Not me considering a short fic from Ashley’s POV telling how she gets abducted on her drive home from university.

Since I need to plan out what happens in anyway since I need those details for her POV chapters in my Re4r fic... hmm...

(Because Leon absolutely will ask her about what happened to try to see if she has a lead on how the fuck this happened). Because the concern is still the mole and traitor.

On one hand, I want a final fantasy 6 remake, because the game is criminally underrated and the amount of fan content (which is all absolutely fantastic btw) is Not Enough for my neurodivergent, hyperfixating brain.

On the other hand, that would inevitably encourage more people to join the fandom, which would be great, except it seems these days the bigger a fandom gets the more toxic it becomes, and I really like what we have going on over here in our little corner. We all just love the game and its characters and nobody fights about who should and shouldn't date who or who you shouldn't like because they're ~problematique~. Nobody's trying to make one ship morally better than another, nobody's calling anyone names or threatening to doxx people who don't agree with their opinions. It's so peaceful and I love that for us. We're just vibing. Moisturized. Unbothered. In our lane. Flourishing.

the disparity in kudos between a skk fic and a fic for literally any other bsd characters/ship :/

[infizero]

listen i was guilty of this once upon a time too but dawg ppl GOTTA stop calling any platonic dynamic they like “siblings” without any precedence 

[jingledbells]

ok not to be hater but I was looking through my tags of my text posts and its like. maybe its just me but if someone makes a post about how a character is aromantic to them maybe don't bring up ur ship pls. make ur own post.

[sonknuxadow]

just got a blazed sonadow post on my dash that was actually such a jumpscare

[lieutenantselnia]

The voices of my f/os are often quite important for me and I feel with Firmus it's no different ... First of all, I genuinely adore how softspoken he talks. Even though he rises to a righ rank, he's not boasting about like some other officers have the tendency to do, but is speaking rather calm and measured, almost quiet sometimes (I literally have to turn the volume up and down all the time in some of his scenes, because I want to hear him properly but the other characters seem too loud in comparison then). He's still able to raise his voice when needed, and will do so if he has to give an urgent order that must be followed immediately, but I think it's just not in his nature to do it without reason. As someone rather quiet myself, I really love that about him.

Another thing, of course, is the accent. As a non-native speaker I'm not proficient enough to determine what specific accent he has, but I love how that rolled R slips through occasionally. Not nearly as strong or frequently as for example Grand Moff Tarkin uses it*, it's more like a pleasant surprise that pops up every now and then. I believe it's called received pronunciation (any British people here who can help me out?), and I personally just find it wonderful to listen to.

*Say what you will about the character but his accent absolutely slaps, I'd totally listen to an audiobook read by him. Generally so many of the Imperial officers have such nice voices to listen to, because they casted mostly British actors for them and due to Star Wars being already an older movie, many of them were using that kind of accent that was more common at the time than it is today. In my humble opinion they should bring that back especially for villains >:)

Also I will just say it's weirdly jarring to see so many people ship Amanda and Wooly, I mean I get it, people will ship literally anything for no reason other than they want to. But like? I always saw them as siblings

Hell, Amanda makes it clear she don't see Wooly as an equal. Wooly might be closer to her pet if anything

Idk a lot of different ways to interpet their relationship but I feel adding romance to it just makes it weird

[ssreeder]

What are your top ten favorite scenes in Avatar the Last Airbender?

Hello again!

Ok… so ummm… they are in no particular order:

1. The last Agni Kai of course: The music, colors, emotions, the rise of one sibling & fall of another. I adored the red vs blue & of course the whole ‘self sacrificing Zuko’ lol

2. “get out of the bisons mouth Sokka”: It was just so funny to me Zuko was already done with everyone shit and he JUST joined the gaang imagine if he has joined season 1 hahah.

3. Zuko swimming into the NWT: because like…. You fucking idiot.

4. Anytime aang went into the avatar state (esp in season 1): he was such a goofy child then he would start to glow & there was so much power inside him idk I thought it added to his character a lot and reminded people that this kid is the fucking avatar

4. “Come back when the good is on the outside too”: or however the quote goes when iroh came to get the gaangs help to save Zuko and Sokka once again was just like nahhh fuck that guy. (This also goes along with the Sokka wanting to leave Zuko to die in the snow - I just love he wasn’t having any of zukos shit)

5. Zukos gay fire breath and sokkas bi awakening: because for an early 2000s show that was hella gay

6. Zuko blue spiriting to save aang: it was moment I think I started to like Zuko haha.

7. When the gaang was training for the final battle with Ozai & they were all fighting together & at the end Sokka and Zuko were pretty much like you gotta kill the fire lord aang & Sokka sliced the melon head in half; (toph being the melon lord was epic too)

8. Sokka Ice dodging a bato: idk that was such an important moment for Sokka & he deserves to feel important and have a male figure invest time into him so hell yeah Bato.

9. It’s a tie between Sokka telling toph boomerang isn’t coming back & toph saying “that’s a lot of fire isn’t it?”: the seriousness of that scene and the way Sokka never stopped fighting & how he would have held onto toph as long as he could - it was such a powerful moment (& then of course Suki saved the day!!)

10. Last but not least the kyoshi warriors training with Suki whooping Sokka into shape! Suki is one of my favorites and she is both firm and gentle with Sokka which I think is fun! (& then Zuko comes to burn everything down and Sokka gets to fight with the uniform on haha!)

11. Because fuck it, any scene with Zuko & Jet interacting - it’s like two scenes, one when they kissed on the ferry, and then their major break up with swords. That’s how it happened don’t argue with me.

Thanks for the ask, I probably have some other favorites but this is what popped into my head hah.

[around-your-throat]

petericker until i die but some of you are such snooty assholes about other ships as if your ship is canon 😑

[seefasters]

Hi there, it's okay to not like a fandom/ship/character, but could you please not tag it if you're not saying nice things about it?

Ship and let ship... you know :)

i havent tagged te*dbecca ever tho, its just that tumblr's tagging system is notoriously ass

[wheelercore]

The "fruity four" thing really was a great example of this fandoms strange relationship with the character's sexuality (excluding robin because she canonically a lesbian ofc), and by that I mean have you ever seen that tumblr post about how people will hc a characters sexuality completely based on their personality? That's like. Exactly what I'm talking about here, in particular this weird Asshole = Heterosexual thing going on. So you'll end up with people (fans aren't already invested in Gay Mike Truthism (tm)) who are like Nancy is actually a lesbian! Steve is bi! Dustin in pan! Lucas is bi! Mike is the Token Straight Friend though because he's a dick and I don't like him! And it's just weird to watch because ofc I have no problem with hcs, god knows I have my own, but it's like trying to hit the bullseye with a dart and instead you pluck someone's eye out with it.

And this fandom attitude just doesn't mesh with any media that actually seeks to tell a complicated story about a gay boy in the 80s who feels all the worst feelings about himself and the people around him. Yeah of course he's going to be a bit of a grouch. Maybe a bit of a meanie head as he has to pretend to be heterosexual. Maybe he does actually deserve to be with the boy he's in love with though?

It could be that it isn't explicit yet that Mike is very possibly gay, fair enough, but something similar is done with Will. From the beginning its been pretty obvious that his character was queer, but you even still get people (who aren't fans of will and mike obviously) who will be like oh he cries too much. Oh he's so pathetic. Or he's so weak when he's giving monologue about being different and how that makes him feel like a mistake, how he's clearly suffering from the long term effects of the abuse he's suffered from Lonnie and from bullies.

Idk it just feels to me like the point is being missed. Badly.
