#i think they get to be a little fucked up and weird. as a treat.

idea:

vampire pete and ybcpatrick au

pete is kidnapped by the Vixens cult, he's The Music Guy of the Chicago hardcore scene and he's got a little too close to figuring out their operation

patrick is an experiment of the Vixens, a kid born from locally famous musicians that they kidnapped and brainwashed into a yellow-eyed, hook handed, violent monster

the Vixens are working to see if the same brainwashing would effect Pete since he is nonhuman, but it doesnt work

the brainwashing in patrick is failing, the Vixens notice this and vocally plan to kill the two of them, which Pete overhears.

Pete shares this plan to Patrick and the two have to work together to break out before they kill them

also i think if roleswap laios and canon laios met theyd immediately start fighting.

Huh. If my life was a quote, it'd be "one of those sad ones with a deceptively happy tune"

Actually i feel like my voice goals are not that unreasonable since the people i get jealous of the most really are my age or older

......

Well, reasonable though they may be, realistic is another matter

The most pointless discourse I have a strong stance on is that Schlatt was not a twink, he was just a kid. A pretty boy at best. Twinks don't just have pretty faces and are skinty. They are big homo, yeah? They are cunty.

I think whenever someone says Schlatt experienced twink death they should have to enter into hand to hand combat with Tyler Oakley. He was just a little guy your honor.

Tyler's "twink era" was Shlatt's age now. He didn't have twink death, he just grew up and no one was normal about it.

Me whenever a non artist says that they 'can't draw' and I start screaming shaking crying going bananas and having to give the whole 'you CAN draw actually' spiel:

You know. Sorry for another sporadic unprompted post about that friend who has caused me so much trauma in the past year. But I remember this one time his old high school friend I met once, he's really nice I liked him a lot. Cool guy. But he lives far away so they don't meet up a lot but they text. One time he sent this friend some pictures of us that were taken at a cooking class that he'd been bothering me into going to despite that it was all the way in Boston, there was a lot of walking to get to it, etc. And I was like constantly feeling sick and run down and exhausted from having Covid recently. He texted his friends those pictures of the two of us and his friend asked "Are you and Diana dating lol" like pretty innocently but honestly curious.

And he just replied "Are you fucking high" and he showed me and told me about it. Like. Like it was uncomfortable for HIM to be asked that.

Like his response isn't SUPER INSULTING TO ME.

okay so imagine that, for your entire life, any time you try to watch a video it's either fast forwarded or slowed to like one frame a minute. sometimes it's somewhere in between but videos never play normal for you no matter what you do. everyone you talk to about this problem looks at you weird & says, "just play it at x1 speed??" as if you're stupid for not thinking of this sooner. you can't play it at x1 speed. the buttons don't work--or, at least, they don't do what they're supposed to. your player does not function like other people's. it takes you way too long to realize you're not just being a big baby for not being able to handle it. other people don't live like this.

over the years you figured out that if you hold down the play button really hard while hitting the player it's more likely to play it closer to normal speed, but it's never guaranteed & doing it all the time fucks up your hands. people don't understand why you do it. they hate it. they don't stop letting you know.

you have never not watched anything at normal speed. you've heard people talk about it like it's a universal experience, explain details in movies you missed because it was going too fast or slow. but you've never experienced it. this earns you the label of "stupid." you try to explain you're not stupid, it's just that the audio & video & subtitles (when there are any) are so distorted you can't tell what's happening. they explain back that this is called, "being stupid."

okay now imagine you find out there's a way to fix this but you have to continuously jump through flaming hoops to pay like $200 for a player that works, & when you turn the player on you have to do a whole ritual to make sure it actually works properly & not just like. explodes or electrocutes you or something.

but this type of player is considered evil because, for people that don't have the inconsistent speed problem, the player will always electrocute them (they can also do this in smaller doses by using other methods, but this is considered normal). some people like it. it's proven scientifically that the same thing cannot happen to you, but no one actually believes your problem exists & they think you're faking it to get a weird player to zap you. hence the flaming hoops & price tag.

you need to watch videos to survive in this society so you pay to get someone without the speed problem to confirm you have it. this costs more money btw. & then you talk to another person about possibly getting the player, which also costs money. they're still not sure you're not faking but begrudgingly agree to find you a player.

but not before more tests. which costs more & more money. & is also very dehumanizing.

so at this point it's been like five years & you finally snap because you're behind in everything & you can't hold down a job because you can't watch the training videos & no one takes you seriously & just this one fucking time can someone take you seriously.

"whoa, okay, calm down, no need to be so aggressive. fine, here's where you can buy the player."

great. you go there. pay the exorbitant fee for it. bring it home. do the ritual. turn it on. a video plays & it's normal speed all the way through, only some minor buffering (other people don't have this problem, but it's way better than it was before), high quality video, clear audio, properly sized subtitles, & you don't even have to do any weird shit to make it work.

& suddenly it's like you're getting a peek into what it is like to actually be human. you can actually tell what is happening. you can think about it. you can retain information. it doesn't hurt.

the player, unfortunately, only lasts about six months & then you have to do everything all over again. also you can't bring it with you to most places because it's straight up illegal in some countries & even in places it's not, you will encounter people who think it should be. so you just can never go anywhere & keep having to spend money to be able to function like a normal person.

people still don't believe you, of course, even when the evidence is right in front of them. but at least it's helping.

okay now imagine you have ADHD
