#im just ranting and raving tbh

[teagballs]

hello angel! I was wondering if you could write a Dennis Reynolds x fem!reader one shot where basically, reader is apart of the gang and has been for a while. Surprisingly, one time when Dennis was really angry, she calmed him down. Everyone was shocked the first, but slowly overtime got used to it. Dennis always ignored the warm feeling in his chest when she calmed him, but when he went on a date and got really mad and the girl tried to calm him down, he got even more angry than realised he liked reader??

sorry if it’s confusing 😭🫶

calmed | dennis reynolds x reader

read part 2 here!!

authors note: HEYOOO still alive. thank u sm for this prompt anon! tbh it was a bit of a challenge and i struggled 😭 i always struggle to write for dennis. i hope i did this idea justice cuz i love it. also this is my first iasip fic im publishing yayayay please send more requests for it im sooo deep into it rn. ive got a dee fic in the works rn.

cw: average dennis insanity ofc, swearing, mentions of D.E.N.N.I.S ing girls so yk, mentions of sex.

fic under the cut!

You can recall the first time you ever saw Dennis freak out.

"Idiots! Fucking idiots all of them!" Dennis ranted in his usual methodic tone. The gang wasn't phased, this sort of Dennis rant was something they'd become accustomed to. For you - the latest addition the gang - you had never witnessed one of Dennis' outbursts. It was probably that empathic nature or yours that made you want to act, to console him. And you did. Despite the gang's protests, once they noticed you about to leap into action. They knew it was better to just let Dennis ride out the anger and come down again. But you reached out and touched his arm. The gang collectively held their breath, expecting Dennis to bark out some obscenities in response, but it never came. The feeling of your hand on him made him turn to face you, to look at you.

"Dennis, it's okay, we'll fix this, I promise."

And he calmed. And took a deep breath.

"You know what? You're right. I can fix this." Dennis exhaled. Everyone was shocked,

"What the fuck just happened." Mac said blankly. In the whole time they had known him, Dennis had never been able to be pacified from one of these insane outbursts.

But then it became frequent, because Dennis's raging was frequent. Every time he would begin ranting and raving, you were able to calm him down. It was a voice of serene amidst the chaos. It went on for years like this, as you became part of the gang.

You were usually there hanging out with the gang when things would go wrong, and you'd be able to solve it and calm him down. But today, that wasn't the case. Today, Dennis was on a date.

Dennis was in the process of getting this woman to sleep with him, his stock procedure. But the date had been falling apart. It first started with his suit getting ruined. After dressing himself up in a nice blazer and shirt outfit, it was massacred by spaghetti after Mac spilt it on top of Dennis. Mac was haphazardly carrying it through their shared kitchen and failed to notice him.

"Christ Mac, what the hell are you doing!"

But that was okay. He could manage. He would just have to change. And although this did delay him, he could still D.E.N.N.I.S this girl. He could just say he was late because he was helping some old lady cross the street or looking after a stray kitten.

After successfully making it out of the door, he began to drive to the date. A cute restaurant not too far from his apartment, a picturesque rendezvous. But this was stalled even further by the lack of parking spaces available. Dennis groaned at threw his head back against the car headrest. After circling the block for what felt like the 100th time, Dennis decided to just park further away and book it to the restaurant. He settled for a tucked away corner of the city. Sure, it was far, but hey, at least it was a space.

Finally, after running to the entrance of the restaurant, he saw his date waiting, arms folded.

"Dennis! There you are! What took you so long?Are you.. okay? You look at a little out of sorts." Cadence spoke.

"Sorry. Sorry. Some old hags cat was- was trying to cross the road. I had to run from the other side of town." Dennis panted. He didn't expect the journey to have made him so debilitated. 'Not a perfect excuse, either. I might have messed up the wording..' he thought.

Dennis and his date, Cadence finally entered the restaurant. Dennis regained most of his breath and approached the host.

"Reynolds, table for two." He told the host.

The host scanned their notebook with a pen and searching eyes.

"Sorry, sir, I don't see anything for Reynolds here. Are you sure you booked for this restaurant?" The host replied. They lacked any kind of care for the situation, replying in a detached tone. Most likely years of working customer service had drained them.

"Am I sure I booked for- do you think I'm some kind of bumbling buffoon? Of course I fucking did!" Dennis snarled. Seemingly the frustrations from the evening were overflowing and spilling out.

"What do you take me for some kind of idiot!?" Dennis continued to bawl.

At this point, his date was getting embarrassed of his uncontrolled emotions. Cadence leaned in and touched his forearm. And maybe if it wasn't Dennis Reynolds she had performed this action on, it could have worked and soothed him.

"Dennis its okay, we can go eat somewhere else if you want?"

Immediately Dennis shook her grip off him.

"If I want? Why would I want to eat somewhere else when I made a fucking reservation here. What I want is to eat here!" He snapped, tapping his finger on the hosts notebook.

"Dennis, it's okay. We will do whatever you want." Cadence tried again.

"What I want? What I want is... well, what would you know about fixing shit! You're just..! Well, you're not.. not." Oh. And that's when it hit him.

What Dennis wanted now was not a reservation at this pseudo-rich restaurant. And he knew he certainly didn't want Cadence to try and comfort him. Her words didn't seem to hold any mindfulness or meaning... but yours did. She wasn't you. What he wanted was you. That's all he ever wanted. Everything else he had been doing for was a pathetic search to fill the void. The women he was trying to do, D.E.N.N.I.S, the dates he'd go on, the sex he would have, it all meant nothing.

