guys hear me out imagine house md veterinary hospital au in which:
house got kicked by a cow during his internship and his leg didn’t heal properly which made him use a cane
he was forced to switch to small animal practice, he still hates clients but his fluffy patients love him for some unknown reason
wilson specialises in equine medicine (wilson is basically a horse girl) and because their hospital doesn’t get much calls for horse consults he spends most of his time being annoyed by house
instead of being exposed to hiv cameron gets bit by a rabid 16 year old yorkshire terrier
a lady comes with an obese labrador and chase nearly gets rabid himself
the ducklings are responsible for restraining first and treating patients second
foreman is afraid of small dogs
chase makes fun of him but he’s terrified as well
cameron has four senior sick rescue cats which seem to be immortal
house is addicted to ketamine instead of vicodin
there’s at least one joke about chase’s interest in bdsm and getting bit
wilson always gets a new golden retriever when entering a new marriage, the dogs always stay with his ex-wives
house constantly remarks that he should change his motorcycle for a horse to wilson’s horror
stevie mcqueen was actually brought to the hospital by a rescue for lab animals, house adopted stevie after his treatment was finished
cuddy specialises in animal reproduction and house constantly tries to win the argument by bringing puppies to her office (she folds on occasion)
house nearly does a necropsy on a goat with anthrax

Here’s a 30,000 word document about the implications of Brit’s promotion within the Marshford group and how it would lead to her eventual demise and also how she rose to the top in her group. It also delves into her relationship with Mallick, whose existence, I believe, is an obvious literary reference to an ancient Roman play read by only me and three other people currently alive. I translated relevant passages and included them in my work. I got understimulated around page 8 so I did take a break to pierce myself in the same spot that I believe Mallick would have a piercing.

Hi, thanks for checking out my writing!
I write purely for Din Djarin (though I read and rec other Pedro Pascal characters and other Star Wars media). Whilst not all my stories include smut, they usually contain adult themes and language, so they’re suitable for over-18s only 🔞
My writing is extremely detailed and character-oriented, and I research and proofread/edit thoroughly. I never start publishing something until it’s fully written. As a result, producing content takes me a while, but I hope this ensures that my completed works are high-quality, immersive experiences for my readers.
Please feel free to join my tag list.
**The emojis assigned to each fic below indicate moods rather than specific genres and are open to interpretation**
PUBLISHED WORKS:
🔷 Be-All And Endor [406,690 words]
My magnum opus; this is a novel-length slow burn set after season 2. Din has a bounty on Endor and gets more than he bargained for when Reader accidentally almost runs him down with her speeder in the forest. Over 1.6k kudos on AO3. [😍+🥰+🥵]
🔷 Never Look Down [13,160 words]
Two-part mini-series set on Nevarro after season 3, wherein Din falls for Grogu’s babysitter but resolves not to tell her… until a drunken misunderstanding results in some revelations. [😍+🫣 and a hint of 🥵]
🔷 Din Djarin: The Contractor [1,001 words]
An imagine-turned-one-shot that evolved from pics of Din holding a toolbox and the memory of Joel telling Ellie he used to be a contractor. Reader needs a repairman, and guess who shows up… [😡->���]
🔷 The Long Goodbye [45 words]
Flash fiction in 280 characters or less. An examination of why Ahsoka came looking for Din in ‘Chapter 13: The Jedi’ rather than waiting for him in Calodan like he asked. [🥺]
CURRENTLY BEING WRITTEN:
🔷 Hush
[snippet 1] [snippet 2] [snippet 3] I was assigned the genre ‘secret relationship’ in a roll-a-trope writing challenge, so this fic follows Din and Reader embarking on a clandestine liaison that they have to hide from Karga… because Reader is our favourite High Magistrate’s niece. Multi-chapter; features sneaking around, flimsy excuses, near misses, and furtive smut. [😏🤫🥵]
🔷 Held Is The Seed
[details & snippet] [snippet] A four-part smutty series. When a guy in a cantina claims Mandos make poor lovers, Reader leaps to Din’s defence and lists several ways in which he could, in fact, be exceptionally talented in bed. Din overhears and later offers to prove her assumptions true one by one. [😍->🥵]
🔷 To See A Thousand Things
[details & snippet] [snippet - 1st one down] An extremely smutty, angsty piece based on five firsts and one last. Din has something casual going with a gun shop owner over the years, but they both discover that anything long-term will inevitably transform into something that runs deep. [🥵+😭]
🔷 Aruetiise
[snippet - 2nd one down] One-shot based on the idea of Din and Reader both coming up with reasons they can’t be together, none of which are the same and all of which are idiotic. An argument finally leads to a conversation about it. [🥺…🥹🥰]
🔷 Final Sanctuary
[snippet - 3rd one down] [snippet] Smutty one-shot (will be lengthy) based on a fantasy Din has when his shipmate spills white dip on her chin, and how he manages to figure out flirting and make his fantasy a reality. [🥵->🥰]
🔷 Din Djarin In Jarringly Domestic Situations
[details & snippet] [more details] Space romcom involving a series of encounters in which Din meets the woman of his dreams, but each time, it’s in an embarrassing or awkward situation. [😍😳🥴]
FIC REQUESTS:
I’m very open to requests because having a deadline and someone waiting on me often helps motivate me to finish!
I’m flexible in terms of content, but please bear in mind that smut takes me a lot longer to write, and I lean towards fluff rather than angst (though I’m not opposed to the darker end of the scale). I’m also not a fan of breeding kink (sorry, I firmly believe Din is a reluctant father who loves Grogu but would have to be brought around to the idea of one day having his own) or daddy kink. Otherwise, please feel free to suggest anything that takes your fancy!
Ideally, short prompts or ideas for one-shots are best because I’m the girl who got over 400k words out of “slow burn set on Endor”, so the more complex your request, the bigger the undertaking, the longer it’ll take me to research and write (and the longer you’ll be waiting).
HOW TO SUPPORT ME:
If you’ve enjoyed my writing, please consider heading over to AO3 and adding some kudos to my fics there. Also, please consider reblogging any of my fics/series masterlists here on Tumblr. Both these actions increase visibility and help new readers to find my work long after publication. I don’t have a Ko-fi because I value online encouragement and marketing assistance more than cold, hard cash.
I also see spinoff media as the highest form of flattery, so if you feel like doing anything creative based around the universes I write, rest assured I’ll be here cheering you on and crying over how much I love you! It’s my dream for my writing to inspire others, whether it’s playing in my sandbox with me or crafting something of your own.
Thanks for your support; it means the galaxy to me! 💙🩵
🌀 I do NOT consent for my stories to be copied/reposted on any other site, nor stolen, scraped or reworked by AI 🌀

