out of context lines from my unfinished jojos fics

spoiler: it's mostly caejose

In a horrifically humiliating turn of events, the pair begin to wrestle. It’s a bizarre scene of a man in his 60s desperately trying to keep hold of a squirming, protesting twenty-something– a passerby probably should’ve alerted authorities, it all looked very strange.

“What the hell is wrong with you?” Kakyoin shrieked, asking the question Jotaro had been ever since he met the man. He was, as Jotaro always had been, ignored.

“Caesar!” Joseph said excitedly, hands fluttering around as the man sat himself up, groaning and rubbing his palm over his forehead. “About damn time you woke up! Some crazy shit is happening, and you’re there snoozing away!”

Joseph thought, upon returning to New York and finding his family gathered around a headstone with his name carved into it, that he’d maxed out on his ‘weird things happening to me’ quota for the month. Unfortunately, he was wrong.

“Hey, uh– Jotaro,” Kakyoin stage whispers, “Any insight?”

God, he wished. “None.”

Caesar, who is honestly handling this concerningly well, just nods. “Of course it is me.” He says soothingly, though his expression is pinched. “Jojo… why are you so old?"

“What the hell, Caesar?!” Joseph yells back, still a bit wet and pathetic.

Caesar looks towards Jotaro and the others, somewhat harried. “Hello. Do you people know what is going on?”

Avdol answers. “No, not really.”

Polnareff adds, “Who are you?”

Might i be bold and ask you for your fave bkdk fics?

Anon. Anon. I'm so sorry that I've taken forever to reply to this ask, but I hope you understand that this is one of the hardest tasks I've ever had to do I think for starters I'd recommend the 'big 3' bkdk fics. They're all popular for a reason, and if you're looking for something long and angsty, you can count on those to deliver. (Though, I will be honest here and tell you that I never finished twyutd, but from what I hear it's a super good fic!!)

As for specific recommendations, I'll try to condense my list of favorite fics wayyy down and then go on to name some authors that I love so this post doesn't go on forever So, after scrolling in a hot sweat through my bookmarks, here's the final list:

promises kept by gabstar The Night We Met by majjale

glowing skins and pleading fingers by mimisyum

All We Ever Knew by dynamics

warm hands by flowercafe

all that you ever wanted from me was sweet nothing by maxisnotokay

Do Not Disturb by surveycorpsjean

headliner by passengerside

As for bkdk authors, here are a few of them whose works I adore and go back to read day after day: ladyofsnails

I see a lot of content here in the solarpunk community about the importance of re-wilding, of re-introducing biodiversity and turning our garden's into little sanctuaries, but this has always felt super inaccessible to me. I have always lived in rental properties that have little to no outdoor space, need to be regularly mowed for inspections, and where I am not allowed to make any major changes to the garden.

Recently I moved into a tiny granny flat. The yard is about a metre and a half of grass in a circle around the house, and a metre of grass either side of my concrete driveway. When I first got the inspection report for it, the real estate described the yard as "mostly weeds." This time I thought, fuck it. I only have inspections once every three months, which gives me plenty of time to let it grow without anyone noticing. Plus I had the insurance that with the lawn being "mostly weeds" the real estate wouldn't notice the difference. Let see if letting it grow actually makes a difference to the eco-system around me.

I invested in a push mower, to cut down the grass without doing much to the "weeds", and then after my first inspection I just let it grow. My hopes were not high. My space is absolutely tiny, and most of the wild flowers growing in my yard mostly invasive species for Australia. I had no idea if it would make any difference at all.

Its been an uncharacteristically rainy spring here, so the flowers all sprung up far far more quickly than I thought they would. Only two weeks after the mow there were dandelions as high as my knee. With the wildflowers came the bees, and the butterflies, and then after that came the ladybugs, the dragonflies, the lizards, spiders and birds. The photos above are only a tiny fraction of what the garden has on offer, and those are only the photos from this week.

When I first moved in, I didn't used to see anything in the well mowed lawn but ants. Its only been about a month and a half since I mowed it, but with all the rain we've had recently its sprung to life far far more quickly than I'd hoped. With such a teeny tiny lawn in the middle of the suburbs I really didn't expect to see a difference in biodiversity. How much difference can such a tiny little patch of flowers actually make? It turns out a lot.

I'll be devastated when I next have to mow it all down in another 6 weeks, but with the risk of snakes here, its probably for the best. It honestly been so lovely to walk down my driveway in the morning and be circled by all the butterflies. Its made my day every morning.

