrel @malcriada @sakraya @ansburg @anoramactir + literally anyone i might have missed who wants to do this

favourite game of all time: so, look, i hate her as much as i love her. i always go back to new vegas even though i have a lot of criticisms of it - i had a realization recently after the release of the fallout show that while maybe i was projecting intergenerational trauma onto the game and using it to process some things, there is a lot in the game that is extremely imperialistic, even as it dabbles in anti imperialism. i can't get into all that here - better essays than i'm capable of have already been written on new vegas - but i also have to admit that new vegas taught me to see game writing differently, and helped me a great deal in improving my own writing. it's also just really entertaining playing later games by obsidian and picking out the new vegas elements. i think that new vegas gets praised too readily for being progressive when in reality it's only the most progressive game in the fallout franchise, and i think every time i return to it i'm noticing one more thing that'll kind of be making my eye twitch. but, yeah, i think it would also be dishonest to not include it here, regardless of my mixed feelings, because i keep going back, and because there are so many angles to it, and because i keep catching myself comparing other games to it.

i think a lot about like........... how so many themes i can relate to exist within the narrative of new vegas, but that doesn't feel entirely intentional. like, benny is so real to me because ! he was forced to assimilate into this culture that was not his to survive. and ulysses as well. and like!!!! yeah idk. going insane. i feel very similarly about dragon age elves tbh i'm like okay i feel seen but also this game is racist! kms :') will be projecting hard and taking so much psychic damage

many such cases tho </3 baldur's gate 3 and their treatment of the gur is always going to be a mix of relatable and uncomfortable to me

favourite series: soulsborne! i like how bleak it is, love the theme of death and rebirth, love how thankless the games can be, and i also love how the combat reminds me of muay thai. had a coach explain something to me using dark souls combat as an example once. i didn't really get these games at first, until i saw my best friend playing - she is ridiculously good at them - and then i sort of realized that they're just combat puzzles, and that like... they're kind of about honing patience, i guess? and after that they really became my favourite.

best soundtrack: honorary mentions: mass effect and dark souls both have some individual tracks i revisit on the daily, and skyrim's secunda is beautiful. but hollow knight doesn't miss, and i love how every track matches its environment.

favourite protagonist: i grew up in a really dysfunctional somewhat criminal family so like... lol. i feel seen when i look at arthur morgan <3 him and charles are both close to my heart. john can stay too ig

favourite villain: SO okay, maybe this is cheating a little, but. the reapers from mass effect. went into that game with zero spoilers, and finding out that they were in fact cosmic horror games was so <3

this would probably have gone to new vegas except benny (and also ulysses + i think he's more narrative foil than antagonist, as is benny) literally did nothing wrong in my eyes and after that point it's like... who is the main antagonist? the ncr and legion both? like yeah they're interesting but...

best story: i haven't actually finished pathologic on my own yet. kind of obsessed, though. just feels responsible to put it here. honorary mentions to new vegas, some fromsoft titles, twd, imagine ubisoft ballet........ (i love her and i miss her).

i feel like a lot of story games i've played actually have garbage stories with good characters, which is why they're not here. baldur's gate 3 and ME, for example. or like... ME has a great story at first but they fuck up the ending so badly that a popular theory i've heard passed around essentially boils down to "it was all a dream!"

have not played but want to: i was actually supposed to apply for a job with the team that made these games !! i didn't because it would have required relocation to the US, but. idk i feel like they keep showing up, always highly recommended, and i think i own one? so yeah, i should really get around to that.

you love, everyone hates: again, i cheated on this one. i don't think people on here hate dragon age 2.

you hate, everyone loves: skyrim, detroit: become human, stardew valley (because it's a weird little cottagecore colonialism game but also because i don't really vibe with the art style and i get stressed as fuck in it because nothing is happening... it is simply not for me), and fallout 3 and 4 (because they're masquerading as games with choices but they fully aren't, they suffer from bethesda writing, and they are super unapologetically racist and imperialist). i mean like... not mad at any of my friends who like these games i just cannot play them. i don't really think any of the games on my list are unimpeachable, tbf.