All he wanted was you. A pure undivided love and something he had never felt before. Dennis had an unprofound realisation that he liked someone. Something most come to grips with in adolescents. But for him, that realisation was something he had never had. It made his heart ache and burn. He needed to act. He needed to call you and spill his heart out. Because no one was like you, and that's all he could think about as he turned on his heel and left the restaurant.

obviously im not pro-ai art but, im sorry, fennah is absolutely garbage at arguing against it. throughout the entire "debate" he fails to bring up any actually convincing real-world consequences, instead hyperfocusing on "humanity is gonna get lazy" for a whole 4 hours, and raving about "cultural erosion" without ever explaining what he means by that. he is constantly interrupting to ask questions that either would literally be answered if he let the other guy finish, or change the topic entirely. he is significantly softer on the guy than in his original reaction stream & brings up pretty much none of the points he made in that stream. both of them have a ridiculously narrow minded "more effort = more value" view on art and constantly shit on "modern art" (i would have loved to hear their definition of that), shad casually drops the R slur at some point with 0 pushback, they randomly get sexist for some reason and start discussing "thots"?? and "the woke mob focusing too much on race and sex" is another pressing issue for these guys apparently. all while they're constantly jacking each other off for being "the only ones smart enough to consider AI art real art", and throwing everyone who disagrees with that under the bus, without ever considering or honestly engaging with the reasons why people think that. just straight up a completely unproductive waste of several hours that should've stayed as private discord call tbh.

legit there's nothing more frustrating than the guy you want to hear argue your side doing an utterly terrible job at it. particularly a fellow artist who you would think would have the experience necessary to convey the wider art community's concerns. i guess i went into it with the wrong expectations of thinking it would be an interesting discussion of all of the pros and cons of this technology, but unfortunately it's just 2 dudes repeating the same points over and over about the hypothetical demise of humanity.

im dumping all of this in a tumblr post because its living in my head rent free and i will not suggest anyone i actually care about should subject themselves to that trainwreck just so i have someone to rant about it to lmao

[franciskirkland-deleted]

I had to ramble because Antonio is indeed a hard character to write. He's both awful and amazing

PLEASE RAMBLE are u kidding me. rambling is never not welcome this is rambling central. i am nothing if not the village idiot here to rant and rave, if anything u should apologize for enabling me xx <3

this little fucker needs to be trapped in a jar and studied under a microscope... i need to Understand him... he compells me against my own will... he's like a bull who's been castrated.

as a nation-being-person, he's oddly youthful even in comparison to younger nations. he's old as dirt, older than france actually, and still not as mature which is not setting the bar high. he's passive-aggressive and vengeful, but also extremely influential in a positive way? like western society without spanish culture would be so dull.

he's someone who was once immensely powerful but rly isn't anymore and has become, for lack of better words, irrelevant? never to me, but i have literally met grown adults who did not know spain was a country (let alone portugal) i wish i was kidding rn. as a History Enjoyer i can't ignore the fact that spain has a dark past, responsible for everything from colonial imperialism in the 15th century onwards, to brutal fascist reign throughout the 20th century. like tbh, he was once on par with england for being the Worst re: colonization, genocide, exploitation etc. in my honest opinion - while france as an imperial power did some awful shit particularly in africa - england, spain, portugal and the netherlands are by far the worst.

buuut with that all being said. i mostly write human au and i do tend to keep irl tragedies at a distance, while their personalities are still influenced by historical events, at some level ig.

as a human, he's just as complex. he's a fuckboy. he's a himbo. he's a loser (affectionate) and sometimes a loser (derogatory). he's Catholic and debilitatingly homosexual. he's passionate. he is... devastatingly sexy. he is kinda wifey, ngl. he's also kinda socially incompetent but gets away with it bc of his looks. perfect smile... sexy accent... fat ass... grrr i am squeezing him like a stress ball... i have written him as everything from a total manipulative creep to a bumbling fool who just wants his papi. like look at him... if he told me he was just a caked up white boy who never did anything wrong i would believe him... and im italian so he would bear my children.

you can pry my canon divergent spamano from my cold dead hands. pelt me with rotten tomatoes in the town square i dont care.

the bottom line is, spain has no business being this cute, but some way, somehow, he is, so imma go with it ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

[therobishow]

Saw your post and who am I to deny an opportunity to rant about terrible terrible twilight knock offs?

Okay so ever since twilight came out in 2005, there's been a load of knock offs inspired by the "vampire=hot and sexy/mysterious" and while some of them are, this author P.C cast and Kristen Cast saw the idea and cranked it up more than was necessary because what the hell.

The book is called House of Night and there are lots of books. And the idea of being a vampire was that you had to be marked/chosen in order to undergo it's transformation which. If you were chosen, you had to be with a fully fledged vampire until you were fully fledged yourself which is a long process (around four years) and what is a better place than being with a bunch of fully grown vampires than a academy with other chosen with the fledglings as the teachers?

I'm not gonna lie, it's a great concept but it's terrible what the authors done with it. Transformations don't always work and the chosen sometimes die, but in order to prevent this- you had to be pretty and not fat. Shockingly this isn't the worst thing on the list of how many messed up things this book had done

Then the authors worsen the book more by having the characters be problematic. (They sl#t shame a lot and this doesn't make sense since it's common knowledge that drinking human blood /blood in general is sexual in the story)

Examples include saying the r word, fetishizing queer characters, making a white character "twins" with a black character because they're just so alike like using aave as an example (and the black character she's twinning with is terribly written as well so it just ends up more terrible)

And absolutely terribly horrendous relationships!!

