••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Keep Quiet.

•Pairing: bf! minghao x f!reader

•Genre: shameless smut (MDNI), fingering, voyeurism, unprotected sex, dirty talking, angry sex, minimal foreplay, slight degradation, bathroom sex, quick fuck, spit…play? idk i def mentioned the word waaay too often in such a short story lmao, slight angst (well, maybe even more than slight angst)

•Description: one minor fight with your boyfriend has you acting like he doesn’t exist, ignoring him to your best efforts, despite you two being out in public with your friends. minghao knows a great way to make you pay attention to him again.

•Notes: writing this before i even wrote the story and i can already tell it’s gonna be a banger lmao (post writing update: i made it angsty🧍‍♀️ffs i hate whenever im on my period and get all emotional)

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

you nod your head in fake cheerfulness to whatever seungkwan was saying to you, trying your hardest not to let it show that your boyfriend has his hand in your panties and his fingers almost inside your pussy right underneath the table.

it was so stupid, the whole thing-the fight, the words you both said in the heat of anger, the purposeful ignoring on your behalf, and finally the fingering under the table while all of your members are sat there on his behalf.

now that you try to think about it, the details about the whole thing seem to be gone from your head. but that just might be because minghao literally has his fingers inside you.

thankfully, everyone redirects their conversations, leaving you and hao alone for a minute. immediately grabbing his hand, you grit through your teeth in warning.

“take. your hand. out. of my underwear. now.”

minghao just leans in closer to you before he hotly whispers right into your ear “maybe if you weren’t such a little brat earlier, i wouldn’t have to have my hand inside your needy cunt to get your attention.”

you finally look him directly in the eyes for the first time since this morning, eyes burning with fire. if the fire is from anger or from neediness? who knows.

hao smirks at you, but not the kind that you find hot and sexy-the kind that is cocky, the kind that is indirectly telling you “i won”, the kind that is so condescending and outright insulting to your ego.

his fingers spread your folds open, the contact with the cold air making shivers appear all over your skin. his middle finger then gently runs up and down your entrance, your precum already gathering on the tip of his finger simply with that one move. he then uses the same finger to ever so lightly flick your clit, and it feels so good that you have to bite your lip to keep yourself quiet.

hao’s voice distracts you for a moment, his warm breath hitting the shell of your ear as he hotly whispers “if you hate it so much, and if you want me to stop, why are you so wet? hm? why is your slutty little pussy so wet from one little touch? don’t tell me-“ he stops in the name of mockingly chuckling before he continues, “don’t tell me you are into this? getting discovered by them, letting them see just what a slut you are-letting me finger you under the table. poor seungkwan-he probably didn’t even realise that you didn’t pay attention to anything he said, too distracted by being a little whore for my fingers.”

nervously looking around the table, you confirm that no one is paying attention to you two. still, the whole thing makes you feel nervous. as hot as this feels somewhere in the back of your fucked up mind, the idea of you two getting discovered makes you panic and it cuts your enjoyment in half.

almost like he can sense that he’s slowly losing you to your anxieties, he orders you in his deep voice.

“bathroom. now. wait for me there.”

you didn’t have to be told twice.

after a few minutes of nervously walking around the bathroom, you finally hear the door open and close quickly, hao’s expert fingers quickly locking the door, all while his eyes are solely focused on you.

in two big strides, you two meet each other half way, immediately kissing each other messily. you feel his saliva get all over your lips and chin, hands groping your body all over-from squeezing your neck, to squeezing and spanking your ass so hard under the skirt of your dress, you almost end up screaming.

before you know it, he’s quickly walking you towards the sink, hands quickly turning you around before bending you over the cold marble. you gasp at how quickly it all happens, hands slamming against the mirror.

you stare at the reflection, your fucked out face staring right back at you, lips still wet from his kisses, eyes hazy. behind you, you see minghao staring right back at you, hands working on quickly unzipping his pants.

as he’s taking his cock out of his pants, he angrily asks “you don’t want to pay attention to me?” before he’s quickly slamming inside your pussy, the quick movement making your walls burn at the sudden stretch. you moan through a gasp, watching as he bends over as well, his chest coming in contact with your back as he wraps a skill-full hand around your neck.

staring at your eyes through the mirror, he orders you “then don’t. only look at yourself.” before he starts basically hammering his hips into your own.