favourite art style: disco elysium !! it's so <3 like, i also love it for other reasons!! but every time i play it i end up wanting to draw.

favourite ending: new vegas has four endings. i feel differently about them all, but the independent ending is very much shaped by the infrastructure the player assembles during a playthrough, and while it is maybe imperfect and very open ended in some ways i like how it doesn't really reassure the player. also, i really like certain elden ring endings and the dark souls 1 ending. and pathologic.

favourite boss fight: hollow knight has a lot i've really enjoyed (particularly hornet's). for elden ring, malenia is the fave, tho <3 when i defeat her i tend to feel really disappointed. like, get up. let's go again. parrying her is extremely satisfying.

childhood game: we like... found out we had some cousins which is wild because this has been a tiny family since Certain Incidents A Long Time Ago and they also had nintendo ds access and they were not into this game. and like... look, i'm not saying it's great, but it had dark souls ish combat? like, you could lock on? you could roll? and i ended up replaying it as an adult and being like. huh. not that bad.

+ imagine ubisoft ballet ily

relaxing games: distance, injustice 2 (i main red hood & black canary but i like playing robin too. it's super imbalanced and they still haven't nerfed starfire !! and it's incredibly funny like good for her), dark souls 1, and elden ring.

stressful games: again stardew valley because i would play with friends and it was like oh god i need to leave. i do not know what to do, i am useless, i am understimulated

+ red dead online is not a good game to play without substantial backup . so glad i had horse insurance because if i hadn't my only friend in that world would be dead. that said, i did like to hunt in that game + play the fps levels with groups

games you always come back to: new vegas but maybe she'll release me someday. idk. also unfortunately i didn't include it earlier but i keep going back to the sims 4 and baldur's gate 3. and fromsoft titles because i sometimes just crave that combat.

guilty pleasure: new vegas again!!! i guess i kind of talked about my extremely complicated feelings when i first spoke about it, but yeah. there's just so much to unpack and i'm never going to forgive it for a lot of things. the horrors and the joys are both numerous but the joys will never not be tainted by the horrors

tons of hours played: elden ring + bg3 + new vegas + mass effect. i don't have the hours of new vegas and mass effect available tho as they are confined to a now dead xbox 360

[mellow-worlds]

I feel good with my ed. I don't want to kms anymore. I feel pretty good honestly. I feel alright. I think my progress with losing weight is going alright. I keep saying ed. I made a wager with myself that I can officially call myself anorexic when my lovely intermittent fasting app says I've had 80 fasts in total. My goal is to get to an underweight bmi which somehow is around 10kgs for me. I don't think I ever lost so much weight in any of my past runs. It'll be fine, though. I'm happy to try. I'll do it. 80 fasts in total should equal around three months. Time flies. So far I have around 30 fasts. Some are longer than 24 hours, so that's important to keep in mind. I'm kind of proud of myself. Kind of. I'm happy I'm below the redacted number of kgs now. I'm still so fat but I feel like it's a little more acceptable now.

I keep thinking about how lovely it'll be when my friends notice. It'll be so lovely to be underweight. It'll be so lovely to know that they're talking about my weight behind my back. It'll be so lovely to know that they'll see just how skinny I can be. Let's find out how skinny that would actually be. Can't wait. Can't wait. I'm a little hungry, but not enough to actually feel like eating. Idk. I could easily eat something and like 2 months ago I surely would've. But now? Haha, not with me. I'm a whole new person now. I have priorities now. My head hurts a little. I don't think it's because I'm not eating that much, because today I had 2 sandwiches and 1 GIANT piece of cheesecake. Kind of regret it. I should start eating healthier things. It's fine. I can do this. It's still not the calorie requirements for an adult person, right? So that means I'm fine. It shoudl mean I'm fine. I should be a little more careful though. I should buy some healthier foods tomorrow. I'll do that. Grocery shopping when ed is so exciting. I really love it. I should really find some things to eat. Here's some ideas: juice, apples, berries, yogurt, oatmeal, fruit bars, those bread things with cream cheese, tomatoes, carrots, cucumber, paprika, milk bread. I should make my own sandwiches that are healthier than the canteen ones. But I like eating at uni. Hmmm. I'll figure something out. I'll be fine. I jsut really, really like food :) eating food is nice. But disgusting, kind of. Buying food I really like is actually kind of dangerous, but I'll just be careful and mostly buy the really healthy things like carrots and apples. I can always eat as many things of that as I want to.