The main character is the "not like other girls tm" and so she gets the bad boy, some sort of thousand year old grandpa boyfriend, a TEACHER boyfriend, and a human boyfriend 😭 (for the amount of shaming this book has, the main character is getting busy with every boy she meets)

AND WHAT MAKES THIS BOOK MORE WORSE is that they thought it was cool to use Indigenous culture but strip everything about said culture so they can fit use what they thought was cool to use in the story. Im happy for any type of indigenous reputation as an indigenous person myself but WHY

They just made the main character (who was named Zoey redbird btw, cool last name tbh but absolutely shitty character) have op powers and call her a "Cherokee princess" with no respectful mention of Cherokee culture at all. They just made their own thing and slapped the word Cherokee on it and shipped it as representation.

For a character that's supposed to be non-white, she was acting the opposite despite being close with her grandma who was Indigenous (+ being stereotypical) and inheriting op powers that were meant to be from her "culture"

PISSES ME OFF SO MUCH

I don't even know how I saw past the red flags as a kid reading this book but now that I have, I'm just so angry just thinking about it 😭

I hope this rant of mine was entertaining

I was just on the right side of too old to hear about this series back when it came out. So let me tell you, it was an absolute trip to see what was in these books when my friends started raving about them a few years later.

Like, this? This is what they were so hyped about? I'd rather them tell me how much they love 50 Shades - well, okay, that's a little too far, but still.

I truly don't understand how any woman survived the absolute peak of fatphobia that we hit in the 2000s. And I'm including myself in that. No idea how I lived through it. These were the days when people were calling Britney Spears fat for being a size 4 instead of a 0. How did women not just collectively die off? Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that we made it through, but holy hell it was by the skin of our teeth.

So someone really needs to tell me what the actual hell was going on in the 2000s that made every piece of teen media present teacher/student relationships like a totally cool and not abusive and traumatizing thing. Remember how grossed out everyone was by the Archie/Grundy relationship in Riverdale? In the 2000s, no one would have batted an eye at that. It would have fit right in with every other teen show at the time. I can't watch hardly any of my favorite high school shows anymore because of that. Ugh, so gross.

And holy shit I forgot she was indigenous! Well, in heavy quotes at least. That Cherokee Princess nonsense is such a White People move and I just can't. I don't know what's worse regarding indigenous rep, House of Night or Twilight. My man Charles de Lint isn't perfect and he's fucked it up a few times, but at least he actually tries and shows respect (um, hey, if he's actually far worse than I think, please let me know).

But, hey, in maybe possibly good news, apparently the writers are trying to convince the publishers to let them rewrite the series so they can do something about all the problematic stuff. That at least has the potential of growth for them

[vintage-bentley]

i get clowning on the ofmd middle aged man kiss (i thought it was ok but i understood the putside fandom reception 😭) but how are people clowning on this this was award deserving acting the buildup the trembling the thing aziraphale did with his mouth that convinced me there was tongue involved the "I lo-" im going insane over here

I thought the OFMD kiss was okay too, I think it’s supposed to be awkward on purpose. It felt realistic. But I understand clowning on it because tbh it’s so awkward that I tend to politely look away 😂

But there’s absolutely no reason to clown on the GO kiss. The acting is fucking phenomenal. I already said this in a separate post, but the acting is SO GOOD that just from this image

People were able to gather that it was a desperate attempt at something, and/or a goodbye of sorts. I saw a theory that Aziraphale had lost his memory like Gabriel, and this was Crowley desperately trying to get him remember. A theory that Crowley was saying goodbye before sacrificing himself for Aziraphale. In general, the theories seemed to be that something bad happens that leads up to this moment. And that’s exactly what happened…and we were figuring that out just from that one still obscured by a word.

I just think that’s really cool. That it’s such an emotional scene that people were able to feel the right sort of vibes just from a still image with zero context.

And then obviously there’s the before and after, which are amazing and make me tear up. It’s such an emotional scene. It’s so, so good.

I think that a lot of people, when looking at kiss scenes, think they’re only good if they’re “sexy” kisses straight out of a romance. I think it could have something to do with many fans of shows involving M/M couples being OSA women (especially straight women, who unlike bi women can’t relate to the characters’ experience of SSA) looking for content to drool over and fetishise, and being annoyed when the content doesn’t allow them to do that. But this is a good scene. I don’t get awkward straight guys out of it at all…I get a sense of heartbreak and desperation, because that’s exactly what it is. It’s Crowley’s last attempt at changing Aziraphale’s mind.

Excuse the ranting and raving, I got this literally right after I finished rewatching episode 6 and my heart hurts.

