Fimmies' secret weapon
Warning: Tickling
It happened to be a water break during the second round of the tag game the girls were playing. Already half the chips were in Yunjin's procession in the safe vault. For once the team wanted to win, but knew they had to cheat their way into getting their chips back and activating the device. Which is where you, a friend of the fimmies and a local spectator enter the game. While eating a delicious burger you were viciously grabbed by Sakura and dragged for you to be in the game. Of course you wanted to play because games are your specialty (but then again you suck at video games). But this wasn't the first offense of you getting in trouble by staff for being on camera. However this one time it'll be allowed as a funny plot twist for this game. Everyone did a secret group meeting in the Bamboo forest while Yunjin was using the restroom.
Chaewon: Zuha, since you're good at hiding you must protect at all times. Sakura you're sacrificing yourself to be a ghost so keep us alert at all times. Eunchae is beating all the games. Y/n, steal all of Yunjin's life chips and if the timer runs out tickle her.
Y/n: Are you crazy?? I can't do that.
Sakura: If we win we'll give you a treat. Just try your best love.
By a strange sound Yunjin was near. To even out the game everyone was going to tickle Yunjin if she asked to give up her chip. Kazuha hid you in one of the ducts, and pretended to walk away so the area can seem empty. She waited for you on the other side of the ducts, where the living room was located. Another chip was nearby the set of wires for their mission. Kazuha grabbed a spare life chip as you gotten a few chips out of the vault to give to the others. Already it was off to a good start, but Sakura's call came on and Kazuha stuffed you back into the duct with you holding the big vault carrying the precious life chips. Already this was off to a bad start but they had the power of tickling and Zuha's good lying skills by her side.
Yunjin: Give me a chip and I won't question this.
Kazuha: Take it off my wrist.
Yunjin stepped into a poke attack, and she was regretting it deeply. A few side tickles and Yunjin was on the floor laughing. But Yunjin wasn't giving up too easily as tagger of the game. Instead this fight wasn't one sided, they were doing a standing up tickle fight in order for Yunjin to get the chip. Kazuha was fighting hard even though she had a chip in her back pocket. But the goal was to get Yunjin tired from the tickling so they can easily win. Unfortunately Yunjin was losing against Kazuha tickling her stomach so she had to move locations. Sakura saw it all and was able to help you out of the ducts and head into the bedroom. Eunchae was hiding from Yunjin in her usual spot, the tiny closet. Kazuha had to drop you off with Eunchae, already she was hating that idea because of how ticklish she is.
Kazuha: Take this life chip if you do lose the tickle battle.
Yunjin: I'm here!
Luckily you were hidden in the bed so Yunjin didn't catch you. Kazuha ran into another location, luckily the place has already engrained familiarity into her mind. Before a slight hesitation Yunjin started to tickle Eunchae in the closet. Eunchae was too ticklish on her neck to do anything. Eunchae has good endurance, however Yunjin can see right thru her main weakness...ticklish palms. Such a small ticklish spot that can tear down such a cute little maknae. All it took was two little fingers sprinting up and down her little palm. Eunchae could handle most things, palm tickles are not one of them.
Eunchae: HEHEHEHEHE FINE! TAKE THE CHIP!
Yunjin: Thank you.
Yunjin went away to find her next target. You heard everything from the closed bed you were in. You were afraid, you soon have to battle her which is going to be way worse than what you've heard now. You and Eunchae ran into the basement, using the blueprint to finish the mission, there was still one left before grabbing the chips into the device. It took no time before the mission was succeeded with Chaewon and Kazuha taking guard. Out of nowhere in complete silence all that stood there was Sakura's loud laughter. Immediately you're on duct duty with Eunchae squished with you. Kazuha was able to hide on time but Chaewon got caught. It took no time to see who was getting control of this tickle fight. Yunjin runs back to the living room and is already on the floor, trembling with fear over Chaewon tickling her.
Yunjin: CHAEWONCHAEWONNONOHAHHAHHAHAHHA
Chaewon: You're not going to get a chip out of me!
Chaewon used her big ler skills to get Yunjin's ticklish hips and ribs. This last for only a second as she doesn't want to waste too much of Yunjin's energy for the finale. After the tickle attack she leaves, she goes into the bathroom where the last mission is held in which Eunchae is helping her. Sakura and Kazuha were guarding the door as well as building confidence for when you tickle Yunjin. It's easy for the major lee Sakura to say it's easy when you're the same level of ticklishness as Eunchae. Kazuha gave you some advice which was to just tackle and try to keep your spots away from her. Reason is she maybe a tough ler but she isn't the strongest. That could work, but still it wasn't enough to ease your fears. There wasn't enough time to freak out, the last mission was done and all that's left was to insert their chips in their devices in each room. Short problem, only five minutes remained before the tagger would win.
