A BRIEF PAUSE

From my regularly scheduled content. I’ve got some shit to say, y’all (forewarning for spicy language and spoilers)

I thought about making this post on my fandom subblog but this show and this relationship have been TOO important to me for the past 8 years to not give it its proper place in my life. strap in bc im not sure how long this mf is about to be.

When i started this DUMB show at age 19 tortured soul “empath” dark academia me thought sam winchester was going to be my favourite character. and don’t @ me, i love sam now in his own right (and we deserve some SAILEEN PEOPLE). but after literally less than 5 episodes i KNEW dean’s character and his arc were going to be amazing and beautiful and he immediately became my favourite brother. The nuances of his character i.e. his shell vs his true self were so evident to me even in the first couple seasons. in my humble opinion, he had the most growth of the two brothers.

They all deserve to be happy, but for whatever FUCKING reason dean has the HARDEST TIME OF ANYONE being happy in this show. I know it’s his character. I know it was written that way. But FFS. I kept wondering when they were going to wrap up his emotional arc and stop torturing the poor dude.

then in season 4 they introduced castiel and 1) I thought the new concept of angels as assholes was super cool and 2) I hardcore SIMPED over misha collins (still do). I watched benignly as cas and dean began to form this relationship that seemed pretty special. I started watching the show when it was in its eighth season and I binged the shit out of it for two weeks until I was caught up. By the time I was caught up I was CERTAIN there were some feelings between them and I LOVED it. I am bisexual and I was ECSTATIC for a potential queer relationship between two masculine-portrayed dudes. I went on tumblr to express my newfound theory, only to find out that this was a real THING. “Destiel” was already an idea that had absolutely and intensely BLOSSOMED in the fandom for several seasons already. So many others saw what I saw and saw the potential of emotionally tortured/constipated “daddy’s blunt instrument” dean and the unfeeling daddy’s boy cas “crack in his chassis” Winchester being allowed to be happy together. I felt validated and hopeful. For a while.

Then it was season after season of hopefulness for them to be finally happy with each other while still fighting the ills of their world with sam and the other new members of their family that were added along the way, only to constantly have that hope seemingly teased away at the end every single time. By season 11 and the introduction of amara (not bashing, eventually loved her character and her development too) I gave up. I lost hope. I stopped watching the show. I didn’t want to keep watching my two favourite characters continuously abused by the story they were thrown into.

I know not everyone likes destiel, not everyone thought it was real. That’s chill, idc. Stories are so often meant to be (and sometimes inadvertently) left up to interpretation by the person experiencing and consuming them. It’s what’s so amazing about books and shows and movies that are able to make us feel so intensely about them and their characters. And I felt SO strongly about dean and cas. It was honestly really upsetting to me, the way the show was going with their relationship.

A while later season 13 had been going on and I started seeing some things pop up on my dash. Hopeful things. I did a bit of research and accidentally saw THE SCENE from season 12 and I couldn’t help myself. I restarted it. I watched the whole thing from the beginning again AND introduced it to my boyfriend I think partially as a way to ensure I wasn’t imagining shit (it took him awhile and a lot of me internally screaming during many scenes but by season 9 he was like “uh are they in gay love”). Fast forward to me finally catching up as season 14 was starting. I was still hopeful, somehow. And it happened AGAIN. Season 14 and the beginnings of 15 made me so sad. I HATED what they did with their relationship. I HATED the way it ended. I HATED the way dean treated cas and everyone around him. It felt like the show was taking his whole character arc back to day 1. I didn’t understand. I kept watching for a couple episodes after the big argument and cas left but the luster was gone and eventually I just stopped.

I love this show. It has meant so much to me as a story. So many of the characters are/were very dear to me. I know it’s a running joke with this show about character deaths and homophobia but the strength of the bond I felt was between cas and dean gave me a lot of hope. But it wasn’t enough. I felt betrayed one too many times. And for those of you who kept watching, for whatever reason, I don’t hold it against you. It’s still a beautiful and interesting story without cas and dean’s relationship. But I just personally couldn’t do it anymore.

I hadn’t planned on watching the rest of season 15 when it came back after pandemic hiatus, at least not for awhile. So imagine my FUCKING surprise when I was doom scrolling through twitter during election week on Thursday and I see supernatural trending right along with election shit.

What.

I couldn’t stop myself, I looked and literally SCREAMED and made my boyfriend spill his wine all over our couch. I didn’t know exactly what happened as I hadn’t seen the episode but APPARENTLY all my emotions and feelings had been at least partially vindicated. So I BOUGHT season 15 so I could finish watching where I had left off. I watched 8 episodes in less than 24hrs (don’t judge me there’s a quarantine) and I LIKED them. And it might’ve been bc I knew what was about to happen in 15 x18 but I really felt like the show was getting STRONGER as it neared its finish.

I was so excited for 15x19. I read so many posts from fellow fans, destiel and antis alike. There really weren’t a lot of bad emotions running around. Everyone seemed hopeful and excited like me.

I probably don’t need to go over 15x19 emotions but im going to anyway. I was disappointed. I was confused. I was angry. we are in season 15. The last season ever for this show that has had a HUGE following of fans who have loved it, sometimes unconditionally, sometimes even though it wasn’t the best (and sometimes less than good). A season and show that had just announced YES. CAS LOVES DEAN. ITS REAL. And I shouldn’t have to go over the nuances of why we would expect more after this, with two episodes to go before the show is done forever.

But I will bc im mad af.

Like I said in the beginning. Dean’s character arc has been incredible. His emotional growth – as subtle as it might’ve seemed – has been amazing. And dean has always been an emotional, loving person. he just felt like he wasn’t because the world made him feel that way. And that’s sad, y’all. Dean deserves to realize he DESERVES happiness. And in 15x18, we were finally heading basically directly there. With destiel, yes, but even if you’re anti, what cas said to dean about who he is and why he loves him obviously struck a fucking chord with dean. It obviously changed the way he viewed himself (RE: “that’s not who I am, that’s not who we are”).

