#im kinda neutral on this topic tbh

[real-fire-emblem-takes]

whenever I hear somebody complain about open reclassing all I can think of is that one doom tweet:

“You control what buttons you press.”

[the-moon-files]

So I have tried to request this prompt from someone else but I don't think their blog is that active anymore. If your willing I'd love to request the following.

Prompt: Reader is bisexual and gender neutral.

Reader is considered fairly attractive and gets flirted with pretty often by basically whoever gender wise. And maybe reader and Zelda even end up flirting a little bit. Reader would have a similar lackadaisical flirty personality as Warriors has.

I wanted to see how each of The Chain would react to this with the context of them having secret feelings for the reader.

2nd official request, woo look at me go 🏃💨

Sun: Gender-neutral Reader (”you”/they/them)

Orbit: Headcanons-ish

Stars: Zelda (Assuming they meant BOTW), + the classic Chain of Links <3

Comets & Meteors: Content Warnings: mild cussing, mild typical loz violence, Mildly Suggestive, & Trigger Warnings: none known.

Please comment if I missed any. /gen

so i like to think that modern flirting is radically different than their medieval flirting,

like mayyybbeee Wild can handle it, but even then, they have royalty/knights still, so hes still gettin flustered lol

and i like to think u learned that difference the first time Wars complimented ur new/strange modern fit, and u returned the energy?? except 10x stronger (to them)??

youve played the player, and beat him at his own game, the Captain of the knights is sputtering and shit LMAO

(he said smth like, “their beauty is god-like in this otherworldly clothing“ and YOU said smth like he’d “thank you, youd look better in my bed than in armor 👉 😎 👉 ” lmao)

funniest part is, bc its so natural, i can see u immediately shooting off smth and forgetting it instantly, much to the Links collective shock 😭

u go to towns and notice theres always 1 hero around to steer u away from shopkeepers, townsppl, etc so u wont flirt w/them LMAO

(when u finally notice, u just, “ohh i get it now, so im only allowed to flirt with someone named Link, ohhh, okayy” and they just, “NO we didnt say that-!” “No its just their bold flirtations are not for the weak of heart-!” “Yes.” “CAPTAIN-”)

the only one who they cant steer u away from is Zelda.

afterall, they kinda have to inform the Princess/now Queen of the kingdom, whats going on w/them traveling with Link (Wild) around time and space

the sheikah tablet had been disconnecting + reconnecting to Purah’s both fascination and worry

so as theyre invited to eat dinner and explain in the rebuilding castle, everyone’s absorbed in shadow talk or smth, and u can see Zelda’s struggling to follow along, u just casually bring it back to her, as she’s also trying to write notes and theyve moved on too quickly w/o her

“wowww, all these men and not a single one’s gonna offer the lady any, ‘hi, hello, how is the most beautiful girl in the world today?’ “

and the gapingggg from the links shut them right up, while Zelda goes all pink and coughs, and agrees that they should move on to more chill topics lol

and u can crack anybody tbh, Zelda giggles at ur compliments all the time, even in work mode, u can deffo get Wars to blush to his ears, and even Time to look away first in a flirty + staring contest lol

Legend might actually put his hands up like he’s prepared to fight u anytime u try to flirt at him when its just you two, before he realizes what hes doing and stops LMAO

oh and u absolutely get a lot of mileage out of that one lol

the best reactions have gotta be, in order of most to least extreme: Hyrule, Sky, Wild, Four, Legend, Twilight, Wars, Time

Rulie, Sky, Wild and Four fall into that classic, shocked-heart-eyes, full blush up to their pointy ears, etc category when u get them,

they are also very easy to get lmao

Four is the best at recovery, or ducking away, but if its the Colors, its this type of obvious lol, w/the obvious ones like Red and Blue, Green takes a little more to break, and tbh Vio could go toe-to-toe w/u better than Wars tbh before he crumbles under the pressure lol

Legend, Twi, Wars, and Time faces may not change a lot, bc theyre trying to save it lmao, but the way their cheeks go pink and ears twitch is how u know ur gettting to them (along w/legend’s defensive reaction to getting cornered LMAO)

Twi has caved and covered his face w/his hands before lmao

one day youll get Time to break more than an ear twitch, and looking away, One Day.

(Wind is in fact, having the time of his life, watching you absolutely hilariously wreck these otherwise v serious heroes, hes glad u got them to finally relax a little, but also its hilarious seeing Wars and Legend red faces, and occasionally stealing Wild’s tablet to take funny pics of them all to blackmail later lol)

☆

idk how good that was, as im kinda bust at flirty banter between characters, so i hope this suffices ur need to flirt w/everyone lol

also i feel i should apologize for not rlly including pronouns? it just kinda comes w/writing reader stories to put them in 2nd person to both make intimacy for readers w/their little avatar im controlling for them, and to purposefully remove the need for gendered pronouns :/

so im sorry i couldnt quite figure out how to make it where “they/them” got used much, i promise i love all pronouns, its just a skill issue tbh lmao

btw

send any prayers, blessings, or good vibes u got my way tomorrow bc im getting wisdom teeth surgery and i am intimidated✨

ill post more asks (i have multiple asks!! <33) after im lying in bed lamenting my painful fate,

mostly just worried ill react badly to the drugs, also the idea of being knocked out during surgery is a little scary so what can i say

have a great weekend guys!! thanks for reading if u did :)

Peace out,

Poor Perry dysphoria sucks

How did Perry handle realizing he'd start growing in to the wrong gender? And did he take any gender affirming medication and if so when?

(I tried using neutral words cuz I know when others would ask me those kind of questions sometimes there wording made me feel a little off) ♡♡

Ty for the question, and your sensitivity! 🫶💕

Perry doesn’t start T until his early 30’s, actually! (No im not projecting leave me lone) his whispy goatee is as thick as his facial hair ever gets, but he’s pretty happy with the other effects, and continues to take supplements until all he and Iris’ kids are grown (tho he does have to take a break for his pregnancy with the twins, but he is SO GOOD with being pregnant only once in his life, and the rest of their kids are adopted 😂)

How did Perry handle Puberty tho? (Which I’m assuming is what u meant) Short answer: BADLY. 🙃

(Discussion of puberty and teenage stuff below- Plus gender dysphoria and internalized transphobia 😔 but also a PerrIris mini-fic! :D …about Perry having dysphoria ☠️)

But first here’s a doodle of Iris acting as a weighted blanket/heating pad combo to help Perry with cramps lol- (he realized too late where his face was gonna end up and is fighting the urge to panic and run away lmfaooo- YES he still sometimes sprints the opposite direction when Perry flusters him, despite that now being his WHOLE boyfriend 😂)

Carlo did his BEST to warn his son what was coming, and gently encouraged him to potentially seek out puberty blockers, but Perry didn’t like the idea of the side effects, so he took his time mulling over the potential pros and cons.

