#idk there might be more sibling relationships that I'm forgetting about

[eldritchdreamss]

I have a thought about Reverse Robins au

Basically I saw something about how Reverse Robins is just Robins with their names changed, so Damian has Dick's personality, Tim has Jason's and so on. Something else I'd like to point out is that most of the time they still all had used the name Robin which...I don't think they would have? If I remember correctly (Which I might not be so please correct me if I'm wrong), Robin was originally used because it was a nickname that Dick's mother had used for him which is one of the reasons why Dick gets so pissed at Bruce in one of their fights about Jason taking over the mantle.

With that being said I think that tension about being replaced wouldn't be as prevalent as it is in these fics, at least not in the sense of "Robin" but as siblings. I realize "replaced" isn't the right way to describe this in more of a sibling dynamic, what mean is when siblings get jealous of each other(typically of the younger siblings) when the attention of the parent/s moves off them, if that makes any sense.

Something else the post I saw pointed out was that we never see Steph, Duke, or Cass in these fics and like...why don't we??? It's almost like they don't exist at all, or maybe people are just forgetting about them because they're "not Robins"(even though Steph was Robin at one point but I won't get into that here).

One thing that I'd like to put out there; why is it just the robins/batfam being reversed? I'd love to see the other teams being reversed as well, superman, flash and arrow for example. Idk, I just think it'd be interesting if we branched out a bit to other families/teams with this same concept. I will say it is interesting to see Reversed Robins interacting with each others teams in the fics that branch out to it.

I guess that's one of my main things though, similar to the post I saw(which unfortunately I'm unable to find again) is that it's just the Robins..with their names being switched but keeping the personalities of the original order. I would love to see the dynamic change with the actual characters changing. Yes, Damian becomes the oldest and Dick becomes the youngest, but they're still Dick and Damian; two completely different characters with their own issues that wouldn't change to be like the other just because the order of their ages have changed. The same goes for Jason and Tim.

Idk, I just think that there are so many things that could be done in this au that isn't being taken advantage of. If they wouldn't be called Robin what would their names be, and if the order they're taken in by Bruce and their ages changed how would that affect their dynamic and their stories? Would their stories be changed drastically or would they stay relatively the same with only a few minor changes for it to make sense? Obviously there are parts that are integral to their character that can't/shouldn't be changed without changing the character too much, how would people work around that? How would their relationships with the people around them change, even if they're the only ones who's ages are being switch around or not? Again, there are so many things that could be done to make it more interesting in my opinion.

All this to say, I do love the Reverse Robins Au, I just wish people would take a little more creative liberty with it. I also would like to know other peoples thoughts on this as well.

Conversations that team prime have probably said (+ rescuebots)(part 2)

Every optimus ever: why is my exe here and why are they committing war crimes?

Tfp arcee: there are not enough fucks for me to give out.

Tfp bumblebee: not that you ever had any left to begin with.

Tfp arcee: True

Tfp wheeljack: Don't worry! We all need therapy!

Rb Blades: Is that supposed to calm me?

Rb Hightide: Hatchet.

Tfp ratchet: Scrap eater.

Tfp Optimus: *regretting his choices* Enough.

Tfp Knockout: THAT'S A THREAT!

Tfp Wheeljack: NO IT'S NOT! it's a promise!

Rb Quickshadow: You seem the most sane.

Tfp arcee: Barely.

Rb Heatwave: Why did I want to be leader again?

Rb blurr: Optimus saw you and thought " You're leader shaped."

Rb Heatwave:*snort* Leader shaped?

Rb blurr: *shrug* Idk, he did the same thing to Bee.

Knockout, arcee and bee are on patrol:

Tfp knockout: So, you and Blades?

Tfp Bumblebee: We're just FRIENDS.

Tfp arcee: keep telling yourself that.

Rb Boulder: I think bots forget I was a scientist.

Tfp Wheeljack: they forget I was too. Where do they think I got the grenades?

Rb Boulder: probably thought you stole them off a decepticon.

Tfp Bulkhead: that does sound like something you would do. Pits, I think you have.

Rb Heatwave: I...have never wanted to hit a bot more.

Rb Chase: it is a wonder how you've never been imprisoned for anything.

Rba wedge: Scrap it's crowded.

Tfp Ultra magnus: there's a room in the back that Optimus uses. It's completely silent

Rba wedge: thanks, how do you know that?

Tfp wheeljack: Magnus is good at finding hiding spots. he is so introverted that he would rather not be able to get out of somewhere, than talk to a bot.

Tfp Ratchet: Medix is a lot nicer than me, I'm not sure where he got it from.

Tfp knockout: thank primus.

Rb Hightide: Hatchet! Who's your sibling?

Tfp Ratchet: None.of.your.business!

Rba Medix: You REALLY don't want to know. I wish I didn't.

Tfp knockout:*snorts* Primus, you're definitely Ratchet's.

Tfp Ratchet: you picked good leaders.

Tfp Optimus: Heatwave just told me he wanted to ship Hightide to a lab to see where he got his audacity from, Wedge made a 'timeout box' specifically for Hotshot, and Bumblebee is in denial about being in a relationship with Blades.

Okay, part three might be out soon (idk). I'm going to get a coffee and pretend I'm not going to college in a couple weeks.

[wandaxpietro]

another ask because this is the only way I know how to contribute to the Maxicest/ScarletSilver fandom (wish i could do more but college is p a i n )

but imagine if Pietro and Wanda just came out and told everyone they're dating/in love (whether as a joke or if they're being serious or idk) I am willing to bet a majority of their friends/coworkers/acquaintances/enemies would either be like: "we knew lol" or "you haven't already???" or be supportive or neutral to their relationship.

But I'm wondering... how would Magneto react? How would Lorna react? How would Magda/Marya/Natalya and Django react? (if they were alive to see it) How would Vision or Crystal react?

Hell, how would Billy and Tommy react? And Luna too? (marvel pls bring her back :((( plsss)

i feel like in the current SW&QS comic run, there will probably be some in-universe comment/rumors that since are Pietro and Wanda are together again, that they are together.

(might ask more questions/thoughts/random blurbs later ://)

ah i think you're more charitable than i am... i don't think most people who know them would be okay with it. they all probably know to varying degrees -- especially their close friends -- it's the deniability that saves it for them, that makes them able to ignore all of it. the avengers (the ones that are close to them, that is) all know, all have seen the twins in weird situations, but they've gotten very very good at looking away. none of them want to know. i think they'd be highly uncomfortable if they came out with their relationship officially, because that'd mean they can no longer ignore it, y'know? i don't think most would start a fight about it or a confrontation or anything, but they'd get weird around the twins.

