#i wouldn't ACTUALLY feel comfortable with ppl irl using he/him on me i think

[djevelbl]

I'll never forget the day my mum asked me "hey so uh. why do you use he/him on your whatsapp channel??" and I had to elaborate beyond "I think it's fun"

[bfwonho]

AITA but i dont wanna use reddit

ok you know what here is the situation. my (only recently) 20 yr old friend (i met them four years ago when we both worked at mcd) lived with their strict, emotionally abusive, overprotective parents until recently. their parents would confiscate tech for yrs at a time, wouldn't let them get vaccinated (i had to help them do that), guilt and shame them, etc. also obviously homophobic and my friend is transfem nb and queer. theyre also the eldest sibling of quite a few and had to handle the pressure of that responsibility and their parents never wanted them to do normal things like getting a car and moving out. i was always there encouraging them even when we stopped working together bc i was like fuck this naive gullible homeschooled kid has no one and they remind me of my younger sibling and im gonna be there for them as much as i can. the only reason they even got a car eventually is cus i kept telling them to so they cld move out

cut back to barely a year ago, they're still so naive and gullible they've lent like 1k+ to ppl who won't pay them back, but they still have like 10-20k in savings and now their own car. they also get into digital art with my help and get into furry porn or whatever. im like ok i guess ur an adult now do what u want. and then theyre like "ive got an online partner from CANADA!!! (we r australian) don't freak out i know it's bad but he's 30." i'm like oh god. they've been together 3 months ish and my friend RLY wants to visit their fuckass boyfriend and i'm like please be careful, please wait at least a year, i know u wont wanna listen to how i rly feel about this but at least just take these precautions. i'm also like when you do meet irl he should come here ur barely 19 and he's 30 like it only makes sense. and theyre like "thank u i promise i will do that"

and then maybe 10 or 11 months into their relationship i find out my friend is in canada with their bf, and has been for like a month, and i only know this bc they're asking if i can pick them up from sydney airport. im like errr that's pretty far away but take the train and i'll pick you up from the station and they're like ok sure! and i ask a bit more about it and find out they believe their parents have been hacking into their laptop because why else would they be suspicious that this canadian guy is their boyfriend, i'm like actually no offense but it's really fucking obvious i don't think they did that... and they're like "yeah anyway my parents are no longer picking me up which is why i need a lift, i admitted i have a boyfriend and they're calling him a pedo (and i almost agree but i just smile and nod) and so i'm not going back and taking their bs anymore, i'm gonna sleep in my car if i have to" so i offer for them to stay at my place for a few weeks.

they go get their stuff from their place, i buy them a pizza cus they havent had dinner, i help them get their stuff inside, set up a temporary bed. they tell me they plan to be out within a few days, i tell them they can stay longer if they need to, but currently their only job is doordash and they should focus on getting a real job so they can find a place and i'm more than happy to help them find somewhere. theyre the type of person to say sorry for everything and not let themselves ever feel comfortable, so i make sure they know they can use the kitchen and bathroom and everything while they're here and to not feel like a huge burden, im gonna be charging them a tiny bit of rent anyway so yeah.

now tell me why it's been over a month, they've applied to only a few places, i specifically put in a good word with them at my job and told them to call back and ask about the application and they just haven't, they've just been doordashing and filling my entire fridge and cupboard with their food, i tell them to use the laundromat cus we don't have enough space for their washing too and they end up asking if they can use our washing machine anyway (i reluctantly say yes), they destroy all my kitchen sponges on washing this one shitty pan i have cus they have to cook an entire grand meal from scratch for breakfast lunch and dinner, they wash up but i'm the only person who cleans the floors and the bathroom so now i'm feeling cramped and stressed out...