Eunchae: There isn't enough time! What are we going to do?
Chaewon: I'll do something, just wait for me. Let's go Y/n.
Chaewon takes your hand and takes you to the secret corners of the hallway rooms to wait. For good luck she gives you a kiss on the cheek, seeing that affection gives you motivation. She opened one of the room, which caught Yunjin's attention on purpose. You took a deep breath, this was much worst than your big fear of stage fright. When she was struggling to unlock the door you surprised her by tickling her sides until she fell. She was confused by the sight of seeing you in the game, but it took no time for you to pin her down and tickle her. You didn't exactly know her ticklish spots, so instead you went for the ticklish spots she tickles you but it was more rougher. The embarrassed look she had of the time ticking and her being tickled bought such revenge in you. All you wanna do is tickle her ticklish tummy forever while saying corny jokes to her.
Y/n: Is this a perfect time to ask why the chicken crossed the road?
Yunjin: SHUT UPHAHAHHAAHAH!
Y/n: I can't, you're too cute.
Such a wholesome cute moment in a place that's causing so much pressure. Like you were teasing her in a room with all red counting down from two minutes. Yunjin was done with the teasing and wanted to wrestle you to the door. She had to play rough, so you did the same. Expect you can do a carbon copy of her tickle tricks right on her. Kazuha was right, she maybe an evil ler but damn her strength lacks. You had her foot stuck on your arm, able to tickle her foot but went for under her knee. Just in this exact moment you realized Yunjin shared the same secret spot with you. And realized that in seconds before doom she's begging like you. Hoping that kisses would soften you, but instead you snuck your hand under her knee and tickled it. She was laughing hysterically, while you were loving every second of it. You added more teases to be extra and tickled her thighs and then squeezing her tummy.
Yunjin: STOPSTOPHAHHAHHAHAGAG YOU'RE GOING TO GET IT!!
Y/n: This is a lesson for being so evil all the time Huh Yunjin.
Even when the five minutes were up, and Yunjin lost the game the adrenaline was still there, running on 50 percent left. Why not end this the same why Yunjin ends her tickle torture with you. A simple kiss on the cheek, then going crazy on her armpits. Her laugh was getting louder to where all the members could hear it. It made them proud that you had such a wild side to attack the biggest ler in their group. After the attacks of every spot that drove Yunjin crazy you're adrenaline was powering off.
Yunjin: PLEASEPLEASEHAHHAHAHA!
Y/n: Alright my cute baby, I'll stop.
You got off of her, as well as helping her up. You went backstage to brush her hair that got tangled from the tickle fight. The treat, besides loads of kisses was your favorite meal. Yunjin was never mad at you destroying her because she would've done the same thing to win. From the footage you two were fighting to the deaths to be the ler, which made the girls proud of you. Especially if none of them would ever be capable enough to do it. You wish there could be a chance to do more tickle games. If so, Eunchae and Kazuha would have to play the part of lers. After making a few jokes everyone got into a food coma, you and Yunjin were the only ones awake. Yunjin was poking you, then you poked her back but nothing major happened. Which made you pout, this was the usual ritual before you get tickles from Yunjin.
Y/n: Are you upset at me? Sorry I got too harsh in tickling you?
Yunjin: Kinda....
Y/n: Sorry, I won't do it again.
She pokes you again, such words shouldn't be said again. She kisses your cheek, knowing that she didn't mean you make you upset. For a few minutes you were sad, but soon you were pretending to get more kisses out of Yunjin. Such a cute glasses and hoodie look makes you shy and crave kisses. Once she said the magic word of soft tickles you were already smiling. She caught on your little act of pretending to be sad. You went on her lap and made sure her hands were set on your tummy. But she didn't do any tickles, instead her mind was thinking of harsh revenge.

"don't make it political!" .... what proportion of death and suffering must occur before politics are involved. if this isn't political, what is even the point of any politics, ever. of democracy. the words are "by the people for the people." if i am going to be left alone by my elected representatives to "figure it out" - to undergo damage, hardship, fear. what the fuck did i elect them for. what was their job. the entire point is that they handle this shit. this is why we were supposed to be electing leaders.
poverty is political. misogyny is political. gun control is political. climate change is political. how much aid a community gets is political. what the fuck are you talking about. it's been political this whole fucking time.