(on a side note, i think clint is one of the people who'd get actually angry for a while lol. that moment when you're bisexual and your two crushes are dating etc etc. also i think carol would ask wanda if she's alright, if pietro's forcing her into anything, which would make wanda really mad. janet i think is smart enough that she's realized for a long time they're in love & knows something like that isn't going on but she wouldn't be very comfortable, either. the one i think who's most likely to "accept" it is actually tony bcuz i think he genuinely wouldn't give a fuck lol)

that aside! now for the ones you actually asked about lol. ah it's difficult.

magneto - depends on when he'd find out. during brotherhood times, i don't think he'd care, because he didn't really care about them to begin with. once he finds out they're related, at the very beginning, i think he'd be appalled but there isn't anything he can do about it, since he's an absent father trying to reconnect and has no rights to his children. once they're in the family dance for a while, he's grown a bit demanding, esp towards pietro, if that makes sense? so i think he'd probably argue with them about it lol. i don't think he'd like it, not so much bcuz of personal disgust, but mostly bcuz of optics. but also bcuz he has a desire for his children to live normal, happy lives (as much as he has trouble showing them that normally lol) and i think he'd think that would interfere with that. he's also very good at ignoring it, however -- before he'd officially find out, ofc, but after, too. he just conveniently "forgets" it. maybe starts introducing both of them to other people. they hate it.

lorna - i think lorna knows. i think she's known for a long time and while she was disgusted by it at first (and also strangely jealous; she doesn't want either of them but they've always been so close and she never had that. she doesn't have a sibling that's primarily hers, if that makes sense) i think she came to terms with it over time, enough so that she'd be pretty alright with it if they went official.

i honestly don't know about magda, django, marya and natalya... i think magda would have a lot of compassion after everything they've been through, but would treat it as an unfortunate side-effect of all of the twins' trauma, if that makes sense? she loves them a lot, though. the rest of them i don't know. i can't see any of them liking it, but marya and django might just be happy they're both alive and happy, you know? i feel like natalya would want more for them, similarly to magneto, bcuz she doesn't quite get it. but no one does. so yknow.

so billy and tommy are their kids. we know this. i think tommy wouldn't care, tbh. i can't see him being fazed or disgusted by it, also i think he'd be happy to find out pietro is his dad. they already get along, and he doesn't have a lot of people who care about him, and who want to spend time with him (vision never did lol). idk about billy..... i think he dearly loves them both but i think he might just think wanda could do better (lol). i think he'd be vaguely uncomfortable, but pietro would never play dad if billy didn't want that, so i think they're fine-ish? he'd probably get used to it eventually even when he's not thrilled. idk if he'd ever see pietro as his dad. also i think he's also known for a long time but he hasn't gotten over it like lorna has.

as for luna....... honestly she's genuinely a weird kid. she can see people's emotions & i can't see her caring much about "human" taboos. she's from a royal family, and her aunt's husband is also her aunt's (distant) cousin. i think she'd be fine, lol. she can see the love between wanda & pietro -- and tho she probably didn't realize (or didn't want to; bcuz that'd make things complicated) that it was romantic, too, she'd be relatively fine, just happy that her father's happy. she's long since been over crystal and pietro's marriage, so that doesn't bother her, either.

[appleblocks]

My good friend Fantom made me realize that like,,, yall probably have no idea what is going on in my au at all

And I apologize for that! I get so involved in my own mind that I forget to actually make informational posts

So below I'm writing some info about my au and the characters in them!! :D Focusing on the 'main cast' which are the protags of my fic Fresh Life!

and also I will touch upon the recent shiping ive been doing of the characters

As for my other au, it kinda stems from that first one, but it is a Next Generation AU. I'm currently writing a fic for it, and the premise of the au as a whole is quite simple: the (mostly) cannonical kids of the hermits and lifers grown up and having their own adventures! <3 I'm a sucker for Next Gen aus, and this adoration started back in my MLP days lmao The au follows Hermes (Empires 2), Tiny Tom (Empires 2), Grumbot (HC 7), Jrumbot (HC7), and Jeremy Jr. (SOS smp) in their lives as young adults, exploring their friendships and their familial relationships, and my fic Fresh Life (name derived from the term Fresh Meat) follows them experiencing their first Life Series together, with the return of the Boogeyman and a new Canary :3 I'm currently writing Chapter 1 and I'm writing it in 'Sessions', so each chapter will be the span of 1 mc session, roughly. I have multiple tags for this but the main ones are #next gen au and #project fresh life!

Description from a previous ask ^^^

This au and fic (and future Empires based fic) follows the many fictional kids of the lifers, hermits, and emperors of the MCYT sphere I watch and fin entertaining, but I've adapted them so much to what I wanted that they very much like ocs to me ;w; but it feels weird to make them fully ocs because of how connected to the original world and characters they are in my mind and it makes me really sad to let go of all that to make them ocs of some kind.

I didn't inicially intend to ship any of them, cause I thought people would think I'm weird, and some probably do think that. But I'm doing it in the sense of character exploration, and imagining how they would act and feel in deeper connections and relationships (non romantic term)

Hermes and Grumbot to me are genuinely good friends, even best friends. Of course Hermes and Tom also are best friends, but that stems from the fact that they're siblings through Joel.

Hermes and Grumbot, to me, have a lot more possibility for a deeper connection than Jrumbot and Tom, because honestly Jrumbot and Tom know each other more because their brothers are friends than anything else, and so I started gravitating towards Hermes and Grumbot's friendship and relationship a lot more.

They are all friends and hang out whenever, along with the other characters that I haven't posted much about yet like Hillary, Jonn, Mandy Mane, etc. (but I will post about those more eventually)

They all care very much about each other, but to me Grumbot and Hermes in this AU are a lot closer than others. Hermes doesn't expect anything from Grumbot in the way that others might, so Grumbot is able to feel a lot less stress and relax a lot more around him. ( <- this is derived from the fact he was made with a purpose and then stored away when his efforts failed ) And Grumbot is very protective, in his own way, even if he's mean and murdery in the Life Series context he could and would drop everything to protect Hermes and the people he cares about.