I'm not really happy about being below redacted kgs now, I'm more just glad. It's kind of a relief. It makes me feel optimistic about the future. And I really want to keep going. I'm just so glad. It's kind of unbelievable. I've got to say, my urge to weigh myself is super strong, but I really should wait at least a couple of days in between weigh ins because I just couldn't handle gaining weight and real progress is only noticeable after some time. I should go work out. I said I would before my shower tonight. Still have uni stuff to do but it's fine. I'll work out, shower, and go to bed. That'll be nice. I won't exercise for long and it's a little frustrating to knwo that I'll never be a true anorexic because I don't excessively exercise, which only counts if you do it for like 3 hours a day, and I ain't got the time or will to do that. I'm just happy doing my crappy home workouts. It's something. I'm happy I'm starting to get back to exercising. It'll be lovely. Well, being thin will. And I kind of like to run. And like... P.... is so fit.... and strong...... and it's so attractive and I don't want to be a shapeless lump next to him. I also really should be careful about muslce loss, not that I actrually eat that little haha, but still. Exercising is just super important to 1. build muscle and 2. burn calories. Burning calories is the best hahahahahha what are you even talking about. It feels like I'm starting to lose it again. Nah, it's fine. My ed just makes me a little happy. Not really. But at least it's something in my life. I can always rely on it. It's always there for me and always will give me something to think about. Checking my intermittent fasting app to see how long I've been not eating really makes me kinda happy. Well, not happy. But it's like :3 every time more time passed than I anticipated. And speaking of which, it's been six hours. Most people would get hangry just about now. Not me B) staying cool and hungry. But skinny. Eventually. It just means I'm doing great.

[black--eyeliner]

vent i guess

So many things are going so wrong in my life. I hate mostly everything about myself, like the only thing that's okayish about myself from my point of view is my body and even then I don't like some parts of it and I dislike my voice. I dislike most of my clothes. My mental health is so bad and my physical health isn't far behind and I am just so goddamn exhausted alllll the time and I am just so used to being in pain.

My family (besides my sister) sucks and most of my arguments with some family members end up with me sitting on my bedroom floor silently crying and wating to hurt myself or kms(I won't tho, dw). Soon enough I gotta find a job but WHO WOULD EVEN HIRE ME??? Who would hire this mess of a person that can barely take care of itself????

I love art but I barely do it even tho it's one of the things I most love doing, but in general I struggle doing things I want to do unless they offer immediate gratification!!!! And it's even worse with things I don't want to do.

For a long time the way I dealt with my life struggles was just to not think about it, to never think about it. For a long time I never wanted anything because I'd learned that whenever I wanted or felt anything, I'd get dissapointed so I was just. Idk for some time I never felt strongly about anything I guess. Now I want things again like normal humans do and it's nice but also it sucks but I don't wanna go back to not caring about anything.

Pretty sure my mom struggles with disordered eating and I am surprised she hasn't mamaged to give me an eating disorder yet. Whatever.

I think I am gonna go eat some cake. Maybe that'll make me feel better.