dating with jotaro.
request ; @needy-self-ship-jjba: can we have headcanons of what kind of dates jotaro like to go with his fem!s/o?
# tags: headcanon; current relationship; dates!au; romance; mostly fluff; a bit of comedy; soft!jotaro; pda; sfw
includes: female reader ft. jotaro kujo {jjba 3}
author’s note: i’m sorry you waited so so so long, darling. hope you will like it! also i tried to show the character of jotaro well! :D
↘ Jotaro doesn’t like dates. He’s not the type of romantic person who takes his girlfriend to exciting and crowded places.
↘ Jotaro is rather the type of man who chooses to spend time together at home or possibly in some deserted, quiet place (such as a park or a wild beach).
↘ Other types of dates that make sense to him include cooking together, going to a museum just before closing time, or a quick trip to the aquarium so he can see dolphins and other cute fishes, and buy a mascot in the shape of your favorite sea animal.
↘ I don’t think Jotaro is a clingy person either (or rather, he doesn’t look like that), but he has a cute little thing for you every time you meet each other – your favorite gummies, a basket full of fresh apples or a new keychain (you probably already have ten of them).
↘ In the privacy of your home, you like watching movies or series together, as well as eating salty or sweet snacks. He’s definitely a big spoon, therefore he’s the person who hugs you when you rest or sleep.
↘ I don’t think he’s a fan of study dates; however, if you are preparing for school or repeating material for a important test, Jotaro will certainly make an exception for you and test your knowledge by asking you various questions.
↘ Sometimes he acts like your father ‘cause he’s very worried and he feels an inner need to take care of your health; he will put a hat on you, give you his jacket, buy you something cold to drink during the hot season or, on the contrary, offer you some tea in late autumn and winter. He’ll definitely get upset if you don’t listen to him or do stupid things like running on slippery surfaces or staying up late on the phone/laptop.
↘ He rarely shows his emotions, but he really tries to be honest with you. You appreciate it very much!
↘ I also think that he’s very jealous and won’t be afraid to challenge someone to a duel. He doesn’t like to share, he doesn’t like other men close to you.
↘ But despite everything, he’s a good guy who always tries to respect you and take care for you (even though other women are reject quickly by him and he even insult them by saying that they’ll never be on your level).

hi! welcome to the always online au!
for anyone who was into the hype of parkner back in late 2019/the early quarantine days, this might be a little bit familiar to you. basically, this is a social media au for marvel that i created when getting into parkner and thompsborn and when one of the main wlw ships was mj/shuri. it consisted of screenshots of (obviously fake) social media accounts (mainly twitter) of some of the marvel characters and it was mostly shitposting with a tiny hint of a plot. however, because of the mental health kick that came with quarantine, i ended up deleting the account while in a depression drop.
it’s been over 3 years and i honestly miss making this au, as it was just fun and gave me something to do, and a few days ago i realized that i still have the apps i used when i originally made this au and all of the fake tweets and messages were still on them, so… well.
basically, i decided to bring it back!
so, if you don’t remember or never saw this au when it was originally happening, you might have some questions! under the cut is a very basic q&a:
what is the always online au about?
nothing! also everything! like i said, it was entirely a shitpost account that very vaguely had a plot, but it was 100% just something i did in my free time for fun!
it’s essentially me throwing my sense of humor in a box with ships and characters that i like and then violently shaking it until something that i find funny comes out and then i would post it !!
ships and characters? which ones?
like i mentioned above, i made this during like the late 2019-2020 era of parkner hype, so, obviously, it was mainly parkner (peter parker/harley keener) BUT it also features many other marvel ships! i am going to be changing the ships up a bit to better match my current preferences. i’ll include a list of ships below this paragraph, but first, this is also going to include PLENTY of platonic/familial dynamics as well! so if you love stucky, sorry they aren’t dating in this but they are obviously besties, and there’s irondad, stuff like that, okay? i’ll try to include it all!
ships:
parkner (peter parker/harley keener)
ironhusbands (tony stark/james rhodes)
gwemj (gwen stacy/michelle jones)
peppermay (pepper potts/may parker)
sambucky (sam wilson/bucky barnes)
thompsborn (harry osborn/flash thompson)
nedbetty (ned leeds/betty brant)
thorbruce (thor/bruce banner)
and more that i will add to this list as i figure them out! suggestions are more than welcome!
characters include everyone in the above mentioned ships (obviously lol) as well as any and all marvel/mcu characters that feel relevant to include! such as:
happy hogan
shuri
t’challa
the guardians of the galaxy
matt, foggy and karen from daredevil
funny accounts for villains
norman osborn (ew)
loki (and maybe mobius? maybe include that ship too? i haven’t watched loki season 2 yet so we’ll see i guess lmao)
and more! again, i am open to suggestions!
if anyone has ideas for characters, ships, or dynamics to include, feel free to message me or send an ask!!
how often should i expect updates?
that one is kind of tricky, because i am an adult with a full time job who is also balancing hobbies and family and everything all at the same time. this is something that i’ll try to work on during my free time, and when i did this before it wasn’t hard to make updates once i figured out what i wanted to do for them, but still, my free time kind of depends on the day and the week.
i’m not going to commit to a strict schedule, but i don’t work weekends so my goal is to update every weekend! if i miss a weekend, i’ll try to get it posted during the week, and if i have a week with extra free time, i’ll do some additional posts as well.
i’ll do my best to be regular with it!!
anything else i should know?
yes! this is an ongoing creative project that i’m doing for fun, and i want it to be fun for anyone and everyone who may come across it! that means i want it to be interactive!! this is something i did before, as well.
for instance, when i was running this au in 2019/2020, someone sent an ask wanting to see harley finding out about the vulture after him and peter start dating, so i answered the ask with this:
obviously this au isn’t picking up from where the old one left off, so those tweets are not considered canon to the current always online au, BUT that’s just an example! i want people to feel free to send in asks and questions for the characters or for situations, and i will do my best to make it fit into the canon of the au!!
i think that’s it?
if anyone has any additional questions, comments, or concerns they would like me to address, feel free to send them in! i’m going to try to get the first update of this au posted today (october 17, 2023) but no promises! if not today, it WILL be up tomorrow!
once the official au is being posted, i’m also going to create a pinned post that links to this one as well as all the au updates and anything else necessary to include (like the tagging system i’m going to create and things like that) so that will be posted shortly after the first update is out! for now, thank you for reading!
i hope to see you guys always online ;)