I'm mostly just defending my character exploration now but yeah TwT it's late and idk what to do but I wanted to maybe clear some things up and provide some more insight into things

Also, for those that remember me saying Grumbot is aroace, that still applies!!!! I'm very much putting my own experience of aroaceness onto him and his deeper connection with Hermes does not negate that! I'm in a relationship too rn and I still identify as aroace, it's a spectrum, so i hope thats okay ;w;

[fishfingersandjellybabies]

Hi! I saw you wanted some JonDami idea sooo:

• First time they hold hands

• First time Damian felt safe enough to fall asleep on Jon

• Discussing baby name when still in high school (which I did lmao)

• Seeking help from their siblings on how to ask the other in a date

• Eloping right out of high school to get married because they're idiots in love

• First kiss!! How did I forget that!!

• During patrol while high on adrenaline or maybe they were at the farm relaxing under the sunset or after playing video games and laughing with each other!

• One of my soft favourite to picture: leaning on each other, forehead against forehead or cheek against cheek, just existing and feeling the other's warmth

I have ton of other ideas and some hc but I think it's enough rn lol

Thx u byye!!

LET'S DO IT. (assume all ages are 16+ I guess, idk does it matter?)

First time they hold hands: pre-romance. Jon's powers shorted out and he fell outta the sky. Damian caught him by his hand just in time, and when he pulled him to safety he just...didn't let go. Jon noticed but didn't say a WORD.

First Time Damian fell asleep on him: Probably right after the relationship started/became official. They'd both had a rough hero week and Damian had been on edge just, forever. So they sit against a wall in the cave and one second they're sitting there in silence and the next, Damian's dropping against his shoulder already konked out. Jon panics for half a second but then Dick sees them and says 'He only sleeps when he feels safe.' and those words shake Jon to his core.

Baby names: This is all Jon. Jon just starts rambling about it one day. "How would we honor both our cultures? Or do we at all? Do we go with an -El name, or a name from your mom's side or just call him Bob?" Damian is endeared for a while but quickly gets so fucking annoyed because every name is more ridiculous than the last.

Siblings help: Jon obviously asks Kon and Kon is SO. JACKED. TO. HELP. He hesitates a little when he finds out it's Damian but, honestly, the kid is at least alright. Damian, much to the Kents surprise, does NOT ask Dick or even Tim. He consults Cass first, who asks Steph to standby as she gives her advice, and Jason, for reasons mentioned in previous asks in that he's a sucker for a classic romance novel so, clearly, he is An Expert.

Eloping: Honestly? Yes. And it happens at the same time one of them (I'm thinking Jon) says I love you for the first time. The other reciprocates (Damian) and one of them (Jon) sarcastically says 'really? well damn let's just go get married right now.' and Damian just goes. "Okay." and.......................they do. Maya officiates, Kathy is the witness, and the only family in attendance is the pets. (Goliath is flower girl)

First kiss: First kiss is at a Wayne Holiday gala/Justice League xmas party not long after they started dating and the end up under mistletoe. They do the hesitant peck thing first but then oh boy they like it and mmmmmm Clark and Bruce might have to rethink allowing sleepovers anymore.

Chillin': Jon gets so entranced when Damian laughs he literally just stops functioning. He will stop and stare and was even caught drooling a little bit once. (by Jason, no less.) If he's with Damian/it's just them, if Damian's laughing, he'll start laughing and just pull Damian as close as he can and they just keep laughing together.

SOFT FOREHEADS: There's some world-ending situation and they've been separated for most, if not all, of it. The day is saved and they're finally reunited on a rooftop somewhere. And they run desperately at each other but when they reach, they know the whole League is watching them and Damian's not big on PDA (and tbh neither is Jon, if only for protective reasons) so they just grab each other's hands and stare deep into each other's eyes until one of them well up with tears and closes his eyes and they just ~gentle forehead touch~

[rustyvanburace]

you know I gotta suggest Navarre for the character ask! and asahi if you’re feeling up to it :^D

Thank you so much!

favorite thing about them: I love how much PIZZAZ he adds to the early game! How can I not like a character with such a flamboyant, demanding personality whose very presence is enough to make everyone react with shock, contempt, laughter, and awe? Navarre is an ass, but a necessary ass to carry the early narrative and add so much excitement to it. I cannot help but giggle to myself everytime he appears. AND THEN, all that character growth in IVA towards becoming a better, more self-aware ghostie. Ohhh I love he so muuuch~

least favorite thing about them: Definitely the unnecessary perversion in IVA. Enough said.

favorite line: The "dawdling Casualries" line will always hold a special place in my heart, but I am also really fond of the stuff he says when you speak with him during the training drills in one of the rest spots,

"O-Oh, it's you… I thought you to be a demon. Don't start me so… I've never carried a blade any heavier than a knife before. If Mother were to see me dashing about with such a weapon in hand, I think that she would faint…"

And

"I landed a critical blow when I accidentally tripped… The next quest was much simpler, since as you might expect, money is no object to me. 'Twas actually easier than the first. But the final challenge all depends on one's strength, and that's a field I'm particularly lacking in… S-Someone else may have first place, I care not whom. Merely let this debacle of a training exercise be done with!"

brOTP: Nanashi and Navarre are best BROS!

Bad edit aside, can't forget the actual bros, Navarre and Gaston lmao. I really enjoyed their sibling relationship and it opened up so much insight into their familial life and personal struggles. I'm so so happy they got to rekindle at the enddd, it was so sweet

OTP: Everyone knows that I am the sole resident of the Issachar x Navarre Crack Ship Kingdom!! Idgaf that they've never canonically met nor even know of each other's existence, the POTENTIAL between them is enough to keep me content and well fed! We support random rarepairs in this house!

I also really like Flynn x Navarre too and they're my second fave Navarre ship, for much the same reasons!

nOTP: Needless to say, my NOtps would be pairing Navarre with his brother or any of the IVA kids. Eeeugh. Enough said.

random headcanon: It's something I've been wanting to analyze in more depth, and IDK how much of this is actually canon or headcanon considering, but I very much fancy the idea of Navarre always having close connections with the Samurai seniors and keeping close tabs on the Rite and new inductions. He's very astute with the going-ons in Samurai business and likely has been anxiously watching them for quite some time.

unpopular opinion: I understand that Navarre is a very unlikeable character, and he's supposed to be! But it honestly does get really bothersome seeing how much dismissal, if not outright hate, he gets in the fandom. Navarre IS an important character within the early game! It is his very antics that adds the necessary tension and tone needed to carry the early narrative and worldbuilding. It does admittedly make it hard for me to approach other SMTIV fans because I like this bean so much.