I hope I've convinced anyone else who also has a tiny space and has been considering letting it grow out to give it a go. You don't need to have a huge garden or be able to plant all native species in order to make a difference. Although these things are great, making due with what you have is the best first step.

'I flirted with the idea that instead of being trans that I was just a cross-dresser (a quirk, I thought, that could be quietly folded into an otherwise average life) and that my dysphoria was sexual in nature, and sexual only. And if my feelings were only sexual, then, I wondered, perhaps I wasn’t actually trans.

I had read about a book called The Man Who Would Be Queen, by a Northwestern University professor who believed that transwomen who were attracted to women were really confused fetishists, they wanted to be women to satisfy an autogynephilia. And though I first read about this book in the context of its debunkment and disparagement, I thought about the electricity of slipping on those tights, zipping up those boots, and a stream of guilt followed. Maybe this professor was right, and maybe I was only a fetishist. Not trans, just a misguided boy.

About a year later, on the Internet, I come across a transwoman who added a unique message to the crowd refuting this professor. Oh, I wish I remember who this woman was, and I wish even more that I could do better than paraphrase her, but I remember her saying something like this: “Well, of course I feel sexy putting on women’s clothing and having a woman’s body. If you feel comfortable in your body for the first time, won’t that probably mean it’ll be the first time you feel comfortable, too, with delighting in your body as a sexual thing?”'

I'm sure it's been discussed at length already but I think it's easy to assume saiyans are strong so their genes are dominant but I (like to) think it's the opposite. It's interesting to think that the ecological nature of a saiyan is stealthy and invasive, and according to Jaco a saiyan invasion was going to be extra dangerous to earth because they look like earthlings (and a lot of other human-like races in the db universe) and one baby saiyan will easily go completely undetected until it starts the extermination process.

so it actually makes a lot of sense to me that a saiyan hybrid would take more physical traits from a local species, while maintaining the potential to house a saiyan's strength and inborn power over ki (which I think due to the story following a group of people who use it is a thing we often forgotten is a super rare and dangerous ability in that universe, and inborn/instinctive to a select few very powerful races). Could also be a fun way to explain why their tails can detach and grow back, since that may be the only real Tell.

because like yeah gohan and goten look like goku but they also look like chichi ykwim? trunks and bulla look like bulma. pan looks like videl. thoughts i chew on.

I also just find parasitism a real good meaty horror concept to put in my little 'this is why everyone's afraid of saiyans' headcanon file along with 'can see in the dark, biologically strategic energy consumption, can go long periods without food or rest' and of course the canonical 'surprise monkey werewolf kaiju'

trying to figure out the symbolism of the eternal trailers. this isnt gonna have some strong conclusion on the theme, im just writing out my thoughts :)

first lets talk about the "emotion ver" trailer. i'm going to refer to the version of taemin in the lighter area as light taemin and the one in the darker area as dark taemin.

here we see light taemin in a bathtub surrounded by plants and flowers vs dark taemin in a empty bathtub in a lifeless room. light taemin is in a much smaller bathtub in a smaller room, plants blooming all over with curtains and streamers (?) surrounding it. dark taemin is in a lifeless concrete room, no plants or light to be seen, but it is incredibly open and empty, a direct contrast to the almost congested room light taemin is in. is there something here about how even in places that seem beautiful, they can be suffocating? beauty doesnt negate the negative effects a place has on you?

i was also curious if an empty bathtub specifically had any symbolism so i googled it. it seems to represent emptiness, desire for cleanliness and purification, and possibly even fear of change. i think its interesting an empty bathtub is in both locations. both the dark and light versions are empty and looking for purification, yet are afraid of change.

here, light taemin is sitting in a seat almost like a throne, surrounded by living pansies, to the point where hes almost overrun by them. his eyes are closed as if hes sleeping. in contrast, the darker room only has one pansy, growing through the cracks of the concrete room. its not meant to be here. it fought to bloom here. dark taemin is fascinated with it, and the mirrored version of him shakes his head and tells him not to touch it.

the pansy blooming in the dark is obviously symbolic of growing despite hardships. blooming into yourself despite everything working against you. i also believe its directly connected to his emotions. but why does the version of taemin in the mirror shake his head? who is this version of taemin? he must be a part of the curious taemin, some part of him telling him to be less curious, to stop messing with things he shouldnt.