…Then he started puberty crazy early and it was too late ☠️

Carlo MAY have forgotten to warn Perry that he also started pretty early, but throughout the next few years coaches Perry through the strange changes as best he can, but Perry is VOLATILE from like 13-14, both from dysphoria and just hormones in general. Not to mention the fact that he gets TERRIBLE period cramps- perhaps oversold by his tendency to whine and be dramatic, but regardless, the poor boy is SUFFERING 😭😭

Perry pretty much wears the same “dysphoria hoodie” for ALL of middle school, only finally dipping a toe into other fashion with the encouragement of his boyfriend their freshman year!

They start dating around 15 I think, helping each other through the awkward, awful time that is puberty, but the dynamic up until the confession is basically just Perry drowning in self loathing like “who could ever find a man like ME attractive…” meanwhile his Best friend is standing 5 feet away and his internal monologue is just “PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE JUST ONE CHANCE, JUST ONE, HES SO HOT IM GONNA KMS”

Iris struggles with his own changes too of course, but does NOT feel cheated for being AMAB after witnessing his bf experience just how awful the OTHER kind of puberty is… but! He does his best to be a good and supportive boyfriend uwu 💕

Oh actually, here’s a minific I did a while ago about the topic of Perry’s dysphoria and Iris comforting him! Tbh I have a couple of these just kinda… lying around lmfao 😂😂

DRABBLE START

Teen Iris is chilling on his bed, brainstorming his next tattoos with an ink pen while talking to himself

“I definitely want knuckle tattoos, but there are SO many good four letter words! Most swear words have four letters! All the good ones, anyway… what do you think?”

(In a different voice)

“Ooh, how about “evil” and “hate?”

Teen Perry SHREIKS from his open window across the street, startling Iris mid- ink-pen tattoo

Iris sprints over and bangs on the door- Wendy answers him

“Um, hi, Iris sweetie- now’s not a good time, Perry’s really upset…”

“Yeah, I HEARD from across the street!!”

Iris LEANS past Wendy, shouting up the stairs

“Perry! It’s me! What happened!!”

Iris can clearly hear peri crying, and Carlo’s voice comforting him, though he can’t make out the words

“Aw, He’s okay, honey- he probably just… doesn’t wanna talk about it right now? I’m sure he’s grateful to have such a caring boyfriend, but… just- give him a minute to calm down, okay?”

Wendy smiles awkwardly, patting Iris on the shoulder and closing the door, but Iris just huffs, heading straight for the tree in the side yard he knows quite well.

He scrambles up the trunk with practiced ease, hiding among the branches and squinting through the window, where He sees Carlo giving Perry a hug, before standing up-

“It’s going to be okay, Per- whenever you’re ready, I’ll help you pick out a binder, okay?”

“Oh… okay…” Perry sniffs miserably

“CARLO! I uh! can you come here a minute?” Wendy’s voice calls from downstairs

“Huh- oh! One second, Perry-Bear- I love you and I understand you!” Carlo walks out, but pauses

“Door open or closed, little Man?”

Wendy calls from downstairs again- “oh, better close it honey, give them- I mean- give our boy some privacy!”

Carlo nods and blows Perry a kiss- Perry chuckles weakly, and Carlo shuts the door

Iris waits for Carlo to leave, then climbs through the window to find Perry crying

“PERRY!”

Perry JUMPS, but his face quickly melts into a smile of relief

“I-Iris…”

“What happened! Who do I need to KILL!!”

Perry stands abruptly from his bed, eyes full of tears

“LOO-HOO-HOOK!!” He SOBS, lifting his shirt unexpectedly

Iris recoils, whole face turning red as he covers his eyes and looks away, which just makes Perry cry HARDER-

“Don’t do THA-HA-HAAAT!! Ohhh my god, my life is OVER!!”

Perry collapses to the ground and curls up into a miserable ball

“AH! I’m sorry! They startled- I mean YOU- YOU STARTLED ME!!” Iris flounders, kneeling down in front of his boyfriend

Perrys back is against his bed, and he’s starting to rock back and fourth, stimming frantically to try and calm himself

“I can’t believe it, Im never going to be able to be shirtless in public again! I’ll have to start wearing baggy clothes- and- and BINDING, and- they’re only going to get WORSE- I- FUCK! poof! Poof poof!!”

Iris recoils as Perry starts YANKING on his own hair- something he only did during BAD overloads-

“Perry! Perry calm down, you’re spiraling!!”

“DONT TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!!”

Iris looks hurt, pulling his outstretched hand back- Perry almost never yelled at him, and he seems unsure how to react

“I… I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to yell… I guess I… I always knew this day would come, I just… hoped it wouldn’t be so soon…. “

Perry wraps his arms around his knees, his face scrunches with anger

“I just feel so! So BETRAYED! By my own body!… that… probably sounds stupid…”

Iris pauses for a moment, then cautiously says “no, I… I think I understand…”

Perry raises an eyebrow, but doesn’t say anything. Iris takes a seat on the floor next to him, sighing a bit, before continuing-

“Do you… remember our date to the mall on Saturday?”

Perry chuckled weakly “the one where you got BOTH of us perma-banned from all Shake shacks worldwide?”

Iris coughs, laughing awkwardly- “yes, ah- thats the one…” he looks away hesitantly- “i, um, originally wanted to surprise you by- um… showing up as Angel…”

Perry lifts his head at the name, looking at his boyfriend curiously

“Oh… it’s, um- been a while since I’ve seen her…” Perry says quietly, waiting for Iris to respond, but when he doesn’t, Perry asks “…why didn’t you?”

Iris sighs, and turns to look at his boyfriend- “well, I actually DID go through all the trouble of putting an outfit together, coordinating my makeup and what have you, which was FUN, but, um… when I looked in the mirror, I realized…” Iris looks Perry in the eyes, just for a moment-

“I don’t, ah… “pass” anymore… even after shaving…”

There’s a heavy silence of understanding in the room, before Perry sighs miserably, muttering- “I guess that makes two of us.”

Perry places his forehead against his knees, curling tightly in on himself, and Iris startles when he hears him begin to sniffle and hiccup again.

“Perry…”

Iris places a Cautious hand on his knee, waiting to see his reaction- perry starts, but doesn’t move, so Iris reaches his other hand out to try and coax Perry to look up.

Iris strokes a hand against his boyfriends damp cheek, but Perry resists, pressing his knees harder against his face

“Cotton puff… look at me, Darling…”

Perry still doesn’t move

“… please?” Iris adds, as gently as he could muster

Perry finally lets his neck go limp, letting Iris tilt his chin up, but giving a miserable, dramatic pout when he meets Iris’ gaze

“I’m disgusting…. I…. I feel like a monster…” Perry whimpers

Iris smiles softly, whispering

“Perry… you wanna know what I think you are?”

“Overreacting?” Perry sighs, rolling his eyes

Iris shakes his head, leaning in to press thier foreheads together

“You are… the most beautiful man in this, or any other universe.”