[disco-cola]

ok rant so my copy of daisy jones and the six arrived and ive been excited for it bc i thought i could really dive into it and it might be so good that you forget it didnt actually happen and im only on page 26 and im already bothered and confused bc only a few pages earlier they were talking about how the original first band lineup got together and billy dunne says that this chuck guy was "a few years older" than the rest of them and on page 26 (the vietnam draft section) it said his birthday is april 1949 and he got drafted while the dunne brothers were "both born in december" and didnt get drafted. but again just very few pages earlier at the beginning where it is mentioned that the brothers' dad left in 1954 the first sentence this billy dude says is literally "i was seven when my dad left" which would make his birthday out to be in december 1947, consequently making HIM the eldest band member?? im sorry it might be a small detail to some but failed continuity things like that just bother me so much omg

also idk as i said i only just started out but i've already noticed a few sentences said by the main characters that sound like something a gen-y or gen-z person would say but not an older person - and as i understand the book is mainly conducted of fake interviews the author did with a fictional band when they were already older and decades have passed - in an interview talking about his or her youth in the 60s

also in the few pages i read theres this hyatt house concierge criticizing "thirty-something rockstars sleeping with teenagers" and also billy talking about seeing his dad at that wedding gig dancing with a girl their age calling him a creep and dont get me wrong, viewing these age gap relationships critically is absolutely right but this is supposed to be in the late 60s, age gaps were way more normalized back then (they actually still are way too normalized in society right now in my opinion tbh quick side note leo dicaprios new gf?? hello when does this dude get finally cancelled?) and so many people in that book are so "woke"? idk honestly also the whole oh so perfect oh so beautiful oh so talented daisy character is already highly unbelievable to me, the way everyone raves about her in the interviews is just kind of too much and quite frankly, so far i really dont dig the book :/ you just feel it's not actually from someone who was there, it's a romance story set in the 60s/70s rather than a 60s/70s story including some romance.. i really should have read the blurb on the back of the book before blindly ordering it man... just my personal impression and opinion (quick upside tho: the format with the fake interviews and the fact she actually wrote several complete song lyrics is very interesting and remarkable, i've never seen a novel in that writing format before and it's really original)

[butterflymay]

rant below 👇

i may try semi recovery again. like i knowww i keep saying this (on like all of my other accounts which i have deleted everytime i try recovery. im keeping this one tho it honestly helps me i just gotta do the reset thing with the tags) but i never go through with it.

im so scared rn like i have to go to the hospital soon.

i passed out at work again, but this time i stayed. my crush wants me to recover, and tbh i know if we get together and this brain fog and mood swings are in effect the relationship wont last. i really like this guy.

i really like food too. i like my restriction food, but i also like pastries and not passing out at work. i like toking and getting silly little treats. i like freaking milk in my tea.

i wanna go to raves and concerts and i have plans for a big concert in september but like i gotta get better.

im just so damn tired. i seriously cant do this shit again.

[arsonshub]

hello yes im still ranting and raving about beastars years after

i really wish that they talked or went into more about the idea of carnivores being more "protectors" instead of like, violent murderers. because the series manga and anime both go into the idea that the instincts of devouring isn't always just eating, but its protecting and more of a possessive kind of emotion to keep another safe.

and i wish we learned more about that. watching the episode with Peach and Sheila its like she talks about how there's a struggle to embrace her "protective" instinct and ya know be herself and stuff. So its like. clear they have this, and its difficult for carnivores to really understand or even express

its super interesting tbh and im just yells externally i wish i could explore this more but i have 50 different things on my mind

[rainingincale]

Thats it! I'm tired of this grandpa!

Pls do not read beyond the cut if you do not want spoilers for Rick Riordans Books, mainly percy jackson and the kane chronicles thnx xoxo

For context, I'm in the middle of The Son of Neptune which is the second book in the Heroes of Olympus series.

So far I have read The OG Percy Jackson series, The Kane Chronicles, The Lost Hero (Book 1 in HoO) and some of the extra side books. I have basically been trying to read everything roughly in chronological order.

Anyways! I'm just very pissed because I went into this endeavour of reading all these books because people RAVE about how much they love Percy Jackson and I was like ok I would like to understand what this is about.

So I read the Percy Jackson Series, and I really liked it! I do think if i was younger I would have enjoyed it more but I could definitely see why people enjoyed it. Its got the cool adventure, the jokes and the friendship.

Then. I read the Kane Chronicles. And by Jove. I wanted to love the books. Because while I liked Percy Jackson, most of the characters were white you know? And thats not the Worst thing. But the Kane Chronicles had the extra bit of diversity that I had kind of been missing (I could go into a huge rant about this but im just going to leave it at that, if anyone truly wants to hear more about it feel free to ask but this post isnt about that). Anyways! So I started optimistically, I liked the style of writing, I liked the Egyptian mythology, i really liked the characters! Especially that the main two were a sibling duo. I thought it was super fun. But the thing that genuinely sucked ALL the joy out of the series for me. Was the romance with Sadie, who starts the series being 12 and turns 13 in the second book, having a romance??? With??? A 16 (16!!!????) year old?????????????? It honestly made me hate the books, I couldnt enjoy them once that storyline started going (which mainly started in the second book and theres only 3 in the first place so 😐)

Anyways, I ended up semi-skim reading by the last book. I liked the plot mostly but the romance genuinely made me just want to get the book over and done with I hated it.

And then! I got onto Heroes of Olympus! (I Actually read The Lost Hero before the Kane chronicles because Chronology but anyways) So I start these books, and from what Little i know of the series, These books are the reason everyone loves Rick Riordans books so much. So i was excited! All I knew going into it was that people really like these books and that this is where Nico Di Angelo is featured a bit more (tbh thats more of an assumption, I just know people Really like him and while he was cool in the OG Percy Jackson books he was hardly there).

So here innocent little me goes, I read the Lost Hero and I loved it! I loved the characters, Piper, Jason and especially! Leo ❤️❤️❤️🥺🥺🥺 It was super funny and I enjoyed the storyline a lot. I literally could feel straight away why people would love this series.