the pace he sets from the start has you seeing stars, you own eyes focusing on your reflexion in the mirror per his order.

the sight has you blushing-eyes teary, mouth open as moans freely spill out of them, saliva almost dripping out as you don’t have the strength to close them so you can swallow it down.

his hand cutting out basically all the air to your lungs, veins popping out due to the force he has to use.

you want to look at him, you want to look at him so badly, but you know that if you do, that the damage will be fatal for your pussy you. so, you keep on watching yourself, the way your whole body moves from the sheer force of his moves.

his dick is merciless-your walls still trying to get used to his girth while he’s fucking you with quick snaps of hips. the way his thickness is spreading you, better yet-splitting you open is messing with your head. you already know that you will walk funny later, but for now you settle on just letting you two get all the emotions out of your system.

quicker than you’d expect it, hao drops his other hand between your legs to quickly rub your clit. normally, you would be thrilled at this part, but something about how quickly he started doing it, not even 5 minutes of you two fucking, it makes you feel…weird. almost like he’s just trying to make you cum for the sake of you just cumming, not because he actually wants you to feel good and because he cares about your own enjoyment.

you distinctly hear his voice talk hotly in your ear, but you can register what exactly. before you know it, you feel your pussy squeeze around his cock, milking his own orgasm out of him pretty quickly.

the whole thing lasted all but a few minutes, and it feels almost…anticlimactic.

you two stay in your positions for a few seconds, breathing heavily due to the nature of your activities.

but then, before you can even react, you feel his body retreat from your own, quickly dressing himself up and tidying up his appearance.

but most importantly, he didn’t do it.

he didn’t kiss you-your lips or cheek, whatever is closer to him, and he didn’t say it. didn’t say ‘i love you’, like he always did.

something in your stomach drops, shame quickly coming to haunt you.

you immediately get up to your height and start getting dressed, both of you staying silent as you do so.

hao is thinking his words over, lips being bitten as he’s contemplating on how to resolve this problem.

to be honest, he hated this. this whole thing. he didn’t recognise his own actions, the way he acted so heartless towards you…it made him feel sick.

this wasn’t right.

no matter how high your emotions are, he should never stoop so low as to fuck simply out of anger.

he wasn’t supposed to make you feel or think like he hates you through his actions. he was supposed to make you feel loved, and appreciated. at best, he should’ve talked to you about the problem before he did anything of the sexual nature. but he was so desperate to make you look at him, to have you finally pay attention to him, that he didn’t know what to do other than to do what he did.

just as he was about to apologise to you and ask if you wanted to talk this whole situation out, a single sniffle broke out in the otherwise quiet bathroom.

hao’s head immediately snapped to you, panic hitting him like a wave during a storm. in two quick strides, he comes to stand before you only to see you looking down at the floor with tears streaming down your face as your shaky hands tried straightening the wrinkles out.

his hands immediately come to gently hold your cheeks as he asks “love what’s wrong? fuck, i ruined it all, didn’t i? i am so sorry baby, i don’t what came over me, i just thought-“

but before he can continue, you let yourself just fall into his arms, hands grabbing the back of his shirt as you hug him to yourself.

he immediately hugs you right back as he listens to your small sobs escape you, lips kissing the top of your head as countless “i’m sorry’s” slip out of his mouth.

ever so quietly, he hears you say “y-you didn’t say it.”

hao looks puzzled straight ahead of him, softly asking you “said what baby?”

through a broken inhale, you add “you didn’t sa-say ‘i love you’.”

his heart immediately drops from his chest ti the floor, realising that he forgot to say it due to the inner turmoil going on in his mind.

immediately pushing you back a bit, he sincerely yet heartbrokenly says “of course i love you, my love. how could i not? you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. i live to feel your love and to make you feel loved. and i’m so sorry if i ever made you feel otherwise, love.” he pauses for a second as he wipes your tears away, his own having to be blinked away as he looks at your heartbroken expression. “of course i love you. you are my first, greatest and last love. you are the only one for me.”

emotionally due to his words, you immediately prop yourself on tippy toes in the name of kissing him passionately yet slowly.

with no hesitation, minghao kisses you right back.

and with the kiss, you finally get the confirmation.

confirmation that even when you two are facing the troubles, it will always be you and him against the world.

confirmation that no one in this world could love you like he does.