Tatsumi Kazehaya Idol Story 3
Author: Akira
Characters: Tatsumi, Hiyori, Jun
"I say the same to you. The bonds we develop with other people are always the treasures of our lives."
(Note: This is a translation of the current version of Tatsumi's Idol Story 3, which was rewritten after Obbligato. For the old version, you can read the one that's currently in Engstars.)
← Previous ✧ Directory
Season: Summer
Location: Staff Dining Hall
Tatsumi: Our Father who art in heaven, and Thy Son and Thy Holy Spirit... I express my gratitude for the food you have given me today. Amen. (Makes the sign of the cross)
Hiyori: You should just say "thank you for the food" like people normally do.
Tatsumi: Oh my. Hello, Hiyori-san. It's been a while, how nice to see you again.
Hiyori: Same to you. I heard a rumor that you were back, but I thought it must've been a lie since no one was talking about it at all.
By spreading the rumor that you, my former potential partner, have returned to work, it'll make my current partner anxious and motivate him~...
That sounds like a scheme Ibara might come up with.
Tatsumi: Fufu. As I am right now, I'm not worthy enough to be included in such a scheme. It's just that my injuries were not fully healed and I was in and out of the hospital a lot—
I think that due to my inability to do any proper activities, I haven't been the subject of much attention.
Even now, I'm branded as an "underachiever" because of that, and I'm still in a state of stagnation.
Hiyori: Huh, someone like you... The world really lacks a discerning eye for talent.
Well, it's always been the case that just as adults don't understand children, the higher-ups don't understand what goes on in the field.
...But if you're really in trouble, I'm willing to help you out, okay?
Tatsumi: I respectfully decline. This is the trial that I have been given, and I quite like the position I find myself in right now.
Besides, you of Eden, who are now the main earners of CosPro, will only lose money if you get involved with an underachiever.
Hiyori: Ahaha. You're worrying about others even though you're at rock bottom? Mhm, mhm, you haven't changed at all!
I don't hate that about you.
But actually, you belong to StarPro, don't you? If you're from a different agency, it'd be difficult to help you, and overstepping the bounds of authority would be a problem, right?
But, well. It's okay to help out as a friend, so if you're really in trouble, you should come to me ♪
Tatsumi: Very well, I will keep that in mind. Thank you, Hiyori-san.
Jun: Heeey, Ohii-sa~an? You told me to save us a seat, right? So can you please stop wanderin' around~?
Hiyori: Ahaha, sorry, Jun-kun! I just happened to see a nostalgic face...♪
Jun: A nostalgic face...? Eh, could you be Kazehaya Tatsumi-senpai?
Tatsumi: You're—
Jun: Ah, maybe you don't remember me?
We're in the same class at Reimei Academy, but you haven't come to school since forever ago.
But... Even if you forget me, I will never forget you. You were already a celebrity at Reimei Academy when I entered the school, Kazehaya-senpai~
You were a Special Student who stood alongside that top idol HiMERU as the Big Two, but you didn't act arrogant at all.
You were always reaching your hand out to those who weren't Special Students—
Everyone spoke about you as a great person, a saint, and the revolutionary of Reimei Academy~ For us underachievers, you were a beacon of hope.
Tatsumi: Fufu. I'm overrated. I suppose the rumors have taken a life of their own and gotten out of hand. I'm nowhere near as gifted as the other Special Students, who are all geniuses.
Jun: You're bein' too modest. You were only given the cold shoulder 'cause you disobeyed the higher-ups at CosPro by advocating against the "Special Student" system.
Besides. Despite disobeying the higher-ups, and even gettin' hospitalized, you only had to repeat a year 'cause you didn't have enough days of school attendance.
Normally, they woulda just cut you off and that'd be the end of it, but even though the higher-ups were displeased, they still valued you highly—that's what it means, right~?
For those of us who were unable to become Special Students, Kazehaya-senpai was the hero we yearned for. We all wanted to be like you, y'know~?
...Nah. Actually, you were the very salvation that could've saved us from rock bottom.
Tatsumi: ...Those stories are very old. I'm embarrassed.
Hiyori: Come on, Jun-kun, Tatsumi-kun is having a meal, so you shouldn't interrupt him.
Jun: You're the one who got involved first... But, well, you're right. We gotta finish our meals quickly and head to the next site.
First we have to eat.
But well, it was an honor to meet you... Tatsumi-senpai ♪
Tatsumi: I say the same to you. The bonds we develop with other people are always the treasures of our lives.
Hiyori: Mhm, mhm, Tatsumi-kun always has nothing but good things to say! Let's carefully listen to the sermon from the "saint", Jun-kun!
Tatsumi: I am no saint.
More importantly. I'm starting to enjoy our little chat, and since we don't know when we'll see each other again... I was wondering if you two would be interested in sharing a table?
Let's enjoy a friendly meal together, reminiscing and talking about various topics.
Hiyori: Wah, nice idea! With pleasure ♪
Come on, Jun-kun, I wish you'd hurry up and fetch the food trays!
Jun: Why don't you fetch them yourself? Ohii-san's always saying "My policy is to never carry anything heavier than chopsticks"... Mumble, mumble...
Tatsumi: Fufu. Let me help you, Jun-san.
Tatsumi: ...I'm glad to be able to sit at the same table with you after such a long time.
Jun: ...I knew it. You remembered me.
Tatsumi: Of course. Besides, you are a celebrity now.
I am but a relic of a bygone era, now you're the hero of Reimei Academy... Sazanami Jun-san.
Jun: Uwa, uwaah! That makes me sooo friggin' happy! Thank you so much!
After bein' pushed around by Ohii-san's selfishness so much, Kazehaya-senpai's kindness soaks into my exhausted heart~♪
Hiyori: Jun-kun, quit it. You're speaking too much.
Tatsumi: Fufu. Unexpectedly, it looks like it'll be a lively and enjoyable meal... I shall thank God for this fortuitous encounter... Amen ♪

Hi! Sorry for the bother… I’m rewatching season 1, and the subtitles are sometimes confusing. Season 1 also didn’t translate any text shown on screen, and I was wondering what this meant:
This is from Episode 3. It even zoomed in on this particular text:
I figured it was something important since they had to zoom in on it, and I don’t wanna miss out on that
Thanks for all the work you do here, btw!
Hi! It's not a bother at all, thank you for the question. This is indeed an important scene, and it's very true that not understanding what's written makes it confusing. Let's take a look!
The left page, the one that will be zoomed in, is rather mundane in its meanings, actually. It's imperial paperwork, essentially, referencing multiple governmental institutions.
Let's talk text first, then the red seals.
The text on the right essentially says something like "this had been reviewed and approved by the Chancellery". The Chancellery acted as both advisors to the rulers on various policy decisions and a channel for imperial edicts to be transmitted to other departments for implementation.
The text on the left says something like "Heavenly Empress of Wu Zhou". Wu Zhou is the title of the dynasty Empress Wu started. So this is essentially the closing lines of an imperial edict, I believe.
The seals are: on the left - Censorate, on the right - Ministry of Justice, on the bottom you might recognize that it's the Dali court.
The zoomed in part is the "Wu Zhou" text with the censorate seal over it.
Now, the right page provides context both for the document and for Li Bing's mental state in that scene. You might notice that several characters repeat in multiple lines - that's because the text on this page is names - and methods of punishment.
Many of the names start with the Li surname - Li Bing's surname - and are the names of his relatives. Most - and all on the screenshot above - were decapitated. A few were banished.
I looked up some of the names, but haven't been able to find anything, so I can't tell you for sure which names Li Bing is circling. There are at least five, only one with the Li surname.
I hope this helped provide the context! I'll be sure to include this in the translation if I ever get to doing season 1, but with my current schedule that's probably not happening until at least mid-summer...