But like. I NEED something to change!!!! I need one good thing in my life or I'll go crazy. I am already going crazy pretending everything is fine and trying to stay positive as if that's what I need in my life, positivity.

living+ liveblog under cut

barefoot swede tw

matsson with his affected lisp maybe you should hang out with roman instead of shiv who's too good for you

i have skarsgård stockholm syndrome (lol) bc i've seen him in soo many things lately

the first meeting me when i lie

TWEETS AND DRUG RUMOURS glass houses ken

a friend sent me a roman fancam the other say bc i told her he's my favourite character and it kind of annoyed me a tiny bit bc. that's not what this is but also. lbr. it's exactly what this is

roman facial tic comeback!! honestly my favourite thing kieran does

i want someone to do a hug counter per episode/season when this is all over this one is off the charts

shivyyy :'((((

roman you're not ready to fuck. you never are and i love that about you

ANNABETH GISH????????? MY LOVE

why does she give him advice about grief tho. 'it just hasn't hit you yet'? she's right but that's a really weird thing to say to a stranger

sidenote i have german subtitles on this episode because i was eating and they're the only ones available and. everybody is using like. the formal you? and that's so weird. i don't think they should do that. they're all using first names

the segregation comment should be so telling for those guys who think roman is actually right-wing. he knows shit about all ideologies he just doesn't give a shit!! (that would be very bad irl but in the show i think that's an important distinction)

roman you can't just fire people because you brought it up

is ... the presentation that day? and kendall wants to build a house? dude do you know anything about anything

who is tk. shiv lore unlocked

i used to play something like bitey with a friend in school but with. i think it's called indian burn in english? don't think that name's okay but idk what else you would call it

why is greg there

kendall looks exhausted

roman with the you're fired is like a little kid who just learned a new trick

oooh no i know that gerri outfit i know what comes next :(

this conversation hurts but also this is lifeblood to me

oh so it wasn't your dad will wash you away it was the money. that's such clever editing

roman's on such a power trip it's crazy. maybe post-grieve a little that'll make you feel better

the way he immediately regrets it and his mouth when kendall says he shouldn't is actually killing me dead

tomshiv wouldn't survive a day in a trailerpark

kendall sounds so sad when he talks about the clouds

kendall baby you're so manic and the sibs totally know it

roman pulls him out of it straight onto the other side and then leaves him alone with it that's horrible. i get it but it's horrible

is the fingers to the forehead thing a grounding technique

it's still so crazy to me that their dad just died. like JUST died. and now they have to do shit like this because the company's toast otherwise. something capitalism something humanity etc

ROMAN HUGGING THE HUGE PILLOW LMAOOO

maybe i'm an idiot but why would the guy ask him about matsson's tweet that he obviously hasn't seen?

somebody stop this how long will kendall talk about the tweet this is on l to the og level

literally laughed out loud when roman showed hugo that matsson deleted the tweet

roman in the car 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

(though the people who said roman was seriously genuinely for real horny listening to that make me fucking angry. necrophiliac believer bullshit)

the MUSIIIIIIIC

[lemonduckisnowawake]

Sorry to put this on the body of the post but MY TIME HAS COME!

Anything by KM Shea (I recommend starting with her Magiford or Timeless Fairy Tale series, if you want something big, or her King Arthurs or Elves of Lessa if you want something smaller. Also, her rgp lit under AM Sohma is great)

Kyle Robert Shultz's Afterverse books. Best of the best. 10/10. Highly recommended if you want chaos and heart

Kate Stradling if you want "one-shot" stories but in novel format. She does mostly fantasy but her Altair books are dystopian but…in the light sense, if that's anything to you?