saetoru is talking abt you on her private blog (@/clorindes) yuckkkkk

CW BULLYING, LITERALLY IMMATURE HIGH SCHOOL DRAMA, SUB POSTING.

hi nonnie, thank you for letting me know! since i’m leaving this blog & this platform for the foreseeable future i figured i might aswell get a few things off of my chest before i go. i apologise in advance for the vibes this post will probably bring, the discourse & the posts that will ofcourse follow, but i honestly i am not the first person to be targeted by this creator and i’m sure i won’t be the last considering the amount of creators that have been bullied off of this app by them.

first off i’ve had multiple blogs that would be considered bigger blogs such as @/hvnlydmn, @/atsymu + now this blog which is the biggest of all 3. i think there’s a sort of unspoken responsibility that comes with being a bigger blog which i know is no fun but it’s also because it can be super harmful on a site like this, when people weaponise their following.

on that note i’ll start this post by saying that i’ve known tee for probably around 3/4 years, maybe? we were mutuals on hvnlydmn & atsymu and we continued to talk on discord even when i was off of tumblr. i will honestly admit to this day i have never had a negative interaction with tee to my face and she was genuinely supportive of me during any discourse i was involved in. i am not some angel, i’ve had my fair share of crap on this app (of my own doing) but this post is not meant to come across like “oh she doesn’t like me so i’m calling her out” no. im sorry if this doesn’t line up with my brand and my ‘victim complex’ but i’m not gonna lie down and let someone on a power trip on a hobby app drag me through the mud.

first off i had began to get some off vibes from tee when i had started writing on garoujo, notably when i’d just hit my first milestone which was probably around 1k. during this i had decided to move my instagram theme from my main blog to my writing blog.

i’d noticed tee subposting (on main and on her personal blog which i followed at the time) about someone basically using the same theme as her, which after then clicking onto her blog i realised was an instagram theme. i didn’t think much of it, again me & tee were friends and she hadn’t came to me directly so ignored it. i was still a new blog and trying to solidly an aesthetic (before the beige lol) so i changed my theme / masterlists / layouts a lot.

a few more sub posts later i decided to message tee about it because with every thing i’d change / post on my blog, there always seemed to be another post. so i messaged her and got this response in: (i’ve blurred out my irl name btw) open up pics for convo!

so i let it slide, kept posting & that was that. probably a few days / a week later, tee had soft blocked me which then eventually led to me being hard blocked. i was upset ofcourse because i genuinely considered tee a good friend but i’ve always been a big advocate in controlling your space.

this was when, one of our mutuals in common (the first of many may i add) approached me on discord to say that just like now, i was being ripped to shreds on tee’s personal blog:

again i was notably upset about this because i was being accused of not only copying her theme but also her writing & masterlists, we did have a lot of mutuals in common so it was also upsetting knowing they would all be seeing these posts aswell. i allowed myself one sub post about “creating a narrative” because i was particularly frustrated but tee then also subposted about this, even though she had me blocked?

i would also like to say regarding our mutuals in common that this was not the first or last mutual to approach me regarding tee. i’ve had multiple people tell me that “they’re only mutuals with her because it would be more damaging not to be” “it’s easier to be on her side”. also i am not saying this is okay but i’ve had multiple of her current mutuals send me not only her posts, but screenshots of her private, personal instagram & also tell me about how all of them and their friends had a running joke / theory that tee made up her boyfriend (ex-boyfriend?) for attention.

regarding the accusations from tee i’d like to first comment on the instagram themes, again i had done an instagram theme on my main blog but it seemed to only be an issue when it was on my writing blog that was gaining traction. if the timing was off and it seemed like i copied her, i genuinely have nothing to say except it’s not the case— it’s instagram (which tee already admits she doesn’t own above) also the hanma writing? i’m still not 100% sure which drabbles she was referring to but i can only assume that 1. is when i posted a drabble about hanma fucking you outside of his subordinates house — this was a almost completely word by word rewrite of a suna drabble i done on my old blog @/atsymu i literally just changed the concept to fit tokyo revengers themes. i can post screenshots of this suna drabble also from my google docs dated February when i deactivated. the other one may have been some basic concept about him fucking you against the window.

she also mentions in the very first recent screenshot at the beginning of this post that i have apparently stolen concepts of fics / posts from her mutuals. what i want to say regarding this is, do you believe that i would have made it this far on stolen work? i don’t know any of the mutuals she’s referring to apart from 1 which i’ll get into. but every single accusation i’ve ever received has always come from someone associated or in contact with tee, she has always been at the root of it all but i have yet to receive a single anon or ask about me copying or taking inspiration from anyone’s work.