And now. I'm reading Son Of Neptune. And it started strong. But why the FUCK!!!! Am I getting ANOTHER potentional (which is probably going to fucking happen from past experience) ROMANCE between a 13 AND A SIXTEEN YEAR OLD!!!!!!! Like what actually goes on in someones brain for them to think that this is normal and fucking alright!!! And why!!! Have I never seen anything about it mentioned before!!!! I have so many bones to pick with Mr Riordan and anyone that has ever recommended these books because like dudgdhshdh I hate it!!!

Im back to basically just trying to read this as fast as possible now because I just seriously cant be fucked with a weird fucking age gap like that, its just totally unnecessary and the story would've made just as much sense if their ages matched. I will probably still finish the books because Ive come this bloody far but I'm so fucking pissed. If anyone would like to console me feel free djdvcjd I have lost months of my life reading these books 🤣😭

[spoiler warning: mahoraga] jjk, word vomit ━━ behind the scenes

apology in advance because this isn’t organized at all. i just wanted to word vomit.

ok, so i was rewriting good thoughts, good words, good deeds because i really want to achieve this ending, yeah? and we all know jjk is heavy on buddhism (ex: gojō satoru’s parallels with buddha, etc.), so i did some research about buddhism in a way that parallels my ocs.

lots of things happened in my process of creating a reasonable cursed technique, then i realized while designing the ‘curse’: oh, this is kind of like mahoraga, huh. so we all know that mahoraga is based off of on one of the twelve heavenly generals of buddhism (十二神将, jūni shinshō), makora (摩虎羅大将, makora taishō).

but then, i thought: isn’t makora’s zodiac a monkey... and then it sunk in—mahoraga. right. so, mahoraga is, in layman’s terms, somewhat of the equivalent of a naga in the sense that they are part-snake. the mythology gets more complicated but the point is that this.

mahoraga’s full name is the eight-handled sword divergent sila divine general mahoraga (八握剣異戒神将魔虚羅, yatsuka-no-tsurugi ikaishinshō makora) according to the wiki page. and if you squint and look at mahoraga’s features, you can see that mahoraga possesses one of the ten scared treasures, specifically the sword, yatsuka-no-tsurugi (八握剣). you can see the eightfold wheel on its head too which is one of the oldest symbols of buddhism and something many of you may be familiar with.

the point is that after rereading the whole mahoraga debacle, sukuna said this:

as someone who knows a lot more about shintōism than buddhism (i’m sorry, papa, rip to you) this made me SCREAM because some of you may remember my theory about tengen being based off of on myōken bosatsu (妙見菩薩) or also known as ‘exalted star king’ (尊星王, sonsē-ō), the deitification of the north star. we know that tengen started the spread of buddhism in japan which is why he has a cult following him around, and that cult literally has star all over their name and has a ‘star vessel’ thing going on.

according to the wiki, tengen started the spread of buddhism around the nara period and the whole sorcerer thing. the worship of myōken in japan started around the 7th century (nara period), and this somewhat started the onmyōji, equivalent of the sorcerers during the heian period. (we also know that the gojō clan and okkotsu yūta’s ancestors is abe-no-sēmē, literally the most well-known onmyōji aside from his kamo master/mentor.)

(note: at this point, i took a break from this word vomit and i have no idea where i was going with the shintōism thing so let’s ignore that.)

but as i was saying, the point is that there must be a reason why the yamata-no-orochi was mentioned because the yamata-no-orochi is from shintōism, was slayed by susanō-no-mikoto who is a shintō god. is this the same thing with tamamo-no-mae being a cursed spirit (i had a whole spiel about it here; same link as before)? but anyway—

the ten sacred treasures, which mahoraga was using, has the ability to grant wishes, even as far as bringing someone back from the dead. here’s a link with some comparisons of megumi’s shikigami with the ten sacred treasures: link. so sukuna is definitely just using megumi to revive himself. that’s it 😟‼️ that’s the whole ‘gotta keep you alive schtick’ and ‘interesting’.

it’s been an hour since i wrote this...

and this is so disorganized. i wanted to delve into the shintōism / buddhism in jjk too + the ten sacred treasures in depth + sukuna lore. this is so disorganized 💀 i just wanted to do some research for my fic but then, this happened.

if you want a more organized version of this / specific things about jjk lore you’d like to ask about or specifics concerning the ten sacred treasures + megumi’s cursed technique, i don’t mind doing some research! i’m going back to school next month so milk out my free time, please.

...i should also make a tag for this lore-delving stuff...

(@2bosoos ) one of my most creative moots and one of the most creative ppl on the entire platform tbh so ofc i'd pick min, the most creative member of mx!! i think he'd LOVE to see her stuff be it her cool sets or listen to her big-brained-bebe theories the most!!! she's also rlly supportive of cc's here nd in her tags she's v energetic idk i think it would be a cool dynamic :'')

kihyun: okay maybe this is a bit of an..odd one maybe im completely wrong i think amy (@minhyukie ) & him could be friends?? imo he's the member that has the most of his shit together/lh & he always wants to help (he's the most active in the fc i think, he always has advice!) & miss amy always seems ready to help too!!! ive talked to mädch abt this lol but there have been times where she's asked for cc help & before i can type smth amys already there!!! i feel like ki isnt always patient lol but he can learn from her (that mx masterlist hello? that probably took FOREVER) & idk i think he can be someone to help her out for a change he'd be a rlly supportive friend :'')