But for WHATEVER reason that’s ALL we got in 15x19. One fucking SENTENCE about dean realizing maybe he’s not just built to kill people. And then jack leaves without a single mention of Eileen or cas or Charlie or literally anyone they ever cared about and dean rode off into the sunset alone with his brother while we watched a fucking FIVE MINUTE MONTAGE that made me want to hurl my own body into the sun they were driving toward. And cas is STILL DEAD.

BUT THERE’S STILL ONE EPISODE LEFT AND FUCK ME IF I HAVENT BEEN PAINTING ON MY CLOWN MAKEUP ALL WEEK. SO WHAT DO I WANT????

ONE: DEAN DESERVES HAPPINESS. REAL HAPPINESS. What the FUCK supernatural??? Wasn’t this the whole point of his arc??? And don’t get me wrong I REALLY want that happiness to come from Cas and a real spoken relationship of some sort between them bc it also ties in with my second point but tbh just PLEASE let dean be happy. Dean is a loving person and does everything for love as we JUST FOUND OUT. Dean would NOT be happy with everyone he’s ever loved gone for the rest of his life. I just don’t believe that’s fucking true. h elp him pls.

TWO: CAS DESERVES HAPPINESS. I know we got this whole speech about “happiness isn’t in the having it’s simply in being” but like. Really. Castiel was supposed to be a throwaway character no one was supposed to care about. But we all cared SO MUCH that he lasted 11 SEASONS longer than intended and became a main character and an integral part of the story. Cas has arguably sacrificed more than anyone on this show. His last act was to sacrifice his life to save the man he loved. He knew where he was going. He knew he was finally going to be able to tell dean he loved him and then immediately be taken by the empty where we know now thanks to season 15 that everyone in there just gets to dream forever about their regrets and sadness. HOW IS THAT FAIR. HOW IS THAT A GOOD ENDING FOR CAS. HOW DO YOU EXPECT ANYONE – CHARACTERS AND FANS ALIKE –TO BE HAPPY ABOUT THAT. Its messed up, supernatural. Y’all KNOW it is and I hope to HIGH HEAVENS this is going to be corrected in 15x20.

THREE: give sam Eileen back.

Well that’s all I’ve got in me, folks. I’m absolutely and intensely dreading Thursday. Im scared and nervous and obviously still angry that this is absolutely going to be the opposite of what they promised – another “game of thrones” ending. Some of y’all are giving me hope with your posts about maybe they’re trying to keep the ending a surprise and maybe cas is coming back and how can they not and why else would they have done the second to last episode like that and I hope yall are right.

Either way, im glad I am not alone with my feelings. Thanks yall for the experience of this fandom and show. Let’s stick together on Thursday, no matter our differences.

PS stop calling jensen ackles a homophobe or ill hex you.

#supernatural #destiel #deancas #oh and #saileen #just to make sure theyre not forgotten #dean winchester #castiel #Misha Collins #jensen ackles #15x18 #15x20 #15x19 #i fucking guess #dean x castiel #casdean #castiel x dean #supernatural season 15

BNHA 249 - I’m so tense I need a massage after this chapter

It looks like if Endeavor is gonna have a redemption arc, this is the beginning of it. I know the fan base has a lot of mixed feelings about him being redeemed—heck, even I’m not sure about the best approach to narrate his story well enough for his family to forgive him and for the audience to accept this forgiveness. I hope Horikoshi narrates this as fairly as he did in this chapter, which is art-wise and narrative-wise one of the best chapters I’ve seen him and his team produce so far!

But first! Look at this angry gremlin and his wild hair?! And look at Burnin’, I want this woman to step on me pls

The good thing about BNHA is that we are shown that quirks have limits and heroes pay for pushing the limits with their quirk. Gosh, look at the details on Bakugou’s hands and Shouto’s arm. This isn’t new in the manga but I appreciate that it’s something that they consistently show, that what they’re doing requires a lot of hard work and practice

Gosh,,, Fuyumi,,,, waifu,,, she’s just so happy that Shouto has friends,,, even with Katsuki screaming at Shouto about them totally NOT being friends there’s nothing he can do with Fuyumi smiling like that... he even stopped screaming 🥰

Poor Deku though? He rarely gets invited to a friend’s house? :( I guess he didn’t have friends in middle school :(

I like these panels, and the ones that follow. The facial expressions and body language were drawn so well that you see the tension apart from being described by words. Endeavor is squared up by himself at the head of the table like he knows that his presence there is ruining everything. Natsuo sitting the farthest away, not once smiling like he does around Rei. Shouto also sitting far away from Endeavor. Fuyumi trying her best to engage everyone, smiling no matter what anyone says

And Deku and Katsuki powering through an awkward family dinner;;; been there done that boys, I know exactly how it feels

Other cute details: Deku mumbling about the chicken; Katsuki approving of Fuyumi’s mapo tofu; Natsuo’s shirt. I want that shirt pls

Oof, Shouto’s face here... he’s trying his best to understand what has happened to him and I think it’s interesting that he has never blamed Rei for what had happened. But this poor kid!!! All that pain, all that trauma and he has to decide to accept his experience as a side effect of someone else’s abuse while being abused himself... the level of understanding and growth he has to have had. :(

I like that Fuyumi admits that she also has a hard time forgiving Enji, but the concept of family is more important to her. The siblings show an interesting gradient of dealing with pain—Fuyumi trying to ignore it, Natsuo never forgiving and forgetting, and Shouto trying his best to accept things as they are even though it’s difficult. :(

Katsukiiiiiii, tsundere boy,,, fixing awkward situations by yelling, giving another shout out to Fuyumi’s mapo tofu. How good was it anyway? Will he be able to eat more of it in the future, in a happier Todoroki family dinner????

