āmen are always willing to believe two things about a woman: one, that she is weak, and two, that she finds him attractive.ā
truly insane to have a character say this and then make them actually attracted to men in any capacity. btw.
#dragon age#morrigan dragon age#i know iāve said this before#captain holt voice. and youāll hear it again!!#like listen. i know it would change the implications of the ritual. but clearly theyāve already considered#that you can have sex with people youāre not attracted to bc she can sleep with an unromanced warden or alistair or loghain#yknow it just ties into the whole. my mother raised me to be a certain type of way but thatļæ½ļæ½ļæ½s not me#i really like her friendship w a female warden and feel like itās a good romance on-ramp but it would also be thematically interesting#if she were asexual#but i know 1) leliana was originally supposed to be a lesbian and that didnāt fly#and 2) if it was on their radar even a little bit. they would have avoided it bc of Problematic Implications#ie discourse about corrective rape. even though sheās the one who initiates it and makes it very clear. if sheās not in a romance with#that character. that itās just doing a job that needs to be done and there is no emotional attachment there#i also think. perhaps. they could have done something different for the ritual ESPECIALLY if theyāre going to call it that#like obviously itās a fade to black scenario but persistently calling it a ritual makes me think thereās something Else that happens too#maybe lean into that#anyway iām just saying thereās workarounds for these excuses i made up lmao#mine#morrigan

just a reminder that people don't need to explain why they ship or don't ship a ship or why they write or don't write for a ship, no one owes anyone any explanations and seeing people send asks about it is just so weird and ridiculous and confusing tbh
have you never been in a fandom before? don't like something, block and unfollow buttons are right there - and the opposite too: looking for fics/gifs/art for your ship, well, the search function is there too, its so easy to find blogs that share your ships, and you can ask for recs or whatever
just, stop asking people to explain themselves out of ships of all things, this is literally fiction, who the fuck cares about the why and why nots jfc
#seen a few posts like that over the past few days and im annoyed lol#what even is this#ship and let ship#simple as that#ofc i don't mean genuine polite discussions but some of these asks seem... not that lol#i could say so much about why a certain ship is more appealing to me atm but like why bother lol imma just do my thing (ie write fics)#like you're not gonna convince anyone to ship/stop shipping something so just chill out lmao#this is fandom and fiction it's really not that serious#shipping discourse#just a reminder#911 fandom

my hot dunmeshi take is that not every character is autistic
.........bc there are other flavors of neurodivergency that fit some of them better āļø
#chilchuck for example reeeeally gives me ADHD vibes more than autistic#especially the accidental rudeness from lack of filter and the difficulty resisting temptation#(ie immediately wanting to drink as soon as they found booze even when it was bad timing)#he also just reminds me of my ADHD dad at times lmao#Kabru as well gives me ADHD more than autism but I can sorta see the case for him being autistic#I also like the idea of OCD Kabru I think that would fit especially with his childhood trauma#and I've already said that I 1000% believe that Thistle is BPD#lyla's talking again#dungeon meshi

people rightly criticize how team 7 reacted to sasuke's pursuit of justice for his clan, but one thing i feel is always overlooked in these discussions is how sakura literally is not granted the option by the narrative to learn about what sasuke has been through ā not in the way that naruto, kakashi, or even team taka are. throughout all of part 2, she is operating under the assumption that sasuke killed itachi and then turned on the village for no apparent reason.
in part 1, she offers to help sasuke with his plan to kill itachi and even says she'll come with him so he won't have to handle a clearly dangerous and unstable sannin alone. she tells him she wishes he would be more open with her because she wants to understand what he's going through. (all of this stands in stark contrast to naruto, who says he'll break every bone in sasuke's body to bring him back, or kakashi, who projects his own traumas on to sasuke.) then in part 2, she can't bring herself to hurt him despite ample opportunity and even though (as far as she knows) he's become a violent criminal. throughout the series, she's averse to inflicting harm on others (aside from the punching naruto gag). is it really so unreasonable to imagine that if she knew sasuke was avenging the state-sponsored genocide of his clan, she would respond differently? with more empathy and compassion for his circumstances, and anger of her own towards konoha?
#people never factor this into their sakura discussions and it does upset me#like no offence but no one raised in konoha is going to have a political awakening where they realize how awful the system is#without some major catalyst (ie what happened to sasuke's clan) and she never gains access to that information#it's also been pointed out that her speech to him at tvote2 is really stupid and like. i agree#but if all she knows about the situation is from naruto and kakashi @ sasuke saying he's given into hate or whatever#of course that is going to be her response? like what else would she even say. she doesn't know what's going on LMAOš#don't get me wrong i think in canon (pt1-2) their relationship has a whole body of issues but a bunch of them are intrinsically tied to thi#uchiha sasuke#haruno sakura#sasusaku#this is not really a shipping post but that's my tag for their relationship in any form sorryyy#naruto meta