But that is okay. I am perfectly content with those who seek out, stick by, and enjoy my bean musings. :)

song i associate with them: Tbh I'm pretty bad at that sort of question, lol. I don't really have one for him right now, so pass? (Open to suggestions though! I want more tunes to listen to.)

favorite picture of them: SO MANY panels of him from the Prayers manga FOR REAL. He's SO expressive in that and has TONS of good moments!! But I am especially fond of the mini bonus chapter that features Navarre~

Masataka Miura can agree: Navarre can have a little moment in the spotlight as a treat~

Thank you again so much for the ask! I think I've written quite at length here, lmao. I'm a bit tired now and I don't think I can fit Asahi here, but I could post hers later on!

[beacon-of-chaos]

Since Quetza is in the @sonic-oc-showdown, I figured I'd fill out one of these questionnaires I've seen around. I apologise, I'm not sure who came up with it, but I first saw it on @bunnymajo's page.

FYI: Some of this stuff I am coming up with on the fly!

Name: Quetza the Snake

Species: Winged Snake. No particular type of snake in mind.

Type: Flight

Alignment: Chaotic Good

Home: Station Square?

Quetza claims to be either the reincarnation, descendant, or chosen one of the ancient god Quetzacoatl. The answer differs each time you ask her, but it's hard to deny. She's a snake born with wings and she has magical abilities, specifically control over wind and air, and shapeshifting, which is why she has four arms. She travels the world, looking for clues about her true nature. She has an easy going nature and can be shy, but opens up quickly to those are friendly to her. She loves fashion, junk food, and video games. She doesn't like to fight, but can defend herself if she needs to, using gusts of wind to fly around and using her shapeshifting to extend her arms or tail for quick strikes.

✨How did you come up with the OC’s name?

She's inspired by the Aztec god Quetzalcoatl, the winged serpent god. Quetzalcoatl means "precious serpent" in the Nahuatl language, so her name could roughly be translated as Precious the Snake!

Note: It's pronounced KET-zah. :)

🌼  - How old are they? (Or approximate age range)

She's an adult. Late 20s, I guess?

🌺- Do they have any love interest(s)?

No. She gains crushes easily, and forgets them almost as quickly.

🍕  - What is their favorite food?

Ice cream! She has a real sweet tooth.

💼  - What do they do for a living?

Uh... I haven't thought that far yet.

So, at this point I need to explain. Quetza is literally just my fursona; wish fufilment in all its forms XD. She doesn't have a story, per se.

So I could give her a boring office job like mine. Or maybe say that she's something really cool? Like my version of the Rookie?

How about this: she started as a scout for the Resistance and is now a manager/organiser at the Restoration, working closely with Jewel.

🎹  - Do they have any hobbies?

Video games, mostly action/adventure types.

🎯  -What do they do best?

Flying! With her wind magic aiding her, no one can fly faster or more skillfully!

🥊  -What do they love to do? What do they hate to do?

Shopping and exploring! She travels often, looking for clues about her past, but she's always looking for a nice city to stay in when she does so.

❤️  - What is one of your OC’s best memories?

I think when she realised exactly what her powers could do. Figuring that out about herself would be a big moment.

✂️   - What is one of your OC’s worst memories?

Probably getting bullied for being a freak by the other kids when she was younger :(

🧊  - Is their current design the first one?

No, she's changed a fair bit since her first design. I literally added the extra arms cos I thought it was cool and her hairstyle has changed a lot (as you can see in the above pictures). She also used to be a rattlesnake cos I thought it would be cute if she rattled when scared/angry. IDK, might bring that back.

🍀  - What originally inspired the OC?

I like snakes and I always thought the idea of a snake with wings was cool. I really fell in love with the concept of Coatls in D&D a while back so I wanted to make that my 'sona.

🌂  - What genre do they belong in?

IDK, what do Sonic games count as? Action? Sci-fi (there's a lot of robots, after all)?

💚  -What is your OC’s gender identity and sexuality?

Genderfluid transwoman, bisexual.

🙌  - How many siblings does your OC have?

None.

🍎  - What is the OC’s relationship w/their parents like?

I think pretty good? I don't have parents for her in mind yet.

🧠  - What do you like most about the OC?

LOOK. AT. HER. ❤️

Shout out to @kuchintta for the comission I got.

✏️  - How often do you draw/write about the OC?

Almost never. This is the most I've ever written about her and I don't actually draw much.

💎  - Do you ever see yourself killing off the OC?

No! That would be like killing myself.

💀  - Does your OC have any phobias?

Hm. My phobia is of heights, but she can fly so there's no way that would scare her. I guess not!

🍩  -Who is your OC’s arch-nemesis or rival?

That jerk at Restoration HQ who always gets the best snacks from the vending machine first! How does he always get there so quick?

🎓  - How long have you had the OC?

About a year... apparantly! Wow, that's gone by quick!

[neighborlywelcome]

i haven't actually gotten into welcome home so i think this would be interesting... and might encourage me to finally get into the series lol

can i get a platonic matchup for welcome home? in person i'm very shy, polite, quiet and. awkward tbh but in text i'm waaay different. confident, a jokester, and mischievous. i love messing with people. sometimes that mischievous side of me slips out into irl which surprises people

i love birds. and baking. and music. and video games i love playing games with people

i also have issues with missing home/not having a home which. idk if that's a theme in welcome home? cuz. Welcome *Home*. it might not be worth mentioning but if there's a character that mourns the past i will 100% relate to them.

thank you :)

No problem! If you do want to get into Welcome Home, the website can seem intimidating with how much has been added to it but try not to be disheartened! Take it at your own pace and discover things naturally, or look up a guide if that’s more your speed! (I’d personally recommend looking through the main pages first before clicking all the little drawings/bugs to help get an understanding of the project first.)

Anyways onto the matchup!

YOUR (PLATONIC) MATCHUP IS…

JULIE!!!

Julie is a good match for you to be friends with because, personality-wise, you're very different! Julie's best friend is Frank, who's grumpy and her exact opposite, so I imagine she likes people who are more quiet and shy to balance her out.

Of course, Julie can also be a trickster so she appreciates your mischievous nature when you're more open to her! Julie's favorite thing to do is play games she's made up with rules she forgets to follow, so that's a fun activity for you two to do together (as long as you can keep up with her)!

If you ever do feel more shy and awkward around her, though, Julie will be sure to make you feel at home. You can do more quiet activities together too, like styling each others' hair (she has lots of it, so that's always a chore!) or completing crosswords and such!

Julie is also very enthusiastic about your other interests. Music and baking? As long as you two can make a game out of it, she'd love to play! Fair warning, though, she isn't the best baker in the world but she's spent enough time around Frank and Poppy to know her way around a kitchen!