I love Shouto’s face T_T he looks so genuinely surprised to hear that he’s kind. Speaking of which, who said that line? It makes more sense for Deku to say it but the art makes it looks like it’s Bakugou who tells him that he’s kind,,, be still my todobaku heart

I agree with the sentiment that it’s okay for them to never forgive Endeavor for what he’s done? Or at least, to be at peace with their past from a far away distance where they can cut him off from their lives, if they really want to or need to. Forgiveness is a difficult choice to make. As Deku mentioned, it takes a lot of preparation for it to be meaningful... but Shouto is kind, who’s worked hard to process all the things he’s been put through. Seems likely that Endeavor is going to be forgiven in the future no matter what we say haha

Unless,,,

.. the truth about Touya is about to come out, which will make forgiveness harder.

So I’ve seen a lot of debates on tumblr and Twitter that because Touya has light-colored hair he must be Green but that doesn’t make sense;; Touya has a fire quirk, after all, and he should have been the next Endeavor if he wasn’t so weak to his quirk. Meanwhile Geten is an ice-user who has verbalized that he worked hard by himself to maximize the use of his quirk. In other words, the opposite of what we know about Touya so far

Ah, but Touya though... what a pretty boy :( his skin is so flawless in the picture, no burn marks or signs of pain or abuse. I wonder what happened???

Touya’s hair is red in the anime, but drawn differently here? The shade of red that the Todorokis have should be colored black in the manga. This could mean that a) Touya’s hair was colored wrongly in the anime (which is unlikely, shouldn’t they have consulted Hori over something as important as that?) b) Touya has naturally pale hair but has had it artificially colored during a part of his childhood for some reason, and then turned it white for this specific photo (which is really complicated), or c) there’s a reason, stylistically, why his hair is drawn differently from the others;;;

I’m saying, the differences might be it’s to emphasize that his hair might look different now—like, jet black maybe 🤔

Then again, Touya is supposed to be dead :( I wonder how his death happened? If we don’t see his body in the next chapters I’m sure it means that he isn’t dead yet;; that’s just how it is in manga

Dabi is a Todoroki, almost confirmed;;; I can’t wait for the next chapter!!!

#bnha spoilers #dabi #todoroki touya #todoroki shouto #midoriya izuku #bakugo katsuki #todoroki fuyumi #todoroki natsuo #todoroki enji #todoroki family drama #meta by juni #does dabi is a todoroki #long post

Marinette Update! And Mitty dev-talks!

Hello my friends! Mitt is here with yet another post! Did you miss me? Probably not because tumblr is dead. And I’ve been pretty active on twitter and twitch. lalalala

I’ll be very honest in this post about my feelings and such.

We’ll be talking about the game’s progress, what I’ve been up to, and I’ll also discuss some things regarding the Teal Crown blog.

It’s kind of a personal post! So grab your cookies and let’s talk <3

So, there was a need to make a post like this since I’ve been feeling really weird towards posting progress updates here on tumblr for a few months now.

Updating whoever is still around here on the game and on better ways to follow it’s progress, the developers, and overall what we will do from now on is something I should’ve done a long time ago! aaaa

I also kind of want to see what the reaction to this post is. We are almost at 1000 followers, yet I’m afraid almost everyone is not active anymore, and I’m not sure on who still remembers this blog ahaha. Let’s consider this post a test, too! >w<

Honestly, this is a very comfy place to post, Tumblr’s layout for making posts and everything is still one of the best around for me, however, I’ve been feeling the need to write long and well articulated posts about the progress of the game but for some reason that need has also been draining me quite a bit here even though I do really want to make these posts.

It’s really weird.

I will try my best to post more progress updates here from time to time, but I want to try different ways to let the message across.

It feels like this is supposed to be a blog for the team, but I still keep it very personal like when I started it. I believe that’s my mistake!

That’s the main reason I’ve been getting discouraged from making those personal long dev talk posts by myself.

I’ve thought about moving personal development updates to my Youtube, and that’s probably what I will do in the near future!

I realized that video form is better for this in one of my last streams where I was working on busts for the game. I talked about some insights, feelings, and direction updates. It felt more natural and personal, and I think it’s the next right step to follow.

I’d like to keep a blog for more professional and straight forward updates. I’m not sure, but I’ll probably move out of tumblr and branch out! It’s scary but...

Let’s do this together.

Also, I’m sorry for missing some asks from months ago, I felt like I needed to take a break to get my mind straight on what I want this blog to be. I’ll be answering them soon!

As of right now, the most personal and accurate way to know what’s going on with the development, is to go to our Discord, and poke us there.

We are very close to finishing Marinette’s demo. It’s all mostly done, and I’ve been polishing, adding busts and fixing bugs and some other stuff.

But I want to personally talk with you guys about how I’ve been feeling about it too, as the main developer and artist for the game.

The demo is supposed to have already been done a few months ago, however, I really want to vent to you all that the fact that we are so close to it it’s been making me a mess ahaha

I feel like I’m so proud of it, but the release has been stressing me out a little. I’m scared. I shouldn’t be, but I am!

This stress has been leading me to avoid programming at all, since doing that would mean finishing the game’s demo(?)

Don’t get me wrong, I AM excited! A whole lot!!

But I’m also scared of the reception and everything.

What if it passes completely under the radar and I feel like no one else is as passionate about it? I don’t want to disappoint my team members either...

But then I realize that finishing it is so much more important, and I’m sure there are people that are excited and have been expressing their support time and time again! There’s nothing to worry about... But the thought of indiference kind of agonizes me. I’m scared of having expectations, but it’s innevitable.

This thought has been flowing through my head since I released my short comic. I felt like I worked so hard on it, but I didn’t market it enough. Which leads me to my next point.

I feel like I need to invest a little more into getting the word about the game out there a little more! I’m still quite inexperienced, and don’t know much about how to market a game and get people interested, but it’s important for me as an artist too. I feel like it’s something I have to prove to myself in a way.