i had a really funny revelation that Crosshair and Echo were [during S3] and still are sharing the Havoc-4 call sign, probably even playfully fighting over it, now that Crosshair is back on the team,,
then i realized that Crosshair probably took up the Havoc-2 call sign because Tech is gone
IT STARTED OFF CUTE AND NOW I'M JUST REALLY SAD ALL OVER AGAIN šššššš
#crosshair#echo#tech#the bad batch#star wars#lmao wait what am i doing??... i've already decided Tech is alive and well [in my AUs]#so fuck this i'm having Crosshair and Echo playfull banter and fight over who should have Havoc-4#omega is literally like ''i'll take havoc-6 that's totally fine then one of you can be 4 and the other 5''#but they're both playfully stubborn and refuse to be ''outranked'' by the other (ie neither wants to take havoc 5)#so they keep fighting over havoc 4 (but secretly they love sharing it) (neither will ever admit it)#(omg lolol IMAGINE THIS#crosshair: [badly wounded] i don't think i'm going to make it#echo: it's ok you're fine you're fine just hang in there#crosshair: echo... i want you... to have... the havoc 4 call sign... you always deserved it......#echo: .......you're about to die anyways so it's going to be mine regardless#crosshair: fuck you!!!! [stands up] lmao i'm totally fine it's just a ketchup packet i had in my pocket#echo: christ you're such a shithead havoc-5#crosshair: carry me to the medbay havoc-5

Thought I'd go give 2004 me--who was so stupefied at how the Yankees blew a three-game lead to get swept by the Red Sox in the ALCS that year (and was first radicalized by it probably)--some closure here now that I'm impartial to baseball š§¦
[Also ft the Anime Zakka store my friend recommended to me, the Riverway IPA I had at the Trillium Brewery I was *hoping* to stop at (see my new get from said anime shop), and the grub I stopped for at a local gay bar which was tasty (alas the delish fries were left unfinished)]
#ore no kao#boston#solo traveling#gay#club cafe had a great vibe to match the food! and also plenty of cute guys#(talked to one named Robb[y/ie] next to me at the bar--after 30mins probably of me eating/thinking he might want to talk lol#would be nice to know someone biblically before i go back to nyc š¤)#[also i think the cute English guy and Coloradian from today at my hostel both leave tomorrow so ughhh maaaybe should've gotten an insta]#[maybe when i pop down for some pre-morning-jog coffee]#i took so many photos today between my sightseeing boat ride and the anime shop lmao#oh also it's cute how most of the city has that red sox spirit#the [noun]way bit is cute too

does anyone know where i might find a post about how post-apocalyptic scavenging stories, specifically noting the last of us and the walking dead, are fundamentally reflective of a fear of homelessness. i know i saw one when the tlou series was first releasing but i cannot for the life of me think of where to find it
#talkyllama#the last of us#the walking dead#tlou#tlou hbo#it's for school jsdfhj we're analyzing emplacement and positionality wrt imagination of the future#and reading octavia butler's parable of the sower which i think gives a really interestingly different point of view from other such storie#where society collapses entirely#because stores still function and you still have to spend money to buy things there. in that dystopia. which is not the case in these other#other stories#which is why i think parable of the sower may have a more compelling and more realistic depiction of homelessness as an issue of enduring a#an apocalypse. cus what do you do when it's just YOUR society that has collapsed? and the rest of civilization (ie grocery stores etc) are#still functioning and still expecting you to function as if the social contract still stands#so. if anyone could point me toward this post im thinking of thatd be gorgeous lmao