the melancholy of light taemin, barely moving, eyes closed and lounging. acceptance of where he is vs the curiosity of dark taemin. despite the darkness and emptiness, he's still curious. he touches the wall, investigates the pansy, and looks at the mirror for guidance. i think light taemin is empty despite being in a blooming space, and dark taemin is full of curiosity and life despite being in an empty and lifeless space.

now, who is this version of taemin? he is in the same light place, holding a singular pansy. i want to assume its the one from the basement area. is this the true taemin, and all other versions are inside of him? is it a symbolic manifestation of the different versions of himself within, or is this some kind of mastermind who is manipulating all the other versions of himself? is this the one true taemin? if so, who is the dark figure in the motion trailer?

now lets look at the "motion ver" trailer. we see this veiled taemin leaving the area the light and dark taemins were trapped in. when i first watched this, i thought the cloaked taemin slipped in after him, but upon this rewatch i realized the veiled taemin looks at the cloaked taemin. he sees him and leaves anyways, letting him in. if this is the True taemin, and all the other versions are inside of him, what does it mean that there is still another version of himself, and that he allowed this cloaked version in? he literally let the darkness in, willingly and on purpose.

if this pansy symbolizes growing through hardships and blooming in impossible situations, what does it mean for this version of taemin to crush it and smear it on his face? is this an act of destruction and anger or is he embracing it by making it a part of him? i dont believe this cloaked version of taemin is supposed to be evil, taemin literally never makes things black and white like that, so there must be another meaning to this.

i also think motion vs emotion is interesting. feeling vs doing. thinking vs acting. in the emotion version we see the many different versions of taemin sitting and standing around, investigating things, culminating into the veiled version of taemin. in the motion version, this veiled taemin leaves and the cloaked taemin enters and crushes the pansy. i think in the emotion version, we see them feeling and thinking about their situation. in the motion version, we see the version of taemin thats ready to take action. the veiled taemin, the emotional version, leaves and allows the motion version, the one who is prepared to take action, to enter this space (mental space? is this a representation of his mind?). the veiled version is letting the darkness in and embracing it because this cloaked version of taemin is the one thats willing to act and do what is necessary to get what they want.

also, i know pansies represent shinee world. ive seen people joke like "if pansies represent shawols, how does taemin feel about us if hes crushing them?" but i dont think its inherently a negative thing. things can be both negative and positive at the same time. i think it (in part) represents his hopes and the love he has for his fans, it symbolizes the growth hes experienced as an artist and a person, but being famous is tough. hes talked a lot about his feelings in regards to this. having so many people looking at you and so many lights shining on you is suffocating. i think it shows that the pansy is a light in the dark, but too much of a good thing can be bad. its two sides of the same coin.

taemin has always played with the duality in everything he does, and that has definitely extended to this new concept. i'm very excited to see if my theories are supported or if they fall apart with the rest of the teasers and the music video. i expect my theories to be flipped upside down. we'll see lol

I was looking at your post of which Disney Princes the Weasels would be, and it got me thinking; which princesses would our gals/their S/O's would be? I hope this assessment puts a grin on your face XD and that I got your OC's right ^^

Lottie: Mulan. There was no hesitation in my mind with this one. Tough, badass, and military trained, but also loves her family to pieces. And they both got silly sidekicks too XD (Mulan has Mushu and Cricky, and Lottie has her unkles and cousins XD)

Shiny: I feel like Megera is the best candidate, even if she isn't an official disney princess. They're both sarcastic queens who have troubled histories, especially with men, and they both are soft inside ^^ and they both know how to seduce to get what they want, even if Meg hadn't been successful with Hercules in the way she expected.

Jane Doe: ... Sleeping Beauty, because they both are hiding from evil forces and don't appear so often? I'm sorry! I know Jane deserves more 😭😅 if it helps, it's also because I think they're both underrated (Sleeping Beauty was/is actually my favorite princess, despite how people feel about her and her movie). Another candidate I offer is Nala, as they are both are the half of their relationships that bring the best out of their partner, and are playful but also level-headed and focus on what's most important (Jane Doe on keeping Teddy safe, and Nala on bringing peace and order back to the pride lands)

(This moment between Nala and Simba definitely happened between Jane and Wheezy. You can't convince me otherwise XD ^^)