Outside the door, Perry’s parents snoop conspicuously, talking in hushed voices

“Aww, see, Carlo? He knew just what to say to calm our little man down” Wendy coos happily

“Yeah, okay, but I still don’t like when he climbs through the window…” Carlo mutters

who in skz has the most playful energy or the easiest to connect to in order and what is something u think each member needs to work more on like in shadow work?

For the first is rank it like this:

Chan - both playful and easiest to connect to

I.N - easy to connect to, not necessarily playful but very lighthearted and easy energy

(Those were the only one's which energy feels playful)

Felix - not necessarily easy to connect to since his energy and views(?) are very simple and 1 dimensional so often theres not much to pick on, or theres SOOO much at once he doesn't even know what to answer and often doesn't really answer the question im asking but something else, i think just because he isn't too sure of his own thoughts and feelings himself. Though there aren't any barriers when trying to access or reach him. Not necessarily playful either but his energy is very simple and often positive and just..idk he seems content and neutral, but positively leaning.

Seungmin - his energy isn't playful at all, but he's very easy to connect to. Like really easy, he knows what he wants, what he likes, he understands himself and his surroundings and situations very well and has a good head on his shoulders. Gives just enough energy & information for me to work with and is very clear and to the point.

Han - he's pretty neutral. Not playful. Sometimes kinda dark and confused energy. Sometimes not. Connecting to his energy isn't too hard, but also not too easy. And reading it is sometimes also a bit challenging...actually lots of the time its challenging i think out if all the members he's the most difficult for me to read for. I just can't read his energy very well because its really chaotic and unsure and it feels like he's trying to lie or something idk how to explain it, but deciphering his messages is kinda hard. Like he has something to hide.

Lee Know - he's almost the same but a tad bit easier going. Not playful, but has a lighter energy. Connecting to it is not hard but he doesn't gush it all out either. Its just very balanced. When it comes to deciphering his messages tho its a bit more difficult as it also feels like im not reading their authentic energy but something thats been thought about and rehearsed and i always feel like theres more and im like seeing some messages and hints etc, but they aren't coherent and don't connect to each other. Just like as with han's...

Hyunjin - has a gloomy energy. Tbh i don't really like reading on him as he just feels really heavy, sticky and unpleasant to be around (energetically). If i could describe his energy with one word i would use "limbo" or "labyrinth". Very dark, gloomy, damp, unsure, hopeless etc. And its not triggered by anything specific thats just his natural inner vibe. He's very watery - makes sense after all he's a pisces and has (if im not mistaken) watery, dark nakshatras as well. His energy is easy to connect to and read tho. So thats that. He's pretty open and doesn't try to hide anything he just openly presents his energy, sometimes it even feels like he does it so openly in hopes he gets help or guidance from somewhere to help him decide or make up his mind. If i had to chose a card to describe him it would be 2 of Swords.

Changbin - the darkest, deepest member with the thickest walls and most hesitation. Once he opens up tho he starts gushing out and his energy is EXTREMELY detailed and if i "let him" he would ramble on and on and jump to many different topics that are somehow connected together and if his reading were a visual thing it would look like a tree or mindmap. His readings would be PAGES long, as he has so so mich to say. He has an opinion on everything, explanation for everything, comments about everything and he truly loves to talk, he has a very active mind and a very deep heart and he just really lacks space in his life where he could express all that. I fear the people around him, as loving as they are, just aren't as deep as him so he can never have a truly satisfying conversation up to his standards, and music is or was his only outlet but he faces LOTS of restrictions from the company which kind of takes his only outlet away, forcing him to keep to himself and bottle it all up. And with the others, most of the time i have to write it all "by myself", which is not the case for changbin. Most of the time, when reading for him i feel like he talks through me, like im genuinely channeling his energy at the moment and one thing comes after the other and i can't type fast enough to express everything thats comming to mind when connected to him. Sooo yeah idk how to label him exactly. Very, very hard to connect to - takes always the longest to shuffle his cards, and the to sit with them and get familiar and slooooowly and gently enter his energy - but once im in its overwhelming (in the best way). Goofy and playful not really - but very friendly. As dark and deep and even sometimes scary, his energy feels like, he's really friendly and feels very safe being in his energy. I love reading most for him💗 then for I.n and then probably for chan. When reading for chan tbh it feels like im talking with one of the girlies and we're just giggling and spilling some tea😂

About your question with the shadow work, Im not too sure yet if i should do individual readings or group readings. So I'll just add it to the masterlist for now and think about it a bit. Maybe I'll do individual readings for the members that really need it (like chan, hyunjin, changbin etc) and for the rest ill do a group reading that doesnt go as much into detail.

hey someone i follow has been posting stuff about transadrophobia/transmisandry and i get that the concept itself is wrong due to the nature of intersecting opression but there were some valid points made. for example how trans men are treated as neither men nor women depending on the context, such as in the case of male on male violence where they are seen as valid targets but then denied due to percived femininity. (there was some other stuff but i cant recall it right now)

do you have any advice (other than just to block them). im bad at nuanced analysis and could use some help. i want to be able to understand if what was being described was regular transphobia or an actual unique form of opression

-a transfem confused about the current situation

(p.s. sorry if this is impossible to read im quite stressed as this person is one of my favourite users and i want to have a nuanced perspective of the topic)

"how trans men are treated as neither men or women" is literally ripped right out of literature about transmisogyny. Trans women are seen as a lesser other that is neither men or women. Like, if they want to talk about that point fine but it's literally a concept that's existed and talked about for trans women for over a decade. So that would at least be "transphobia" and not "transandrophobia," because it's not remotely specific to their experience.

I'm not getting into a point by point with this, cuz I don't want to be involved in this stuff. But transandrophobia was coined by a dude who literally talked about getting off to lesbians being correctively raped and consistently was very lesbophobic. Nothorses cites literal terfs in his renditions of how "baeddels ruined the LGBT" (baeddels never had a strong following a died out years ago, the idea baeddels still exist is bullshit perpetuated by transphobes/transmisogynists/kiwifarms esque types, it's the mean bad tranny Boogeyman ("what do you mean Boogeyman is misgendering??? It's gender neutral!")).

At the end of the day, transandrophobia shit is terf propaganda with a few instances of real actual transphobia transmascs experience sprinkled in. I don't care about these dudes talking about their experiences, I honestly kinda don't care even if they have a specific term for it, but "transmisandry" was primarily used by racist mras and "transandrophobia" is a terf ideology.

These people are just talking about transphobia. They want some special term because they think "transmisogyny" is some special cool thing trans women get to have, they don't actually see it as an intersection of two oppressive axes. They're usually not well read about transmisogyny and don't actually know anything about it.

As for talking to this person. Idk. Could just approach it that the word transphobia already exists and that the first point I mentioned is literally a thing transfems go through. Tbh w you I wouldn't know what to do if my friends start posting that bigoted garbage.