Throughout the entire game, who do you think are some of the most underrated or under-appreciated characters?
stumbling into the askbox whyyy hello there!!! it had been a while!!
OKAY SO. let's start from one fact: every. single. character has something special about them. so like the easy answer is... anyone, lmao. truth be told we (the whole community) has been around for llke, 18 years (WOAH) and some sides are completely unexplored. even just from the idea that... have you guys ever noticed how little content there is around about nerds and jocks, for exmple? and i don't only mean art but also writing, analysis, metas, thoughts and such. not to mention the townies, the townies, when, having some of them been given some actually adult attributes, there would be a lot to unpack.
i feel like this is a) mostly for the nerds, that the rightful fisgust for the horrible thing they did to mandy discourages a lot from engaging with them as characters too, and b) because they are quite overshadowed by the fan favorite preps and greasers. which, i mean, very legit. but i think that they do have a lot of potential, again, in terms of characterization and themes, and i feel like we are collectively missing out on a lot.
and there's also the fact that, even with the fan-favorites, there is so little tapping into the more serious and sometimes mature aspects. i wouldn't say christy is neglected by the fandom, but it's not often that i read someone talking about her repressed anger that explodes whenever she feels too much, that heirloom of her father that of curse she doesn't have, she isn't a problem boy like her brother, what do you mean with that, i could use this tie to strangle you goddammit! or vance, that we all love as the sunshine jokester of the greaser and heartbreaker queer icon, but how come none of us ever mention him having a canonical addiction, and what if his messy dating habits have to do with that, too? what if he's running from something inside himself, rushing to next best thing just so he can feel something?
but this is just me rambling as an introduction oops. so, just trying to list a couple of my favorites:
thad carlson (& dan wilson) (putting them together bc they're intrinsecally connected and while i do stand by the fact that he's wildly underappreciated in the fandom i would hit dan in the face with a brick): i would lterally give my first born for these two. they are what they actually wanted to write when they wrote about cain and abel. i'm not sure what is the exact reason why they have different last names, and i don't wanna enter headcanon territory here. what it does unavoidably indicate, though, is that they were doomed from the start. like it was written in their names. so, picture this: they were in the nerds together. they suffered the bullying, the abuse together. the humiliation tasted like blood in their mouths and shone like the stars they'd see with their heads smashed in a locker, but at least they knew their brother would've been there to hold them. there's something very visceral about suffering together with a brother. like the blood they share creates somewhat of a shell, one that can protect them from what is outside, that can give them the comfort that they will never be alone. whether they like it or not, their brother will forever be with them; it's inside them. except that thad had the rage of a wounded animal; dan had the fear of a small prey. so, while thad kept standing tall and proud and chin high against his bullies, dan started training and morphing until he could be accepted in the jocks. dan wasn't the bullied anymore. he was the bully. while his brother was still on the other side of the war- the side of the eternal losers, that is. the side that, no matter how many battles they will win, they will always be at a disadvantage. so thad has got all the hurt of having been betrayed by a half of himself, like the phantom pain of a lost limb. and the hurt makes him angrier and angrier and when he wants to take revenge on the jocks his brother is the first target he wants, because, see, he is the victim, his brother is cain who has killed abel. but also dan has got his head on backwards to look out for enemies and for anyone who might uncover him as the fraud he is, the way he just thought- they are just bullying me for what i am, so what if i become someone different? except that it's not like he didn't feel like a loser anymore, he just feels like a loser with a football sweater. so at that point you look at the direction of that violence, at where the anger and the resentment lies, and you stop there and wonder. who's cain there? who's gonna be the victim, who the executioner? like nathaniel orion said, "i want to kill him sometimes. i think sometimes he wants to die". i love them ur honor.
