#i love my franns!

[soartfullydone]

💌?

I love how hard you work and how much pride you take in your work, whether it is your actual job or something creative you're doing. You have so much to offer, and I'm always glad to see when you are taking time for yourself to draw something new or character build or learn to work with some new art medium. It's so, so cool to me and inspires me to want to try new things. (Ugh, but what if it's not perfect? No! We will cure ourselves of our perfectionist tendencies.)

I'm so happy you joined our DnD group and that we've all jived so well. Your characters always bring a new dimension to our game and they're so fun to play against. I think a lot about the cute scene where Riven kept dressing up Ori as they chatted and even about the friction caused by their political understandings. I love Ledo and want to dig into her so bad. I really do think her and Celeste's relationship would be Interesting if I can ever get Celeste to show her hand.

But yeah, I'm glad we've gotten to hang out more lately. Let's shoot for even more! :3

genuine question, no hate at all, i’m a little confused by your username! what’s it mean-?

i thought it was “frans trash” for a moment (like the frans ship.) but you are dni proship as well, so i’m trying to decipher what it means! i hope you don’t mind me asking i’m just really curious because i know it’s MOST LIKELY not what it looks like haha

no pressure to answer just ab intrigued (i’m nosey.) internet person, love your art, i hope your day or night is nice!

ok soo, yeahh i understand it might be a little confusing...

my name is fran.. so it should be read as fran's trash... i understand the coincidence is a bit, well, unfortunate

i used to go by frann's art dumpster but it was way too long so i shortened it to frann's trash, it's not because of the frans ship sobs

[smoshidiot]

sorry in advance if this is rambly or doesn't make sense. it's 3am and i just have a stupid amount of love for smosh in my heart rn and i wanted to make a lil appreciation post 💕

first off i wanna say: happy birthday smosh! i can't believe this silly youtube channel is already 18 years old. it's hard to exactly describe how much smosh means to me. i discovered the channel nearly 10 years ago (my anniversary is on the 25th!) and even at the times in my life when i wasn't actively watching smosh, they always had such a special place in my heart. ian and anthony have always been able to make me laugh in a way that other channels have never really been able to, and it has been such an absolute delight to see them working together again.

ever since june 20th my life has really been centered around smosh and it's been amazing. if you told me a year ago that this is what my life would look like i never would've believed you. i am so unbelievably grateful for all of the joy, laughter, and opportunities smosh has brought me since anthony's return. i wanna say how happy i am that smoshblr exists and was so welcoming as soon as i made my blog. i honestly don't know if i would've stuck with smosh so strongly if i didn't have this great community to chat with and rediscover my love of this channel with.

and then of course, smoshblr and my friends here led me to joining the smoshcord which has been my absolute home these past few months. i have made so many incredible friends on that server and i wouldn't trade it for the world. all of the neighbors mean sm to me and i absolutely cannot wait to meet a bunch of them at vidcon 2024. also! i am still so honored that erica from the team over at smosh chose me (as well as a few other amazing ppl!) as a community mod for smoshcord. it feels so amazing to be able to give back to the smosh community, for how much it has given me over the years. and just to be recognized by smosh as a respected member of the community means the absolute world to me.

along those lines, while i'm being sappy i think i'm allowed to be a lil selfish and say ?? holy shit if you told 12 year old me that i would go on to have regular conversations with anthony padilla i would tell you you're absolutely insane. it has been such an absolute wild ride but it's so fucking cool that ian and anthony (ok mostly anthony but i think ian too bc of streams n stuff!) know who i am. i have an insane amount of love in my heart for these boys and it's so nice to interact with them on a slightly more personal level. it still feels like an absolute dream to even see them sit next to each other, let alone sit next to each other while saying my name.

but anyways i just want to say thank you smosh. thank you for all of the love and laughter and hope you have given me. you've shown me that friendship DOES truly always win. i am so fucking proud of these boys for mending their relationship and coming through such a hard time to create something genuinely beautiful.

anyways i wanna shoutout @smoshmonker @squig-s @yourinterestisnotcringe @lilac-hecox @kubabamia @only-frann for being just so lovely and fun to talk smosh with ♡ i am so grateful i met you all and that smosh brought us together like this! (sorry if there's any other neighborhood friends that i simply forgot the tumblr urls for ilyy)

[japhan2024]

smoshblr tag game wheee!!!