Hello sorry to bother you with this all of sudden ,and this might be coming out of nowhere, and I’m not trying to force you or be pushy but I m trying to get more people into this show with great potential. If your not interested it’s fine but Have you heard of or watched moon girl and devil dinosaur? Season 2 comes out tomorrow February 2.
The main character i love she gives me autistic vibes I’m autistic. The show has interesting characters, action ,great music, and animation ,good themes and representation, Anime references, it even has an eyecatch season 2 is going to be more story driven if you find that interesting. It also shares the same animation studio as rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles.
It be good if you watch the first 2 season 2 episode when they air so the ratings will be higher. And watch the other season 2 episodes when they air.
I think Disney might be trying to sabotage the show with them probably dropping 14 episodes on Disney + on February 3. They did similar with season 1 and the ratings where low ,please watch season 2 episodes when they air on. But more importantly also watch it on Disney + on feb 3 and when they air it on YouTube. Unfortunately they are dropping 14 episodes on Disney + so watch them all in one day but also when they air the first time.
I’m not just saying only cable just also. I’m saying please support this show. Despite that it still won 5 Emmys. Also if it’s no trouble could if it alright with you spread the word about this show to others you know like either online or irl. Time is limited!
Hello! Thank you for the ask. I had been planning on watching Moon Girl for a while due to how amazing the clips of it I saw were but unfortunately due to current events I will not be watching it. Due to Israel’s current genocide against the Palestinian people, particularly in Gaza, me and many other people are participating in the BDS movement. A boycott campaign in order to divest funds from Israel. Here’s a link to it.
As people found out more about this many of us, including myself, have canceled our Disney + subscriptions as solidarity to this movement and because Disney is listed as a pressure target. Now recently they have also announced to FULLY boycott any marvel products because currently in the new Captain America 4 movie there is a character named Sabra who is an IDF soldier/terrorist and is essentially a PR Zionist “hero” for Israel. Because of this people have been telling Marvel to take her out COMPLETELY from the movie but they have currently not budged. So BDS has since called to boycott ALL things Marvel until this character is taken out. And that includes comics, movies, merchandise, and of course TV shows. Which means most likely Moon Girl is a part of the boycott list especially considering her show is on Disney + too. So the only way I would be watching this show would be through pirating. After this post I will not be promoting any Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur or any Marvel Content until Marvel removes the character Sabra from Captain America 4. I’m sorry if this isn’t the response you were hoping for but I hope this may lead you to joining this boycott as well and maybe even incline you to start educating yourself more on the genocide that is taking place right now as well as helping in ending Israeli occupation of Palestine.
If you are in the US like me you can actually download the 5 calls app in order to call our congress people and government to call for a permanent ceasefire and to not use our tax money to keep funding this white supremacist settler colony into existence. It even gives you a script on exactly what to say when you call.
I hope this has given you some insight on what’s going on and you can start doing some more research on what’s happening and what you can do about it. It’s never too late to take after Hobie Brown. 🕷️🕸️ 🎸🍉

OKAY some months ago I asked you about your views-per-season of The Flash and I loved all the answers and now it's time...to ask your overall views on Cobra Kai per season!!
Oooh interesting! My memory of CK events is not quite as strong as Flash events (considering I'm hyperfixated on the Flash and not CK currently), but I’m gonna do my best to cover all my bases. And ofc, anyone can feel free to ask me to expand on any of these:
Season 1
—Definitely my favorite season…mostly because it a) is the least terrible and b) had the most potential to improve
—Johnny’s arc started off so strong here. It makes me so sad. He was put on a journey to become a better person/father, and the later seasons just threw that away. But it’s wonderful here 💞 he’s a screw-up, but we have hope he’ll improve! Character growth and all that
—Miguel getting jealous of Sam and Robby is complete bs. Sam and Robby literally did not do anything!! They were just smiling and laughing together!! Having dinner together at the LaRusso house because Robby was staying with them!! They were being friendly!!
—And then on top of that, Miguel hurting Robby and then not even apologizing for it?? And not understanding why Sam was upset?? Just…ugh
—Sam apologizing to Aisha was sweet! Definitely something Aisha needed to hear 💞
Season 2
—I didn’t like either of the romances here, sorry. The chemistry didn’t click with me for Sam & Robby or Tory & Miguel—both pairs were far better as friends imo
—On that note: adding the romance was a bad decision imo! It did not add anything!! It was a lazy way of justifying the Sam-Tory rivalry, when class differences would’ve been way more compelling (and was, in fact, their initial reason for disliking each other!!). Honestly, if they need someone to fight over, why not Aisha?? Not every love triangle/corner has to be romantic—mix it up and make it platonic for once! It would make so much sense too—Sam betrayed Aisha, she apologized, they were mending bridges, now Aisha has a new friend in Tory and told Tory some not-so-nice things about Sam. There’s compelling drama! Who needs romantic love corner bs when the better option is right there
—I have mixed feelings about 2x8. Now, I’m a Samguel shipper and always will be, but that kiss was…something else, I did not like it (and I'm planning to fix it in my AU, when we get there). HOWEVER I want to make something clear: Sam was not an active participant in that kiss. She was so drunk she could barely walk, let alone make rational decisions (we see, later that episode, that she couldn’t make any decisions, actually—all she could do was beg Robby not to take her home!). Miguel, however, was an active participant in that kiss—we don’t know how much he had to drink, but it was definitely less than Sam, and he didn’t seem to struggle with speech, coherency, or walking. So either he was sober, or close to it…enough that he was aware of what he was doing
—In that vein: Tory knew that Sam was that drunk, and thus wouldn't have been actively participating in that kiss, so if she really wanted to go after someone as revenge for being cheated on…why not her boyfriend??
—Daniel was way too harsh on Robby. Robby didn’t do anything wrong!! Sam begged him not to take her home, so he took her somewhere else safe!!
—This season does a good job introducing Tory, though, and raising the stakes. The non-romance stuff going on is generally pretty good
Season 3
—Daniel & Johnny are once again idiots this season, and Robby deserves better than both of them. At least Daniel…sorta tries to make amends? But eh.
—That Japan plot line was…so random. I know why it was included (they had to nostalgia-bait us) but…it was so pointless??
—Chozen is awesome. I love him. I was sorta neutral about him in KK2 (I hated him for most of it, and then I felt a little sympathetic towards him by the end), but here?? He’s awesome! I love how he turned his life around, that he’s now friends with Kumiko, and that he teaches!! He’s a delight :D
—The Daniel/Kumiko scenes are wayyy too romanticized considering Daniel is married with two kids (fandom: this is a problem with you too. Stop romanticizing these scenes!! Cheating of any kind is not romantic!! Stop it!!)
—Johnny didn’t technically cheat since he and Carmen weren’t official or anything, but uh. If memory serves, he did sleep with Carmen the night before (correct me if I’m wrong), so going out on a date with Ali is very weird?? Idk if we were supposed to read romance into that interaction, I know they did part on polite, non-romantic terms, but it’s just….so weird. What is it with this season and trying to bring up old flames for some reason
—I’m also generally neutral on Johnny/Carmen, and it’s because from the minute they get together, Carmen starts being sidelined to no end. More on that in the s5 section, which is where she gets it the worst
—This is more of a fandom thing, but anyone who denies Sam’s PTSD or makes fun of it gets an instant block from me. Because literally wtf
—God I wish Daniel & Johnny’s rivalry had just ended here. That party scene of them making peace was so 🥺 it would’ve been the perfect transition point from rivals to friends/co-senseis
—Daniel and Johnny just leaving Robby with Kreese without even trying to object is just?? Why?? They couldn't even make a tiny effort?? Nothing?? (Also, Robby is legally Johnny's anyway, could he not just. Drag Robby away by force. Is now really the time to worry about whether your son likes you, Johnny?? Now of all times?? Mayhaps get him safe first, and then worry about stupid nonsense that's your own fault anyway??)
Season 4
—My least favorite season, hands down
—Amanda helping Tory based on Kreese’s advice is just downright stupid. There were so many other ways to do this plotline right. It doesn’t even make sense considering Amanda wanted to throw Tory in Shawshank last season!! But Kreese of all people changed her mind?? Give me a break
—I am a Sam LaRusso defender, especially in this season, but…her harassing Tory at work was uncalled for. Her beef with Tory was 100% valid, but there’s no reason to make work terrible for Tory too. And turning the kids against her?? Why?? The kids have no stake in this, leave them out of it!
—Tory/Robby is…fine, but much like the s2 ships, I never got the sparks from them
—Robby apologizing to Johnny is the worst thing ever. Still makes me so mad
—Anthony being the bully could’ve been great if they’d done anything with it. Drew parallels to Johnny, had Anthony realize how far he went and back off, something like that…but instead, Kenny strikes back and now Anthony becomes the victim. Great 🤦♀️
—Silver wasn’t good in this season 🤷♀️ sorry not sorry
—Daniel yelling at Anthony and breaking his tablet was wrong, full stop. I got so mad about this that I wrote a fix-it for it.
Season 5
—Johnny is a terrible dad, and this season confirmed that the writers either don’t know or don’t care about fixing that! In general as a character, he's been beyond saving for a few seasons, but...man this one just really hammered in how much he's regressed. He's just barely a few inches past s1, which is actually an improvement from s4!
—I can’t believe they keep giving Carmen less and less agency each season. I swear she’s just Johnny’s eye candy at this point, like wtf?? Hello?? Why is Johnny more of a presence in Miguel’s life than his OWN MOTHER?? Why is she reduced to “the mother of Johnny’s unborn baby”??
—The Mexico story was…fine, ig. However, Carmen barely being a player in that storyline will haunt me. Literally screw you, writers
—This season marks yet another POC introduced and inducted into…Cobra Kai. Yikes, guys. Your POC get to be written off the show, sidelined, or put into the “evil” dojo now, huh? Very progressive 🤦♀️
—Chozen was a star in this season, I still love him 🥰 however, there’s no way he and Kumiko were a couple. That was just dumb
—Tory being a mentor to Devon was sweet!
—I did not expect to like Mike Barnes in this season. Like omg. He was great (also…not to rec, but I’m totally gonna rec your series bad boy (no more) because I adore your characterization of him 💞)
—Why did Silver and Kreese split up?? Like…that was so dumb. Literally why did they do that. It was some bs about Johnny iirc, and I hate it.
—Listen. I am so glad Sam and Tory are friends now. So, SO glad (even tho I did that first smh). However, it will always irk me that Sam was the one to apologize first, not Tory
—Silver was an insanely menacing villain this season 💞 totally made up for last season when, imo, he was wasted. We get to see Daniel’s KK3 trauma on full display! However, I think bringing in another sensei (Kim Da Eun I think was her name?) to inflict that on Tory was very dumb. It should’ve been Silver himself doing that to Tory, not a new character we barely know
—Seriously guys can we stop introducing new characters?? Can we just flesh out the ones we already have??
—I have…mixed feelings about the crane kick. On the one hand, Silver being bested by his own technique + crane kick is satisfying to some degree, but on the other hand, it...goes counter to the themes of Miyagi-Do as presented in the movies. The show in general has this problem (which I've reblogged posts about, but I'm also happy to talk about in a separate ask) with treating violence as the Final Solution. This show misunderstands pacifism on a fundamental level, acting like it's a coward's way out and not a brave thing. Pacifism is not inaction—it is the active choice to refuse a fight with someone because it will do neither of you any good. Imagine how furious Silver would be if Daniel, kindhearted Daniel who has spent 3 movies learning the value of pacifism from Mr. Miyagi, just looked Silver in the eyes and refused to fight him!
Okay I...think that's everything? I've reblogged a lot of CK posts, so you can probably get a pretty good idea from those too, but generally speaking, these are my thoughts currently.