i know there was apparently a blog and an ex mutual of mine, who i had a lot of respect & time for who was under the impression i’d stolen their concept for this gojo fic. the whole premise of this fic is honestly not uncommon considering how many times people losing control of their techniques / powers / quirks during orgasm has been done in fanfiction. this concept was completely my own, i had originally posted shitposts about him losing control of his technique & also him putting you into a mating press / breeding before i’d decided to smoosh them together into a fic. we all read from the same workbook, we all have the same material to work off of — two people in a fanbase of THOUSANDS having a similar idea is not unheard of.

now onto the masterlist banners. the screenshot on the far left are the comparison photos that tee made herself— i’m sure you’ll be able to see them in better quality when she makes her own post about it; because obviously that’s going to come. first off i will say, i will admit i took inspiration from her official art masterlist banners — i thought hers looked good and i needed a masterlist so i used official art. fair game there although i only kept them for a few days before i changed again.

but onto the grey masterlist banners, i can honestly say i did not even know tee had this masterlist, also the only comparison i myself see is the colour. the only reason i chose grey was because i had started to use a grey / white overlay on my manga panels for my layout (as you can see far right), and as you know— i’ve always kept my colour scheme pretty consistent. on that note, regarding the actual layout of the masterlists— i’ve added screenshots from atsymu (that i could find due to it being deactivated) that shows the layout of my old masterlists, which was what i took inspiration from for my current. although the title font for each heading like headcanons is different, i had used the sort of old style, basic font that everyone uses before i had deactivated so it would match my fic headers i just don’t have photos obviously.

anyway on the back of this there was then discourse over me apparently copying tee’s kinktober masterlist, which again was not the case. but again due to tee’s following i had received multiple death threats into my asks the morning after i posted mine. as far as i was aware, the only similarities were the fact we both used gifs in our headers & the layout listing thirsts, hcs & fics (which is very common during kinktober but i admitted below i could see that similarity). unfortunately during all of this discourse was when ffflowers, my hate blog also came into the mix which then lead to tee reaching out to me in dm’s from her old blog.

the interaction between me & tee was pretty good, again she was nothing but nice to me directly despite the way she obviously spoke about me in private above. but as you can see below, tee herself told me that basically most of the similarities all made above were brushed off as basic. we spoke about the ig themes & i apologised, saying i could understand where she was coming from and that was that. i unblocked her & she unblocked me so i could reblog her post, it’s been that way since.

it is not my place to comment on other people’s experiences on this app but i would need more than 2 hands to list the amount of people that i’m sure have had similar if not worse experiences with tee. i know i have had multiple mutuals who have been bullied off of this platform & had their safe space ripped from them for little things such as: liking a character that this group selfship with, tee and her friends not liking their characterisation. they’ve even went as far as to go through other larger creators notes to check for minors so they can make excuses as to why they’re thriving.

i also know of a blog who was ‘blacklisted’ from tee & her mutuals as they self shipped with arataki itto at the time, one of tee’s friends also did, so they blacklisted this creator and had all of their mutuals block them for this which then in turn drove this creator off the app. there has been other notably bitchy things that i’ve heard but i have no receipts for therefore i don’t see any relevance in starting rumours.

i would also like to say i know plagiarism is a horrible thing, we have all been through it— myself included but it’s got to the point where being accused of copying tee has become a canon event. notably, bigger platforms have been ruined and driven off of this app for little things such as mdni dividers, similar colours schemes etc. and it’s the reason i’m also leaving.

i will say i have met some amazing people through my discourse with tee, notably people who have been in similar situations and i also apologise to any mutuals who we still have in common who are now sort of stuck inbetween. no hard feelings. although to tee: id be careful of the people you trust because it seems the loyalties they have to you are not as sincere as you may believe. you can also go to her personal & read the other things she was saying about me like how she was always so ? at how many people seemed to like me.

so that’s all i have to say, i’m sure dash will get a few responses from this but i’ll be logging out & turning off asks because honestly? couldnt care less. the only thing i’d change about my experience on this app would be i wish i’d blocked tee sooner.

i’d say have a nice day, but instead, have the day you deserve.