“tagged” by the amazing @lumiereandcogsworth thank you <333

1. how long have you been watching smosh? I actually didn't know about their youtube channel for a minute while I did frequent smosh.com the website LOL so I don't really recall, but it's a long ass time lmao!

2. favorite smosh cast member(s)? Ian for suuuurrre also Anthony but I'm still mad at him for leaving x33 and I really love Amanda she is so magical. She is truly the best thing to happen to Smosh like, what an actress. What an ICON. She's larger than life and I am at her feet.

3. favorite pairing(s)?

I mean, let's be real. It's Ianthony <3 I do love Amangela, but the thing is... my eyes are on Amanda only, I've found out about myself x3 maybe a self-insert ship with me and Amanda hahaha what?

4. favorite reoccurring character? Listen, Fred Darts is an instant classic, he NEEDS to return and continue to be iconic.

5. favorite smosh video? yesss another opportunity to spread the Claus Winklestein agenda >:) the bi-con we need but don't deserve x)

The video is so problematic for so many reasons lmao but it remains my absolute favorite. Something about Anthony as a girl *_* is always SO mesmerizing like?? The whole concept is genius, there's subplot, there is character development, the bisexual energy is off the charts and I have lots of thoughts about lots of scenes that I won't get into here bc I hate discourse lmao. But it's really something. I was like 'bring back claus winklestein!' in one of the member chats and they didn't even remember him and I was very offended LMAO <3

6. first video that got you into smosh? truly I don't remember but one of the first ones I do remember are the lip-syncing ones of course.

7. favorite picture of the cast?

I love this moment lmao the dynamic of Angela and Chanse being reverse boomers like they have no idea what is going on

8. favorite picture of your fave?

I love everything about this whole shoot 🙏🙏🙏

9. what smosh series do you want to see more of?

I really would like more Sword AF but with video x3 I would even like it to have higher production value so they can cut to scenes of them in full constume, cgi stuff and playing out some scenes 🥹

10. dream guest on smosh mouth?

*heavy breathing* I'm pleading the fifth

tagging: @only-frann @generaltrashshecox @smoshidiot @hecoxthirst @wazurenaide @lilac-hecox + anyone else who wants to do this! :D I'd love to read and watch your answers!

Release: February 23, 1987

Lyrics:

When I first laid my eyes upon you

I knew right then and there you were the one

Eyes so deep, you sent me melting

And then you smiled as though to say, "oh, yeah"

But then you seemed to change your mind

You looked away like you were oh so shy

Is the game you're playing hard to get

Won't you tell me, oh ho

Want me, don't you want me

To touch you and to hold you tight

Don't you want me like I want you

To kiss and love all through the night

I'd like to know more than just your name

Did you come here alone or with someone

If only you would open up

And let me know just where you're coming from

Are you looking for a new love

Or does commitment seem to bring you down

Is that a look of "yes" or is it "no"

Please don't tease me, oh

Want me, don't you want me

To touch you and to hold you tight

Don't you want me like I want you

To kiss and love all through the night

Ohoh, yeah

Don't you want me?

Ohoh, yeah

Don't you want me?

Want me, don't you want me

To touch you and to hold you tight

Don't you want me like I want you

To kiss and love all through the night

Are you looking for a new love

Or does commitment seem to bring you down

Is that a look of "yes" or is it "no"?