hyungwon: maybe a lil unexpected but im gonna say rae!!! (@wonhoseokkie ) ik rae leads a busy life & wonnie is all abt taking his time ('it's okay to go slow' and all that), but theres a method to my madness here!!! i think he'd be a great listener, & he always seems to know what to say at all times; he's so thoughtful so i think he could offer her advice if she needed it. also i love it when rae comes into my inbox to rant or rave abt anything & everything so ik he'd listen to that too 😁💖

jooheon: okay mädch (@kyunsies ) paired me w/ joo & tbh this is just a ploy so that we can all be besties together <3 fkdjfjsj no but she & honey have this way of being friends (and great friends at that!) w/ a whole lot of different ppl nd personalities??? so i think they'd hit it off easily <3 also i feel like mädch & i never run out of things to talk abt i think it would be the same w/ him!!! :D theyre both loyal friends and i just know he'd always be supportive & quell any worries or doubts she may have abt things <3

changkyun: kyun was the most difficult to match idrk why..i think i'll say bee (@sohcean ) :o!!! hyungkyun are alike to me in that they always seem to know just what to say, & in their thoughtfulness, and bee is just that!!!!! they both write the most beautiful letters and while u know it's from the heart u also know that every word is painstakingly chosen..i think they'd bounce ideas off each other beautifully!!!! everything that kyun nd bee write are also v. comforting?? so i'd rlly hope they could be a comfort to each other !!!! :'')

@ any of u feel free to tell me why im wrong <3

but yeah like i am a little bit insane im a ranting and raving lunatic im eccentric but im trying to do it in a god honoring way that makes people laugh and feel more okay with their own crazy thoughts tbh and if im having like a lot of dark thoughts and posting them i also try to post the resolutions and epiphanies that came from them so im not just putting more negativity out there ya know lol

[galentines]

hi here is my insane post with all my feelings about lover. i’m kind of a fair weather taylor fan tbh, but have pretty consistently enjoyed her music since red. i went to the rep tour and honESTLY what a good time. and i am here to tell you that lover fucks, HARD.

this is in lowercase bc its more ranting/raving than anything

first of all TAYLOR SWIFT KNOWS HOW TO DO A BRIDGE RIGHT like i always always think about the out of the woods bridge and there are so many bridges on this album with that vibe and i am iNTO IT ok now song by song

i forgot that you existed - within two notes of this song i knew i was fucked, that beat and melody is SO CATCHY. it makes me want to prance down the street while snapping my fingers. the way the lyrics work with the melody is just YES. this is such a good album opener, it literally got me so excited for the album when most of the already released songs hardly left an impression on me

cruel summer - how was this not the first or second single? THIS COULD HAVE BEEN THE SONG OF THE SUMMER. i don’t think me OR you need to calm down were amazing songs - they were known for their music videos. but cruel summer has that huge dreamy synth chorus that is just PERFECT SONG OF THE SUMMER FODDER. and the bridge! and the lyric I LOVE YOU AINT THAT THE WORST THING YOU EVER HEARD gkserhgkj

lover - this song married old taylor with current taylor so well that it gives me goosebumps. this song is perfect. i would marry this song in a sunny church while surrounded by daisies. i would take care of this song if it got sick - i would bring it soup and tuck it into bed. and then i would FRET ABOUT WHEN IT WOULD GET BETTER. this song makes me do that smile lady gaga does in that one scene of a star is born. also another EXCEPTIONAL BRIDGE. i love love love love this song so much. jfc. 

^ me @ lover

the man - this song is super fun and catchy and it made my mom exclaim “YOU KNOW WHAT SHE’S RIGHT!” 

the archer - when she first released this song i thought it was so damn boring, but i feel like i somehow completely missed that growing beat underneath the lyrics?? and now i’m obsessed with how that swells and gives the feeling that the song is about to explode into this huge production number but then IT DOESNT DO THAT which is so rad. it feels like she is legit experimenting on this album rather than just trying on a new persona, which rep did feel like at times. 

i think he knows - THIS SONG IS SO FUNKY. THE FUNK OF THAT CHORUS!! GOTDAMN. 

miss americana & the heartbreak kid - this is some LORDE SHIT!! the minor key! the high school lyrics! oh we love this. the cheerleader O!K! is so great. this is just a COOL TUNE.

paper rings - this song immediately made me emotional bc it sounds like it could be on red. its like if stay stay stay and holy ground had a baby. it’s so much fun that it makes my heart swell. its pure joy and i say YES.

cornelia street - this song gives me mega 1989 vibes and i dig it. I DIG THIS SONG i said casually in the car

death by a thousand cuts - i would die for this song. i would die for the choral intro. i would die for that guitar during the chorus. and i would MURDER FOR THIS BRIDGE. this bridge fucks so hard. didnt know a bridge could fuck like out of the woods but doctors she did it. GIVE TAYLOR HER WINE BACK YOU MONSTER

london boy - this song is fun, and also its fine

soon you’ll get better - I WASNT READY. I DIDNT KNOW!! I CANT BELIEVE NATALIE MAINES HERSELF DIDNT WRITE THIS. we as a country truly failed the dixie chicks and taylor is here to AGREE. but also this song makes me want to curl up in a ball and never emerge from my bed ever again. i love it.