Julie left behind her home in the caves to move to the neighborhood. She's the only one of her four siblings to leave home, so she probably gets pretty lonely and homesick. Knowing that, you two would be good at comforting each other when Home doesn't feel like home because you can really understand one another in that aspect, and Julie probably misses her family more than she lets on.

A little note about the above: Missing home/not having a home is heavily implied to be an upcoming theme in Welcome Home. Many of Home's denizens moved there from other places and are probably going to have a complicated relationship with the concept of home itself. It'll be interesting to see how each of the characters develop and grow to find a home, for sure!

[simpingandshitposting]

Don't worry there's no spoilers in this post (unless ur super perceptive and read into things then idk this might be a spoiler)

But I just got the BIGGEST My Hero Academia spoiler about Dabi and im having a whole conniption right now😭

And I wanna talk about it SO BAD but I don't want to spoil anyone else bc spoilers suck and most ppl hate it.

Back when I first started watching MHA which was just like a few months before S6 was released, when I first saw Dabi's character I IMMEDIATELY fell in love with him.

Now...I'm not someone that goes out and looks for spoilers cuz I don't really like being spoiled. But sometimes I get spoilers anyways 😭 but it doesn't bother me too much, mostly bc 9 times out of 10 I'll completely forget about it by the time I get there in the show anyways lmfao (the ADHD habit of literally forgetting everything 5 seconds after it happens)

But the ONE and ONLY time I actually purposely sought information/ spoilers was right after Dabi was introduced and I wanted to know absolutely everything there was to know about this man, and I was too impatient to wait for it to come up in show (especially since this was before S6 release so TECHNICALLY him being a Todoroki was still a spoiler for anime only ppl)

Therefore, I dug up everything I could and there are lots of things I know about Dabi's back story that even still are not in the anime, however, THIS information that i just got was very much so new to me😭😭

And while maybe this might not be as big of a spoiler as I'm making it out to be, it certainly feels that way as a Dabi fan

I don't even know any of the details, or how it happens, or when, or what triggers it, I just know the singular detail of information and that it's from the final arc

And again, maybe I'm over reacting 😭 cuz I really love Dabi SO MUCH and this bit of info just like is such a game changer. And it's really such a slap in the face to Enji (deserved) and also it's like...So fucking awesome, but when u really think about it, it's a bit sad in some ways?? Bc of all the trauma he had to go thru in order to get here, and how that really could have been avoided if Enji wasnt such an abusive father.

And also like.... the relationship this could have created between Shoto and his older brother🥲 I know Dabi hates him because of the favoritism Enji played and Shoto got everything that he felt like he deserved, and all of the attention that he craved. But like honestly i wish for nothing more then for them to have the wholesome sibling relationship that I see is fanarts😭😭 bc both of them deserve so much love, especially after how they were both abused by the same man, just in different ways. And I feel like, if Touya had been allowed a normal childhood, this new info would have created a bond between them that just would have been so sweet and wholesome 😭😭

I just want him to feel loved🥲 but I'm like fr losing it over this spoiler even tho it was a such a tiny piece of information and I just needed to say SOMETHING while still trying my best not to spoil others

I hope this didn't give anything away 😭 I feel like it's pretty vague but idk some ppl are super perceptive so if this spoiled it for you then I am so so sorry😭😭

[juniperhillpatient]

Do tell us more about your IT x Atla idea 🤪

Ahhh thank you for asking! I don’t have a clear plan right now, honestly. It’s just something I’m thinking about ever since the lovely @745voiceofthepeople brought up the idea

I won’t be officially starting a new project until Happenstance is done & we have a looong way to go 😉 I did start the outline for & write a few scenes for a Scream AU but idk this IT AU idea just really grabbed me. I mean - aside from my love for IT, how enticing is the idea of a demon that feeds on trauma, from a writing perspective? C'mon, there's sooo much you can do with that, narratively. More thoughts under the cut 'cause this got long & rambly!

Just - can you imagine the Gaang as the losers club? I just feel like the whole coming of age & overcoming trauma theme could totally work with their characters. I was playing with the idea of the Fire Nation kids starting off as bullies but NOT popular kids. Just really mean kids that everyone is scared of. But then they have to team up with the Gaang against Pennywise & the losers club is formed. That's obviously very different than the dynamic between the losers & bullies like Henry in IT but...I think it might work, in this AU setting as long as it's clear that everyone involved is a loser who has been hurt by the town because that's core to the story.

I don't think saying "this character will play this character" really works for this AU. Basically - it's a group of traumatized kids fighting an evil sewer clown, not everyone has to fit an existing role as long as I'm true to that.

But like - in terms of inspiration off the top of my head -

Sokka is likely gonna take heavy inspiration from both Ben & Richie. Obviously, I'd give Ben's engineering ingenuity & interest in architecture to Sokka. I forget if the mini-series includes the bit about the losers club building such a good dam that the city makes them take it down because Ben is just THAT good but the new movies definitely do not. However, that's just such a Sokka thing to do. And of course, like Richie, Sokka uses humor to cope. I can totally see him putting on stupid voices & acting ridiculous to try & make the others laugh no matter what.

I've also thought about how Katara could take inspiration from Bill. Not so much personality this time. But the book has so many really powerful passages about grief & guilt. I don't exactly know how I'd manage the Georgie storyline in this AU, I haven't worked that out. But obviously, Katara will be struggling with her mother's death & some parts of the book where Pennywise twists Bill's grief & survivor's guilt - or just parts when Bill is living with the emptiness left behind - could be an inspiration for covering that.

Of course, I'm going to play with the fire siblings & Ozai if I write this AU. I think that it would be really interesting writing them as still living with Ozai & very dependent on him because I usually write them getting away at the start of my stories. Or, maybe Zuko did get away & he lives with Iroh but Azula is still with Ozai. I could get pretty dark with Ozai & Azula alone in a house especially if I take inspiration from aspects of Beverly's relationship with her dad...

I haven't thought much about romances in this story aside from Azula/Katara. I'd definitely take inspiration from Beverly & Ben's romance for them. Especially that kiss when Beverly is in the headlights - imagine that but make it Azutara! I'm obsessed, are you obsessed? I'm obsessed. Don't worry though, no stupid fucking underwater kiss at the end.

I think writing two timelines could be a really fun writing challenge for me. I forget how the mini-series did it but I know the new movies divided the story into parts. But I would likely try to imitate the style of the novel, going back & forth. The idea of writing characters as kids & adults back to back is so interesting to me. I think that it could be super fun!

I have a few other specific ideas that aren't really fleshed out -

I think that some big characters might have to die in this & haunt the narrative a little.....as a treat. We'll see.