i ask my mum about what to do, she says give them 2 weeks to move out, my mum is a guarantor on my lease so in the group chat i explain the situation and say they have 2 weeks, they NEVER RESPOND and start not coming home until late at night... i'm considering moving into another place with a friend atp so i'm like yo maybe you can get on this lease and THEN they respond and start showing up again... and today i called and updated mum on the situation and her partner got on the phone, me and my sibling only got this place cus he apparently called in a favour cus we were rly struggling to find any fucking housing, and so he says "tell him i mean THEMMM if theyre not out tomorrow i will forcibly remove them" and so my sibling makes sure to tell them this face to face so they cant avoid actually responding. i also find out today that this whole time they've been flat broke (to the point they had to borrow my money just to get petrol despite doordashing like 40 hours a week) because they HAVE BEEN HELPING. PAY. THEIR GROWN ASS. SHITTY FUCKING USELESS. PARTNERS. RENT. THIS GROWN ASS MAN NOT ONLY HAD THEM PAY TO GO SEE HIM AND SUCK HIM OFF AND COOK FOR HIM. NOT ONLY WAS LETTING THEM GO BACK TO AUSTRALIA AND JUST BE HOMELESS. BUT HE IS ACTIVELY TAKING THEIR FUCKING MONEY. despite all of this i am deep down INCREDIBLY GLAD that my mum's partner put his foot down to get them out of my house and i feel guilty about it despite risking eviction cus im breaking my lease agreement by having them here loooll

tldr my 20 yr old friend has been living in my house illegally for over a month bc they refuse to go back to their shitty parents, they are however broke and don't have a stable job and their 30 yr old boyfriend is leeching off of them, and now i'm essentially kicking them out of my place within 2 days because my own housing security is at risk

would love to hear more about the skinny/speirs confrontation 👀 (I'm sure other would too so feel free to answer publicly)

Ok I did not actually anticipate ppl being interested HAHAHAH but since ya'll asked nicely (@ep6bastogne and @hellofanidea mWAH to you too), here it is under the cut.

Ok so like. Understandably, people are more focused on Web and Lieb when it comes to the mountain top scene and that's perfectly fine. They're the ones I first thought about too. But then the more I watched that scene, the more I nyoomed in on two details: 1) It is implied that Speirs personally gave the order for Liebgott to go up there and deal with the officer, and 2) Skinny is the one who ends up pulling the trigger.

Which brings me to like. This fic I started planning in my head but couldn't quite write down because I am. Lazy. Anyway, it follows several plot points:

1) This is piggyback riding off my meta that Ron had ulterior motives to sending Liebgott up the mountain, which I have outlined in this post. TL;DR Ron used Lieb's anger (and to some extent, Web's too-- in my head, he heard about the incident with the baker in ep9, and he wanted to exploit that, not anticipating that Web's own self-preservation (of both his own person and morals) would get in the way) to do his dirty work, knowing that he wouldn't be questioned because of his position and because of said anger blindsiding all logic Lieb might have.

2) Skinny somehow knows this. He's more intuitive that people give him credit for. If Ron handpicked Lieb and Web because he knew, at least to some extent, that their anger would push them to do what he wants, then what the hell was Skinny doing there?

3) That question will haunt Skinny for awhile. Because why did Ron know, somehow, that Skinny would pull the trigger when either Lieb or Web could not? What anger and violence did Ron see in Skinny that made him think: "ah, yes, him; that's my killer of killers"? And most importantly, why did Skinny prove him right?

This is very much informed by how irl Skinny's PTSD was very much centered on the people he killed as a soldier (as opposed to people he lost). He's constantly cited in his writings and his letters that he felt unforgivable. So it isn't a massive leap for me to go yeah!! that boy killed an unarmed man (albeit a nazi, but I don't think even that could help him justify this) and then was later present when Web says "war's over, anyone would run" which no doubt would add to his already guilty conscience.

Add all of that together, and you have a recipe for a very traumatized lost boy wondering if maybe he's carrying a monster inside of him, and if maybe Ron could see it.

4) the answer, in the end, is that Ron couldn't see it. This was the dialogue I wrote first, and it has had me by the balls ever since:

"So why me? What did you see in me that was so twisted and cruel that you decided I should be up there, huh? Tell me!"