#to be deleted probably#i think aid should be REQUIRED to be bipartisan#ppl shouldn't suffer bc of how they vote. sorry. i'm never gonna be like ''ah yah x area deserves it''#..... they're people. they're human people. what the fuck is wrong with you.#this is nonspecific bc it's the same argument every time it involves things the right wing could have prevented#oh she died in childbirth bc of abortion laws? well nows not the time to make it#well he died bc his boss made him work during the tornado? well let's not make this#ohhh they died in a school shooting? thoughts and prayers let's all not make#there's a big fucking natural disaster that is strong evidence for oncoming ecological collapse?#welllllllll leTS NOT MAKE IT FUCKING POLITICAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11#WHEN WAS THE TIME???????????#PREVENTION HAS ALWAYS BEEN BETTER THAN WOUND CARE.#> stabs u . oh sorry that wasn't political#but also good luck in the hospital good luck with insurance good luck with medicine#good luck with disability support good luck w/ur job and taking time off good lucK!!!#refusing to allow politics into the matter means they get to shrug their shoulders and absolutely#refuse any fucking ACCOUNTABILITY#THEN WHAT WAS THE JOB FOR??? WHY DID I GIVE THEM THIS JOB???#WHAT IS LITERALLY THE POINT OF ELECTED OFFICIALS

Sometimes I wonder what Jiang Cheng could've become if his parents didn't instill a mix of "crippling fear of failure" and "impossibly high standards" in him. Cuz like, his dad was holding him to the vague standard of being as good as wwx, his mom yelling at him whenever he goofed around like wwx, and then both of them expressed disappointment when he's less successful than wwx. The thing both of them seem to ignore though is that wwx got where he is entirely because he had the freedom to fuck around and find out- he trained tirelessly because he made training fun for himself, he was innovative as a cultivators because he experimented and persisted through failures, and he was able to act in line with the Jiang clan moto because his actions had less political pull than members of the main family. Jiang Cheng on the other hand- if he fucked around he got told to "stop stooping to the level of servants." If his achievements were lesser than wwx's, he got either dismissed by his dad or yelled at by his mom to try harder. And if he picked fights with the Wens, they'd have an excuse to destroy his clan. Like ya- no shit that'd create an adult who's terrified of failure.
The kite game serves as such a good metaphor/embodiment of this set back- with Jiang Cheng never being able to shoot as far as Wei Wuxian because he pulls back and shoots closer the second he misses.
And its sad too because he's shown to be pretty brilliant when he's in "fuck it, we ball" mode. Like, when he's not freezing up, he manages to pull off things like rebuilding his entire clan from the ground up, leading armies and taking back territories from the Wens, and I'm fairly sure he's the only character we see counter the Lan music cultivation techniques (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on that last one. Also feel free to add any of the other cool shit he did that I'm blanking on at the moment, cuz I know I'm forgetting something).
That being said- even with his anxiety, he's still one of the top cultivators. Imagine what a force of nature he'd be if he could sustain "fuck it we ball" mode
#jiang cheng#jiang fengmian critical#madam yu critical#jiang cheng positive#<- there. its tagged properly so you better not @ me antis#mdzs meta#mdzs#long post#jiang cheng would've been too powerful so his parents decided to nerf him#unfortunate i had this thought around the same time as the discourse is happening and I'm probably inviting trouble with this but eh-#maybe I'll get lucky and the antis will leave me alone#I'm being critical of Madam Yu here but this is NOT a Madam Yu hate blog#I will block depending on how far “criticism” of her goes#apparently I need to add in this edit too- THIS IS NOT A WWX BASHING POST.

Every time Buggachat makes a post to remind people that she enjoys the show in a non-ironic way and that she appreciates the show's writing, there are always people who write in the tags and comments, "Yes Buggachat you're right! We all know Miraculous is OBJECTIVELY bad but let us have some fun!"
Hmm... I think you've missed the point...
#As someone who has enjoyed all 5 seasons#I'm glad I discovered Miraculous before people told me not to watch it because they thought it was “objectively” bad.#delete later

A bit of controversial post maybe??? (feel free to skip)
Not to be controversial but I keep seeing how ppl are reading the “Leona is kind to Sally” situation and just thinking how my perspective is bit…different. (if you don't care about my opinion ofc you can always skip)
SPOILERS FOR EVENT
When I saw it, these were my thoughts:
"Oh I love this so much!! It's adorable for one, and I’ve been saying for years that Leona is only mean to ppl he doesn't like/finds annoying or doesn’t care about. Like he HAS the ability, like everyone else to be polite and nice but we only see him interact with ppl who annoy him etc. Which is...um most of the cast. AND we rarely get a peak at how he would be with someone he likes.