Poppy: I was gonna say Cinderella, but then I remembered that Psycho is Lucifer the cat, and got sad because that'd mean he'd be mean to her and make her life harder (and she would threaten him with a broom) 🥲😆 but that's fine, because I think Snow White is her best fit; they both are comparatively naive to the others, they both have messed up things either happening to them or that have happened to them. They both befriended a group of rowdy bachelors who would chase a wicked witch off a cliff for them, etc. And Poppy wishes she could sing in a well about her love life and her soulmate would appear like Snow XD (Also, something I've wanted to write is Percy and Penny watching Snow White for the first time and saying that their mother looks like a rabbit Snow White- and in turn asking dad if that makes him prince charming XD ^^)

(☝️This old lady Rena trying to seduce Poppy? I'm sorry I'll stop-)

Rena: She ain't a disney princess. I won't let those big blue eyes fool me. She's a wicked old queen. Rena and Yzma are both wicked, fabulous, crazy oldies with impeccable fashion taste. They both have weapons in equally sus and convenient(?) places. They both have very clear types (I'm with you; Yzma hired Kronk not just for a henchman), and can get people quickly on their side (Rena is more friendly than Yzma, but you saw how quickly Yzma got the palace under control... Granted, that's probably partially due to them not caring about Kuzco's 'death', but my point still stands-)

These are my votes! If I got your OC's wrong, I apologize xD but this was fun to do! ^^

I love these so much!!!

Especially Jane Doe as Nala and Rena and YZMAAAAAA absolutely perfect and I love it so so so much XDD

And hey, maybe Poppy should threaten Peycho with a broom in some of our AU's 😅😅😅😆 Even the regular timeline.

OMG!! That Percy and Penny bit is so CUTE! XD I must know how Psycho would respond to that XD I must have Smartass, Greasy or Wheezy walk by and laugh-

And Shiny as Meg <3<3<3 I feel so soft about that. Obviously that is perfect XD ^^

Thank you so so much for sharing!!

[angelthingy]

the thing is i think that like. afab and amab as terms arent like. a bad thing?? like if you're talking about urself and ur assigned gender happens to be relevant and is preferrable to another descriptor (eg if ur dysphoric abt ur body to some it may be easier to say ur agab rather than describing ur features) or describing a situation where thats relevant then like. sure! its just like any other word u just use it cus it makes sense- (note this only applies if YOU'RE using the term when you're talking about YOURSELF)

the problem is that when other people use or ask for someone's agab there's some kind of weird implication that it somehow changes how you behave, and that based on that you can put people into a new binary which shouldnt exist and negatively effects all trans people

people ask if you're amab expecting that to mean you're inherently more patriarchal, dangerous, "masculine" - and if you're afab expecting that to mean you're inherently more quiet, sweet, "feminine" - and BOTH of these fucking suck!!

Stupidest part of anxiety is wanting to write a fic in a fandom where all of the characters have intentionally two-dimensional or flat personalities but worrying you’re gonna accidentally write something that goes against the general fanon you weren’t aware of, and then getting the subtle details of flat characters right suddenly becomes far more stressful than getting the nuanced and three-dimensional characters right.

[milkdreamspecialmix]

if by spamano you mean “this is a result of some kinda weird emotional baggage mixed with attraction and it’s a bit awkward because of their past and not terribly sustainable” and not “this is the one true love ride or die end game ship and they both live happily ever after” then yes

[thereareeyesinsidethetrees]

Any other headcanons you wanna talk about? For Ford or others? I’m always free to listen!

hi sorry this took a while, i was trying to figure out which headcanons i wanted to talk about here- thank you for the asks! :D

i have yet to post any queer headcanons for the pines family and im still excited about ford using it/its pronouns, so here you go!

mabel - i headcanon her to be panromantic and aspec. maybe demisexual? havent quite decided yet. she's also transfeminine and xenogender. xenogenders. she cannot be contained in just one. also a neopronoun user- she/they and a bunch of nounpronouns. she collects them like pokemon cards.

dipper - had to think on this one a bit (ive seen two different headcanons for him that i really love). i headcanon that he's biromantic arospec and bisexual (possibly aspec? still not completely sure.) he's transmasculine! i think he'd tell people his pronouns are he/him, but he wouldn't mind people using they/them or neopronouns for him

stan - bisexual biromantic for sure. also somewhere on the aromantic and asexual spectrums, im just not entirely sure where exactly he'd fall. he doesnt know either. he's trans, and he's not sure if he's transmale or transmasc. he doesnt really care about finding out. he/him but he's fine with they/them too.