Don't murder me but I'll probably take inspiration from adult Beverly basically marrying another version of her dad because she still hasn't escaped the cycle with Azula. And Mai & Ty Lee can share the role of Kay Mccall. Except - you know - different because I also want them to be part of things in the kid timeline. Actually, I'm not sure how that will work since part of the point is that no one's seen each other in 27 years as adults...We'll get back to that, these are vague ideas, okay.

Alright, last vague idea -

I was wondering who could be the "leader" the way that Bill is. I think narratively, it makes sense for it to be Aang. But also Aang becomes a leader figure in ATLA because he's the Avatar. In this AU, he's just a kid & he's not actually the type to choose leadership, like Bill. But maybe he just steps up super well against Pennywise one time to protect his friends after running away the first time he faces him. This could reflect canon Aang's journey from running away to facing problems & the others look at him as a leader after this. To anyone reading this - what do you think about that idea?

And I'd welcome thoughts on how to fit a Georgie parallel into this story. It seems important but I'm not sure how to make it work!

Anyway, that's all I have for now. Thank you for giving me the excuse to ramble!

[brick-a-doodle-do]

Vara has no idea just how much he influences Irza bc Irza is just so hard to read sometimes

He usually uses the tail or other small signs but sometimes those won't even tell him what Irza is thinking...and this guy can give a death stare from simply thinking and not noticing he's staring at someone lol

And I never really finished the idea of Vara having a sister....

Was wondering if maybe he doesn't even remember having a sister or that she doesn't remember them for some reason

I just

Really wanted to see his sister either be a hero he clashes with or a smaller villain than Irza that appears alongside the scientists that created Ezephr...

Was thinking that she might be hating Vara bc he was so weak that running made him cough blood if he went too long as a kid, and yet he kept shouting about how he'd be a hero and save everyone all the time...but that's a dangerous job. Wondered if maybe she supported it but maybe an accident happened and that changed it?

I had a dream about her when I first thought of giving him a sibling and all I really remember was that she had dark brown hair that had lighter brown patterns like a tabby cat...also her hair style and stuff but I don't remember if she had cat features or not

Remember, their parents are an anthropomorphic cat as a mom and a sprite, basically a forest spirit, as a dad...it's hard to tell what she'd entirely look like

honestlyeeeee that's such a powerful role that's insane that vara doesn't even recognize that !!!

LMAO i feel that. sometimes you just zone out....with a really accidentally-offensive face ASJVSJD

and MMGMDH MORE VARA SISTER CONTENT !!! YIPPEE

i, for one, think that is a GREAT idea. just. mmm to have her be one of the scientists is such a cool way to tie in eze to vara's life, because as far as i'm aware, (except for one thing you sent me), ezephr and vara definitely don't have as much of a relationship with each other as irza and eze does. so mmAMDBJV idk i think the eze scientist idea cool !!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO i like that. poor vara is trying thooo :(((( i gotta ask tho why is he coughing up blood ? what's wrong with our cat boy ? :c ,, that aside i think that some kind of confrontation between vara and his sister would be cool cause y'know. vara definitely isn't the best fighter or hero out there, but he did make it in some sense. that'd be pretty cool.

oo and another cool thing, (don't gotta add this at all, if you ever follow through with this cvncx), maybe since you want vara to not really remember having a sister, he's always subconsciously been really eager to prove himself and never really knew why until like maybe he sees his sister and unlocks some kind of memory from something she says., idk.

aha i love that you had a dream about her and that's where you got your inspo cxvxcn but OOO i like the tabby idea! i have such a soft spot for those guys <3

I LOVE WILD CHARACTER DESIGNS !! also wait do we have a dad for vara ?? i totally forget eueueu

[vsnotresponding]

6, 12, 14, 15 for Karma <3

i'm roughly two eons late to answering this, but i am here.

this is from the tech oc ask btw

all answers are from the fake dating au <3

6. Write out a text exchange between them and another OC.

I chose an exchange between Karma and Sahare because I love their relationship too much

names are how they have each other added (or more like it, how Sahare has Karma on her phone and how she changed her name in Karma's)

Karma 👑: Sahare I know you are busy but can I talk to you? best sister in law ever 💙: sure!!! best sister in law ever 💙: it'll do me good to distract myself from the wedding planning best sister in law ever 💙: if I have to look at another pair of identical cloth ever again it'll be too soon Karma 👑: so Karma 👑: you see Karma 👑: Ira's birthday is coming up Karma 👑:and I was thinking about gifting her some jewelry Karma 👑: but I'm not sure if she's a jewelry type of girl best sister in law ever 💙: I've seen her wear ear piercings but nothing else best sister in law ever 💙: maybe gift her new ones? Karma 👑: no impossible Karma 👑: she never takes them out Karma 👑: she has a matching set with her siblings best sister in law ever 💙: omg that's so wholesome 🥺 best sister in law ever 💙: idk, really best sister in law ever 💙: what did you have in mind Karma 👑: I was thinking of something like this [photo attached] best sister in law ever 💙: it goes with her eyes!!!! best sister in law ever 💙: I don't even know why are you asking for my help tbh best sister in law ever 💙: just make sure it's comfortable for her to wear Karma 👑: okay Karma 👑: how do I go about that?

12. Open the notes/note-taking app on their phone. What’s there?

I'm also answering for Níniam because it amuses me how invested he is on the fake dating

karma has a bunch of links to scientific papers and random notes about the articles he's writing. also a REMMEBER TO note which he often forgets to check. he also started writing down things about Ira to get inspiration for her bday gift (because he's a big dork)

níniam has stuff about his classes and ideas for his photography account. his favorite one is where he keeps track on how the fake dating is going. he has turned it into a full ass d&d campaign

14. You’ve just stumbled across their tumblr blog! Describe it.

karma has 0 social media presence, and the one he has is due to his friends forcing him to make an account (which remains empty until his phone gets stolen and they post for him)

his tumblr blog has 0 original posts just a bunch of reblogs of mythology lore and images, as well as rock nerd stuff. níniam made him change his pfp because he looked too much like a bot (he now has a crown). níniam was also the one that made him create a blog so he could see his posts the only non housekeeping tags he adds are when he comments on níniam's photography posts

15. Describe their computer. Is it a sticker covered laptop? A high-tech gaming computer?

he has a lightweight laptop he uses for his articles and research to take to places easily. pristine clean not a single scratch. he has another laptop for leisure stuff like YouTube and discord to videocall níniam and to play chill videogames