I’ll be going to university this year, and I’m unsure on how long it’ll take to finish the whole game. But it’s such a great project that I’m so passionate about finishing.

Because of this, I have been thinking and decided that if the reception of the demo is great enough, I’ll be investing more than my personal time into finishing the game.

The project is really ambitious, and even though I can tackle it in due time, like I’ve been doing for the demo, if I want it to actually come out this decade, I MUST let go of the thought that I have to do everything myself.

We have a team. Yet, although there are writers, composers and artists to help with concepting, I’m still doing the in-game art and programming. Which would be fine, If I weren’t such a perfectionist in both. I love having the in-game assets mostly done by myself, and I don’t think I can give that up.

However, I feel like I have to give up on doing all the programming by myself.

With this, I mean that after the demo is released, I’ll be seeking someone to work with and program the game with. I’m not sure on where to look, or how to do this, but I wanted to get this word out there. I’ll be thankfull if anyone points me in the right direction.

I’ve also been trying to juggle the game and my own career as an artist, so it’s been quite a fun ride!

Now, Finally...

YES!! MOSTLY DONE!!!

The whole demo is fully playable.

We’ll be entering beta testing when I’m done polishing. I don’t know how long this will take, but I’m trying to tackle a little every day, and with the summer holidays coming, I will probably be done with it this year.

Keep in mind, the demo is quite long!

During the Beta testing phase I will probably start working more towards marketing and building hype somehow.

All that’s left for me to do is polishing some visuals(like adding busts, some sprites for background characters, tutorial and maybe an extra room for the developers), adding some sound effects and missing dialogue which is already written ( as well as flavour text ™ ) and fixing bugs.

As I’ve already said before, for more consistent updates, while I’m deciding the future of this blog, feel free to poke our Discord, my Twitter, or talking to me live on Twitch.

TO FINISH OFF, SUPPORT THE OTHER TEAM MEMBERS

I also feel the need to shout out everyone that’s been helping so far!

You can check out everyone in the Team section of the blog, but I wanna shout them out in this post too, even though some of them don’t have links, but you can poke most of us on discord! (If you guys want me to add different links let me know!)

This is my personal thanks to all of you for putting up with me for so long!

folklore theory

alright, hi! pls forgive me if someone already wrote this on tumblr/twitter, i promise it was unintentional! i’ve just been listening to folklore and doing my hw all day so i haven’t searched up theories... but i needed to write this down because i’m in awe of taylor alison swift (as always) 😭😭

this is the timeline i think so i’m going to rearrange the songs to explain the “movie” or the whole novel layout according to my theory:

1. i’m torn between placing cardigan and august as the beginning. i think these occur simultaneously in time. cardigan (betty/rebekah’s pov) and august (the other girl’s) can occur in snapshots. if it were a movie it would perhaps switch between the the two girls, and while in “august” it would show a male figure who would remain faceless... for now!

2. the next part of the story is the reunion of betty and james, so the next song is ‘betty.’ it would be rather dramatic, i can see james tearing himself apart, staring at betty across the school, across the gym, staring at his car keys wondering if he should show up at her door, and the scene ends with the two of them on betty’s front porch... and betty forgives him because she always knew he would come back to her, and he’s repentant. they’re both only 17, after all, and mistakes happen and are easily forgiven.

3. now it’s a flash forward, years pass, and the next song is “illicit affairs” and i can also see “this is me trying” happening simultaneously. james is cheating on betty because once a cheater always a cheater, and betty keeps trying to keep the relationship going, keeps forgiving, even if she “follows her fears” and knows he’s cheating. but she’s trying to keep the relationship... and james doesn’t have a clue because (spoiler) he didn’t see the signs of her even trying or finding out lmao.

4. “mad woman” and “hoax” are the next songs and this is betty ‘losing it’ because of james’ continued affairs/cheating. betty is growing bitter and can’t keep forgiving because she does value herself more than this, even if she loves/loved him. this is an angry period, and of course i can see this scene as a lot of slamming doors, screaming fights, james’ confused face, and betty is losing all her love for him... but the love is there slightly, which is why i chose to tie in hoax into this timeline. james’ faithless love is something she can trust in and all she wants is for james to give her a reason to stay but he doesn’t even realize.

5. finally we’re at “exile” and wow, james is finally like?? wait?? there were signs!? you’re leaving me? but i thought you knew you were my homeland, my favorite cardigan - but it’s not enough anymore and the signs of betty leaving were all there! james is just a fool (clearly i am not a james fan, oops).

6. “my tears ricochet” is the divorce of james and betty. the ‘wake’ is the death of their love/marriage and james is in her jewels because at this time i assume the man benefits if the woman wants a divorce? even if he cheated?? idk this part needs research but that’s my tentative explanation. also the ‘jewels’ are the diamonds of her love that he took. but betty’s heart is closed to him officially and she knows she deserves better than him... and the person who loved him, the betty she was, is dead. she’s rebekah now. betty is dead to james and herself.

7. flash forward in time again, years pass, and rebekah is happier on her own and she meets bill! this is where “peace” comes in, and she knows she is a girl on fire, but she is ‘mad’ and a divorcee, so she wonders if bill wants to marry her when he will have no peace if he does.

8. perhaps during this time i can also see a sort of side story of ‘the other girl’ from “august” and the song “the 1″ ties in! she wasn’t james’ one, but they had fun and this is just a side story where the other girl ponders on their time together in a sort of ‘huh, wonder how it would’ve been if it would’ve gone somewhere,’ but it didn’t because they weren’t each others’ ones. not too sure but i can see references to films, the times they had, etc., so it made me wonder if it was part of the storyline too!