[funishment-time]

on the topic of peoples' opinions on dr characters, ive noticed that theres a large difference in whether a character is widely loved or widely hated depending on A. the age group and B. when they got into dr to begin with

im a pre-2020 dr fan, but im also a mentally ill teenager (as i was when i first got into dr) and tend to love a lot of the same characters as other teen dr fans do. but these same characters are always hated by the older dr fans and ESPECIALLY a lot of lets players... key example: any of the antags. its mostly a nagito and kokichi phenomenon but it happens with byakuya sometimes too. its also strangely common for some adult lets players who play through dr to not like the protags that much? which breaks my heart tbh (thinking of nonjakuma bullying shuichi for being a doormat and game grumps finding hajime annoying specifically when i say that)

idk, its just an interesting and kinda silly trend ive noticed

i can see that re: the age groups. i am a Much Older Person who got into DR as a Much Older Person so i am a huge outlier in most of the demographics, i think.

however, i do love our protags. shuichi and hajime are very relatable, makoto is adorable, and kaede and komaru are The Girls of All Time. it's def sad when people don't like them, because they are the lens thru which you're viewing the DR world. neutral? sure, i can see that. but not liking them is a Bummerino.

[justsomerandomplanet]

[ jjk 261 spoilers ]

just rambling thoughts about the chapter now that ive Actually read it (thank u tcb and also i wish ppl who post about leaks without tags a very can you Stop and tag thanks)

tldr; i dont hate the chapter, its an interesting one! feel free to discuss with me if u would like

I don't actually hate the chapter conceptually

Ideologically, Uraume has brought up the topic of being human and the fact to be strong/to defeat sukuna you must disregard that obsession of loneliness/humanity. I also think at the end of the day, it speaks a lot about how jujutsu society functions (in that it uses people regardless of respecting them as people, i.e. the star plasma vessels, children as sorcerers facing death constantly, etcetc).

Nevertheless, I do wonder why Yuta had to do it. At the end of the day I still believe Yuji will be the one to defeat Sukuna, you cannot tell me all that build up to him is for Nothing, but what point is there in bringing Yuta in that case? If he just does more damage and then dies (lol), like. What is there to it. Like in the perspective of the characters i get it, they don't know if they'll win or lose and they're gonna have to use every option they have, but simply on a readers perspective, it feels a bit redundant. I just feel there should be a way to incorporate this idea without it feeling like we'll get gojo v sukuna 2.0. Idk i just want yuji to beat sukuna like that first page was so cool :(!!!!

Anyway, the idea of bringing back Gojo similar to how "Toji" was revived in shibuya is also unbelievable bc Gojo himself is shown to still want to protect the kids. His ideology derives from making sure They Are Alive And Changing The System. Yes, I get it he is battle obsessed too (see the shinjuku battle) but it doesn't change he went out of his way to tell them not to look/follow him for what he's about to do with the higher ups. Theory wise, gojo being brought back like this is dull (but plausible i suppose) (also thinking about it would that Really be gojo? We saw that toji still didnt come back normal, and wasnt it stated that the toji that did come back was more of just the memories of the body rather than the person himself? Idk. Anyway)

Additionally, Yuta, altho caring for Gojo, is still falling back to the mentality that made Gojo alone (the "Strongest" vs Gojo Satoru). Yuta himself wanting to sacrifice his humanity so everything Gojo did wouldn't be moot while still using his body, which inherently disrespects him as a person, is a hyprocritical and flawed way of thinking that makes him interesting for me now lmao. He cares for him a lot, but he has to resort to it as a means to an end. Also I don't care if he dies, in fact the idea of him living while still in gojo is just weird tbh so i really dont see a way put of that? Im kinda just interested to see what happens tbh

I'll be real; I can see both points in how ppl think this is a cool chapter vs ppl thinking it sucks. It is surprising how very Neutral I am on this bc I personally feel like the explanations given made sense to me in the chapter.

I don't think this took away from Yuta's character, nor did it take away from what we've seen before; Yuta is not Yuuji. Yuta has shown that he can kill people. He only sparred Uro and Ryu bc of the rule to be able to transfer points. He admits that he "cheated" in the past month. Yuta is very aware of what decisions are wrong but still does them bc its for the best outcome, even if it means losing his own humanity. Yuta wants the best for Gojo but still looks at it in a flawed way. Yuta is unknowingly falling into Sukuna's/Uraume's ideology.

Yuuji is the only one so far in the series that continues to be filled with regret from killing and still wants to do better. He is forced to dissociate his self-identity to cope with his actions. He has said he would eat anything to defeat Sukuna, effectively throwing his humanity, but does not do so at the expense of other ppl (see Yuji's conversation with Higuruma before shinjuku). Yuji looked past Gojo's infinity so he could give encouragement, even tho everyone else was afraid. Yuji is the antithesis to Sukuna's view of the world

Yuta is not Yuji, and I think that's the point.

I don't think one is better than the other, I simply find this contrast to be interesting when u look at it in the grander theme of change and tradition within jujutsu society.

[decepti-thots]

for so long I have felt like a weirdo for thinking that the jro pregnancy stuff is deeply unhorny. but I am going to say it now: it's only horny in the way that the alien franchise is horny: there are definitely people who are horny about it, but it's primarily about the non-sexy aspects of pregnancy. i get that it's a funny joke but a non-insignificant people genuinely act like it's "the writer's barely disguised fetish". birth is weird and scary and fascinating, even more so in robots. im probably more defensive about this than I should be but it's kind of upsetting to me that this is where the discussion always ends

I'll put this under a cut so as not to spam anyone's dash bc yeah I went off on this ask haha (positive).

I actually felt so insane about this very topic I ran a damn poll on my NSFW sideblog and the thing is: the majority of folks voting agreed no, it's not inherently, textually horny. (I would know; I know horny when I see it, ffs!) Which vindicated me! Because I agree it's so ridiculous a thing to unironically, sincerely insist is super horny, given the text, lmao.

Like, it's extremely obsessed with pregnancy, but this is not the same as 'a fetish', and tbqh I think the 'fetish' joke just shields any actually interesting discussion of what it's doing. I think the Alien comparison here is actually really telling; it's absolutely a visceral thing, a thing concerned with the body and how it functions, sometimes against our will. And it's not unconnected to sexuality or eroticism in how those things are discussed more broadly, in the sense it's talking about a thing that intersects with those elements in the abstract, but it's not. Like. It's not a "fetish" thing, and if the characters it involved weren't referred to as 'he' in text I think less people would be calling it that, and actually it kinda sucks that every time I bring it up I have to block people who see 'pregnancy mentioned' on my completely sfw posts as an excuse to go off on their personal fetishes in detail, or their desire to speculate on the imagined fetishes of the writer in equally graphic detail. (BTW, it's genuinely uncomfortable seeing people obsessively speculate on the imagined fetishes of a creator, I think. We should all do that a little less in public.)