— emmie :)

[slimespecter]

i keep thinking about how i never talk about my characters, and decided im gonna change that! keeping any future oc ramblings tumblr exclusive. because i like yall

of course, first up is stanley. gonna start by copy and pasting his info from his toyhouse profile below! (which you can also check out here!)

Name: STANLEY PRESCOTT

He/Him - Age: 25 (Born on August 14, 1982 - His storyverse takes place in the mid-late 2000’s!) - Height: 5’10 ft (178 cm)

Voiceclaim: Keith Murray

Computer technician by day, guitarist and singer by night.

Stanley’s a bit of an aimless adult, just going through the motions - working at his dads computer repair shop part-time, messing around with electronics instead of fixing them - He’s good at his job, after all computers are what he specializes in, but he never realized just how… Boring it would be. Starting a band with his best friend Richie has brought some excitement, and given them a good excuse to constantly hang out and party. Hell, he’ll take any excuse to find some fun in his mind-numbingly boring life.

He still feels some obligation towards helping his dad out, though, and his part-time job helps his band cover costs, so he’ll deal with it till they make their big break. Till then, he’s satisfied playing small shows and is just happy to be hanging around his closest friends. Although… He can't really explain it, but ever since he tried repairing his dad's computer to resell it, he feels like lately his own electronics have been acting rather... Buggy.

Personality:

Stanley can come off as a bit cocky and self-assured, especially when on stage performing for an adoring crowd - what can he say? He loves the attention! But he’s overall a nice, friendly guy. He’s very witty and playful, and a tad sarcastic - he loves bizarre, dry humor and being a facetious ass to his friends. He’s definitely much calmer and pleasant to talk to than he seems - at least, compared to how he acts on stage and around his closer friends. He often shies away from more serious situations if he can help it, he hates confrontation and will avoid directly confronting a situation if he can - which usually leads to shit building up and blowing up in his face. Once pulled into a situation, however, he doesn’t shy away from it - just because he hates confrontation doesn't mean he’s afraid of it, but he’ll try and keep things from blowing waaay out of proportion if possible. He can get very snarky, blunt, and direct when upset - which is very rare, its hard for him to get seriously upset. He’s often called stubborn, as once he’s set his mind on something it can be hard for him to budge on whatever it is. He can also be very irresponsible and impulsive - If it piques his curiosity even the slightest, its easy to drag him along for whatever - he’ll often indulge in his own wants and skirt away from his responsibilities to go out and have fun, go drinking, party, etc. He‘s young, he’s kinda dumb, and he just wants to have fun!

Random Notes:

Ever since he fixed his dads stupid computer (and got shocked when he plugged it in), electronics have started to glitch out, spark, and stop working whenever he’s near for no reason. He has no idea why this happens, and it interferes with his job- and it gets worse whenever he gets worked up, often accidentally shocking himself and the tech around him.

His hair started prematurely graying when he was 18. He owns it though and claims it makes him look cool and mature- although he’d be lying if he said he didn’t feel at least a bit self conscious about it. It goes completely gray by the time he reaches his mid 30s.

Richie’s the one who taught him guitar, and gifted him his first guitar- Rocky, a blue stratocaster. He has a growing collection of guitars that he‘ll switch between, but mainly uses Rocky (his blue strat) and Crash (his green custom-built strat) when performing. He also taught himself to play drums- he isn’t very good at it though.

He‘s a huge nerd when it comes to his equipment - god, don’t even get him started on his collection of guitar pedals or his set up. You wont be able to get him to shut up. Anyways, check out his sweet pedalboard setup - Hey, wait! Where’re ya goin’?

He drives a 2000s Toyota Sienna!

Diet Coke addict. Fuck, he loves the taste of fizzy ultra processed chemicals.

He loves cats! Unfortunately, he is also allergic to cats. Will this stop him from petting any he sees anyways? Absolutely not. Allergies be damned. In fact, he has a cat of his own (named Russel!) He’s also allergic to shellfish and kiwi’s - which he doesn’t like as much.

hi can u do when r enjun is teaching u mandarin pleek and thank u!!! 🫡🫡

LOVE TALK !

summary: i don’t even know the language but i know you’re cursing me.

pairing: idol!reader x idol! Renjun

note: AM I BACK???? OMG LONG TIME NO SEEEEEEEE I HOPE I’M STILL SIGHTLY RELEVANT

“look baby it’s not that hard, adding a tone here is changing the hole sentence” Renjun signaled a point in the huge text he wrote as greeting.

mandarin was known to be one of the most difficult languages to learn or to even understand, and there you were with your little angry chinese man trying to learn.

