[ cw: nightmares / trauma / ]

Post-invasion, Mikey sneaks into Leo’s room and when asked by Leo what the problem was, Mikey just smiles and says since he’s awake and knew Leo would be too, he didn’t want either of them alone. Leo laughs and lets Mikey stick around, both of them clumped together on Leo’s bed, watching grainy compilations of old Lou Jitsu commercials on Leo’s phone.

Technically, Mikey didn’t lie. He just didn’t explain everything that led him to Leo’s room. He didn’t explain the nightmare of his arms burning up too bright, too fast, destroyed before Raph and Donnie have a chance to help. He didn’t explain how he woke up with a wail caught in his throat, phantom pain in his arms and chest alike chasing away any semblance of exhaustion. He didn’t explain how his mind made sure he knew, vividly, that if one thing went wrong with his portal, then he would have never seen Leo again.

He didn’t explain, and he didn’t have to. Leo knows his brothers better than he knows himself, and Mikey has always been easy to read. So it’s no trouble to let Mikey know that he’s still with them, that Leo is here and alive with everyone else. And when Mikey finally regains his exhaustion and falls asleep leaning against Leo, Leo simply maneuvers him into a more comfortable position and stays by his side.

He doesn’t move, doesn’t go to sleep - not that he could, anyway. He just mindlessly scrolls on his phone, the soft snores of his little brother filling the room. He stays in place, awake, because he wants to be sure that when Mikey wakes up again it’s to the immediate sight that Leo is alive and well and home.

And, if Leo’s bring honest, that’s a reminder not just for Mikey’s sake.

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt mikey #rottmnt leo #rise mikey #rise leo #portal pals #one of my favorite things about Mikey is how self assured he really is not only in his skills but in his sense of self #but no matter how confident you are how much faith in yourself and others you have anyone can be struck by what ifs #and trauma isn’t so easily brushed over #so I can easily see Mikey struggling occasionally with the notion that ah. I did it. but what if I didn’t.#bros the worlds best mystic warrior in part because he can do real miracles #but miracles are only thought to be so because they’re near impossible feats #and with the knowledge that he is capable of opening timelines…I wonder if a part of Mikey fears falling into one where he failed #now - Mikey is not one to get wrapped up in insecurity he really isn’t #but for something so important and such a possible fear? at the very least I can see his subconscious manifesting a nightmare or two #most likely more - he’s a kid after all #they all are #ANYWAY love this duo lol #almost positive I wrote something similar to this wayyyyyy long ago but bleh I’ll write it again idc idc

Wei Wuxian and Narrative Agency – Part One

For Xiantober Day One: Genius… albeit stretching the prompt so it refers to MXTX and MDZS itself, but at the end of the day it’s still about WWX – so no harm done!

(Part Two | Part Three | Full version on AO3)

The narrative is a very active player in MDZS’ story. How it presents information, what it chooses to show and omit, often reflects important facets of its themes and characters – Nie Huaisang, for instance, is so good at hiding behind his mask that not even the narrative can hold him accountable; the present day’s storyline as a murder mystery and the slow reveal of information about the past both prompt the reader to think critically about the truth of events, when the importance of thinking critically is an important theme; and the dangers not thinking critically (and instead basing conclusions on rumours without much evidence) are shown by tricking unquestioning readers into the very same trap the cultivation world falls into, as the information given by the title, summary and in-universe rumours – which contradicts how we see actually Wei Wuxian act – turns out to be false.

But nowhere do I love this trait more than in its treatment of Wei Wuxian – and, more specifically, in its way of emphasising his agency. We’re not just told how much his active choices define his character, and we’re not just shown this in-universe through his personality, worldview and the events he causes. I’d argue that this aspect goes a step further, and shapes the structure of the out-of-universe narrative as well.

There are two main ways this happens: one, in how the aspects of Wei Wuxian’s life that are shown and hidden directly tell us what’s important about his character (which is good writing but isn’t necessarily tied to this shaping of the narrative), which is what we’ll explore today; and two, how what’s shown and hidden reflects what Wei Wuxian himself prefers to dwell on, resulting in the narrative respecting his own thoughts and feelings on matters (which very much is tied to it). We’ll explore this at a later date.