I mean not to be a total killjoy or anything but like... treating pregnancy in itself, even in the most abstract way, as inherently fetishistic and inappropriate (the people reblogging my innocuous posts about pregnancy metaphors with fucking trigger warnings! 'mpreg trigger warning' being a normalized way to tag pictures that are just Trans Dude Who Is Pregnant!) is uh. I mean we live in a world where pregnant people are often massively marginalized by society period, and seen as somehow inappropriate for public life, and especially anyone who is remotely GNC. Like the idea that something is inherently obscene about a pregnant person is, shall we say, not apolitical. It is in fact a thing that people actually have to fight against in real life. I mean. Fandom doing this to a text that in fact is most notable for treating pregnancy weirdly neutrally in these terms is... frustrating! I think we all lose out when we refuse to engage with weird, funny texts that have things to say about these topics that fall outside our expected frameworks, like, say, 'this is A Fetish TM'. That's limiting! If we want to talk about what IDW1 phase two does with gender, we cannot do that properly if every time we talk about MTMTE we get weird about it doing sexless genderfree pregnancy metaphors, and instead make them funny mpreg jokes, tbh! IDK! Seems counter intuitive! And I genuinely think MTMTE/LL's bizarre approach to the thing is so interesting precisely because it's so odd and offputting. What if we actually examined it. I think we can find some good stuff in there, frankly.

And truly the especially frustrating thing is that the comic itself, for all it is objectively weird and hilarious and 'why the fuck is this even HERE' about it... is just never that. Like. I posted those excerpts because it IS weird and it IS wild and it IS quite funny in its way! It's alien robot body horror in a kids' cartoon franchise turned to an unexpected end! But you know what it actually manages, somehow, to never be? One: weird and misogynist about pregnancy. Two: weird and transphobic about it involving vaguely, ostensibly 'male' characters. Make all the mpreg jokes you want I guess, but MTMTE is many bizarre things but it never gives one single shit about the gender binary, and tbh I think it's genuinely kind of embarrassing the fandom saw a comic that did insane robot body horror pregnancy shit and was like. Okay well. But the mpreg tho.

Like. I've joked for years that I want to do a transmasc read of the pregnancy stuff Roberts did in TF seriously, same as I think a transmasc read of how Alien presents fears around "male pregnancy" in a trans context would be great. And for all my jokes, I genuinely would, actually. I think it's legit very interesting how Roberts manages to divorce the presentation of horror of pregnancy from gender in a way that mitigates the gendered subtext somewhat and gets at the loss of autonomy in a broader sense.

anyway it truly sucks that fandom is so fucking shitty about this. to give a little extra context, i talk about a particular transmasc humanformer AU sometimes that involves pregnancy and. i have had to Delete Some Fucking Asks about that thing, which. well that happens in normal regular real life and people talk about it like a fanfic trope (derogatory). so. i am a little sensitive to people getting Like This about the topic, aha.

sorry i went off on one anon, can you tell. i also find this frustrating. i relate. i am totally with you. god it would be so much less interesting to read it as horny so like, why is this the ONLY MODE we seem to have tbh

[goosewriting]

yesterday i finally watched the new tmnt movie!! at first i wanted to do a live reaction kinda thing, except that wouldn’t work because i'd have to reblog every entry and hiding every single part under a "read more" would be not only tedious, but i'm not even sure if it's possible lol

so instead have a collection of my thoughts here! (spoiler warning, duh)

first of all: the art style. there’s something strangely nostalgic about it. it feels like that is what my mental storyboards as a kid would have looked like, had i been into animating back then. or at least that would have been close to the style i would have liked to emulate.

the explosions looking like violent scribbles is just so 😩🤌♥ chef's kiss, truly. there's something about the art in general that just moves in such a particular way and holds a certain weight and volume,, it feels like cardboard and clay and crayons and the piles upon piles of coloured pencils i used to have as a kid and how the wooden pencil drawer smelled. i'm such a fan of this style i’M obsessed o(-<

in the intro shots for the turtles, raph licking his sai blades is so extra and i love him for that lmao

for some reason i completely forgot they cast jackie chan as splinter and tbh idk how to feel about it? no hate towards him; i just don't think voice acting is his strong suit

meanwhile i'm looooving mikey's voice. also leo's beacuse, well first of all, i am a leo girlie (gender neutral) through and through so i would have loved all aspects of him no matter what. but his voice actor is gumball's i believe? and that's one of my comfort shows 🥺 i just love him sm

this little donnie is sending me, i- 🤣

superfly's theme reminds me of miguel's for some reason? 😂 and i'm here for it ahahh

the whole watermelon scene lmaoo teeangers being teenagers, finally

aaaand here comes the probably forced romance subplot 😅😅 (more on that later)

the whole fighting scene in the workshop tinted in red? ugh 10/10

ok so, april: i really like how they met. i like her design, her voice and her whole vibe. the whole puking jokes were a little too much for me; personally im not a fan of fart or puke jokes because, well, i’m not a 12yo boy (looking at you seth rogen) but all in all i really liked this rendition of april. it sucks tho that the turtles got a snazzy outfit by the end, both for school and for prom, but april’s clothes always remained the same. would have loved to see what she wore to prom!

the gen z lingo and references: …i mean, i guess it makes sense? i just don’t know how well it will age xD the references to end game and all were fun but, again, will someone in 15 years understand what they meant? will someone in 15 years know what rizz is?

changing the topic, the way eyeballs are rendered??? hello?? they’re so expressive and shiny and i lowkey wanna lick them ok

the chris pine cutout actually made me choke on my food from both surprise and laughter jhdfkjashdf

oookay so. superfly and his gang. first of all when the gecko talked i went like hey is that ant-man? lmao i love all the designs and ice cube as the villain works?? im not mad?? lol now, his plan however... sigh, my guy. killing all humans aside, have you maybe thought that if you turn every single animal and insect into a mutant, the whole ecosystem would all but collapse? there will be no planet left to belittle the humans on (:

"he'll run out of cars eventually" / *looks at parking* / “oh, c’mon!” lmaoo 😂 this joke was excellent

so, back to the forced romance thing. look i get it, they needed a reason to help out april to get the plot going. and if leo said it, then the rest would follow. i get that. but throughout the whole movie, aside from like his brothers elbowing his side knowingly, there’s no more allusion to anything? and then only at the veeeery end, he asks her out and she says yes, so i was like “oh okay so that’s the payoff then. took long enough” but then when they’re dancing she rhetorically asks if they’re just doing this as friends and 😐 maybe this is just my aroace self projecting but,, if you’re gonna use romance/romantic interest as a catalyst (lame tbh), at least be consequent about it?? if you (the writers) didn’t have the intention to explore the relationship, then leave it altogether? again, this is just my aroace opinion,, i can’t relate so i don’t understand. (which i know seems contradictory given my uh, repertoire of fics lmao) personally i would have preferred a different reason for them to helping out april, and having them all just be besties by the end, which they ended up being anyway

so, to sum it all up. it’s a story we’ve seen a hundred times, so there was really nothing new to it. the plot was okay,, the biggest thing that “bothered” me was superfly’s whole extermination thing making no sense, technically. but other than that, my eyes and ears were having an absolute feast. a very enjoyable film all in all. when we got rottmnt, i was like “oh finally an iteration of the teenage mutant ninja turtles where they’re actually teenagers” but scratch that. mutant mayhem is the most teenager one, and i loved them for that. time will tell how the jokes will age but yeah, the way they were depicted was definitely my favourite thing about the film aside from the art style.

have you guys seen it? what are your thoughts? lemme know :D feel free to comment here or send in some asks!