“i don’t understand why that long? i mean i could have said hi and my name” you were confused and nervous about all the things you should say.

Renjun has told you his mother got so excited and happy about your band announcing the concert held in China that she rushed him to get tickets, and also asked him to attend.

so you wanted to make sure you got your mother in law right onto the pocket.

“i mean, i can’t directly say hi to your mom” you kinda inquired as he continued to chat about how important was the whoooole message, which in perspective was a little—maybe super—formal.

“but is important baby! i already told her im teaching you, she’s gonna end me if you mess up” oh, there was even more pressure, Renjun saw the effects of his latest words and eased his gaze.

“it’s okay love, it doesn’t matter, i will defend both of us…in mandarin” you couldn’t help to laugh as Renjun side-eyed you to see if the gaslight was working, him sighing when realizing it wasn’t.

“i’m sorry, it’s so hard to understand but i’ll keep trying!”

“thank you baby” he smiled with shiny eyes and you couldn’t tell him you haven’t understood a thing ever since you started.

“everything for my baby”

well, the concert introduction wasn’t bad, you mistook a character and said something completely different, Renjun and his mother laughed and your fans made a compilation of you being clumsy.

a win-win situation if you ask me.

[threepoint14art]

hice fichas :3

Things about creatures under the cut because I love to talk, I love to talk.

The first SIX are a group (technically) and I'd already introduced them; The salvaged. But! we changed their designs a little and all that. so im just gonna talk about em again

Belén

Abby's estranged (half) sister. Her animal is a lyrebird! so she can do freaky stuff with voice mimicry or whatever to directly paralel deuz's way of fighting, muscle and brawn VS weird mental games.

She lived all of her life inside a cult until she was 11. Her mouth scar is a tally they gave men, she has scars on the palms on her hands (that you cant see in that drawing oops) because they used to cut those regularly, put everyone's blood on a pot and drank it.

She’s obsessed with individuality while also being extremely hung up on never being alone. The cult she was in denounced the idea of people being individuals and instead promoted the idea of everyone being a piece on a bigger puzzle, everyone copied each other everyone felt what the other did, no one can alone and no one can celebrate by themselves, all must be done in groups and all must be felt as if they were a single entity. She thinks thats gross and wants people to be different and be selfish, do whatever they want forever. Thats why she's scared of being a follower, she doesn't want to fall back into being some weird zombie

Anyways, SHE got out but she sort of assumed her parents were just fully into the whole thing (after all they made her be BORN in it you know.) but actually!!!!!! her mom also got out. And she made a whole new life without her!!! Fun!!! She's like scrap! Left behind and replaced with another kid (in her eyes), so yeah, she kinda has issues with Abby, lol.

Raquel

She's a golden pheasant! and also surprisingly the most normal one of this group

Nothing really went wrong with her (she was born half blind so there's not like any story behind that one), a bad habit just snowballed real bad.

As a little kid she was the type to steal little things, first it was classmate’s erasers, then pencils, then scissors, then their pencil case, and it just kept getting bigger and bigger. And no matter how much she got reprimanded she kept doing it and doing it and it kept just getting worse, and she’s a hoarder on top of that so she’ll take a bunch of stuff she doesnt need and put it on a pile and it’s legitimately suffocating.

She kept stealing her parents and other people’s money, kept making her living space just a pile of everything, and kept getting defensive over said pile as if it wasn’t just clutter, because of this her parents kicked her out with the intention of her getting better while living away, they call her regularly to make sure she’s ok. Surprise! Belén is an enabler! So she got worse! 

She met Bélen when she was straight out of her hell, and they've been together ever since. She helps her a lot with how to be a bird, since Belén grew up insanely detached from animal specific stuff (cogs in a machine all have to be the same so animal specific behaviours were bad). They have mathinc bracelets! yay!

She used to date onyx fun fact! But they broke it off cause she stole a necklace that held a lot of emotional weight to him and refused to give it back like to this day. girl stop being a hoarder.