9. the end of the movie/novel is “the last great american dynasty” and it’s the happy ending of rebekah and bill in their holiday house! rebekah is a ‘mad woman’ and the all the other people in town have a lot to say, but rebekah is glowing with happiness as is bill, and as the viewers that’s all we need to see after the harrowing journey! ... and at the very end, we can see how holiday house passes on from owners until it arrives in taylor’s hand! it’s be a cute easter egg if it were made into a movie (hint hint!).

i don’t know how to fit in mirrorball, seven, invisible string, and epiphany into the storyline so i think these are unrelated folktales? or maybe i’m missing something 😨😨😨

but yeah! i’m in love with folklore and it’s been on repeat since it came out and it makes me want to go find a stranger, fall in love, and get my heartbroken... just so i can write poetry and sip wine while pondering on love and the meaning of life! 💞

@taylorswift it’d be cool if you’d let me know what you think? 🥺👉🏼👈🏼

#taylor swift #folklore #taylor writes only masterpieces #taylor swift is her own competition #theories #swifties #folklore theories #i've been crying to folklore all day haha i'm fine #i love taylor with all my heart #taylor swift saved 2020 #ts8 #taylornation #taylornoticeme #taylor notice this #taylurking

who are your favorite invader zim/zadr artists and why are they your favorites?

Oh boi time to tag the senpais aksjaksjaksja also pls! If you’re an IZ/ZaDr artist yourself pls show your face, lemme see your stuff, lemme add you to my favorite list 👀 👀 I’m always looking for more beans to follow and show my love and support

@bamsara is actually the main reason why I got dragged to the zadr fandom in the first place aksjaksjak most specifically, this post. That post took my soul out of my body and made me go deep into the zadr tag aksjaksjaks I mean I already shipped it at the time but that post. That post! Dragged me to the ZaDr mess. I love it. Not only that, their whole gallery is filled with adorable and funny Zim and Dib interactions and I honestly love them aksjak never stop being awesome

@inimoose was the second artist I ended up following and oh… Oh boi. I fell in love with her zadr stuff!!! The right amount of cute and funny. Her anime-ish style, her coloring!

Oh my freaking god………… She makes me suffer and I love it because it’s guud pain and suffering aksjhaksjakskas pls Reyna never stop I beg u

@my-secret-alien-stash is another bean with amazing and funny comics and a art style that makes me giggle with how cool it is aksjaksja and like, they’re an amazing artist!!! I followed their dA later and I was very impressed, their drawings are just amazing! Their techniques, the way they play with colors, it’s just UGH, big inspiration!

I don’t know if it’s okay to put them here because… Well, it’s being a hard situation, but Recapkid’s art was also something I enjoyed seeing here on Tumblr. I joined the fandom right when the whole shit storm was happening to them... They had a deep connection to the ship and they managed to work hard to make it both cute, angst, and they worked hard to keep the boys close to the canon! It’s just… Sad that a bunch of cowards forced them to leave the fandom. Still, their stuff was great. I really hope they’re doing well and that these cowards, these pieces of shit, leave them alone. And may the cowards floor be replaced with legos

#anon asks #izzy speaks #amazing artists #pls follow them #also support recapkid #they did nothing wrong #send them love

Can you pls show me some more otome tumblr blogs! I was so hoping for a Vain, Viggo and Zett route... Where is the best otome community site, like reddit or discord or something?

owo yeah, here are some of my friends/fave blogs!

@swordsmanofsweets @lizzylunawizardessfanfics @nadia-the-wizardess @leonthecardboardunicorn @florinarden @wizardessfleur @sigurdcurtisholdsmegentle @uraminowaltz

So for community sites. I think this can be pretty subjective so I’m gonna try and like, fully explain pros and cons and why I like it. In my opinion, I would consider Tumblr the best otome community site. I’d say it’s fairly easy to find fandoms on Tumblr and if you want to reach out to people, you can pretty easily do it. However, the biggest reason I love Tumblr is because it’s a very low-pressure social media site. This site allows for a lot of anonymity and I really, really appreciate that. Here I can talk all about how I want Hugo Peers to Wreck Me and everyone’s like “me too” but if I said same things on other platforms, it’d be a one-way ticket to Horny Jail. Jokes aside tho, there’s more anonymity here and the site is better set up for all kinds of posts, in my opinion. One con is tho is that because most interactions on this site happen privately, it can be a little intimidating to reach others.

Discord: Another huge favorite of mine. I absolutely adore Discord. I think it’s an amazing tool for making close friends with other people in the fandom and Discord is honestly such a solid program anyway. You can just go to a place and talk to people with the same interests and just have a good time. The major downside is is that like any group chat with friends, there can be a LOT of drama. I know with the old WH RP server there was drama every so often. Another downside to Discord is is that you really have to already know people to get into servers and I would say there’s bound to be drama and stuff in servers so that’s unfortunately something you can count on happening at some point.

Facebook: I honestly don’t like Facebook in general, but I also really don’t like the Facebook side of the fandom. A lot of people are always so rude and awful on the official SWD page and tbh it’s really soured my opinion of the Facebook side of the WH fandom to the point I don’t want to engage with any of them. I know there’s otome groups you can join on Facebook, however I’ve not joined any of them and Facebook seems like a hella public site where people can easily snoop into you and your life. So I’m not a huge fan of it, but I do have friends who are in otome groups on Facebook and I guess it’s fine since they haven’t left? I don’t know.

Reddit: This is by far my least favorite site. So the pros first bc I have a lot of cons. Certain games can have their own subreddits and it can feel like a more streamlined experience as opposed to tumblr. Now for cons:

If your fave game doesn’t have a subreddit, you either have to start your own or go to the generic otome subreddit

It honestly has the feel of “we’re in a less friendly discord/skype group for a certain game, but everything we say is public record and not private at ALL”

People on Reddit can be a little crazy sometimes.

I’m going to be 100% honest, although I’m subscribed to the otome subreddit, I really only use Reddit to keep up with influencer, make up brand, and make up guru drama so I can consume makeup as ethically as possible and stay informed about content creators bc following all of those make up peeps on twitter and insta is unnecessary and would be exhausting.