Hey hopefully it’s not too late to chime in on the grad school topic (no need to reply if it is!!)

I’m just a year younger than you, and my entire life I also planned to go and get a master’s and eventually a PhD. I think now that it was for gender reasons since “Dr” is a gender neutral prefix… but about halfway through my undergrad I had a huge crisis bc I don’t really like anything enough to want to study it further. I still got the degree, but now I’m just taking a gap year to try different things out and see where life takes me. I think maybe I’ll want to do a masters, and maybe I won’t, but both are okay options as long as I’m enjoying life :’)

I don’t think you really need to find a career you’re super passionate about or anything either, for me at least I’m definitely leaning towards “a job that gives me enough money for the life I want and that I don’t suck at”

Anyway if you’d like a song recommendation in this trying time, I’ve recently discovered Alanis Morissette’s “hand in my pocket” and it’s helping :D “and what it all comes down to, is that I haven’t got it figured out just yet, but I’ve got one hand in my pocket, and the other one is giving a peace sign~”

Take good care!!

irt my existential crisis yesterday

hi anon!! it's not too late and hhh i really appreciate this ask :'3

im really glad youre enjoying life right now, and the more i think about it the more i realize that really that should be like, my overall goal, even if it's a simple yet sometimes nebulous goal. i dont even know what makes me (existentially) happy!!! im happy just vibing through life with minimal stresses ;-;

youre super right about the career thing tbh. i think because of my upbringing, im kinda stuck in that mindset of "you have to eventually get to your Dream Job, your Passion, to Truly Get Your Life Together" and needless to say, having a goalpost set up that high is not stellar for my general brainscape.

i really resonate with “a job that gives me enough money for the life I want and that I don’t suck at” because right now thats how i feel about my current job! i dont hate it, though im not in love with it, but it gives me the money i need to buy my meds and pay my cat's vet bills and sometimes i can treat myself to tot merch every once in a while. maybe it's okay to just....idle here. im not sure i have it in me to be a Successful(TM) person. i wanna go somewhere good with my life but i also just wanna have a nice time....is it possible to have both??? probably. i just dont know how to do that yet. i hope i'll figure it out

thank you for the reassurance, and i wish you well too ;w;

[ryuatewater]

hey little rant here or something sorry delete this ask if u wanna im not gonna care <:3

i really wish that i had a gender neutral body the only thing i like about being a girl or a she/her is the comfort in the pronouns nothing else. like. the old stereotype that women are just meant to have kids (and its still here with certain people) is the exact opposite of what i want. i dont want kids. i dont want romance. i dont live to have sex, to reproduce, to kiss a boyfriend/girlfriend/partner, to romantically or sexually love. i just live to (PLATONICALLY) love my friends and best friends and draw my gay little objects i dont want kids at all. in fact i really dont like younger kids. its kind of hypocritacle since i hate their crying when i myself am really sensitive and cry?? except i havent cried in a while just tear up and then hold my breath because my brother was in the other room and i dont want anyone to know im about to cry. and the tearing up is good like one of my friends was nice to me also another thing thats off topic i feel so happy when one of my friends are like "oh yeah i like that you did this" or "i like when you do this" bcuz i know how to make them happy and also when they respect my boundaries and when they actually listen to what i told them like i told one of my friends uhh lets call themmmm uhhh idk charlie she likes heartstopper and i think one of the characters is named charlie anyways so i told charlie and bubblez and maybe one other person that when im crying i prefer to be asked "do you want to be left alone" instead of "omga ru okay [zee]?!?!" and one time i was crying and this girl mya was like "ru okay!??!?!? come on you can tell me [zee]ie-poo!!!" and im not even friends with her why was she calling me that tho tbh i found it kind of funny? and charlie was motioning at her to stop and it made me feel really happy because my friend was tyring to get others to respect my boundaries and one time bubblez told me that they like to be around me when she cries bcuz i ask "do you want to be left alone? do you want to talk about it? do you want me to try and guess whats wrong?" and that made me feel really happy and also bubblez was crying at lunch (idk why) and friend #1 and friend #2 were both like "omga [bubblez] ru okay?!?! whats wrong??" and i just kinda reached over the table and tapped on his shoulder and was like "do u wanna be left alone?" and i think they either nodded or said yes and when i sat back down inki said "whats wrong?" and i just said to leave bubblez alone for now and i like kind of using what i like for other people like doing what makes me comfortable for other people

OH MY GOLLY IM SO SORRY FOR SUCH A LONG RANT/RAMBLE/WHATEVER THIS IS DELETE IT IF YOU WANNA DONT READ THROUGH IT IF YOU AWNNA IM SO SORRY I JUST GOT CARRIED AWAY

yeha sorry ly /p

Is ok, ramble, do what you want forever

[jacaerysgf]

tgc being so charming and making Aegon seem like he’s going to be a loving enough father bc of what he experienced w Viserys OK I see the vision not me becoming team neutral / team FUCK VISERYS

in all seriousness I fear that he rly is a product of his environment it does make me a bit sad… not excusing the obvious assault we’ve seen in season one but I have to think he’s so drunk all the time that he doesn’t even realize he’s doing it / is so fucked that had he been given like a singular hug he just might have been different ik everyone is beefing w the show writing but I kinda fw it

TGC’S POWER IS UNMATCHED its so hard not to fall in love with him. ive always been a fuck everyone except the ppl i like tbh and i only rlly dont like a few ppl im rlly just here for the fun of it

im not gonna touch on the aegon thing cause its such a sensitive topic but everyone is so mad abt them trying to make aegon like able but he has to be able to be rooted for for their to be this conflict they’re trying to create within the fandom even if its not true to the book plus when the fuck has the show ever followed the book i get it’s upsetting but at the end of the day the show is its own canon

i think the changes are interesting and adds a different layer to the show and as much as im kind of dreading it im looking forward to the season

[mithliya]

Tbh I have been reading the discussion around the whole “neutrality around sex with men” topic and you changed my mind. I’m a lesbian, I have dated two men in the past (casually for a couple weeks each time when I was in my late teens and early 20s), and had sex with each of them once. I used to identify as bi and when I finally realised I was a lesbian and people would ask me about when I dated men id say stuff like “oh it was fine but it wasn’t for me. I just didn’t like it” etc. I thought that I was “neutral” about the sex because I did it of my own free will and wasn’t pressured into it, and I didn’t think it was traumatic at the time or anything. But I was very drunk both times, I wasn’t aroused at all or attracted to my partners, it hurt and I wanted it to stop, but was too embarrassed to say anything so I powered through. I kinda just lay there and let them fuck me and tried to touch them as little as possible, I’m sure they thought I was boring and selfish in bed or whatever. I felt sick afterwards.