I do have a question about your Cookie Run paracosm although it has less to do with being game specific and is more general (?), but do you find yourself having to split the paracosm up in order to properly focus on certain parts?
Like in my paracosm, I have things separated by seasons (kinda how it is in game anyway) so I don't overwhelm myself with information and lore.
I will also say that it's a good thing that alot of Cookie Run Lore/gameplay youtube channels exist so I can at least reference some of the older events I missed when I wasn't playing the game!
Was going to answer the other answer in my inbox but this one is more easier for me to get out in a more timely manner, even though I’ve been sitting on these for a while [I have literally like 20 versions of the two main asks in my blog, including this one]
Generally my paracosms do have split ups into certain parts though they’re named differently in each paracosm or part of the mega paracosm. Though I’m trying to rein things in and give each of the names more meaning and streamline things.
So the plan currently is to classify things into:
Arcs - Generally for important arcs like in a lot of things, generally character driven and such.
Eras - This is based on the eras of our world, like the bronze age, middle ages, such. for the timeline of the general paracosm and compared to the mega paracosm
Seasons - [May be renamed] Based on cookie run primarily but categorized “events”, may be changed/split to general “retcon”/”rewrites” of the world. Retcons in the major sense like how skater cookie got retconned out of the crob/”ovenbreak” story.
Year - General categorization of well year. Using the earth’s definition of 365 days generally, but will try to mention any place that doesn’t use the same amount of days.
Seasons [Fall / Winter / Spring / Summer] - it’s the seasons. and it’s my world i use fall instead of autumn loool.
But just generally I split the mega paracosm into little tiny bytes, and tend to adopt abandoned projects to the lore.
[When I post the other ask, feel free to ask about specific stuff about the paras mentioned there. But feel free to just ask for now any cookie run based events, cutscenes, characters and such (please mention what game, there’s a lot of overlap between the various cookie run games) or for fun if anyone wants to give a random au idea and I might write something]
just generally feel free to ask, gonna also rb this on my [hopefully] more organized blog for asking abt my paracosms and such. *note the blog is a major work in a progress as I have issues
also sorry this is formated badly </3 I'm writing these in two different writing apps which when pasted into tumblr makes the formating terrible