But as for now – let’s explore my favourite aspect of MDZS.

(Here, narrative agency will be considered the ability of a character to meaningfully influence their events and the story they’re in.)

Tragedy, Circumstance, Choice

If we simply look at Wei Wuxian’s backstory in a vacuum, it seems almost typically tragic. His parents died in circumstances beyond his control, he was left alone as a child with nobody to care for him, he was forced to grow up fending for himself on the streets, he was faced with abuse when he finally was taken in… as with all typical woobies, everything simply happened to him, and none of it was good. It’s just another example of the lack of agency being used for sympathy points, right?

…Except there’s one problem with that idea. We don’t actually see any of this.

It would’ve been easy to start the flashbacks during these times. We’re telling the story of Wei Wuxian in (largely) chronological order, and these are likely important experiences for him! But instead of starting in his street days, or evenat the moment Jiang Fengmian took him in*, we start at the lectures in the Cloud Recesses. That’s not even something mentioned in, and therefore something that’s able to disprove, the rumours at the start of the novel. So why is this the case?

Well, there are multiple reasons – the main one being that MDZS is also Lan Wangji’s (and Wangxian’s) story, and having the flashbacks open with their first meeting is very satisfying. But I want to focus on something else.

This period doesn’t have to be shown, because what happens to Wei Wuxian, especially out of his control, isn’t what’s important about his character.

We’re not even at Lotus Pier here, where Wei Wuxian certainly has more agency than he would’ve had as a young child, but where the harm caused by Madame Yu is still completely out of his control. Here, he has agency! Though there are consequences, he is free to act, and what happens to him is a result of those actions and not of circumstance. Yes, he gets punished more than others who also take those same actions (due to classism); yes, it’s not his choice to be picked on by Lan Qiren in class (yet look how he responds, twisting the situation to his advantage and ending up tricking Lan Qiren into letting him leave, which is what he wanted to do. He is not at all helpless here!); yes, these choices have been influenced by his learned mindset from Madame Yu that punishment is arbitrary and will happen anyway, so you may as well do what you want regardless. But there is cause-and-effect here. It’s not circumstantial tragedy.

Therefore, instead of our first impression of past!Wei Wuxian being that of an unfortunate woobie, it’s of someone who has the freedom, ability and will to choose and act (and that’s after these initial tragic events have taken place). This is compounded by the fact that before we see any of his backstory, we get a similar impression of him in the present day.

If the purpose of his tragic past was to earn him sympathy points, to make us pity him due to how much he was influenced by events out of his control, this would’ve been a terrible way of going about it… and it’s this that betrays the true reason for its existence. Because now, the flashbacks instead show us how little these tragedies define who he is! From the very start, Wei Wuxian isn’t someone defined by circumstances out of his control, but rather by who he is as a person and by what choices he makes in the present day (which is both a mindset in-universe, and a nice little out-of-universe detail that lines up! Because out-of-universe, this means he’s not defined by sympathy points from a backstory, but rather by his great character writing… aka, by who he is as a person and what choices he makes). And this refusal to be defined by tragedy is a conscious choice on his part, too – but we’ll explore that more later.

The important thing is that this idea of Wei Wuxian isn’t because of what exists in his past, it’s because of what parts of his past are shown to us (as well as what he chooses to do, with agency, in the present).

Now, if this relationship between what’s displayed and what’s omitted was just a one-time thing, I might’ve considered it a cool detail or a nice way to establish a character, but not something the narrative is actively focusing on. But it’s a pattern that continues throughout the flashbacks. What, arguably, are the two other most important times in Wei Wuxian’s life where he doesn’t have enough agency to meaningfully influence his circumstances? His three months in the Burial Mounds (before escaping – he managed to assume some control of the circumstances but not enough to substantially reduce his suffering in his time there), and his loss and death during the First Siege. And we’re not shown either of them! We skip to when Wei Wuxian has emerged from the Burial Mounds and is torturing the Wens, or we skip to the present day – both times he has agency once more, because, again, what he’s like without it doesn’t matter enough to be shown.