Celeste Baxendell if you want something that'll rip your heart to shreds but still give a happy ending

Tales of Goldstone Wood for some hauntingly beautiful Christian fantasy (in my opinion, the first book is sliiiightly the weakest but still worth a read)

Blades of Acktar for non-magical but not of this world Christian fantasy. So good. This author KNOWS what she's talking about, isn't afraid to namedrop God/Jesus, but never makes it preachy

Beyond the Tales (same author as above, Tricia Mingerink) but Christian allegorical fractured fairy tales with Native American inspired kingdoms

Tara Grayce is Mingerink's alt who writes more general fantasy. Still clean and so fun

Okay, sue me but I like Paul McCusker and Chuck Black. The former wrote the Passages series, and it's probably been over a decade since I've read them...but they're basically bible stories set in another world. Chuck Black has…questionable theology to me (a bit too…pro America, I guess?) but his Knights books have interesting symbolism that compels me

Gail Carson Levine and Jessica Day George are two awesome fractured fairy tale and fantasy writers. Big recommend

T. Kingfisher has some amazing books, but I've only read two (Wizard's Guide to Defensive Baking and The Seventh Bride)

Where the Mountain Meets the Moon (Grace Lin) is a really love tale in a Chinese setting that has a lovely mythological feel to it, diving on stories and such

WR Gingell's books are ALWAYS fun (Lady of Dreams series and City Between will always be my favorites of hers)

The Ascendance trilogy by Jennifer A. Nielsen has some amazing twisty fantasy political drama but made to be palatable

AG Marshall has great fairy tale retellings that are just fun to read. Her characters are chaotic and it's so much fun

I'm very fond of Allison Tebo's books. Shorter novellas, for the most part and also fractured fairy tales (can you see a thread?)

Melanie Cellier has fun fractured fairy tales and fantasies. For me, they can be hit or miss but they're all generally nicely written

Sarah K. Wilson has so many fantasies. I've only really read her Dragon school books and they're all SO incredible (bonus points for the protagonist who uses a cane)

Britain Kalai Soderquist is also a fairy tale writer. Her two books I've read, though, operate in a regency world and take the epistolary form. Basically two women living two fairy tales writing to each other the chaos they're experiencing

Arielle Baily has a fun novel called the Icarus Aftermath which is a sci-fi and Greek mythology blend (I say fun but it's also devastating)

Kendra Merritt also has an amazing series of disabled fairy tales and a dnd-inspired book series (under KM Merritt). Heads up for lgbtq implications since I know that's not for some people

On that note, I'd also recommend Legends and Lattes but (again) lgbt pairing

Patricia C Wrede's Enchanted Forest Chronicles

CB Cook has a really fun superhero series following twins; a little too light sometimes for me but still really fun

I recommend anything by Alydia Rackham, period. If you want fantasy, Baldur's Tears or her fairy tale books are incredible. If you want something shorter, the sherlock-adjacent Mute of Pendywick Place books are a delight

Intisar Kanani, again fairy tales, is amazing I love Wingfeather Saga. It was one of my obsessions. I am ALWAYS a fan of humor that can be spun into depth

Finley Aaron - I love her fairy tales and would have started on her dragon books, except I think she stopped publishing

James Riley's books are a riot. The ones I read were his fairy-tale based ones which are amazing! Chaotic gremlin duo who should not be trusted but somehow are the most qualified for the job

Suzanne Collins' Underland Chronicles will always be a favorite of mine (ironically, I've only read one of her Hunger Games books)

Also highly recommend George MacDonald. Light Princess, Princess and the Goblin, and some of his short stories are a great place to start.

Other authors I recommend/have heard good things about that are clean: Kirsten Fichter, Deborah Grace White, Camille Peters, Kenley Davidson, Patrick W Carr, Shannon Hale, SD Smith, HL Burke, Diana Wynne Jones, Lea Doue, Christopher Healy, I don't know anymore

Actually, in general, I recommend looking at the goodreads pages of authors you like and see what they've read, too. Some of them leave reviews and the clean-writers author indie group is a web with easily followable threads. I've also found good authors by looking at general reviews and seeing authors they're compared to.

Anyway, excuse the dump of words, OP! But I wish you luck reading!

Any of you have recommendations for fantasy or sci-fi without much sexual content?

Self-published or Christian works welcome but only if they're high quality (i.e. not worse than general market fiction).