Hi Max! I admire your work and, if it's all right with you, I have a few questions about it. First, as Ink Stains is coming to an end, do you have plans for a second season or some form of continuation? Petra is an intriguing character who I would want to see more of. Second question: what inspired Petra? For some reason, she feels both familiar and distinct. And, my final question: while it may be a little early, do you have any other series planned outside Pale Angels? That's all! 💗
Oh hello! Thank you so much for showing interest in my content, that really warms my heart <3 I rarely get questions on here about my shows so this message really brought me some joy just now lol. Well, you've just unlocked a Pandora's box of boxes so be ready for a LOT of information,,,
- Ink Stains season 2?
Sadly, Ink Stains won't get a second season. It was always intended to be a four part miniseries, and it wouldn't make much sense to expand that already small plot in any way. Even with just four episodes there were moments where I found it difficult to fill the airtime. The majority of the characters (in my opinion) are written so that they are only interesting in limited doses. BUT, although there won't be a second season, that doesn't mean there won't be "some form of continuation"... more on that is answered in the last question. >:)
- What inspired Petra?
I started working the concept for Ink Stains in early 2021, and it underwent many changes before it reached its current form. At the same time that I was rewriting the story, I was reading Marlen Haushofer's Mansarda. The book has nothing to do with the series or Petra, but for some reason it gave me new insights on how to (somewhat) soften her character, as the original plot and Petra's character were both significantly edgier. From there, I'm not even sure what inspired her or guided me to where she is today as a character. And tbh, I feel like her design makes her appear more intriguing than she actually is lmao.
- Future projects?
Nothing is really set in stone, buttt.. Pale Angels will feature a large cast as well as a good amount of episodes. By using the Sims 2 as a tool to tell your story, which can already be a draining af, working with such a vast cast on top of that, can be incredibly exhausting. I’m not gonna go into detail about that much, but basically everything takes longer and requires more planning... which is not always enjoyable.
Knowing myself, I will eventually start a different project alongside it to distract myself and prevent burnout. This is where Ink Stains comes into play.
With Ink Stains, the size of the cast has always been one of my biggest issues. I ended up including more characters than necessary to tell the story because of my writing skills—or, to put it more accurately, lack thereof. Victor, Petra, and Fren were always supposed to be the only three characters in the story, but other characters were ultimately needed to progress plotlines, offer the main protagonists difficulties to overcome, and generally give them more depth… And I hate that.
Don't get me wrong, I love all the supporting and minor characters in the show, but I do wish I were a better writer and didn't need such gimmicks to tell that particular story. Of course there will always be a need for background characters, but not to this extent. To get to the point already LMAO my next project will be similar to Ink Stains and will only have three characters as its main focus. Although it might not be a sequel, it will be a type of continuation with the same-ish coming of age/indie story and similar vibes.
Damnnnn this is long. I'm sorry if this was boring to read, but I do hope you found my rambling enjoyable, and that I answered you questions. <333

Welcome to the I Dream of Twilight Sparkle roleplaying blog! Here you can interact and get text-only responses in more faster response time as opposed to pick-and-choosing for sprite comics and/or while I’m working on stories for either this blog or over on my other main blog, Geniequestria (Which in itself has a roleplaying sideblog too, over here!)
Perhaps the best part is this allows interactions with characters I’m just not able to put in Sprite comics for much. I expect for the most part in the near future most of my spriting will be for images for Geniequestria. I’m not saying I won’t do any more images for I Dream of Twilight Sparkle (In fact, I can promise that I will have something with at least a few images on the main blog soon enough).
The hope is to have some more active responses, as it seems at the very least the way I had it seems to just be outdated in this day and age. I didn’t want role-plays to overflow the main content that IDOTS has had. The important story stuff is still on the main blog, while most of the community interaction is elsewhere. (I would still appreciate asks being sent over there, but perhaps all the story I've done has made people believe I've shifted it entirely from being an ask blog. Which... in a way is true, It's just I haven't found use for the many asks I still have in the box. It's just that I developed a story that I could follow-up on without the need of asks)
I should at mention a few rules and/or important notes
- This being a more wholesome, mostly show-tone sort of blog. This means no violence/gore or situations of a sexual nature. If you want some of the latter, Geniequestria and it's respective roleplay blog provides more leeway with that. Though even that blog is not meant to go overboard with it.
- If you’re new to my stuff and don’t quite understand many of the lore and differences important to I Dream of Twilight Sparkle. (Cause I know asking people to read all of Secrets of the Dragon’s Tear can be a big ask. I know it’s quite long and I’m sorry something so essential to understand what much of going on is a big read) You can ask me directly whether through Tumblr messages or asking me on my mod blog to try to leviate any confusion. There is also 2 FAQ's, one that was for the early years of the blog, the other for specifically what was revealed in Secrets of the Dragon's Tear
- There is a huge cast of characters you can interact with in this blog. Just about any recurring character you can think of should be possible. Twilight, Spike, Starlight, and Sunset are probably my recommendations as the more central figures of the blog historically (The latter two more recently). But the rest of the mane 6, CMCs (Especially if you ask for their grown-up selves in the time skip) and more are options as well.
However, there are at least 3 that currently aren’t options because… well… they’re trapped in stone in both of the possible timelines currently. That’s Cozy Glow, Tirek, and Zathir. Technically Chrysalis if you count the Post-S9 version, Chrysalis would be exclusive to the timeskip. Though I would wait until Earnest Empathetic Change is over first. Another timeskip exclusive character would be Flurry Heart, as well, of course the Post-S9 version is still simply a baby.
But otherwise most of everyone else, including many spirits (Including such ponies as Applejack’s parents) due to Spirit Summoning being a thing in this universe. Just mention who you want to interact with, whether you want to see the timeskip or mostly shortly after Season 9 and Secrets of the Dragon’s Tear. So have fun!
To get started simply use the ask box to suggest which character you want to speak with. And then whether it's a question or the beginning of an interaction. We can go from there!
P.S. For out of character/planning. You may have the choice of using Tumblr messages, asking me on my mod blog, or we can friend eachother on Discord (Please ask first however!)

I’m loving the new Dragon Prince season! And Terry is great! But my Aussie bf is absolutely fuming at how atrocious the accents are lol. Even I can tell that it’s quite grim for the whole lot of the Earthblood accents 😂
Apparently Rayla’s Scottish accent isn’t too bad? Like B average kinda range? I wonder how the Sunfire elves’ accent is

The ending of subnautica is so bittersweet. Like you’ve saved the sea emperors and watched them grow up but you also saw their parent pass away after thanking you. You’ve spent so long loving the world and calling it home but now you have to leave, so you say goodbye to your cuddlefish and it suddenly cries and hugs you and your heart snaps in half. Then you board your rocket and blast off leaving only your little time capsule of advice behind for a fellow soul in the future. You think wow, that’s it. But THEN the sea emperor vision comes out of nowhere talking about how you’re both connected and it just gut punches you right in the feels before cutting to credits on a black screen where you stare at the emotional wreck that is your own reflection.
Anyways 10/10 highly recommend would destroy my emotional stability again.