Furthermore, I’d argue this does actually contrast the other tragic events we see in Wei Wuxian’s later life. Things do go horribly wrong, but it’s either due to choices he knows the consequences of (see: rescuing the Wen Remnants in the first place), or instances where he still has some ability to act in the situation and influence it within the limitations. If he’d had no ability to influence circumstances at Qiongqi path, he would have died in the ambush; if he’d been unable to do that at Nightless City, he would’ve died then, too (of course Lan Wangji helped him escape as well). The attention drawn to him losing control of his actions in both instances is very interesting, but intentional or not, it’s still his actions influencing the plot. And that influence happens to be detrimental. The very ability to act and influence, at a base level, is not taken away (though, of course, that doesn’t make these events any less tragic).

So, so far, the narrative seems to be telling us that the ability to act and choose is key to Wei Wuxian’s character. And it’s doing it through omitting his moments without agency in favour of instead showing us his moments with it.

Let’s see if this is echoed in the text itself before we go further – because even with this pattern, nothing would end up mattering if Wei Wuxian’s agency wasn’t actually that important to the story itself. But thankfully it is, and that first impression we get of Wei Wuxian in the Cloud Recesses turns out to very much be accurate! Though there are defining circumstances out of his control that occur, such as the massacre of Lotus Pier, the majority of the important events of his life are due to his own choices. He didn’t happen to be forced to cease traditional cultivation and solely use guidao, didn’t happen to lose his Golden Core in a fight with Wen Zhuliu or due to some force in the Burial Mounds, it was his own choice to give it and his spiritual powers away. He didn’t tragically happen to get targeted by the cultivation world, it was a result of him acting on his morals and protecting the Wen remnants (a choice which he was fully aware of the implications of). He isn’t a protagonist to whom things simply occur, and that activeness and agency is my favourite thing about him.

That’s not to say that the times Wei Wuxian doesn’t have agency, or feels like he doesn’t have any, don’t exist at all, either – but they are rare enough to have attention directly drawn to them in his internal narration:

Or else what could he do? He could do nothing. He was powerless. Lotus Pier had been destroyed, both Jiang FengMian and Madam Yu were gone, and Jiang Cheng had disappeared as well. He was the only one left, alone, with not even a sword in his hands. He didn’t know anything, he couldn’t do anything! For the first time, he discovered how little his power was. In front of something as large as the QishanWen Sect, it was the same as a mantis trying to stop a chariot. - Chapter 59, EXR translation

(And even in this circumstance, note that he still does force himself to act – to carry on searching for Jiang Cheng, to place his faith in Wen Ning – and does accomplish his goal (albeit with the help of others)! So even in dire situations, he isn’t simply passive. This is actually also the case with his time in the Burial Mounds, almost certainly the First Siege, and even his days on the streets as well (Chapter 20: he did actively fight with dogs to get food despite their danger and his growing fear of them, rather than just waiting and hoping to somehow receive some more). He can’t influence or immediately influence his circumstances, but that doesn’t stop him from trying.)

Overall, although they do influence him, Wei Wuxian is very much who he is in spite of his circumstances, not because of them. We’re shown the importance of his agency both in-universe by the major impacts his choices have on himself and the plot, as well as by narrative presentation – important periods where he lacks the ability to meaningfully influence anything are often mentioned but not directly shown, which suggests that such moments and circumstances aren’t as important to understanding Wei Wuxian’s character as moments where he does have this agency are. And I’d argue this works very well. Depending on the version of the story you consume, you may end up having different interpretations as to how much circumstances were at play nearer the end of his life – but nobody comes out of MDZS thinking about Wei Wuxian, the poor bearer of yet another generically tragic backstory.

*We are shown this moment in more detail in Chapter 23… but even then, it’s through the framing of Wei Wuxian remembering Jiang Yanli’s narration, not through a flashback proper or even him remembering the experience itself!