Twitter: Again, I’m not super into the otome scene on Twitter, but I think it’s so-so. Twitter isn’t a great site for writers but great for artists so there’s that. It’s also a SUPER PUBLIC SITE like. Again, if I said something like not even that racy like “I wanna bone Hugo Peers” everyone on tumblr would be like “yeah mood he’s pretty” but if I said that on Twitter I feel like loads of people would just come and kill me On Sight. Not to mention as a queer person, I’m really uncomfortable with Twitter for a lot of reasons that I’m not going to get into. Overall, I feel like Twitter’s good for artists and short shitposters, but that’s really it.

I can’t speak for other sites like Insta, Tik Tok, and Byte. I’m basically only in cosplay, drag instagram, and love live dance cover insta so I don’t know any otome accounts. Tik Tok is a horrible, horrible app and I think their attempts to silence people who are queer, dark-skinned, fat and/or don’t fit into the very narrow beauty “standard” is fucking disgusting and I refuse to use the app. Byte is a lot better of a video app however I don’t really use it bc I only knew one person on the app and she’s dead now so I just. Haven’t really used it but Byte is lightyears ahead of Tik Tok in my opinion.

[spins random number gen] can I get 25, 62, 126, and 135 pls?? ty ilyyyyyy <3

25: Favorite star?: I don’t have a favorite single star BUT my favorite constellations are Lyra, Pyxis, and the Ursas!

62: What makes you follow a blog?: Good content or a friend! I follow a lot of artists but I’ll only follow if they have mostly things I’m into, and a lot of friends of mine!

126: Something you hate about Tumblr: It’s a lovehate thing but the fact that there aren’t as many people is sometimes real sad to me, actually? On one hand, most of the terrible drama starting assholes left to Twitter, on the other hand the roleplay communities on here are pretty much dead!

Which is sad because Tumblr’s format makes for a really excellent roleplay experience, in my opinion. The (somewhat) ease of interactions and the ability to reblog whatever you want aesthetic-wise made it one of the best places for roleplay communities :’)

135: Do you get motion sickness or seasickness?: I only get slight motion sickness if I don’t look out the window when in the car! As for seasickness, I have no idea. You’d have to pay me a whole lotta money to get me to go out onto the ocean.

Ask me some shit.

to my followers! (pls read)

idk how to go about this but i know this blog has been mia for a while now. a lot has changed the past year especially since i’m a nursing major now and my personal life has gotten me very distracted and busy to be making gifs or enjoying tumblr. i miss being on here talking to my mutuals, making gifs which was so much fun and just mostly being part of the fandom. don’t get me wrong i still love bts to death!! and i did had a chance to get to see them again at their last tour and still a die hard fangirl. i’m just not to invested in the fandom on here and making content. idk if this blog will continue being active, i visit here and there just to see how it is or how everyone is doing but i also don’t think i can have the heart to delete this blog bc it’s so special to me and i made special friends on here as well. i saw some mutuals who still happen to follow me and thank you for sticking to this dead blog lol it means a lot!! <3 and to those that unfollowed i understand! i am mostly on twitter now and fangirl on there so if you’d like you can follow me @ilsanboi :’) and if were mutuals on here just let me know and i’d love to reconnect w you again! <3 thank you so much to all for giving this blog and my gifs a lot of love!! <333

#i'm sorry i just suck at keeping this account updated

we met on ocean avenue pt 4

A/N: October fic! This chapter was giving me so much trouble especially the ending. @piper-mc-meme this AU is driving me crazy.

Piper @PiperMcMeme posted a tweet: I'm walking towards him rn. My heart is pounding! OMG!

Sam32_blondesuperman: OMG? What's going on? Tell me the tea?

Alicia37: Someone on Tumblr dared @PiperMcMeme to ask Jason Grace aka @BlondeSuperman out.

Sam32_blondesuperman: Holy shit! Get it girl!

Hazel @HazelArts posted a video: @PiperMcMeme Do it for the vine! #McMemeDare #BlondSuperMan #HESAIDYES?! #IKnowVineIsDead #lameJokes

Jones_Star: Holy Crap?!

leafy: What the heck?

eightMarky: Has to be a publicity stunt, right? #HuntingtonHospital

jack_of_some_trades: Isn't he dating QueenRey? She's all over his instagram

PiFi: AWWW! They're so cute together. I ship it. #Jasiper #ShipName#IShipIt

QueenBee: Nah. BlondSuperMan and QueenRey are much better together. They're so hot!

Reyna squinted at her bright screen of her phone, not quite awake yet as she scroll through her Twitter feed. Her notifications were pinging wildly since yesterday afternoon. She immediately muted them to focus on her video edits for her next volleyball video. Reyna wasn't sure when she fell asleep last night. Her laptop sat dead on her floor, thankfully all her work backed up to the cloud.

Reyna pushed her loose hair out of her face as she sat up, crossing her legs underneath her. The said video wasn't clear but she could make out Jason's tall form beside the railing as a nervous petite girl approached him. Her hands fiddled in front of her. The audio was rough with children screaming and loud splashes from the pool.

"Hey, you look new here." Reyna could hear her say. Jason smiled kindly as he inched over, giving her space beside him.

"That obvious?" Jason laughed, lifting his sunglasses. They traded introductions and chatted for a bit. Piper pointed out people with colorful commentary, getting a few chuckles from Jason. He leaned his arms against the railing, waving to someone. Reyna's eyes narrowed as Piper took a deep breath.

"Will you go out with me?" She half-shouted with her eyes closed. Jason nodded his head but before he could say anything, a young man appeared by his side, pulling Jason away.

"Fucking internet." Reyna murmured as she scrolled through the comments and retweets. She was tagged in a good number of reactions. Probably because Jason's latest tweet was of them at Santa Monica beach with Thor. Her phone vibrated signaling a FaceTime call. She arched her eyebrow at the caller id before tapping the green button. "You're an idiot." Reyna greeted plainly as Jason's exhausted face blinked onto the black screen. He groaned, burying his face into his pillow.