I hope that this helps ppl see that he can be gentler to act toward someone he's SUPPOSED to like as a friend or even like romantically.
Banter is one thing but I don’t believe he'd ever act straight-up rude to someone he was true friends with, dating or had a crush on?"
So, a lot of ppl loved this scene I DO TOO! However…
This whole “Leona said men ain’t shit” joke is worrisome. Like…do you guys think that Leona would in fact be ruder or less gentle to a masc or nonbinary S/O vs a femme one? Some of these remarks…feel uh not really nice to those who have nonbinary/masc pairing with him.
He grew up in a matriarchal society, he respects women NO DOUBT.
I just think it would be nice to for us to be kinder in how we phrase things like this. I know they are jokes but still Yumes and ships mean a lot to ppl and I think it's just another catalyst for masc and masc-leaning fans to feel further alienated in the fandom space, yk?
Do I believe he respects women OFC, but much like those who had the “consent king” take about the voiceline of him being offended at Scully kissing the MC's hand I ONLY agree to an extent. WHY? Bc Leona is a big-ass hypocrite! Leona, for all I defend him, is not always keen on physical boundaries himself and can be quite rude. I think that line is more him being annoyed at Scully than genuinely worried for anyone's virtue, yk?
And to bring it back to the Sally/Leona thing I think it's not just bc Sally is a woman he is nice to her, bc she is SMART and cunning and was quickly underestimated by the rest of the cast. She was able take care of herself. He liked that about her. I really don't think it was just cause she was girl by itself.
Idk thats all I have to say, this is just my opinion as usual but it just didn’t sit right with me from a fandom perspective and I genuinely feel the “Leona is the feminist king of all time” is not a full reading of the character when we’ve seen him be nice to others and neutral to other women. Plus, he’s IS a hypocrite about the manners thing! The cast even call him out on it.
Leona is still flawed just like any other character in twst and I don't think him “bowing down at every women's feet” is something I subscribe to. Not in the way some ppl are acting anyways.
And frankly how some ppl are wording themselves in their tags and reblogs of these posts about Leona “drinking respect women’s juice bc he dislikes men” feels alienating toward those who have nonbinary/masc ships with him.
This is meant as no offense to anyone's fun I just thought I’d give my perspective on it.
TLDR: I do think that it is genuinely funny and endearing to see the juxtaposition of how Leona treats everyone else VS Sally HOWEVER I don't think it is purely a gender thing and making that just doesn't sit right with me.
#and no its not everyoneeeeeeeeeeee#Just a few comment here or there I saw that made me side eye.#I just think some more nuance would be nice I guess idk??#These are just my thought anyways#I hope I am being understood here I'm not trying to start anything so please be kind to me and others#ren speaks🌱#may delete later

talking about the topic of animated movies not Hitting, I accidentally reminded myself of one time on twitter, I think around the time that Raya came out?? I was poopooing on how much the dragon looks like elsa, and then talked about how I wish 2d animated and hand animated films were still The Medium instead of nothing but the highest resolution skin texture fur textured 3d animated films bc I'm tired of seeing it, etc etc and then someone who I was not mutuals with, they must've been someone working under the disney IP in some form, and must've either done some work on raya or just worked on 3d animated projects in general, replied to me SEVERAL TIMES as if I was subtweeting them, with something to the tone of "just say you hate me and you think my art is trash" and I think about that ALL the time
#I wish I could find what they said bc it was so much weirder than what I paraphrased. but this was years ago#like I had accidentally REALLY. bothered them and they thought the tweets were directed straight at them.#they were following me apparently (unfollowed me after that. obviously. bc they decided that I hated them specifically)#(bc I didn't like the dragon design from raya and I was fantasizing about it being 2d animated)#they deleted the tweets like 24 hours later but I was literally like. I'm sure you do good work???#i'm sorry you feel that way but rn i'm trying to complain about this very mainstream movie?? this is not a personal attack???#but now whenever I say something about a movie looking like dookie I imagine someone messaging me going “just say you hate me”#bc they did some concept art for it or something#shouts out to that person they were obviously doing really well emotionally to have come at me in that way lmao#sergle.txt#they obviously felt that we were in a Personal Argument but i wasn't wanting to argue and the interaction was not personal so it was very#one sided lol

Me when chapter 4 was so nice that I must go back to my roots and edit the prologue so I can be who I am but then also pretend I'm totally normal 😋
#delete later#I won't lie I think when I started I really had no clue what I was doing because the prologue is just something else#This truly was my crown of ashes and flames we have more choices in the prologue who would've thought#Me when my life falls apart so I must torture my kid too /j#And yes its the ugly sugarcube default theme I'm dying

For OFMD Tumblr friends who want a S3 and are scared of Twitter
First, no judgment from me. I very much get it. I resisted Twitter for a long time, and even though I'm now a bit more comfortable on it, it's still not my Fandom Home. There are a TON of valid reasons not to be on Twitter, but if you REALLY want to keep OFMD visible right now and help its chances of returning for a third season, Twitter is the best place to do it. Like it or not, Twitter is still the best social media platform for raising awareness and for instant news updates.