And, of course, I have to add I've read everything by Tolkien and Lewis.

Same anon. Just wanted to say I understand why you don't want to post my asks. I have stopped posting anything about spn/prequel/jensen because the fandom is very toxic. I was harassed, was told to kms during a time when I was going through a loss IRL. All over a ship(you can guess). I can only imagine how much hate I'll get if I say anything now. It's not worth it. I still love Dean so I'll be here lurking but that'll be the extent of my engagement.

i am posting this one because it makes me so angry and hurt knowing this kind of bullying goes on (and i've been bullied by completely different warring factions of the fandom, so...ugh i hear you. lmao have you truly lived in this fandom until you've been told to d-word by one set of shippers and called a delusional loser by the others? also the person who kept sending me hate messages specifically about how worthless dean was...i can only shake my head). it's a difficult line to tread - i think people should enjoy stories and participate in fandom however they like as LONG as it does not cross the lines into cruelty/harassment/various prejudices/etc - this is supposed to be FUN, but unfortunately (and this is not at all limited to spn, though we seem to deal with some extreme cases of it) fandom gets into in-fighting and can become a real stew of toxicity, and it is not okay. it's like people sometimes forget that other fans are human beings too, and while we love characters and stories and they resonate personally and uniquely, and that's why we hold them so dear, it is NEVER acceptable to harm others for the sake of fiction. that is like the exact antithesis of the point of art, which is supposed to make us think and feel and challenge and enrich us.

i am so sorry for the loss you experienced in real life. you didn't deserve to have that pain made worse, and you don't deserve to have something that means a lot to you diminished.

people sending hate over the actors is also ridiculous and uncalled for, fans need to learn how to separate those emotions out and how to address (be it positively or critically. you are allowed to support someone, you're also allowed to be frustrated/disappointed) those topics without coming after others for sharing opinions. i've mentioned many times that i don't like the term "parasocial" because i believe it's often misused, but when you cross the line into sending people death threats over different thoughts on a show or an actor, it is severely unhealthy. there's an unfortunate amount of almost...entitlement and projection?...towards the actors in our fandom, and i really wish everyone could take a step back from that and assess it.

it really does make my heart hurt that the love we've felt and shared together is an ongoing process of grief for many, and that aspects of it are souring. talking about this with a friend now, and resentment is a much more difficult thing to grapple with in ways than grief itself (what is grief if not love persevering, right? but resentment is bitter and harder to heal).

i used to enjoy writing and sharing thoughts and emotions about the story very much, and i've retreated from doing that or even posting as much spn in general because the fandom has been such a mess lately. i never felt like i had to silence myself (it's a wild feeling since i have been here forever!) before, but now i'm wary of even just sharing observations/passionate thoughts because i've gotten such cruel messages about it asdkljgf. i get why it's easier to lurk or just quietly reblog things than engage very directly. i wish i could make it better. i wish it didn't have to hurt anyone.

that said, you never have to give up your love for dean, and i hope you can find even more of the spark and comfort of it again with time. he's always with us, i know that. love for him is such an ingrained part of me that the most solace i've had is in remembering that it's formative and true and everlasting. i hope you hold onto it however you can. <3

RUMIR BB GO TO SLEEP 😭 but I only just got around to this so YES

Gonna kms my whole response got deleted I gotta retype it all

I believe it is canon, and I'm pretty sure he's from Liyue?? That's what I thought was canon anyway, I lose track of what is and isn't all the time though

I agree that he isn't careless with his money. It's like how some people are rich and still work all the time. Working all the time is how they got that rich in the first place and they can lead modest lives and only make dumb decisions sometimes. Working is a hobby atp which I don't think is the case for him but it's the same deal. Conserving wealth and not overindulging because that's the mentality that got you there and that's the mentality that'll get you further still

Also the ARLECCHINO ERASURE 😭💔💔 Idk if I can forgive this (slash joking I can't talk I forget Pulcinella exists all the time)

But yeah his use it beyond that of several of the higher ranked Harbingers in terms of political prowess but I also wonder how they calculate the positions. Because how can twinky little Dottore (a grown man I refer to as my girlfriend) be above Capitano who assumedly would be very physically strong even if mihoyo let us down and he turned out just some random mf but below peepaw (the other grown man I call my girlfriend).