[fkevin073]

damn idk what everyone in the comments on ao3 is on, BECAUSE OMGGG JACE IS NOW MY FAVORITE CHARACTER IN IKYLAO! pardon the pun, but what a prince of a guy! sensible, compassionate, and honorable (i hope there isn’t a surprised twist that will make me eat my words and look like a clown lol)

like he is seriously the only one using braincells, and duh he wants aemond to kill daemon for him, for one vermax is a baby compared to caraxes. him not wanting to fight daemon isn’t cowardly it’s just sensible! what is he supposed to do? go on a suicide mission to kill daemon, and leave his siblings in daemon or the green’s mercy????

even aemond who is supposed to hate him, admires him and sees his point. they’re in a war the micro issues of relationships, endgames is naturally gonna be secondary to the greater issues at hand. my favorite thing about this fic is the nuance of the character dynamics, cause most often in fics it’s like romantic love trumps all despite everything. but here romantic love exists, but so does familial love, and the duties you and loves have to the realm and others. and it’s clear that even if aemond and alysanne love each other, they can’t just forsake everything because of that.

i know it’s not in line with escapist angle of fanfic, but it makes your characters more realistic because they behave like actual human beings. most people are multifaceted and they understand that love doesn’t exist in a vacuum, and that romantic love and platonic aren’t mutually exclusive.

and people calling alysanne selfish, like huh???? she is literally trying to be everything for everyone??? is she were selfish she would’ve parked herself right on aemond’s dick steered him and vhagar to essos and never looked back! and i think they’re forgetting that aemond’s family killed her mother! and she saw her die in the most excruciating way possible, and that she died indirectly because of her. obviously she is going to feel tremendous guilt over that and that she will in her grief try to make up for what her siblings lost. because in her mind she caused that loss.

i’m so sorry that you’re receiving so many criticisms and negative comments on the direction of the story. i just want you to know that i understand your vision and i appreciate you so much.

i hope you’ll follow your own vision for the story and don’t let others influence it. but most of all i hope writing IKYLAO gives you happiness and fulfillment. thank always for sharing! (SORRY FOR THE LONG AF MESSAGE)

((actually most most of all, i hope for a happy ending for jace. idc what happens to anyone, i just want jace to be happy, healthy and flourishing at the end. between this and your jacegon fic i am now 100% a jace stan. pls don’t hurt my bby:())

AHH omg this is so amazing of you to take the time to write this comment! it really means the world. but yeah, Jace's decision to ask Aemond to kill Daemon is definitely controversial, and with reason! I mean it's that balance between being brave and cowardly. Jace isn't an idiot - he knows his family needs him, and he's been tasked with the Song of Ice and Fire. He's trying to keep the realm together as much as possible.

Jace is kind of Robb when he refused to fight Jaime following Whispering Wood - he's smart enough to know when he'd lose a battle, and he knows he'd lose against Daemon. Aemond is the only dragon rider with a CHANCE. and he gives Aemond a pretty fair deal, from my point of view. Besides it'll benefit the Greens greatly if Daemon dies, namely because then there'll be no one to kill them even after Jace takes the capital.

and yeah, I get that this fanfic is perhaps a bit heavier than some of the other aemond x oc ones. maybe that's not fair to say, idk. I think I've made Aemond and Alysanne very attached to their family and their ability to be protectors, so it might make things murkier? idk.

I'm going to be honest, people calling Alysanne selfish for wanting to be with her family after what Otto did is something I'm not going to understand. I respect different interpretations, even tho I don't agree with it. she's certainly flawed - impulsive, naive, righteous, and occasionally ignorant. but yeah, she's trying her best lmao.

I wish people were a bit uh, kinder in their criticism. idk if it's me being sensitive, but there are definitely a few takes I've seen that makes me doubt whether I've conveyed anything properly in this story. I digress!! Jace is a fave of mine always, so writing for him has been sm fun!

thanks sm for the ask!!

[napolonio]

It's my SP, we broke up and I want him back. I've been trying but it feels so hard to imagine a different version of him. Lately he was so cold with me, I was chasing him and he couldn't care less. He was always too busy for me. I'm scared that he will find somebody else and I will be left hoping for a change. What can I do to manifest him? I am frustrated, I get stressed about this and I am in desperate need for movement with him. Help me girl

Bestie... when I got into the law, it was because of an SP. I spent months living for him, basically all of my attention was on him. Seeing this from my current perspective, that's a huge 🚩 .

Speaking from my experience, the best you could do is take a step back, drop the SP and worry more about building yourself. This might not be the advice you wanted, but babe... your sp must be somewhere living his best life while you're worried about getting him back.

Give yourself a break. Really, there's nothing to lose. Just a week, maybe two hehe... dedicate all of your attention to you, your needs, your hobbies, if you don't have any, then find them. Spend time with friends, family; if you have pets, spend time with your pet. Watch a movie, read a book, have a coffee date with a close friend/your mom/dad/a sibling. Idk, but really, do something that makes you happy and does not involve the SP. I challenge you.

Very often, when manifesting SPs people get so obssesed that they forget they have a life to live and they wouldn't dare even for a second to not think about them. I dare you to let him go. He's running away? Let him. You'll see how free you'll feel. You'll be so lightheaded. In your lane. Moisturized. Unbothered.

Now, if you still want him in your life after your week vacay. First thing is forgiveness. You can't manifest someone for whom you hold resentment, you'll either manifest the unlovely version again or not manifest him at all. Let go of his old version, and allow him to be a blank slate, where you can write a whole new story. And write a new one, where you and him have a healthy, happy, lovely relationship

Be patient, and continue building yourself. Your attention should be on you always, not on him. This is like that even with conventional advice. Again... Your attention HAS to be on you and his attention will be on you, as well. If you do think of him, continue choosing the version of him that you want. But really, intentionally choose to make your inner world about yourself.

And golden advice: Don't do this thinking of him, and thinking this is how you will get him. Do this for yourself. Learn to be your top priority. Learn to put yourself first. Not for anyone's validation, but for your own happiness and wellbeing, because you deserve it. You deserve to be so good for yourself that no ones absence will disturb you.