I’ve realised now that this wasn’t actually neutrality, and afterwards I would feel terrified and disgusted when men would express sexual interest in me, despite my still not knowing I was a lesbian yet.

I’m not taking a side on this topic because I don’t want to discount anyone else’s experiences but I wanted to thank you for helping me clarify this for myself. Those were bad experiences and I didn’t like them - I fully agree that a lot of confusion results from women in general downplaying sexual trauma or bad sex with men, to the point where I thought my experiences were normal and OSA often felt this way too (maybe they do! But for me it was BECAUSE I am lesbian). You saying that all that stuff isn’t actually neutrality made something click in my head.

this has been what ive found to be true for every lesbian who described having sexual experiences w men as neutral!! which is why i believe what i do. many gay ppl want to seem more nonchalant about it and come across more open-minded and ~fluid~ etc but in actuality when u talk about it more, it becomes clear that it wasn’t as “eh it was whatever just not for me” as they try to present it. i hope ur ok now anon and im glad that it at least didn’t full on traumatise u ❤️

[wooahaes]

writing thoughts ig

i think whenever i write my fics, i usually do try to like... ask myself what kind of story i want to tell and what kind of like... reader/mc i would use to tell that story? i think most of the time i try to go gender-neutral with my mcs so that people can project onto them.

like... under the sun deals with identity, but more in a sense of the way that you define yourself based on past and present experiences. i dont see that as something i need to gender in the slightest. the period comfort vernon fic, acts of service, isnt gendered either--there’s just a warning that reader does have a uterus because.. it’s a period comfort fic. not everyone w periods is female. i could have done the same with one word at a time (dad!wonwoo fic) but i think i projected more onto that one with some thoughts and fears about being a mom one day.

like obviously all my birthday fics from this year are gendered because i wrote them specifically for my birthday. i didnt have to, but they were mainly for me and i just shared em for funsies.

the flowers fics were all gender-neutral bc idk i think everyone deserves to get flowers + i didnt really have a reason to gender them.

lonely hearts club was specifically me, a chubby woman, writing a fic that doesnt center on a chubby mc and her weight + me wanting to write a chubby woman being actively pined for and loved bc of who she is as a person. no weird caveats based on weight. both tiger strips + beach body are also chubby!fem!reader because the fat experience does differ depending on the way you present yourself.  people who are perceived as women tend to get a lot more shit when it comes to the idea of “making up” for being fat. people who get perceived as men will get shit, too, but its usually in a different vein. i won’t go too much into it, but there’s a reason why i gender my chubby!reader fics and it is primarily bc of that difference.

i think while i do prefer and try to write fics where the reader is inclusive, sometimes i want to write a story for people like me tbh? even if people don’t always read them (lhc has very low interaction on it, specifically--so does beach body, but tiger stripes has decent engagement compared to them), i still think its important to write fics for people like me ig? i like making people happy.

i also like proving you can write a fic catered more toward fat ppl without making the entire plot “i hate my body sooo much im so ugly and fat no one will ever like me because im not skinny :(” and having the love interest go “babe ur pretty” and have that fix all their issues. self esteem can absolutely be a topic of conversation because i was talking with some friends the other day about the way weight gets handled in media (mainly on the topic of weight loss) and fatphobia itself. we kinda talked about a (shitty, according to a lot of ppl) anime adaptation of something where one character gets called fat and proceeds to essentially starve himself + overexercise until hes skinny and then he gets to be happy and confident and “earn” a friend. or media where a characters weight is constantly made fun of the entire time, even if they lose it--it’s constantly used to degrade them or for cheap laughs.

i think the topic of self esteem could be fully approached in writing in general. its not an issue exclusive to fat people, sure, but i think people forget that hating yourself wont just go away because one person loves you--especially if it goes deep. it gets tiring to read chubby!reader fics when so many of them feature a reader who is also depressed and hates themself, especially when it’s just waved away when reader receives love. having supportive people in your life can help, sure, but it doesn’t just... cure it. that’s the shit that happens in badly written romance movies that are definitely written by people who don’t know what it’s like to legit hate yourself and/or the way you look. loving yourself is a hard journey for everyone.

anyway im getting rambley so ill shut up now sdkfhdsf just know i like writing inclusive fic but when i get exclusive its bc thats the way i want to tell a story? lonely hearts club wouldn’t have worked the same way imo had i imagined a skinny reader by default. it would have touched on self-love in a different way + reader’s fears about pursuing ww would have been rooted a little differently. UtS reader outright being a fem!reader would have shifted the dynamic a lot  and probably touched more on how it feels to basically feel being the sole female among a large group of men and also it probably would have looked even more similar to m*ze r*nner. reader wouldn’t have been treated any differently imo but “last 14 ppl on earth who care for one another” is still at the core of it, but it would have definitely maybe pulled away from skinship a bit more to begin with before they’d all kinda go “fuck it, everyone needs physical comfort sometimes, we’ll just stay mindful of whats crossing a line with u” or w/e

[whomstdvelynt]

fuck recreating pogtopia im going on a rant about the silly little block game as a whole.

under the cut if you want to read my ramblings about how much ive thought about minecraft as a whole. deep shit and stuff like that.

because it Will be long.

this is what happens when i see One (1) somewhat meaningful text post about the block game on my dash. i just start Typing.

tl;dr - minecraft has a Lot more going on then i thought lmao.

zoo we mama lets go

so. be warned. i do not know Too Much (i think) about Block Game Lore:tm:, so this is entirely based on my opinions and what i know. feel free to share ur own opinions about stuff or correct me if you think ive gotten something wrong; i will gladly read over it :] /nf

pt. 1) the overworld

- okay so. first of all, someone was definitely in the world before you. there Had to have been

- there's temples and abandond mineshafts and strongholds and whatever you call those ruins you find in the ocean (bc i think those are kinda related to the ocean temples, but not entirely, bc you can find them Far Away from temples. so :/)

- those aren't really things that just Pop Up out of nowhere. someone had to have built them

- on the topic of ocean monuments and the ruins that means that there was definitely some flooding that went down and considering you can find icebergs and shit floating around. smh even block game has global warming lmao

- there also had to have been someone to sail the shipwrecks you can find around the world, otherwise they would be there

- the world itself also seems pretty empty. i think in bedrock (not sure about java. i think its only bedrock) you can find a tree that's fallen down. that either means that its fallen down due to wind or something, or someone cut it down, thus going back to the The Had To Have Been Someone Before You point

- but like. the forests are pretty intact. if you go into a cave, you can find plenty of reasources that haven't been used.

- so maybe whoever was there before you wasnt there long enough to use too many materials?