#there are three parts to this #part two dwelling on how wwx not dwelling on tragedy is a conscious choice #part three about how that choice and wwx’s preferences are ALSO behind what’s shown and what’s not #i originally wanted to post them all at once but life was very busy and they haven’t been finished yet #and i wanted to release SOMETHING on this day (it is after midnight but i haven’t slept yet and in a lot of timezones it’s not yet)#judging by the current length of it it’s probably better to be posting individual parts anyway…#so here we go #a complete version will br put on ao3 when done #also because i’m not sure where to put it in the meta – i’m aware external circumstances did impact this too #eg mxtx not wanting to write power-up/transformation sequences influencing her not to write wwx’s time in the burial mounds #i’m also aware a lot of this could be writing efficiency and not the deeper meanings i’ll (mostly later) assign to it #ultimately there’s not enough evidence either way to say if this was intentional or not #(i don’t doubt mxtx is an amazing writer but *i* feel i’m overanalysing while writing this which i do tend to do)#but even if it wasn’t it’s still a part of the story #and it still remains one of the things i love it the most #so i WILL explore it (taking the approach of death of the author here – i do believe context is important but i just love this throughline-#-so much)#xiantober #xiantober day 1 #mdzs meta #my meta #wei wuxian #wwx #mdzs #mo dao zu shi #魔道祖师 #grandmaster of demonic cultivation #gdc

i need a fourth book about the foxes, pt1

about them during the summer, - the monsters staying with Abby including Neil since he has nowhere to go, like imagine how crazy Abby’s would be with the twins, Nicky, Kevin AND Neil all under one roof for and entire month and there’s no exy season yet

with the freshmen- Neil and Jack, i need to see their rivalry, i need to see Neil tearing him up whenever he steps out of place and i need to see Kevin’s “because he is worth more to the court than you will ever be”

the fall banquet,- this wouldn’t be as dramatic and the last banquets but i still need to see it, i know the ravens won’t be there but other teams will, imagine how they will treat the foxes after they win championships

the ravens match, - i NEED to read about this match from Neil’s POV i need to see how helpless he felt when Andrew was the first to be attacked and it was because of what Neil said, have Neil hear the crunch of his ribs after making that comment about Jeans, feel his anger when the Ravens attacked his Foxes, I NEED his pov, have him see Lane get dragged away only to feel the sense of fear again when shes running back to him and he’s helpless, Neil seeing Andrew get to her and have her in a chokehold while Andrew has a broken collarbone, Andrew getting pulled apart by refs after nearly being murdered and nearly murdering the person who tried to kill Neil

andreil and aaron at the hospital,- Neil with broken ribs and Andrew with a broken collarbone, the sense of fear Neil felt for Andrew, Andrew about to go through surgery, Neil fearing for Andrew praying and hoping he makes it out safely, the ride back to PSU,

@korakos

#i ahve a part two that i will do #i’m not sure how many parts this will get but i ahve so many things that nora could make a fourth book with #i’m begging #i will help her cowrite a fourth book if that’s what it takes #like i’ll pay for her to write it #i need it #omg i’m actually going crazy reading about the foxes in tgr #the golden raven #all for the game #aftg #the foxhole court #neil josten #kevin day #andrew minyard #i need a fourth foxes book

Too scared

Warning(s)/info: Featuring Miki’s uncle, Miki getting hurt, reader’s discretion is advised, i apologize in advance, modern au

Tagging: @shining-stars-of-love @nothingtoseehere1-2-3 @rosalinastan1 @ayunakatsukiwolfhashira @pinkwisteria @nimmie-nugget @kimetsu-chan @slayfics @circus-gone-wrong @frostburn-shoto @floofgryph @muichirolover14 @muichirosboba @kiyokatokito

Tanjiro and Mikitama are walking through the mall, hand-in-hand, when Tanjiro sees something, letting go to grab it and show it to his girlfriend. “Hey, angel look at th- angel???” He looks around worriedly, unsure of where she could’ve gone.

He walks around, looking around for her worriedly.

Tanjiro’s eyes widen when he sees Miki with her uncle.

Haruki grins as Mikitama takes shaky steps, following him with tears in her eyes.

Tanjiro rushes over and carefully takes Miki away from Haruki.

Before Tanjiro can say anything, Mikitama steps towards Haruki.

Tanjiro looks at her in confusion and worry. “A-angel..? What are you d-doing???”

Miki gulps nervously. “I-it’s for the best, Tanji…” She responds in a soft shaky voice, squeaking when Haruki grabs her arm roughly and pulling her along.