"... Nothing. I just needed a third man."

5) anyway. Ronald does, finally, admit to having used Lieb and Web to get what he wants. But Skinny doesn't care, because all he hears is that he's collateral damage. And that's not quite as comforting as Ron thinks it is.

soooooo. yeah.

**another plot point I have listed but couldn't really put anywhere in this weird ass list: there's also some cognitive dissonance sprinkled in there-- Skinny could justify Lieb and Web's reactions. He'd say Lieb has the right to do it. He'd also say Web's attempt at perserving himself as wise. it's important to note that Skinny went into this with the mindset that he was already unforgivable from the beginning. this just exacerbated it, but also gave him somebody who could probably answer his questions (i.e. am I really unforgivable? am I rreally a monster? am I a murderer? etc etc).

Thoughts 5/31

hello very long post about my thoughts on the stream today :]

all of this is about c!Wilbur, c!Tommy, and c!Quackity's roleplay, I admire and appreciate the content creators a lot

(first part of this is sort of lateral with the streams but then it just devolves sorry about that)

ay wait Wilbur is like 40?? goddamn dilf?

"Tommy the stoner" bad bit, Tommy. "Tommy the rocker" EVEN WORSE I HATE THESE MEN

Linda? what the fuck who is she. replacement for the grind?

Tommy why are you mining so much rock. Is this to fill the void in your heart. Tommy why.

wait wait wait I caught the later end of the stream so im rewatching and Wilbur is talking about TNT mechanics but later on when trying to convince Quackity to let him into Las Nevadas, WIlbur says he's forgotten everything about TNT and won't lie. Lie? Hmm

Wilbur claiming TNT is his thing when the first instance of TNT being used in lore is when Dream blew up L'Manberg during the war when they wouldn't surrender. Hmmmm

Wilbur refusing to show Tommy what Quackity wrote for him and omitting what he wrote hmmmmmmm

WILBUR FUCKIN LIED TO TOMMY ABOUT THE BOOK AND SEGUED TO CALLING TOMMY HIS BEST FRIEND TO MAKE HIM FORGET ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT OH MY GOD

the little breaks in serious lore for just absolute bullshit sends me

I cant trust any bitches words in this house

"Seattle, Florida" I- Geoguessr king my ass smh

Quackity's reaction to Wilbur is very similar to how Quackity reacted to Tommy and I don't know what to do with this information

Tommy's dedication to the bit of not knowing what the fuck happened to Quackity's face is amazing, like he squinted irl, I love how serious they take actually committing to acting out their parts

Tommy's pure amazement of Las Nevadas <3

QUACKITYS GIGGLE WHEN WILBUR SAID HE WAS IMPRESSED WITH IT IM FUCKIN CRYING

oop Wilbur is not invited to Las Nevadas?

(this is where it devolves :,D)

Y'all think Wilbur will somehow get his hands on Snowchester's missing nuke and blow up the prison to let him out or has the nuke been found already and I'm just being stupid?

Wilbur and Quackity are SUCH good actors, I genuinely cannot tell if they're actually trying to be good to Tommy or just lying to him to gain his trust or if they're just using him as a way to be better than the other

Very scared for when Wil visits Dream. Will Tommy follow him to try and stop him? Will Wil blow up at him and tell him off for trying to stop him? How will Dream react to Wilbur thinking of him as his hero?

Tommy was just vibin and trying not to be manipulated (again), i love that for him but i am also scared for him where is Puffy when you need her and her therapeutic self

"What could go wrong in a prison?" Sir pls

I SAW SOMEONE ON TWITTER MENTION WILBUR AND NIKI PLS I NEED THAT INTERACTION I WANT HIM TO APOLOGIZE AND NIKI TO EITHER NOT ACCEPT IT OR TELL HIM HOW MUCH SHIT HE PUT HER THROUGH