The whole system is whack 😭

It depend how they measure strength because if they mean physical strength then why is there a decaying grandpa in the middle of their ranking, and if they mean political then Pantalone and Arlecchino are too low 🧐

But briefly on his association with Dottore I do ship it because I love both versions and believe in having my cake and eating it too. I love using them like I'm five and they're my suffering Barbie dolls like in something else I'm writing they're just in a back and forth to get one up over each other just because they don't want to be at the other's whims. Loverboy just smiling and nodding while internally being like 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 reminds me sm of the protagonist of that because the whole thing is told from their perspective and they get treated like the two's divorce kid 😭

They observe every weird argument they have and half of them don't even make sense because they concurrently fight about two completely different things at once. It's always petty things too 💀 like Pantalone will be like "Dottore didn't close the door when he left 🤨🤨 he did that on purpose so I'll have to get up to close it didn't he" and that bitch is just careless and needs to learn what a doorknob is. Meanwhile Dottore is scrapping for a way of revenge because the other day Pantalone contaminated a sample he'd collected and it was definitely on purpose (not a result of Pantalone having no idea wtf Dottore is doing half the time) 😒😒

But the whole thing culminates into one MASSIVE red flag because the root cause of the whole thing is their knowledge that they are working with and against each other. They are sabotaging each other in ways that are mildly inconvenient in their minds when it's usually just carelessness or accidental. They can't be equals, someone has to 'win' and they're both cocky enough to think it will be them who'll come out on top, even though they can assess how difficult it will be

Pantalone using it as a power gateway is so real like, how else will he achieve what he eventually wants? More power gives him even more freedom to do more and doing more would get him recognition to get more power and more power means more resources. Dottore is a resource and Pantalone is a utilising man

My absolute favourite headcanon about him is that he uses his delusion as a small scale means off offsetting the imbalance between gods and humans, stealing their authority and taking the kind of power only they can grant. In short that he's obsessed with his delusion, which bleeds out into the way he chooses to use it

He's important, yes, but in terms of importance there are at least eight other people above him when he becomes a Harbinger. It is another step in the grand journey of progression in his book and tbh I don't think there can ever be a moment where he thinks "This is enough", because every step has another after that and so on. Nothing will ever truly be the end even if he thinks he has some ides of how it'll all go.

I am on brand replying at two am 😭 I gotta go to sleep oml it's late

Good luck 😭❤️

Idk how interesting this information would be to anyone else but in my notes all of my reader characters have names so I can keep track of which one the notes belong to. There's only one exception and it's Pantalone's husband— he's just Loverboy 😭

Janis & Grace

Ali: Oh wait, a bitch can't...I'll make it a Virgin Mary...WHEY!

[incorrect-dishonored-quotes]

And at the same time, I had another blog (different fandom) that ran off requests, and i grew to hate it so much. BUT this fandom is so chill, i get the feeling that im not gonna get anons messaging me to kms just because i couldn't write their incest ship or something.

God that other fandom was hell. I love you guys.

Anyway, Dani and I have decided to do some soon (next week maybe?). We've been looking around for prompt lists and considering making our own that fits dh well. Before anything i do want to finish up a short wip that'll act as the first chapter for a collection of short stories and prompts I do here. Idk if Dani's gonna link her chapters to an ao3, or if they're just gonna stay here.

REALLY been considering doing writing prompts recently but like... I'm scared lol. I haven't written since that Corvo & Geoff Curnow fic, and before that it had been a few years so... I'm probably more rusty than i realize.