I love you and I really hope your heart's desires come to fruition 🧡

[captainkawaii666]

Okay so I actually sorta did this

It's a long one though so ideas under the cut

My general idea for the art style is that it would be animated, but wouldn't actually be blocky at all (besides maybe just making more stuff in the world have blocky edges and stuff, but not like, to the point of actually being made of blocks) and instead would have a somewhat Ghibli-esque style (or something similar)

The music would either be actual Minecraft music or music with a very similar style, and while it would be generally more intense in more intense scenes obviously it would still be the general somewhat haunting/laid-back combo style even there

As for dialogue, there would not be very much of it at all- Steve and Alex (who would be the protagonists) wouldn't really talk much, and when they do it'd be like, a few short sentences between the two of them at very most (potentially one of them would even be mute); most other characters would either not talk at all or only have, like, two or three lines max unless they absolutely need to have more, with the main exception being the illagers (who would be the villains), and even then only a few of them would talk more than two or three times and those guys still wouldn't say all that much

There would maybe be a narrator as well, but idk about that and even if there were they'd still not talk very much

I also imagine there being a lot of just. Long nature shots, sort of? Like Steve and Alex are on a boat just sitting there as they slowly sail across the ocean and the water ripples behind them for like, five to ten seconds before anything happens (I guess a lot of zoomed-out shots to open scenes is what I'm saying)

So uhh, actual plot! That's kinda an important part lol

I don't have the whole thing figured out yet but here's what I've got enough of an idea to fully describe (I'll reblog with a part 2 later for the rest, or maybe more parts if I come up with stuff slower)

Steve and Alex are best friends/siblings/partners/some other close relationship (it would remain undisclosed in the movie but best friends makes the most sense to me personally) who live in a house that they built together out in the wilderness. (The Overworld is populated in this movie, but it's mostly just houses, villages, and the occasional city dotting a mostly wild world.) They're both builders and adventurers, but Steve is more cautious, reserved, and focused on the building side of things, while Alex is more brave, confident, and focused on the adventuring side of things.

One day, when they go into the village near their house (relatively speaking- it's like half a day or so away but it's the closest one to them) to trade for materials, Alex meets a wandering trader, who offers to sell her a map to an ancient ruined temple out in the desert. Steve notices that the trader seems nervous about the map and anxious to get rid of it, but Alex thinks that it'll be a great opportunity to explore the desert- something she's been wanting to do for a while. Steve relents, since what's the worst that could happen, and they buy the map and head home to prepare for their newly upcoming adventure. (This whole exchange would be like, 6-8 lines of dialogue between Steve, Alex, and the trader, for an example of what I mean by "not much dialogue".)

Here we would see Steve and Alex packing supplies, which would serve to highlight their differences while also showing how they work together well as a team. Steve would pack things they might need to survive in less likely (but not unlikely per se) scenarios, or extra comforts, while Alex would pack things she thinks would make the trip more fun. Also, Steve would almost forget his archaeology brushes because he's so worried about the fact that they'll be in a desert and preoccupied trying to think of anything they might need there, and Alex would remind him.

Later, in the forest outside of the town, the wandering trader and his llamas are walking along in the dark (with torches or lanterns or something in order to keep safe from the undead and such, obviously) when suddenly the silence of the scene is broken by a crossbow bolt whistling through the air and hitting one of the llamas. A band of pillagers burst from the tree line and surround the trader and his remaining llama, pointing their crossbows at him to keep him from running away as a figure steps between them: a vindicator, and one who's clearly been around a while and seen a lot of battles, at that. The vindicator tells the trader to give up the map, but the trader responds that he can't, because he sold it. She presses him further, asking who he sold it to, but he doesn't respond, and she angrily kicks him to the ground. She threatens him with her axes, and he relents relatively quickly, telling her about Steve and Alex. She shoves him and the llama aside and starts moving in the direction he said the two of them went, with the pillagers falling in line behind her- although a couple of them take the time to shoot the trader and his other llama first.

We then cut to Steve and Alex, where we'd spend the next several minutes (though not too long since. Runtime) watching them adventure through the wilderness toward the desert. Along the way, they'd encounter some animals, navigate bits of treacherous terrain like ravines and steep hills, and fight off some hostile mobs (mostly spiders, because I feel like undead and creepers should be treated as a bit bigger of a deal), and most notably, they'd see a strange, lanky, pitch-black figure with glowing purple eyes a couple times, watching them from a distance, but never approaching. This scares both of them a bit, but Steve more than Alex, leading to him staying up late to stand guard when they stop for the night- and lucky he does, too, because that leads to him seeing the pillagers approaching them through the trees in time to wake up Alex.

When the vindicator sees Steve and Alex alert and ready to fight or flee, she orders the pillagers to attack, and they open fire with a hail of bolts. Steve ducks behind a tree, while Alex fumbles to open a pack until Steve pulls her back with him. Luckily, Alex was able to grab what she wanted from the pack: a bow, which she notches an arrow in and peeks out from behind the tree, returning fire at the pillagers- but one against twenty or so won't do much good for long. Steve tries to get Alex to run away, but Alex points out that they need their supplies to stand a good chance at surviving out in the wild, especially with these people trying to kill them. Steve agrees but doesn't see how they can get to it, but Alex sees something in the trees the pillagers are using as their own cover and has an idea. She climbs up the tree until she reaches a branch, steadying herself as it wobbles under her, and fires an arrow, knocking down a beehive on top of the pillagers. The angry bees swarm out all over them, throwing the troop into disarray and giving Steve an opening to quickly toss his and Alex's belongings into their packs. The branch under Alex breaks, but Steve tosses something (water or hay or something probably) under her just in time, giving her a soft(ish) landing.

Alright, that's all I have fully plotted out for now! More to come as I fully develop the rest of the basic plot I have in my mind

Honestly I'm gonna come up with my own Minecraft movie plot just out of spite

[cluescorner]

The three types of Genshin Impact Siblings

1. We are/were literally the only people each other have, we probably had/have codependency issues but we’re working on it through becoming friends with the other main characters, we are very different in some ways but at our cores we are the same, we have faced a lot of grief and expectations in our lives, and our bond is incredibly strong. 

2. Fuck you, bitchass. You think I give a shit about you? You’re right but I’m fucking mad about it. Cain instinct bitch, there can only be fucking one. We are literally so distinct from each other that we share maybe like 2 personality traits and maybe loyalty to our designated region but even that’s debatable. Some people don’t consider us siblings. Sibling rivalry. I do not trust you even a little, but you need to tell me everything that you’ve been up to or I’m going to scream. I am going to kill you but if anybody else tries I’m probably gonna lose my mind. I will kill every archon for you. I hate you. Get out of my sight you punk ass loser. Also you owe me 200 mora from when I bought you that toy when we were too young to understand the meaning of money, pay up asshole. No wait don’t pay up I need to hold that over your head the next time we have an argument so that I don’t lose ground when you bring up something I did that was WAY WORSE THAN THAT.  

3. A weird mix of Types 1 and 2, but give them a height difference.