Please don't tease me, oh

Want me, don't you want me

To touch you and to hold you tight

Don't you want me like I want you

To kiss and love all through the night

Want me, don't you want me

To touch you and to hold you tight

Don't you want me like I want you

To kiss and love all through the night

Songwriter:

Want me (oh, oh), don't you want me (yeah)

(Don't you want me)

Want me (oh, oh), don't you want me (yeah, yeah)

(Don't you want me)

[ragamuffin-sage]

Gonna be structuring these a little differently so I’m not spamming a post every single chapter. Spoilers below for Chapters 3-5

I noticed that the character’s run along side you on the loading screen and it is so cute

Chapter 3:

Appearance of Red Alear in that cutscene makes me think that there was a Blue Alear and Lumera smashed them together to get Pepsi-Colgate Alear. Probably had something to do with how the Fell Dragon was defeated the first time. Gonna take a gander Red Alear is Fell Dragon aligned and Blue Alear is Divine Dragon aligned, so when Pepsi-Colgate woke up the Fell Dragon also woke up too. 

Also no offense to the voice actor what so ever but Alfred’s voice makes me want to shove him in a locker. He just sounds so nerdy. Also it’s weird to know he was apparently watching Alear sleep ever since he was a little kid. Just seems a bit unnerving. 

I wasn’t picturing Etie’s voice to sound that deep (I was thinking more she’d sound like Maribelle from Awakening.) I’m not opposed to it though. As for Boucheron I don’t have much to say about him. 

And I’m sorry but that death scene with Lumera drug on waaayyy to long. My switch screen darkened because I put my controller down to watch. Also the “becoming your mother” line makes Lumera more sus. 

Exploring Somniel:

I like that the map so far doesn’t seem as big as Garreg Mach in FE3H. I love the monastery map but go it was so huge. Glad this one is smaller and seems a bit more manageable. I got to read Clanne and Franne’s support and they’re so dorky I love them. Also read Vander and Clanne’s, glad to see Clanne isn’t as timid as I thought he was going to be, also Vander needs to chill.

Chapter 4: Oddly enough not much to say this chapter about the story because it feels more like a chapter to introduce Celine, Louis, and Chloe. Celine’s dress is so ridiculous. Also I thought she was a Alfred’s younger sister, but she sound older and her crown is fancier so maybe I’m wrong? Also I love Loius. Chloe is kinda meh we will see if I like her more later. I liked being able to explore the map after we playing on it. Hope there is more like that instead of it moving you to a different location.

Chapter 5: 

Upon reading Celine’s character page turns out she is the younger sibling, which feels wrong to me. I’m also more curious about the small cloaked child. Also curious where Velye (I don’t remember how its spelled but the girl who showed up, threw a fire ball, and then disappeared on us went.) Also I was skeptical of some of the designs for characters are first but I’m really enjoying them so far. Time to get to Brodia so I can see the scrungly little 2nd prince. At least I’m hoping he’s in the next chapter.

No like, at first I was absolutely worried for him and was so happy and grateful he was alive and I stayed that way for the entire day of when the accident first happened, but the next morning when I realized I didn't have a way to get to and from work, that's when the anger kicked in. But I'm not a heartless monster Rekha 💀 I didn't immediately get angry at him, he's my baby of course I was terrified and am now Happy he is alive. 🥹

I love him sm 💕 he's the itto to my ayato, my one and only, my baby, my love. My himbo honeydoll, I'm so glad he's ok ilh smm. I'd smooch him so hard if I weren't at work rn

SOB SOB IKK best frann ikk 😭💔💔 i'd be clutching you both to me and sobbing for weeks. so glad he's okay<3 and it was real nice of your mom to let you borrow her car as well. ++YOUR HIMBO HONEYDOLL i am saving that to my own vocabulary thank you v_v

real conversation of them

[firstdegreefangirl]

OKAY. now i ask you: did tim do a comfort-based clothing assist for lucy before jackson's funeral too?! you've all but cemented that in my subconscious, and i thank you sincerely!

I think he did, but I think it was something much more subtle. Obviously at that point he wouldn't have been buttoning a shirt for her, but he maybe helped with a necklace or polished her shoes again the night before or something on a more friendly level.