Tears fill Tanjiro’s eyes and he quickly calls Giyuu, explaining the situation.

“Tanjiro, you need to stall them until I can get there, okay?” Giyuu asks as the sound of jangling keys hits the phone’s receiver.

“Y-yes, sir. I can do that.” Tanjiro sniffles and wipes his eyes then grabs Miki’s wrist, pulling her back.

The two teenagers’ eyes widen when Haruki growls and lunges at them, Tanjiro reacts quickly and guards Mikitama.

He holds her tightly as he uses his body to shield her.

“Give me back my niece!!!” Haruki yells and Miki trembles as she clings to Tanjiro.

“Not in a million years!” Tanjiro says as he tightens his protective hold on Mikitama.

Moments later, Giyuu comes into the mall and makes a beeline for Mikitama, Tanjiro, and Haruki.

He starts arguing with Haruki and Miki’s eyes widen in fear as she notices her uncle fiddling with something in his pocket.

Tanjiro tries to stop her as she rushes to shove Haruki away from Giyuu while the former starts to pull out a knife.

Miki cries out in pain when the knife stabs into her stomach

“A-ANGEL!!!” Tanjiro shouts and rushes over, shoving Haruki away from Mikitama as Giyuu watches in shock.

Tears roll down his cheeks as Tanjiro holds Mikitama close in one arm while calling 911 with his free hand.

Giyuu slowly walks over, tears filling his eyes as he drops to his knees.

He takes Mikitama’s unconscious and bloody form in his arms.

“B-baby….” Giyuu whispered shakily, cupping Miki’s cheek in one hand, stroking the skin with his thumb.

The ambulance and police shows up a moment later and the nurses rush in and lift Mikitama onto the stretcher as the police take Haruki away.

The nurses ask Giyuu questions about what happened, also attempting to ask Tanjiro, who is far too distraught to answer them.

They let Giyuu and Tanjiro onto the ambulance with all of them.

Upon arrival to the hospital, Miki is immediately admitted to the intensive care unit where they will perform emergency surgery on her.

After the surgery, they allow Giyuu and Tanjiro into her room to stay with her.

Mikitama is hooked up to a heart monitor, an I.V., and medicine that will keep her asleep so she’ll get the rest she needs.

The sight is truly heartbreaking.

“M-Miki, why didn’t you just let it be me..?” Giyuu asks the sleeping girl in a shaky, teary voice as he holds one of her hands in his…

~the end~

sorry 🥲🫶💖

Finished my under 5K AU for the @ficwip August challenge and it clocks in at…4975 words lmao

Also, this is the fic I’ve posted about as coal before and I have changed the name, and elaborated on the concept. There will be a sequel coming from Roy’s perspective where this is from Jamie’s.

I’ll put another snippet under the cut (cw abuse):

Jamie Tartt was sixteen years old when he realised his father would likely kill him one day, the first time a forearm pressed against his throat and made it impossible to breathe, the first time Jamie realised he might have survived the night, but his luck wouldn’t last forever.

It was the first time Jamie learned it was safer to not fight back.

It had only been a little shove—a slight push after James had grabbed Jamie’s hair in his fist and pressed his face so close to his that James’ alcohol-tinged breath made his eyes water. Just enough to give Jamie some space, nothing compared to the marks his father’s hands had left on Jamie’s body over the years, but that was all it took to set James off. That was all it took for him to ensure Jamie never forgot this particular lesson.

#cw abuse #cw strangulation #cw abuse of a child #fic: coal #new title #fic: I worry I’ll die young #part two will be #writing update #fic: I worry I’ll grow old #jamie tartt #fuck Jamie’s dad

last dying words are a regular thing? and they were collected in the part one epigraphs for some reason? mostly all during the same twoish years?