What's Happening in China? The November 2022 Protests
Hello! I know that there's so much going on in the world right now, so not everyone may be aware of what is happening in China right now. I thought that I would try to write a brief explainer, because the current wave of protests is truly unprecedented in the past 30+ years, and there is a lot of fear over what may happen next. For context, I'm doing this as someone who has a PhD in Asian Studies specialising in contemporary Chinese politics, so I don't know everything but I have researched China for many years.
I'll post some decent links at the end along with some China specialists & journalists I follow on Twitter (yeah I know, but it's still the place for the stuff at the moment). Here are the bullet points for those who just want a brief update:
Xi Jinping's government is still enacting a strict Zero Covid policy enforced by state surveillance and strict lockdowns.
On 24 November a fire in an apartment in Urumqi, Xinjiang province, killed 10. Many blamed strict quarantine policies on preventing evacuation.
Protests followed and have since spread nationwide.
Protesters are taking steps not seen since Tiananmen in 1989, including public chants for Xi and the CCP to step down.
Everyone is currently unsure how the government will respond.
More in-depth discussion and links under the cut:
First a caveat: this is my own analysis/explanation as a Chinese politics specialist. I will include links to read further from other experts and journalists. Also, this will be quite long, so sorry about that!
China's (aka Xi Jinping's) Covid Policy:
The first and most important context: Xi has committed to a strict Zero Covid policy in China, and has refused to change course. Now, other countries have had similar approaches and they undoubtedly saved lives - I was fortunate to live in New Zealand until this year, and Prime Minister Ardern's Zero Covid approach in 2020-2021 helped protect many. The difference is in the style/scope of enforcement, the use of vaccines, and the variant at play. China has stepped up its control on public life over the past 10 years, and has used this to enforce strict quarantine measures without full regard to the impact on people's lives - stories of people not getting food were common. Quarantine has also become a feared situation, as China moves people to facilities often little better than prisons and allegedly without much protection from catching Covid within. A personal friend in Zhengzhou went through national, then provincial, then local quarantines when moving back from NZ, and she has since done her best to avoid going back for her own mental and physical health. Xi has also committed China to its two home-grown vaccines, Sinovac and Sinopharm, both of which have low/dubious efficacy and are considered ineffective against new variants. Finally, with delta and then omicron most of the Zero-Covid countries have modified their approach due to the inability to maintain zero cases. China remains the only country still enacting whole-city eradication lockdowns, and they have become more frequent to the point that several are happening at any given time. The result is a population that is incredibly frustrated and losing hope amidst endless lockdowns and perceived ineffectiveness to address the pandemic.
Other Issues at Play:
Beyond the Covid situation, China is also wrestling with the continued slowdown in its economic growth. While its economic rise and annual GDP growth was nigh meteoric from the 80s to the 00s, it has been slowing over the past ten years, and the government is attempting to manage the transition away from an export-oriented economy to a more fully developed one. However, things are still uncertain, and Covid has taken its toll as it has elsewhere the past couple of years. Youth unemployment in particular is reaching new highs at around 20%, and Xi largely ignored this in his speech at the Party Congress in October (where he entered an unprecedented third term). As a result of the perceived uselessness of China's harsh work culture and its failure to result in a better life, many young Chinese have been promoting 躺平 tǎng píng or "lying flat", aka doing the bare minimum just to get by (similar to the English "quiet quitting"). The combination of economic issues and a botched Covid approach is important, as these directly affect the lives of ordinary middle-class Chinese, and historical it has only been when this occurred that mass movements really took off. The most famous, Tiananmen in 1989, followed China's opening up economic reforms and the dismantling of many economic safety nets allowing for growing inequality. While movements in China often grow to include other topics, having a foundation in something negatively impacting the average Han Chinese person's livelihood is important.
The Spark - 24 Nov 2022 Urumqi Apartment Fire:
The current protests were sparked by a recent fire that broke out in a flat in Urumqi, capital of the Xinjiang province. (This is the same Xinjiang that is home to the Uighur people, against whom China has enacted a campaign of genocide and cultural destruction.) The fire occurred in the evening and resulted in 10 deaths, which many online blamed on the strict lockdown measures imposed by officials, who prevented people from leaving their homes. It even resulted in a rare public apology by city officials. However, with anger being so high nationwide, in addition to many smaller protests that have occurred over the past two years, this incident has ignited a nationwide movement.
The Protests and Their Significance:
The protests that have broken out over the past couple of days representing the largest and most significant challenge to the leadership since the 1989 Tiananmen movement. Similar to that movement, these protests have occurred at universities and cities across the country, with many students taking part openly. This scale is almost unseen in China, particularly for an anti-government protest. Other than Tiananmen in 1989, the most widespread movements that have occurred have been incidents such as the protest of the 1999 Belgrade bombings or the 2005 and then 2012 anti-Japanese protests, all of which were about anger toward a foreign country.
Beyond the scale the protests are hugely significant in their message as well. Protesters are publicly shouting the phrases "习近平下台 Xí Jìnpíng xiàtái!" and "共产党 下台 Gòngchǎndǎng xiàtái!", which mean "Xi Jinping, step down/resign!" and "CCP, step down/resign!" respectively. To shout a direct slogan for the government to resign is unheard of in China, particularly as Xi has tightened control of civil society. And people are doing this across the country in the thousands, openly and in front of police. This is a major challenge for a leader and party who have prioritised regime stability as a core interest for the majority of their history.
Looking Ahead:
Right now, as of 15:00 Australian Eastern time on Monday, 28 November 2022, the protests are only in their first couple of days and we are unsure as to how the government will respond. Police have already been seen beating protesters and journalists and dragging them away in vehicles. However, in many cases the protests have largely been monitored by police but still permitted to occur. There seems to be uncertainty as to how they want to respond just yet, and as such no unified approach.
Many potential outcomes exist, and I would warn everyone to be careful in overplaying what can be achieved. Most experts I have read are not really expecting this to result in Xi's resignation or regime change - these things are possible, surely, but it is a major task to achieve and the unity & scale of the protest movement remains to be fully seen. The government may retaliate with a hard crackdown as it has done with Tiananmen and other protests throughout the years. It may also quietly revamp some policies without publicly admitting a change in order to both pacify protesters and save face. The CCP often uses mixed tactics, both coopting and suppressing protest movements over the years depending on the situation. Changing from Zero Covid may prove more challenging though, given how much Xi has staked his political reputation on enforcing it.
What is important for everyone online, especially those of us abroad, is to watch out for the misinformation campaign the government will launch to counter these protests. Already twitter is reportedly seeing hundreds of Chinese bot accounts mass post escort advertisements using various city names in order to drown out protest results in the site's search engine. Chinese officials will also likely invoke the standard narrative of Western influence and CIA tactics as the reason behind the protests, as they did during the Hong Kong protests.
Finally, there will be a new surge of misinformation and bad takes from tankies, or leftists who uncritically support authoritarian regimes so long as they are anti-US. An infamous one, the Qiao Collective, has already worked to shift the narrative away from the protests and onto debating the merits of Zero Covid. This is largely similar to pro-Putin leftists attempting the justify his invasion of Ukraine. Always remember that the same values that you use to criticise Western countries should be used to criticise authoritarian regimes as well - opposing US militarism and racism, for example, is not incompatible with opposing China's acts of genocide and state suppression. If you want further info (and some good sardonic humour) on the absurd takes and misinfo from pro-China tankies, I would recommend checking out Brian Hioe in the links below.
Finally, keep in mind that this is a grass-roots protest made by people in China, who are putting their own lives at risk to demonstrate openly like this. There have already been so many acts of bravery by those who just want a better future for themselves and their country, and it is belittling and disingenuous to wave away everything they are doing as being just a "Western front" or a few "fringe extremists".