Tumblr posts don't make headlines. Topics that have been trending on Twitter do. And if we want this show to come back, we need to make OFMD impossible to ignore.
By now you've probably seen just how close we came to a S3, and if you're like me, you are RAGING and donning your battle jacket. But I get it can be intimidating to get on Twitter for the first time, so I thought I'd address some common anxieties I see. I'll put below a cut because this got a bit long, but I promise it's a quick read.
I don't know what to say! Where do I even start? That's okay! You don't have to create your own tweets (although it's great if you do). Amplifying other people's posts is also important. Go ahead and like/retweet/reply to other people's posts. This may also help you get an idea of what you may like to say in your own tweets.
Hashtags...yes? Yes! Although don't use too many or you may get flagged as a bot. The biggest one that seems to be emerging is #SaveOFMD. Other popular ones are #RenewAsACrew, #RenewOurFlagMeansDeath, and of course, #OFMD and #OurFlagMeansDeath.
Should I just be tagging all the streaming services? Per @renewasacrew, no. It's counterproductive. You'll want to tag one streamer at a time and be specific. Below is an example of a tweet I made the other day -- use specific reasons why that that particular streamer may benefit from picking up OFMD.
I'm scared. People are mean. Yeah, people are mean. But I will say the vibes over at OFMD Twitter are currently the best I've ever seen them. People seem to have united for the greater good and are being overwhelmingly positive and just trying to do whatever we can to save the show. (That said, again, I already had a pretty curated feed, and was very liberal with blocking users/terms I didn't want to see, but I've been able to spend so much more time in the For You tab than I ever have without being jump scared by something.)
But I don't know anyone there! Wouldn't I just be shouting into the void? Not if you use the hashtags! Fans are being really good about following those and engaging with the tweets. Plus, [Stede voice], I'm your friend. I'm xoxoemynn over there as well, I'll follow you back and engage with any of your posts that I see. Plus, what's been REALLY lovely to see is that SO many lurkers have come out of lurkerdom to support the efforts, and they are being welcomed with open arms, so you will not be alone. Again, I am telling you, vibes? Best I've ever seen them.
I can't get sucked into another social media platform, I don't have the time. The beauty here is you don't need to spend a lot of time. I've been on Twitter more in the past week than I have in the entire year I've had an account, and I'm still only on for maybe an hour total the entire day? I open the app, I check a couple accounts, I engage with a handful of posts, and I close the app. It takes all of five minutes. It's an extremely small lift that can have a very big impact.
My bet is on Zaslav expecting us to be upset, and that there may be a day or two of outrage, but then we'd move on. I'm sure right now he's trying to convince everyone that this is a fluke, and that it'll blow over soon. Don't let him win. Keep OFMD in the news. Be loud (but polite) and make Max and other streamers take note of what a passionate, loyal fan base this show has. Make their stocks continue to drop. Make it clear this is NOT just a fluke, it is NOT business as usual. It's a BIG fuck up with lasting consequences.
Twitter, for all its sins, is the best place to do this.
Now let's get our damned show back.
#ofmd#our flag means death#renew as a crew#truly BELIEVE ME I get wanting to stay away!!#and if after we get picked up again you want to delete your account please go ahead and do that!#but this is a really easy and tangible way to show Max/other streamers#just how beloved the show is and how it would benefit them to save it#I love tumblr but it's not going to give us the kind of impact we want#it's for fans - not for external folks/key decision makers#ANYWAY I am by NO MEANS a twitter expert but I'm getting better#and I've seen some people be nervous about getting on the platform so I thought I'd try to help <3