otto tyler: i have no literal idea why there is so so so little about him. admittedly, content about townies is in gnereal harder to track down, since they have... no last names.... for the most part. but the otto tag is absolutely desolated. this boy is what you'd call too angry to be this young. his first response to anything is extreme violence and fantasies of it. playing his audios you will be met with die, kill, die, kill, kill, die, die. and all of his vitriol is poured on the school, like they have all come together specifically to hunt him down. and he's been canonically hospitalized, as well; when you walk in the asylum for the first time (galloway away i believe) he tells you not to "anger the watcher"- but who is this watcher? the composition of the scene seems to implies it is the statue in the courtyard; the most coherent correspondence would be the orderlies you will have to avoid as you walk past them; maybe otto himself has just been told not to anger the watcher by the people who are supposed to take care of him, but that are just playing with his mind to make him too afraid not to behave. which, incidentally, doesn't sound too different from what he might have suffered at school. otto will ask you if you have ever punched a wall. he will swear he hates everyone in the school, that everyone in the school hated him, he will threaten to destroy it. otto is a landmine, he's an unstable kid who just needed some ground to stand on, and instead they placed him all alone on a shaking earth. all is anger is desperation, it's having spent too much time without a support system, too much time bound -to a chair, in a cell, in a straitjacket- surrounded by people who couldn't understand him. who stifled his expression instead of channeling all the feelings he had all the time, exploding and intense in an overwhelming and violent way. i like to think of him as an artist. he mentions tattoos; i like to imagine he's learning to do them himself. that he's finding that as an outlet for his expression. and yeah overall. i am a lot fond of otto, and i think he would have a lot to say.
mr. wiggins: look, this guy is super unlucky. he's the only teacher with no class minigame; he's only ever walking around, and if you saw him you probably mistook him for the more familiar mr. matthews. but believe me when i tell you he's a real one. example 1: when someone snithces to him, he says something along the lines of "thank you, but i will never be able to trust you again". BRO. let me tell you, in 1968 this guy was OUT on his college campus and he was MARCHING and RIOTING with workers and students. he even mentions having spent a night or two in JAIL. he will walk into class and say the nastiest things about reagan while he keeps saying that as a teacher he will have to be politically neutral as if he didn't just have a fight with hattrick about socialism.
#high school history teachers will be high school history techers ig!!#thank you sosososososo much for the ask!! i love answering these questions!!#like. ALL of these characters have SO much potential and even after all this time there is so much yet to unpack. so im glad i have a chanc#to do it!!! teehee#i feel like i should've added someone else.....idk what kept me from doing so tho. probably because im also Not Exempt From The Guilt#and also bc this is already SO long LMAO. whops ele does it again#idk what stopped me from adding casey too. maybe bc in thinking of what to write i realized i was sort of overestimating what can actually#be deduced from canon quotes lmao. but yeah you should know that hes one im a bit fond of among the jocks.#but the reblog thingie from tumblr breaks the limits that socrates attributed to scripture ie it being unchangeable so.#also again thank youuuu hope you like these!!! otherwise. im always willing to answer more <3#bully#bully canis canem edit#bully scholarship edition#bully cce#canis canem edit#thad carlson#dan wilson#otto tyler#mr. wiggins#odyanswers#odyposts