false god - idk i’m trying but this sounds like a mall song (you know, whatever is faintly in the background when you’re digging through a display at forever 21) and i cant get into the sax but I RESPECT THAT SHE IS TRYING NEW THINGS

you need to calm down - i still hate this 

afterglow - i cant remember a single thing about this song and i’ve listened to it more than once

me - sure

its nice to have a friend - this is the weirdest shit taylor has ever done and im obsessed. i want to wrap this song around me like a blanket. i want to bathe in the trumpet solos. i cannot believe this is a song by taylor swift and dare i say it i am PROUD of her. i love this. i love this HARD. oh my god im gonna listen to it again RIGHT NOW

daylight - when i think back, taylor has always been ON HER GAME with album closers. we love the callback to red. this song makes me go, aw she is happy and thats nice for her! its pretty and a nice ending.

lol what a mess since i’ve been back in hk.. like seriously how can so much happen in just a little over 48 hours...

this feels like the only safe space that i can resort to rn so i’ll do all my ranting and internalizing here

so i got back on the 17th and it was going to be an amazing day (and for the most part it was) i got to see my best friend Deanna and we decided to go clubbing that night (probably shouldve thought it through since i arrived that morning) but i was hyped because i didn’t really let loose in sussex and my other friend Kelly was also in town so we all wanted to go out tgt... so i went HARD. like i chugged so much vodka and long island ice teas in a span of an hour and when we got to the club i honestly can’t rmb much. My friend’s brother had a table so we got into the club free and it was gonna be great, we got in at 12-1, but at 1:30 JUST HALF AN HOUR IN my friend was like dude your bag is open. I LOOKED DOWN AND MY PHONE WAS GONE. I STARTED PANICKING because i was so drunk, didn’t rmb bits of my night already and i was trying so hard to recount where i last used it etc

so i went on a search that WHOLE NIGHT to try and find my phone. it felt like a fking rave in that club like there were so many people and i just rmb legit pushing people out of the way and searching the entire dance floor lol. i also went into the toilet and this black girl thought i was cutting the line and i was tryna explain to her i was just gonna go into the cubicle for a sec to check if my phone was there, she wasn’t listening and grabbed my shoulder and I SHOVED HER SO HARD and we almost got into a fight but my best friend pulled us apart. (ok the adrenaline felt really nice but after sobering up i can’t believe i became so aggressive under the influence of alcohol)

so for the rest of the night my friends were trying to help me, everyone looked so concerned and i felt like i just ruined the night for everyone. i started HEAVY CRYING and obviously your emotions are heightened w alcohol and i started bringing up other stuff that was bothering me - and i guess one big thing was how legit i came back from sussex wishing at least my mom was home but she left for some buddhist retreat thing so im all alone. my dad’s not here and tbh i don’t even know if i can rely on him for this kind of stuff. my brother’s all the way in new york working. i felt so alone and lost, like all my friends have family at least to care for them but i felt like i didn’t. so everything just came out and i felt like such a huge burden to my friends. i think i might have even went around saying to ppl how my parents were separated, pouring my whole sob story EVEN THO some of u guys may know that like legit none of my high school friends know that about my family and for years and years that was my deepest insecurity. so for me to just say it to anyone makes me feel like utter shit but i cant exactly rmb...

my best friend’s boyfriend was so patient with me, him and Deanna kept going back to the club with me to check “one last time” even though it was probably the 50th time. Some helped contact the manager of the club and even asked for the lost and found. Oh forgot to mention i ALSO LOST MY KEYS??? but thank god it was in the lost and found. i think what happened was there was a thief that night because some other ppl lost their phones/wallets too. and the thief probably grabbed whatever they could from my bag and didn’t need the keys so dropped it on the ground. 

anyways thats not the point, the point was i’ve never felt so sad in my life. like after sobering up yesterday i hung out w some people and they were telling me how much of a mess i was. and like deanna was saying how kelly was PISSED and like when i started crying and shifted my emotions from making it about losing my phone to my parents she said “not this again, its always about her parents” and when i heard that, i think my heart legit broke lol. it’s so hurtful to think that i was such a burden and that some of my friends were annoyed with me. makes me feel even worse about myself, and i felt like my problems weren’t real problems or I was being “repetitive”. apparently i was also like “touchy” like grabbing my best friends bf’s hand and this other guys hand but I HONESTLY didnt have that intention at all i only did in the club when i was going backt o search for my phone so we’d all stay together and not get lost. fuck it just sucks to hear all of this the next day and i feel so ashamed of myself and legit i just want to retreat back into a hole and erase these past 48 hours. 

[seonfhwa]

you said no one asks you about your biases so klj;alkdjfs here I am because also love when people talk about their biases!!! name your top five biases luna and why they are your biases

oh my god mini you’re enabling me ehrbjhgbek okay here we go look away folks this is gonna get annoying

edit: so i went back and slapped everything under the cut because oh my god i kept talking im so annoying

1. cha hakyeon/n of vixx

this man hits everything i love about a human being. he’s very motherly and very open about such things, he’s a true sassy diva who always wants the attention on him (i don’t blame him), he has a really big heart and always does things like donating to charity and the like, he has seen SO MANY ups and downs since vixx debuted in 2011 and honestly?? he deserves the world. he’s a really hard working leader who goes to all of his members solo activities to cheer them on and make sure they know he’s there supporting them. i have never seen anyone as beautiful and ethereal as cha hakyeon in my entire life. he’d be a wonderful dad, a perfect husband, and a caring friend. he’s loving, kind, and affectionate, and he’s the sweetest bean. though he gets bullied the most by everyone else. honestly, too, i know we don’t really know most idols’ sexuality but cha hakyeon imo is one of the strongest icons in terms of exploring sexuality and shattering gender expectations and i can’t wait for him to slay some more when he gets out of the military. also?? dancing king?? like pls stomp on me i love you. literally he’s just… his duality… he’s so soft and gentle as hakyeon but as n, he’s a fiery demon ready to go. either way he’s my number one and he will always be my number one and nothing will ever change that.