I’m gonna point fingers and say this is a shard thing

but I need to go look back and see if there was a pattern in the words in the epigraphs that I maybe didn’t pick up on before, because I know sanderson likes his epigraphs

#stormlight archive #cosmere #way of kings #page 270 #oh but I am living for the epigraphs in part two so far #I don’t have quite enough to say yet to feel like making an actual post about it #but so long as I don’t get answers (which I’m sure I won’t because what fun would that be)#I’ll probably end up collecting them together at some point and making a wildly incorrect theory #they at least seem like they’re in chronological order #so I think it’s just a matter of which worlhopper is writing them #and to who!#like just going off the #“I realize that you are probably still angry. That is pleasant to know.”#and “I have come to rely upon your dissatisfaction with me. It is one of the cosmere's great constants I should think”#whoever it is probably thoroughly enjoys being annoying #and from the ones I’ve recently gotten to has knowledge on the other planets and shards and their history #and the history of the people controlling(/whatever the correct term is) the shards #so maybe hoid? but that seems too easy #who’d he be writing to??

The current writers’ group I’m in is very focused on the taking every step of your story and plotting it before writing your story approach. Which means there’s a lot of conversations of pitching your story, and a lot of writing outlines, of not only the major beats you want your story to hit, but also outlines of every scene. And I have to say how do people write like this? I know that this a popular strategy but it is driving me crazy. “What is the difference between how your character begins the story and how they end?” “What are the culminations within your story?” “What’s the new tension to keep your audience engaged?” How would I know? Although I could tell you if I actually sat down and wrote the story

#Biggest type of outline usually I’ll do is write two sentences AT MOST about different points I want to hit. If even that #I typically just write and see where the written words themselves take me #Can you see that in my writing? I haven’t posted any new writing in a while but is that a part you feel when reading it?

yet another oc that only exists because i wanted to write something very specific

(middle is a little older, hence her scar healing. i like to think she gets a glass eye at some point)

anyway this is mira! (they/she) since that wip is almost 20k words and counting i won’t give away too much but long story short she’s the result of meta going “one last time, i promise” and adopting yet another kid

also galaxia kinda indirectly picked the name :)

i’ve mentioned before that i headcanon that pretty much all astrals are autistic and this is just kinda an extension of that. whereas meta tends to suppress his emotions and conform to others, mira…doesn’t. she gets uncomfortable and upset and lashes out at people easily, and working through their emotions is no small task.

the main reason i chose to write them that way was for the sake of narrative but i’ve grown attached to it because there’s a lot of ideas there i’d like to explore. stuff about navigating emotions and relationships when existing is so suffocatingly uncomfortable. it’s not something i could center around Kirby himself, but i think it makes sense with a post character development meta knight.

they are very loved (omg oldee cameo???)

kirby was definitely very excited to have younger siblings after being used to being the youngest in the room for so long!! (with the like. one and only exception being gooey.) he’s super affectionate with both of them and wants to have a close relationship one day, but for now mira is pretty unappreciative of that fact lol. they don’t like being pestered for hugs

everyone else is okay tho

(i know that’s hard to read. oops. “obvious bite marks”. siblings being siblings.)

mira also has a very love/hate relationship with the egg kid, being so close in age they kinda Have to get along but in typical sibling nature they also fight a lot. sure it’s probably rough for a while but i think in the end they’d be good buddies. maybe not as close as Kirby and Bandee but still.

anyway i have a lot of thoughts and am very busy but. i’m really enjoying writing about all this lately it’s been fun ^^

#I picked a name and then proceeded to write a comic in pen in which i used that name and posted it #and only after all that did i learn that mira is becoming a very popular name. which i generally avoid #but oh well. it’s stuck #im gonna be completely honest a lot of how i pick names for characters is based off of how many puns i can make out of it #im sorry to disappoint you with that information /j #kirbyposting #my art or something #meta knight #kirby #king dedede #metadede #Kirby oc #semi future au #I swear i’ll introduce oldee one day im just bad at having drawing ideas #also trying very hard to not make self deprecating comments over some of this art cause i just. don’t really want to spend forever redrawing #stuff anymore. like I used to do for a lot of these posts. It’s whatever #anyway kinda a part two to yesterday’s post (as in: I made sure they were both ready at the same time so i could queue them together lol)#weirdly enough this isn’t all that different from my dmk interpretation #i can’t really decide what color she is either #part of me wants to say bright blue red eyes because i think that would look absolutely sick but that seems like a bit too much blue #all things considered #maybe bright yellow blue eyes idk ill figure it out later (maybe)