Mar and Lake

Dont tell anyone but Mar is kind of my favorite oc after red LOL. These two are another set of weird shadow siblings! but unlike Fred and Freddy and their very complicated/ antagonistic at times relationship, these 2 actually get along really well

They are a bandy-bandy snake! They had a really bad home situation since forever and mostly just had eachother (+ avani but ill talk about that beetle later).

Mar goes only by mar, she HATES being called Marisol since her really abusive mom always called her by her full name. She is the one who pilots the body 99% of the time without any resistance, mostly since their childhood has left Lake really scared of most things, she only ever goes out when she's at the shared house their group has, but when they go out it's just Mar. Both of them are suprisingly very kind and nice and normal and it's sort of a contrast to Onnie. While Onnie wishes he killed his dad and takes it out on everything and everyone. Mar actually killed her mom!!! lmao, blah blah blah she was a drunkard and neglectful at worst and abusive at best, so they (mar, lake, and Belén because of course she got involved) kind of just turned on her kitchen and left her passed out in there to get carbon monoxide poisoning. Perfectly believable way for that mf to die! so no one really questioned it

Lake really does not want to be reminded of anything regarding any part of their childhood so Mar renamed her, haha get it the sea and a lake.

Mar is STUPID attached to Avani, best friend forever, girl who patched me up and took care of me my bestest friend forever, they drive me insane.

Avani

I love how she looks absolutely fucking nothing like her animatronic I think it's the funniest thing ever (and in our defense, loon doesn't exactly look or behave like balloon boy either). Her animal is an asian ladybeetle (since those are often regarded as the "evil" counterparts to ladybugs)

She’s a genius in the most objective sense of the word. She skipped a bunch of grades and graduated at 14, fucked around for a year (and deeply regretted it) and then got into med school and is currently in her 4th year! has a full scholarship and is invited back to her school to talk about herself since like hello she graduated at 14? She has never gotten a mark lower than 90. She has had jobs in many high demand and high effort companies, It’s deranged. How are you an office lady and also a med student how do you sleep?

The answer is that she doesn't! The only reason she hasn’t kicked the bucket yet is because she takes unprescribed ADHD medication (Adderall) to increase her productivity, surprise! Taking meds that you don’t need is bad! She has become dependant, she hallucinates, has anxiety, etc. This habit of hers was born from a toxic work environment where literally everyone did the same to be at the top of their game.

Her parents are Indian immigrants, she is first generation, they moved countries when she was barely 1 to try and give her better opportunities. This in her brain translated as “i tore them away from their home, i can’t afford to not pay that debt off with them, I have to make the most with what they gave me through sacrifice” meaning she’s kinda crazy about being the best and always pushing herself further and further and further.  

She has known Mar since she was roughly 5 years old and Mar was 6, she witnessed the poor kid be abused first and forefront, she saw her be all injured and they were unable to go to a hospital because they might contact her mom, AKA the person who did that. And Mar begged and cried for Avani to not tell other adults because she obviously didn’t trust them. This fucked up situation is what pushed Avani to going into medicine, and she was the one who patched up Mar for the most of her life. However, she was a literal kid, so she did mess up a lot of places, left Mar with glaringly obvious scars and stitched her hand wrong, so wrong it keeps hurting even now that she’s 20. Because of this she feels like she also has a debt to pay off with Mar, and often beats herself up for not being knowledgeable enough when she was little to not fuck up so badly. (she's insane)

She has no hobbies, she doesn’t watch tv, she doesn’t watch any media, she doesn’t do anything for fun. If she had to pick one, her “hobby” is probably talking to Mar, she's codependent, she’s insane. Dear god. She doesn’t naturally emote that much, but she is a copycat in the most literal sense i could mean that. She can smile and cry and emote on command by remembering how other people doing it, she is quite literally, copying people, and in most cases, it’s most likely she’s copying Mar in specific. It’s pretty clear she isn’t fully feeling what her face says whenever she pretends though, since her antena, which normally move a lot, always lay completely limp and dead.

She is quite the people pleaser, not in the sense that she will act polite and small and whatever with people, but rather that she feels like she needs to make herself be of any and all use to people she starts considering close to her, which also implies not making them uncomfortable, this makes it so that even though she can deduce a lot of stuff about people really easily, she tends to keep it to herself and pretends to not know stuff she definitely knows, example one, Mar killing her mother. Example 2, Belén being from a cult. Normal things to know and notice as you can see.