2. no minwoo of boyfriend

so honestly, boyfriend really is my #1 group ever, but with the lack of content for the past year or so (after star they disappeared again into japan) it’s been really hard :(( so lack of content causes me to ult different groups during hard times but!! yeah. minwoo is my tsundere baby, my maknae on top, my bratty baby boy. he’s the quiet one of boyfriend who kinda just wants to kill everyone and he’s donghyun’s Baby and no one (not even jeongmin) can touch him hejhegbre he’s honestly one of my biggest sources of sunshine. he’s honestly where my type started (dancer rapper) and i love him!! so much. he’s a talented little bean, who’s super great with what’s given to him and his dancing is no joke!! i hope he can capitalize on that one day. also!! he’s a part of 95 line (jo twins, him, ricky of teen top, sungjae of btob, hyuk of vixx, and i think a couple others idk) and i literally love that friend group so much ;;;; minwoo is honestly the #1 prettiest baby boy ever, he’s got so much love pent up inside of him but being the bratty tsun introvert he is, he doesn’t know how to show it so he just hbjehbrgj suffers. but that’s why he has mama donghyun to take care of him, idk man starship is just shitting on the talent they have, pls let boyfriend out of the korean basement.

3. song mingi of ateez (duh) putting my own gif of mingi bc its my fave gif

and here she goes, gonna rant and rave forever. okay so mingi, right? you all probably already know this but he’s literally the biggest and best source of sunshine and happiness in the whole wide world. literally when i first got into ateez i was like hongjoong!! he’s my bias!! and then idk what happened i accidentally floated around for so long and it wasn’t long after say my name that i was officially attacked by mingi and i claimed him, he is my sunshine and my everything. i really thought seonghwa would end up my bias if not hongjoong but then mingi came around with his full-body laugh. i honestly figured out mingi was my bias when i was making my original blog and i was like?? softmingis?? that works!! rather than any other url (though idk i did try a couple of san urls). ever since i solidified mingi as my bias, i’ve found countless things about him that i love. his seal claps when he tosses his whole body as he laughs, his deep af voice, how th*cc he is, the way he interacts with all of the members– honestly i love this whole big baby boy with every fiber of my being. one day i wanna hold his hand and see his smile and (it wont happen ever but) give him just a lil smoochie on the cheek. honestly, he’s just ;;; so perfect. he may be a year younger than me but idc he’s the most lovely human bean i’ve ever seen ;;;; i wanna give him the world.

4. kim hosung/lou of vav

listen it took me a while to get here and it’s a struggle to stay here as a lou biased bean (yes ace i’m looking at you) but honestly ;;; i’m kinda sorta maybe in l*ve with this man. he’s a whole softie even though normally i’d look at someone like him and go “wow he looks really intimidating” but like?? he’s a big softie! like he’s all tall and deep voiced but he’s (another) introverted bubs. he’s all mysterious tbh like he’s so boring he wears all black and white and gray clothing if he’s not in stage outfits ekrhbejgh but he’s like!! a cutie. he loves his girl group dances and he can be super quiet at times and really grumpy but like?? he’s so handsome. he’s a confident chaotic gay and we love our very own confident gays. idk man he’s literally so gorgeous just look at that gif up there– okay not to mention he’s such a salty guy like never tell him someone else is your bias he’ll be all pouty pouty grumble grumble. really he needs to be babied but he’s probably the best boyfriend material he’d be so sweet ;;;; idk man like?? i honestly think about him every night he deserves the world and he may not be the most loud and obnoxious person in vav (that’s ziu) but he’s the most charming and i love him to death ;;;

5. kim jaejoong of jyj

other than gd of big bang, i think?? jaejoong is my longest-running bias. he’s had my heart and soul for so long. other than being the king of japan while sm still has him under dumb laws, he’s done so much for me as a human being. he’s really shaped how i look at the world, truly. i remember there was a fansign he had where a blind girl came to him and said that she loved him, not for his looks (although he is gorgeous) but for his music, his lyrics, and his voice. and honestly watching him go through so much over the years, watching him be shaped by all good and bad things, has made me so happy. he’s grown as a person, he’s learned from mistakes and he’s had to walk down rough roads to get to where he is now. honestly someone asked me recently who my role model is and i think?? after some honest thinking? i’d have to say it’s him. i look up to him. i admire him, everything he’s done for everyone in his life and for himself. he’s a strong man. i love him, and i want to give him everything i can, even though i can hardly even provide for myself. he can be a grumpy old man at times but i think that’s just the relatable shit, you know? he’s a grumpy old man while a heart of gold and i owe him my life, especially because 5 or 6 years ago i was in a really bad slump and it was him, his music, that pulled me out of it.

okay so now that i’ve talked so much and took so long to answer this… the end! literally there are so many more people i could ramble about but those were the top 5 that came to mind who are always super prominent in my head like… aLWAYS 

also if you read all of this… you guys are insane idk how you did it.