Event Info
WHUMPTOBER is a month-long, prompt-based creation challenge (think: Inktober, but whumpier). There are 31 Official themes this year - one for each day of the month - which can be used, skipped, or combined in any way you’d like. They are meant to serve as inspiration without being taken literally (e.g. you don't have to include the exact wording into your work). Additionally, there are 3 prompts for each theme. These are optional suggestions and can be used in conjunction with the theme, or as options/alternatives. We want to give everyone as much creative freedom as possible, as well as increase event accessibility for folks with triggers and squicks.
Creators can PRODUCE work in any media they choose, including but not limited to: writing, visual artwork, and photo/video/audio edits. Creators can PARTICIPATE as much or as little as they want (i.e. you don’t have to do ALL the prompts if you don’t want to) and prompts can be used in any order. They are also free to use even after the event ends.
When uploading Whumptober content to your blog, be sure to tag the with:
#whumptober2020 …..(the event tag)
#no.1, #no.2, #no.3, …..(theme number)
#bruised, #stabbed, …..(the theme or specific prompt you chose)
#fandom or #OC
#medium …..(gifs, fic, podcast, art, etc.)
#teeth, #etc …..(trigger warnings & any additional tags. Keep in mind not to add “tw” in front but only use the word/trigger itself, because tumblr sucks)
#nsfw, #nsfwhump …..(only for nsfw content)
PLEASE BE DILIGENT WITH YOUR TAGGING. Only properly tagged posts are considered for archiving on the official @whumptober2020 blog. They must be tagged in the order above.
Unfortunately, due to the sheer number of participants in recent years, we cannot guarantee your work will be archived. A random selection of properly tagged posts from all genres will be reblogged each day.
Whumpers who produce content for 31 total theme days are considered event completionists and will be tagged in a masterpost at the end of the month.
Questions not addressed below can be directed to this blog as well.
Thanks for reading, and happy whumping!
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What kind of content can I make? Can it be NSFW?
This is a MIXED MEDIA event! You can write fic, post meta, doodle or paint, create a gif set or photo edit, link a song, or get crafty with video - anything goes. As for NSFW, make what you like, we just hope that you’ll tag your work accordingly so that others participating in the event can stay safe :)
Q. Do I have to do all 31 Days? Can I post early/late?
Participate as much or little as you like, and post whenever! Just be sure to tag your posts properly (ex. #no.11, #psych101). Combining prompts into one piece of work is okay, and posting late is as well so as long as it’s in October.
Q. What if I don’t understand a theme?
Send us an ask! We’re happy to help clarify. That said, the themes are entirely up for interpretation :)
Q. Can I combine Whumptober with other creation challenges?
Absolutely! That’s like shooting two whumpees with one bullet :)
Q. Can I upload/repost my whumptober content to other social media platforms?
Of course! We’ve created an AO3 Collection to archive any fics posted there. The archive can be accessed here. The blog is the official archive, so please respect the boundaries of any closeted whumpers in your social circle :)
Q. Can I use prompts to write a new chapter for an existing fic?
Yes
Q. An existing fic I am currently writing contains many of the Whumptober prompts, can I use it?
If you are actively writing this fic at the moment with the whumptober prompts in mind, yes. If it just conveniently checks the boxes, then please don’t. You can, however, add new chapters answering one or more of the prompts.
Q. What kind of characters can I write for?
Fandom characters, OC characters, human, furry, alien, cyborg, whoever you like.
Q. Can I use a prompt multiple times?
Yes, but it only counts once
Q. If I’m not comfortable with one day's prompts can I use a prompt of a different day as a substitute and still be a completionist?
Yes, but please do not use a specific prompt twice. We have also created an alternate prompts list that you can draw from [here].
Q. Where can I post my work?
Post where and how you want. You don’t even have to (cross)post it to Tumblr. Just keep in mind if it’s not on Tumblr we will not be able to add it to the blog archive.
Q. Can I start posting early?
You can, but this is an October event and wouldn’t it be more fun with everyone doing it at the same time? That being said, you can post early, but we won’t be reblogging any work predating October 1st.
Q. Do I have to finish a fic I started/can I post WIP’s.?
Yes you can post WIPs. And you’re not obligated to finish it in October for it to count towards being a completionist.
Q. Is co-writing allowed?
Yes, absolutely, and it would count towards being a completionist for both/all of you :)
Q. Do I have to create 31 standalone pieces to be considered a completionist or can I write one continuous story?
One continuous story is fine. The challenge is to write something for 31 prompts. If that’s spread over 31 fics or just one, you are still considered a completionist. (The same goes for every other media you choose.)
Q. Is there a min/max limit on word count?
There is no limit
Q. Can I combine prompts? Is there a limit on how many?
No limit and combine as many as you’d like.
Q. Is a hc/angst focus ok?
Of course!
Q. What’s considered nsfw?
See this post
Q. What's whump?
See this post
Q. My interpretation of the prompt isn't whumpy at all, does that count?
No, sorry, but keep in mind that whump [see definition] is something very nuanced and different for everyone and emotional whump/angst is just as much part of it, as is physical whump and torture. So before you dismiss your idea, think about this.
Q. Can I start working on the prompts before October?
Absolutely! That’s why we posted the prompts a month in advance. We recognise how difficult it can be creating for 31 days in “real time”.
Q. How do I tag triggers?
tw at the end of the word, ex. emeto tw
Q. Do I have to use your tags?
Yes, if you want your work archived on the blog. If not, feel free to use whatever tags you want.
Q. Does combining prompts count towards completion?
Yes
Q. Can we @ you?
Yes but we mostly rely on the whumptober2020 tag
Q. Is there anything we are absolutely not allowed to write?
There are no rules, just be sure to properly tag your trigger warnings. And keep in mind Tumblr’s policies if you are posting it here (or the policies of whatever site you use).
Q. Where can I go for brainstorming help?
Here on Discord
Q. My characters are minors, is that ok?
Yes, but as with everything else, tags are your best friend.
Q. Can I cross post on other blogs?
Yes, multiple platforms and blogs are perfectly acceptable. You can also post different works to different accounts under different names, without posting them everywhere at once.
Note: This is a creation challenge, please don’t repost your old work under our tags (unless it’s been changed or edited for the event).

Monthly likes/dislikes
❣️ Ocean Likes Me - I know this show never got a lot of attention and most reviews are mediocre but guess what I disagree kfjdghfd. I loved it so much. I already talked about it but I thought the dynamic between the mains was fantastic and they were so adorable it made me sick dfkjghf. The power lies in its minimalism, everything feels natural and they’re one of the few pairings in a kbl that actually feel like a realistic couple lol. Han Gi Chan is outstanding in this and considering this is Holland’s acting debut, he did a very decent job as well. Also the cinematography? stunning. I went in with zero expectations and came out with teary heart eyes lol. 11/10 🥺
👎🏻 That’s My Candy - This was super frustrating because I actually went into it with decent expectations. The plot setup sounded good, I liked the premise of an established couple facing difficulties etc. and I was hoping for KimCop to redeem themselves after Gen Y 2. But boy was I wrong. It was so bad. holy shit. I usually try to hold back with overly bad criticism out of respect for the people who like it but I’m sorry if you like this,,,,, what’s wrong with you djgkd. The plot made zero sense and it got continuously worse. By the end it was nothing more than random out-of-context scenes cut together with no point whatsoever. When will KimCop make better life choices. -3/10.