"I thought I would get sympathy from you." Jason replied as he lifted his head, pouting at her. His bed hair was a perfect balance between sexy and cute. A dark stubble curved around his masculine chin. Jason shifted to his elbows, unintentionally giving Reyna an eyeful. Her eyes widen before she quickly turned to look at her wall, blush creeping onto her face. Fact: Jason Grace sleeps shirtless. Even from a brief view and tiny screen, she could make out the defined lines of his pecs and abs.

"Sorry," Reyna said, trying to hide her breathlessness. "Here, call again and I'll be nice." She stood up, grabbing a loose cardigan from her chair as she left her room. Hylla sat at the kitchen island, stirring her coffee as she held out her required reading. She nodded to her sister as Reyna plucked a stem of grapes from the fruit bowl. "I promise." Hylla narrowed her gaze at her sister's odd comment.

"No you won't." Jason's voice bounced off the high ceilings of the kitchen. Hylla blinked, definitely not recognizing the voice. 'Who's that?' she mouthed as Reyna head towards the balcony. "You'll still sass me. You're worse than Percy."

"Am not." Reyna countered as she pressed the phone against her chest. 'No one.' she mouthed back before stepping out on the balcony. Reyna settled on their lounging beach chair before pulling Jason back out. "Now, what's your side of the story?"

Jason dragged his hand over his face before flipping over to lay on his bed. For a moment, the world spun showing Reyna a quick glimpse of Jason's hotel room before it filled with his handsome face. "I don't know. One moment we were just talking as she pointed out various people of the cast. Someone called my name and I turned. Piper asked a question and I nodded yes to show I was still listening. Before I could process what exactly she asked, someone pulled me away. She blindsided me."

"And got it all on video." Jason stared at Reyna like she grew another head. "It's a perfect social media storm. The daughter of Huntington Hospital main star asked out current teenage heartthrob and got it all on video." Reyna refrained from mentioning how her timeline was flooded with retweets of the video and people at-ing her with outrageous comments to get any reaction. She wasn't going to feed their curiosity. "Don't look at Twitter. It's a bloodbath."

"Of course it is." Jason groaned. "Excuse me for a second." He placed the phone down, giving Reyna a view of the ceiling. A muffled scream echoed through the speaker followed by excited barking from Thor. The camera shook as the dog jumped onto the bed. Reyna laughed as she could see Thor's long tail wag back and forth. "Thor, not now!" Jason laughed as he wrapped his arm around the dog and reappeared into view. "Having a crisis."

"Dogs don't care." Reyna replied as she leaned back. "Have you ate yet, Jason?" He hugged Thor to his side as he thought. Thor eagerly licked the side of Jason's face who smiled in response. Her heart warmed at the sight. Thor can easily shift his owner's mood. "Are you free today?"

"Kind of." Jason answered as he rested his head against Thor's body. "Just for the morning. I have a table reading after lunch, a meeting with my stylist, a few headshots and then I need to sign the lease for my apartment." Jason ran his hand over Thor's furry bottom. "I also need someone to watch his monster. I haven't found a doggie daycare yet. Reyna?"

"Aurum and Argentum are already suspicious of me from last time." Reyna commented as she looked towards the kitchen. Her two graceful greyhounds slept on their large doggie bed. Like Aurum could sense her, the beautiful dog lift his head and wagged his long tail. Jason held Thor up to the camera as he panted adorably. "Fine, I'll keep an eye on him later. He'll be exhausted running with our dogs."

"Thank you. Thank you so much, Rey." Jason said as she shook her head fondly.

"You owe me breakfast." Reyna ordered as she looked up the address. "Here's the breakfast spot. Meet me there in thirty. Put on your best 'I'm not a teenage heartthrob' outfit please. They have amazing blueberry pancakes, Percy can vouch for that. And they're dog friendly."

"Yes madam. See ya." Jason's image quickly disappeared leaving Reyna alone with her thoughts. She stared at the black screen before pressing the phone against her chest.

Jason is a mess. In reality, he's nothing like the suave characters directors often casted him as. He doesn't have a typical teenager experience, constantly moving around for work. Growing up in the spotlight, Jason played different parts. Reyna often wondered if he knew the difference between himself and the characters he played. Her frown deepened. The video was getting too much attention way too quickly.

Reyna clicked her phone on, pulling up the chat she had with Annabeth. Keep an eye out for him, Rey. "I'm trying." Reyna murmured before heading towards the kitchen.

"That wasn't Frank's voice." Hylla greeted curtly. Reyna sighed, glancing up at the ceiling.

"No it wasn't. I have other friends, you know." Reyna commented as she hopped on the stool beside her. Hylla looked exhausted juggling grad night courses and her coaching job at the nearby high school. After getting her undergrad in psychology, Hylla returned to study sports medicine to help her student athletic better. She reached out, brushing a bit of Reyna's hair out of her face. "He's having a crisis."

"Ah youth. I thought it was Frank by the way you smiled." Reyna touched her cheeks like she could feel the smile. What does Hylla even mean by that? "You only smile that widely after talking to Frank." Reyna's eyes furrowed in confusion. What does that mean? Her phone vibrated in her pocket.

Jason: Might be a bit late. Get me a stack of pancakes and bacon pls.

"There it is again." Hylla pointed Reyna's side.

"I… it…" Reyna stuttered, trying to get her thoughts together. "I don't have time for you to psychoanalyze me!" Reyna shouted as she ran to her room. Hylla's laughter rang as Reyna slammed the door, pressing her back against it. Her heart pounded at the implications.

"No, no time." Reyna murmured as she moved to her closet. Her fingers touched the soft fabric of a cute and flattering sundress. She pulled her hand away like it burned. It was just a dress though. It wouldn't mean anything. "Damn it, Hylla. What are you doing pulling ideas in my head?"