Randomized Robins AU - Ages + Worst Trait Exercise:
Steph (25):
Says her worst trait is her murderous rages (she is exaggerating for dramatic/comedic effect, sheās killed 3 people tops and for very good reason)
Thinks her worst trait is her spitefulness (one of the few traits she definitely got from her father + one that prevents her from fixing her relationships and living her best possible life. Sheāll refuse to interact with someone she dearly loves after an argument (happens significantly less after Timās death) or will say things she knows are hurtful just for the sake of having the last word. This trait will worsen in some ways as the list of people who have wronged her and those she loves grows, but will also ease up as she matures and realizes the harm itās doing to her relationships with those she loves most.)
Her worst trait really is her spitefulness
Cass (26)
Says her worst trait is her self-righteousness (she believes that her goals are righteous and, as a result, she is righteous. Cass becomes very defensive whenever someone questions the mission and often does not second-guess herself. This is a trait she only develops later in life as she grows closer to Bruce/learns to understand herself more/starts to love herself more. But she knows she isnāt perfect and when somebody she trusts criticizes something she is doing she is willing to listen. She just usually isnāt the one to START the introspection.)Ā
Thinks her worst trait is her self-righteousness.Ā
Her worst trait actually is her obsessiveness (she gets it from Bruce and, while not as bad as him, she will easily become preoccupied with her night-life and the mission if someone isnāt there to pull her back. She will do this to the point of self-destruction and it hurts her relationships with the people she loves, especially Steph.)
Tim (24)
Says his worst trait is his spitefulness (he actively rejects the idea of mending his relationships with the older members of the family and this causes him to also lack good relationships with the younger ones)
Thinks his worst trait is his obsessiveness (similar to Cass, if he gets fixated on a task or idea he will neglect everything else in his life in order to dedicate more time to it. Unlike Cass, he will almost never be dragged away from it unless Pierrot snatches control of the body and forces them to take care of themself.)
His worst trait actually is how manipulative he is (the KING of guilt-tripping and using peopleās emotions against them. Heāll do whatever he needs to do to get what he wants, heās not above crocodile tears. And he will do it to whoever he needs (or wants) to with little care for how his actions impact others.)
Pierrot (Insists: āAge doesnāt apply to me! And even if it did, I'd probably be the oldest. Or the youngest! Iād never be a middle child, though.ā Mental assessments by the Bats have put him around 21, with a margin of error of 3 years. Pierrot has called this āblatant character assassination by my eternal rival!ā)
Says his worst trait is that he is an irredeemable psychopath without any regard for the wellbeing of others (this is a lie and everyone who's important to him understands this).Ā
Thinks his worst trait is his parasitic nature (he literally would not exist had Tim not suffered the way he did. Plus he is a living reminder of one of the worst things that happened to many of his loved ones. He is a parasite injected into a functional person's body and contributes to his continued suffering. This is also a largely incorrect judgement of himself, caused by his actual worst trait.)
His worst trait actually is his limited sense of self (he doesnāt really know who he is outside of āinheritor to the legacy of the Joker (a man he despises yet also views as a father)ā and āchip in Timās brain that became sentientā. He slowly develops an identity over the course of his life and relationships with other people, but he lacks the foundations of identity that most people have. Pierrot will often almost become a caricature of himself and what others perceive him to be because it's the only person he knows how to be. This causes wild swings in how he behaves and relates to others, sometimes to the detriment of himself and others.)
Dick (17)Ā
Says his worst trait is his clinginess (he is a very extraverted person who likes to be around others, which mixed with his fear of abandonment after his parents died means that if he goes a few days without seeing/talking to a friend he will get very anxious.)
Thinks his worst trait is his anger issues (he gets ticked off very easily and will explode on people. Heās kind at his core and is usually very nice, but he has a temper that can escalate significantly. Spoiler (and later Twist) help him channel this anger into something positive.)
His worst trait actually is his anger issues.
Barbara (18)
Says her worst trait is her disability (internalized ableism, she thinks of herself as less valuable than the other Bats because she cannot be out there in the capes like they can. She will grow out of this as she matures and as she learns how invaluable her support for the team is.)Ā Ā
Thinks her worst trait is her disabilityĀ
Her worst trait actually is her overly-independent nature (In an attempt to overcompensate for everything she can no longer do, she has resolved to do literally everything that she possibly can without any help from others. This results in many instances where she either takes on too much and winds up not being able to fully realize any of her tasks or where she makes her life and the lives of others significantly harder by refusing help when offered/not asking for it when she needs it.)
Damian (16)
Says his worst trait is his perfectionism (he is overly critical of both himself and others, taking any flaw or problem and amplifying it to an absurd degree. This is due in part to his life with the LoA (where even a brief misstep could lead to death), in part to how others treated him initially as Spoiler (any flaw was fixated on and used as a reason to either mistrust him or portray him as unworthy of the mantle), and in part due to the fact that he is Bruceās son (the only person with worse perfectionism problems than Damian). Gradually, Damian has improved in this regard but itās still a massive barrier to both his own happiness and his relationships with others.)
Thinks his worst trait is his perfectionismĀ
His worst trait actually is his perfectionism
Duke (16)
Says his worst trait is his definitely-real secret evil side (says this as a āmy dad is a villain so who knows??ā joke)
Thinks his worst trait is his impulsivity in his words (Sometimes he will crack a joke or say a remark without thinking it through, leading to a LOT of hurt feelings and drama. Heāll say something without thinking it through and wind up seeming insensitive. This isnāt done because of malice, rather because Duke is someone whoās quick to act and speak. But while the mantle of Insight and his awakening powers have helped him with his actions, they do not always help with his loose tongue. As such, Duke gains an unfair reputation in the media as an instigator and will accidentally cause family drama through what he says.)
His worst trait actually is his impulsivity in his words
Jason (14)
Says his worst trait is his bad manners (he grew up on the streets and has no idea how rich-people society works, which heās pretty insecure about considering heās now the youngest kid of Bruce freaking Wayne).Ā
Thinks his worst trait is his reactiveness (Jason never got the privilege of planning ahead for various events in his life, so he instead needed to rely on being swift and harsh in how he could react to situations. Itās saved his life on multiple occasions and helps significantly in his role as Spoiler, but it can also lead to extreme overreactions (accidentally causing kidnapping scare after Jason ran away following a fight with Dick) and a struggle to plan things out ahead of time. As he grows more secure in his place in the family and in life, this trait will lessen but never fully dissipate.)
His worst trait actually is his reactiveness