- there's also abandonded villages, altho you can sometimes find zombie villagers there, so that was probably a pillager raid or maybe a hoard of zombies attacked. L to the villagers lmao

- ^^ or maybe someone that wasnt either of them raided the village and left it without resources?

pt. 2) the nether

- literal hell. i dont have much to say about the nether (except maybe with the ruined portals, pigmen/piglins, and bastions. maybe fortesses. actually wait maybe there is a bit i can say about it lmao), but i hate the nether. oh my god it sucks.

- anyway

- bastions are obviously a piglin thing. considering that you can always find a group of them in a bastion (and they're considerably stronger than normal piglins) (and i also think i saw another post a while ago talking about piglins and bastions and something about netherite too) i'd say that at some point piglins knew how to build bastions.

- maybe not anymore, considering most bastions that i recall seeing are pretty run down and stuff. so maybe they dont have the materials? or they just dont know how to repair/build them anymore.

- with nether fortesses, there are parts of them that seem to have broken off, so there's that. i dont have much to say about them tbh.

- withers. hwo the hell did those come to exist??? fuckin. three headed monster whos projectiles give you a withering effect. what. and then there's wither skeletons? What.

- with ruined portals, you can find those in both the nether and the overworld, so at one point, there had to have been a way that people were openly able to travel between the two realms

- theres also the achievement "an uneasy alliance" where you Rescue a ghast from the nether (apparently ghast also become neutral mobs when taken to the overworld. i haven't tested that myself tho so im just going off google), bring it safely Home to the overworld, and then you kill it. there is a lot to unpack there holy shit.

- so that means that ghasts are from the overworld? how did they get to the nether then? im assuming that the nether must be like. Inherently Evil or something if a ghast will attack you in the nether but not in the overworld

- i think there's something about how piglins and zombified piglins respond to each other but i cant remember that off the top of my head right now lmao

pt. 3) the end

- the end i actually dont have much to say about i think.

- there's end cities so those had to pop up somehow. esspecailly if there are floating boats going around. those had to come from somewhere, and someone needed to be able to piolet them (or would it be sail them. idk)

- also what exactly are elytras? theyre obviously wings of the sort, but where do they come from? i know you can use phantom membrane to fix them, so it might have something to do with phantoms?

- and how do ender chests / shulkers work? shuklers i guess are just like backpacks, but why cant you do the same thing with chests? whats so special about shulker boxes that they can hold everything even after you break it?

- ender chests are another thing. like. who came up with the idea to make a way for the transport items from one area to another thru a chest? and it just stays there unless you take it out? some Weird Ass magic shit going on

- also hey what the fuck are up with endermen. they're the only mob to spawn in all three realms and they're Tall As Shit and they dont like eye contact and mysterious as fuck. (so like me with a shitton of extra height lmao)

- not saying anything about the dragon bc the dragon is cool as fuck (pop off queen !! <3) but like. the crystals are kinda a mystery to me. healing source, but only for the giant badass dragon?

pt. 4) Community(s) (haha like the show lmao haha im so funny)

- if you go far enough around a minecraft world, you'll see that there are plenty of communites.

- there's villages in the overworld, bastions and piglin groups in the nether, and then the endermen in the end (shulkers in the end city ig)

- but like. you cant just Insert Yourself into those groups. you as a player just dont fit in.

- you can live near/in a village, but that doesnt really Make You a villager, if you get what im saying?

pt. 5) magic?

- dude there is literally potions and enchantments. as well as zombies and skeletons. you cant look at those and tell me there isnt some kind of magic going on.

- there's witches with the potions, and there's villagers with enchantment books.

- but there's also the igloos with the weird dungeon things under them. someone was obviously experimenting with them.

- and also zombies and skeletons. there had to have been a way to reanimate corspes if they're just walking around lmao

pt. 6) overall - you against the world

- overall, it is pretty much just you against the world.

- you can have pets, but the most they can do for you is kill mobs. they cant give you food, or place water for you to land in so you dont die from fall damage. they're honestly the closest thing you can get to company

- someone had to have been in the world before you; temples and abandonded mineshafts dont just pop up out of nowhere, someone had to have put them there. the same thing with shipwrecks (and possibly the empty villages, depending on your view of those)

- the communites that are around wont really take you in.

- piglins attack you unless you're wearing gold (which is also something you trade with them, all they really want is gold, which is probably what makes them neutral if you're wearing it), and iron golems only bother to do anything to you once you attack it (it likes to give poppies/roses to villagers tho).

- the only interact really that you seem to get from a minecraft world is whenever its trying to kill you. it never seems to try and help you at all.

- whats so different about a player? why is everything suddenly more hostile whenever you come into play?

[pcvensies]

omg i'd pass away if u did dating annabeth hcs omg please and thank u

Dating Annabeth Chase would include...

Kathryn Newton as Annie because: blonde baddas baby angel + i love her... how do u guys feel about that? also GENDER NEUTRAL AS ALWAYS and shorter than i’d like it to be because i have to wake up in 5 hours

its not at first sight at all

she falls in love with you slowly, you are friends before partners

but DAMN if she falls hard for you

she loves reading to you

you’ll be laying on the grass, or on her bed (whoops! careful not to get caught), with your head on her lap as she’s sat up

she doesn’t make voices or anything but she does read each character differently in her own way

if it isnt a story, she explains stuff as she’s reading it, she can’t help it

she ends up getting lost in the topic and has to start again

she also gets distracted by your cute ass face

annabeth has nightmares sometimes, some from when she was little and run away with Thalia and Luke, some about quests, some about Tartarus...

there’s this one where she sees Luke’s death

she wakes you up by knocking at your door, and you open up to annabeth carrying her favorite book

“annie? what’s wrong?” “can you read it to me..? please?”

shes VERY competitive

and stubborn

you two debate a lot, but always with respect

but that one time you and percy tried to convince her that Taylor Swift had sculpted The Moses

she literally RAGED

poor baby

she’s a hand kisses kinda girl

kisses your knuckles a lot

also your cheek

soooo many cheek kisses

comes from behind and kisses your cheek, “hey there babe”

she loves wearing your clothes because they smell like you and it makes her feel safe

would 100% jump in front of a sword for you

would also get pissed off if you did

SO PISSED OFF

“babe im okay—“ “DONT BABE ME, WHAT IN THE TARTARUS WERE YOU THINKING?!”

you and percy get her on her nerves 24/7

but she loves that you two dont fight for her attention

you acknowledge all they’ve been through together and never doubt her

you love their friendship sm

FIELD TRIPS TO SEE COOL ARCHITECTURE

she teaches you so much

like your own tourist guide

she’s always learning something new so you never run out of things to see together

she secretly loves when you give her piggyback rides

and when you braid her hair

cause brushing isnt an option with annabeth’s hair

when you’re sad, she leaves ANYTHING she was doing to comfort you

her dad likes you

and your mortal parent adores her

they sometimes have long ass conversations about adult stuff you don’t understand and annabeth shouldn’t understand

but there they are

you sit her on your lap and just admire her intelligence

she looks so pretty when shes focused

she looks so pretty at all times tbh

shes my baby