Tommy feeling like a third wheel and being like "should I leave or..?" while the two were literally being passive aggressive towards each other was so fucking funny

but was he wrong about the tension between them? no

Quackity apologists: HE JUST WANTS WHATS BEST FOR LAS NEVADAS AND WANTS TO GIVE TOMMY SOMEWHERE TO RELAX Wilbur apologists: HE WANTS TOMMY TO STAY WITH HIM AND GIVE HIM A PLACE TO FEEL COMFORTED Tommy apologists: DONT TRUST ANYONE Me, having not watched shit in months: lmao manipulation go brr

I actually have little idea of what's happened in DSMP, might spend summer break catching up, who knows

y'all freakin out about Wil, Tommy, and Quackity when I'm over here being impressed and lowkey scared of the gambling system Quackity has. what the fuck was that digging noise and why were there so many zombie noises when they entered it.

was the digging noise Foolish bc i saw his name as ppl on the server and he wasn't live but I could be wrong and he could just be grinding off screen but it's also very suspicious and I don't trust anything rn

ALSO MUCH FEAR OF THE STRIPPER PLACE WHY BIG Q WHY IS THIS TO COPE FOR YOUR HUSBANDS LEAVING YOU PLEASE

hehehe friends to enemies to lovers Quackity x Wilbur slowburn lmao don't take this seriously fanfic writers I see you do not write this-

noticed how Wilbur can't stand to have people be on the same level as him and even demanded Tommy get below him mom pick me up im scared

imagining Tommy just dragging Wil with him to a session with Puffy and it's just Puffy: okay, so- Wilbur: *launches a speech about how he's changed and Dream is his hero and how he wants to apologize for what he's done* Puffy: ... Tommy, in tears: please help him

I WAS ROCKING MYSELF IN MY CHAIR WHILE WILBUR AND QUACKITY FOUGHT OVER WHO HAD MANIPULATED AND HURT TOMMY WORSE but then I remembered they were fighting on a stone d!ck with dirt for hair and I laugh

when Wilbur brought up the fiances and Quackity just ignored it </3

so much lore, not enough brain space to process it

Quackity, Wilbur, and Tommy give off older brother and his friend messing with younger brother while also hating each other, yes or yes

in other words, great job to the three of them, enjoyed the stream and can't wait to see what comes

Getcha oc talks ⬇️

Hi I'm gonna ramble abt the hunters cast bcus I'm not thinkin abt any particular story rn and they're my default

Gabby really loves older music, her mom let her have her record player and records since she doesn't use them anymore and that's basically where gabby gets all her music from. She only was allowed to get a phone like the year hunters started, so before that she'd just dance around her room with her records :)

Genny is actually a fairly chill person in her day to day life, she's just like hash and peter in that hunters pushes her way out of her comfort zone, revealing parts of her personality that aren't normally present! I mean genny is still internally very irritable irl and will kill someone if they fuck with her son, but generally she's more aggressive in hunters than her normal life just bcus she's in high stakes situations and thus feels way more obligated to make everything go right

Genny reminded me of the neighborhood so I'm pivoting to that now sorry I'm easily distracted 💀

Tol and jay both have aspd which means no empathy or guilt biatch. Most ppl wouldn't really guess with Jay, hes masking 90% of the time bcus he needs attention and to be liked (not that this is a bad thing, bein good is bein good no matter what the motive! :D) but he does have a general distaste for doing things because he's told to

Tol also needs him attention but he mostly gets it by fuckin yelling and shit lol. He's a good pal tho, he's TRYING to be a good friend even if he sometimes doesn't exactly understand ppls feelings

Mm I'd u want me to ramble at u more u can ask but I feel like I'm typing too much ummum yeah 💀 I have a chart about not a word worldbuilding I could show u if u want, it's p simple but I didn't think to have that be the first thing I shared since u asked for oc stuff not worldbuilding lol

Edit: BTW THIS IS JAY,,, srry I forgot u don't know my ocs names gagsgsgsgas I'm gonna hope u know the other 3 tho if not I am sorry 💀

Ogghh my fucking b o d y