"Something casual but nice." Reyna reasoned as she shoved the dress aside, pulling out a red long flannel shirt. Her face flushed at the memory of their first meeting. She only wore her sports bra and short shorts, fresh from practice. She pulled a pair of white jean shorts and a plain black tee. She could pair it with a few bracelets or necklace if Reyna felt like it.

"You look cute." Hylla commented as Reyna walked out, gathering her hair over her shoulder. Reyna narrowed her gaze. She didn't need to know that. "What? It's a cute outfit. Trying to impress someone?"

"You're evil." Reyna murmured as she grabbed her keys. "And you're enjoying this. I do not need this right now. Heading to Sophie's."

"Get me an order of blueberry pancakes!" Hylla shouted as Reyna shut the door behind her.

Reyna twirled her order number in her hand as she scooped out a spot on the beach. Sophie's set up was more like a snack shack instead of a diner. A single counter took orders, pumping out delicious breakfast food and much needed coffee. The aroma of sweet syrup, freshly cut fruit and pancake batter mixed with the salty sea air. Seagulls hovered around, well aware there's food here. Reyna found a spot beside the sand, kicking her converses off, and buried her toes in the warm sand. As long as Reyna could remember, she always loved the beach. She couldn't imagine living without it.

"Wow," Reyna heard a soft whisper behind her. Jason stood there, gazing towards were the deep blue of the water and clear sky met. He waved at her as he approached. "Do you approve of my outfit?" He asked cheekily as he held his arms out and did a small turn. The pair of dark washed jeans hugged his legs nicely. He wore them with leather flip flops like a casual weekender. The athletic tank top revealed his pale arms. Thor tugged at his leash, trying to greet Reyna.

"I'm sure your fashion guru will have a few choice words for you." Reyna commented as he sat down. Jason rolled his eyes, running his fingers through his blond hair. Thor wandered over to her, wagging his long tail as he pressed his furry face against her leg. Thor barked eagerly as he leaned into her touch. "Thor is as cute as always."

"Nothing can faze him, thankfully." Jason murmured as he check his phone once more before tucking it away. "I've muted Twitter, turn off DM on Instagram and silenced my phone except for certain numbers. My manager has been blowing it up with text messages."

"Is it wise to ignore him?" Reyna asked as she tucked a bit of her hair over her shoulder. Jason shrugged. He looked really young right now like how he truly is, not an actor on the big screen, but a confused young man. Perfectly timed, the server appeared with two plates and cups of fresh coffee. Jason's face lit up at the sight of pancakes. "I got you a Julian Ramirez special. Blueberry pancakes with a side of bacon, sweet maple syrup and butter."

"Sweet and savory, something he and I can agree on." Jason murmured, grabbing his utensils eagerly. Reyna handed Thor a dog treat which he eagerly gobbled down and settled at the base of their feet.

"Not going to snap a pic?" Reyna asked as she added some sugar into her coffee. Jason shook his head.

"Nah, this is me time." Jason replied before looking up. "Well you and me time. Social media doesn't need to follow my every waking moment." Reyna blinked at the surprisingly sweet comment he delivered so smoothly. "Oh man, this is so good." Jason exclaimed as he dug into the pancakes, gushing over the fluffiness of the pancakes with the sweet blueberries and salty bacon. It still blows her mind how he's actually here in front of her, in the flesh, not just an image on the screen. How she can just ask him if he would like to hang out and they can, like real friends.

"Well, are you going to ask?" Reyna blinked at Jason's sudden question. They just finished their food, watching the passing people as they finished their coffee. A bit of syrup stuck to Jason's chin as he wiped his hands.

"I was going to let you digest before asking the hard hitting questions." Reyna teased as she handed him a napkin. He took it sheepishly, wiping his chin. Reyna coaxed Thor towards her, picking the puppy up so he sat comfortably in her lap.

"How very kind of you." Jason said as he stirred his own drink. "Shoot."

"What do you think of Piper, honestly?" Reyna asked, running her fingers over Thor's fur. Jason sipped his drink, looking out at the ocean.

"Honestly?" Jason echoed as he turned back. Reyna nodded her head. "She's bold. I don't have the guts to ask anyone out or at least someone I've just met. She's charming, already cracking jokes about people and laughing with me like we're old friends. There's an openness about her that I envy, that I wished I had. She can come off as strong especially if the only thing you know about her is what's going on Twitter and social media. I don't think she's a bad person."

"She sounds pretty great." Reyna whispered as she hugged Thor. "Just got swept up and hunt down by the social media hounds." Jason nodded his head, agreeing. It was the age they live in. Putting yourself out there is easy but scary. People can praise and attack you with just a Twitter account. Reyna has received a few cruel comments over time.

"She a good girl and I don't want to hurt her." Jason sighed as he rested his elbows on the table, cradling his face. "I feel like we can be great friends because god knows I need more friends. But what do I say? Has anyone ever asked you out?" Reyna's heart pound as she met Jason's gaze. Jason is a very attractive young man. Any girl would be affected especially if he looked at her like she held the answer to everything.

"Once." She whispered, her mouth suddenly dry. Like it could sense the tension, Reyna's phone vibrated beside her, shaking the table. The screen lit up with a text message from Hylla. Instinctively, Reyna and Jason both looked down at the device. Reyna swiped the message away, leaving her lock screen. Her expression softened as she looked at the picture.

It's a selfie of her and a young man bundled in warm winter clothing. They were at an outdoor ice rink with twinkling glow of the lamps. The man was of Asian descent with clean dark hair and a boyish smile. His arms wrapped around Reyna's shoulders as they both smiled at the camera. Snow dotted their dark hair but Reyna could feel the warmth and love from the photo.

"Who's that?" Jason whispered, pulling Reyna back to him. An endearing smile curled on her lips as she picked up the device.

"My boyfriend."