And now I'm spending my day making a bunch more shadowing audio files which is boring af but it seems to be the most effective learning strategy for me I've come across so far.
#chough chatterings#the walking around listening and parroting stuff that is#not the process of making audio files#it's basically hacking the time where i normally wouldn't be able to study effectively#ie when walking to work or on the train or at the supermarket or at the office etc#not that i parrot on the train. i just mouth words to myself. but i wear a mask so no one can see and no one knows lmao#other people think it's bc i'm conscious of covid but nope! i'm just conscious of looking like i escaped from the asylum again#not spreading potential covid is a bonus though#can't wait for autumn when i can just walk around for hours#i feel like i need to use the rest of summer (while it's too hot to go walking) to prepare as much audio content for autumn me as possible

It must be so hard to be so obsessed with canon that you exit out if a fic if they mess up a canon fact. Like. If I see someone mentioning something WrongTM about canon I just presume they have edited Just That Section of canon because they personally decided they hated it š
#but also ???? especially in comics ajfjdh#BECAUSE SO MANY RETCANONS.....EXIST.....#like the difference between latchkey kid tim drake of the originals vs new 52 put his parents in witsec--#but anyway LMAO my personal ones are like. a) i write a lot of 'post fixit fic but im not writing the fixit i allude to it'#or b) this character choice sucked SO BAD it's not my canon#ie. sanji in water 7#(ā¬ Ćļ¹Ć)#bip bop nari drops#anyway. just very funny to me. how. difficult it would be. if you were uptight about fic#i am! i def am! about certain things!#but idk#š I've seen some 'this pushes me over the edge' that make me....cackle#ie. this character CANNOT be the second to kiss them#OR ANOTHER WHICH WAS: I DON'T THINK HE'D DRINK TEA#b r o ??? you'd exit a fic FOR THAT??

So, it's been a million years since I've done any real writing, but I was toying around with potential descriptions for one of my dnd campaigns, and I'm really proud of how it turned out:
tw for graphic description of an injury
Every inch of [Rook's] back and shoulders is raw, covered in dozens, maybe hundreds, of small cuts. They overlap and merge so that his entire back is one giant wound. But you can't even get a good look at the cuts, because they are covered by a thick layer of dried blood, almost black in some places.
This will be part of the description the party gets upon seeing Rook for the first time after he was kidnapped by Captain Wolf, and dear god I can't wait to see their reactions both in and out of character. :)))
#the DM's response to me sending him this was ''that's disgusting I love it'' in all caps and that might be one of the best compliments ever.#if anyone's curious what happened to Rook uhhh... he got keelhauled.#the rest of him is beat to shit too but his back is a fucking MESS.#and it got just left like that for DAYS. untreated.#needless to say he's not having a very good time when they find him.#and that's before we even get into the blood barnacles!!!#morrigan.text#my writing#oc: Rook#dnd#my best friend once called me ''a sadist for fictional characters'' and when I write things like this and get hyped up about it#I can't exactly disagree lmao.#injury tw#blood tw#godddd I can't wait for him to get kidnapped.#I've been waiting for it for MONTHS now and we're still probably at least 6 weeks out from it and I'm losing my mind waiting.#sorry I don't have any ''real'' (ie from my wips) writing for you but I've been so burnt out the only thing I've had a passion for is dnd.