and i saved ford for last because i wanted to say- there's actually a specific reason i headcanon all these things about his identity. which is that i saw other people talking about him with these things in mind and went "oh shit thats me isnt it".

moral of the story- the below headcanons were all stolen directly from other people and this is how i realized i was trans and aroace. the gravity falls fandom really can be wonderful. also i would die for aroace ford.

anyway- i headcanon ford is aroace. specifically, he doesnt feel any romantic attraction (im sure theres a word for that but i wouldnt know it) and he's sex-repulsed (i know the word for that one- apothisexual). he may or may not have a queerplatonic relationship with fiddleford. this is something mabel and stan have been trying to figure out and they just havent yet.

he's transmasc! real big fan of the idea that he realized that simply not gendering was something he could do after going through the multiverse. he uses he/they/it and, like mabel, collects neopronouns like he collects anomalies

bonus headcanon for fiddleford - biromantic bisexual and transmale. may or may not be in a queerplatonic relationship with ford. he's okay with whatever pronouns you want to use for him but does lean towards more masculine or gender-neutral ones.

i wouldve included soos and wendy and melody but i havent quite nailed down my headcanons for them yet

People who don't have children shut the fuck up about how to parent challenge.

[sparfloxacin]

they are too cute I aldjkalfkskflsjflflsk

now how can we hyperanalyse this for the benefit of the delulu 👀

(I hate hats like that lol how come Olli only looks cute in it 😭)

Ikr?? 😭💗 this was so unexpected and really made my day 🤧🥹

I wonder why just they chose to do this 🤔 like, I want to know how it went 🤧 makes sense that Olli is there as he’s the merch guy(tm), but how did Allu end up there?? By the looks of his hair someone interrupted their make out session 🤭

also yes this is my train of thought but this reminded me of when Niko posted a video on Twitter where Olli says Aleksi already asked him to room the night and someone asked what did Aleksi do to summon Olli and this was Niko’s answer 👀:

hmmmmm interesting

[lucky-clover-gazette]

i removed the "could be platonic or romantic" tag from the adaptation fic bc these bitches are gay as hell and it's way too interesting a dynamic to ignore

[smallestapplin]

(a little angsty cause you know me :3c)

i remember you wrote that fic about the twins discovering that the reader was the hero and them being like "omg?? you're the hero?? from 100 years ago?? what HAPPENED??"

and hhhhh i love the idea of the hero just wilting, struggling to keep the weight of a hundred years of failure on their shoulders off of their fate. After all, this is all their fault, if you think about it. No doubt the twins blame them too, right? what little friendship you had with them is now lost as they find out you're the failed hero of the past, back again to fix things (and by GODS will you fix things, even if it kills you)

and maybe the twins don't think this way of you, because how could they blame you for getting hurt? for being outnumbered and ambushed? but you're on your knees, face blank and eyes empty as you recall the tales of your failures, the harsh words that people have hissed at you, for why didn't you save hyrule? didn't the goddess choose you??

hylia doesn't make mistakes, so maybe you were just accidentally picked, in place of the real hero.

and now the twins are left to cradle your tired, tired body as you struggle not to drown in the torrential downpour of your hateful thoughts, whether their echoes of what other's have said, or the swipes of your own hatred for yourself

hhhhh i have so much angst stockpiled because of this game and the twins being in it makes it extra juicy

YEEESSSS THIS IS EXACTLY IT!

You maybe the chosen hero, but you don’t remember anything! You’re only told what happened second hand, even though you were there!

Hylia’s chosen had failed.

It clicks in Ingo and Emmet’s brains now as to why anyone who recognizes you, gets hostile with you.

How those people don’t like you, and blame you for the fall of Hyrule.

Yet you would always stand there and take the verbal lashings.

Stand there blankly staring.

Just how many times have you had to do that?

They are worried you, yet when asked ‘what happened?’ Is when you break.

You’ve been asked that so many times, long before you met them.

“I failed. I let everyone down, I got everyone killed.”

It breaks their hearts to see you so lost, so overwhelmed by everything and the grief of people you don’t even remember.

They want to help you, to protect you, to give you an actual welcoming home.

If you’d let them, that is.

You have the weight of the entire world on your shoulders, a world filled with people who loathe and blame you for their loses.

Yet you still try to help, still try to make it all right.

You’re struggling, they can see that.

Please, just let them hold you.

(They are also incredibly protective of you, especially from that lady in Kakariko who’s married yet flirts with you-)