God i hate her i can add more probably but ill leave it here for now, oh she uses mirror pronouns btw but shes a cis woman, epical i love when pronouns and gender are different (i dont know how to use mirror pronouns when talking about her in third person)

Scarlet

Lamb for the slaughter! literally!!! She's a sheep

Sickly child (illness tbd) who got hurt easy and frequented hospitals, her parents couldnt keep up with medical bills, both because they were crazy expensive bt also setting time aside to spend time with scarlet meant taking time off from work, which they could hardly do but did when they could. Both of them loved her, and felt bad of for her , that their child was unable to do all the normal kid thingsand was consantly confined to hospitals.

Her mom grew frustrated with scarlet never getting better, turned to faith and as she continued to see 0 progress in scarlet she got more and more agitated from the stress and grieved the child she wished she had, the one she thought she had when scarlet was born, as her thoughts of “this ilness took my child from me” “this illness robbed my child of a normal life” (which were always there, just less prominent) consumed her mind and made her vengeful and angry and she thought that Scarlet was both a weight on her own life, and that her child would be better off dead than suffering. So on one visit she just tried to kill her !!!!!!!!!!!! fun.

both of her parents got arrested! Her mom for trying to kill her and her dad for getting into an altercation with her mom, you cant just ‘assault’ someone even if its for your daughter, I hate the justice system

She's extremely anxious and clingy and sad and also! a bit of an alcoholic! which surely meshes awesome with Mar (it doesn't)

Done with the salvaged! I wish they shut the fuck up i hate them all! uhm whats up with the rest of the kids:

Leslie

Mai and Pup's cousin!!!!!!! Her animal is a black-and-white ruffed lemur and She is a trans girl! Her family is very good about it and also already sort of had experience with it thanks to puppet. She lost one of her eyes to cancer and wears a fake one, she's completely cancer free now though! She is mostly just an unwilling participant of whatever the hell those twins gets up to. Comedically negative girl paired up with the dumbest clowns in the world

She has a weird little mental relationship with her cousins, she hung out with them a lot when she had cancer and with no one else, but because of that closeness she can kinda recognize they don't work very correctly, and sort of feels like a (bad) caregiver who has to babysit them.

Lennard

He goes by Len because “Lennard sounds like an old man,” he is Leslie’s boyfriend! yay! He’s an amblypygi (weird little arachnid) and a laid-back, optimistic guy. He's more of a willing participant in the twins’ escapades, though he’s not as high-energy as they are; he’s more of a go-with-the-flow type.

He’s also narcoleptic and a huge horror fan, but he struggles to engage with most of it because the abundance of jump scares can trigger his cataplexy (a sudden loss of muscle control). Mai has accidentally scared the life out of him more than once (not on purpose!), triggering his cataplexy, and while she feels terrible about it, she just can’t tone herself down. RIP.

Michelle

Michelle :3 my beautiful daughter my ray of sun my little weird bird, she's a roseate spoonbill! Total social butterfly who flows socially perfectly on a surface level casual type deal, but has a hard time figuring out who she is without people beside her! She bases her whole self on talking to people and being with people and hurrah people and nothing without it, she contrasts with her stupid partner in that way (abby) since she has like ZERO hobbies and Abby is SUPER into a bunch of stuff.

She kinda follows the crowd and does whatever her friends want to do, her fear of "having nothing" sounds materialistic but it's mostly about being devoid of any purpose and anything to like at all aside from very surface level stuff :P

hi idk much about tennis but on the topic of that 'f1 is for the girls' article im curious what you meant about the way morgan riddle talks about tennis as a wag? sorry just learning about her in the context of this f1 discourse and interested in hearing more about this if you have thoughts!

sure 👍 if you know nothing about tennis morgan is the girlfriend of american player taylor fritz who is presently the fifth highest ranked mens player in the world. she is an influencer. i mostly just dislike 1 veryyy specific thing of hers, i don’t follow her (not a judgement on her i only follow like 4 tennis related ppl) and i also don’t hate influencers as a concept like who cares. i don’t think shes a bad person but she isn’t exactly a feminism icon. this got long

basically the mens world number 3 is a guy named alexander zverev who has multiple domestic abuse allegations from two different women and i don’t know the legal details exactly but as i recall the courts did find him guilty and that he settled out of court with one of them. so obviously i believe he should not be playing professional tennis and be afforded all the opportunities that goes along with that including sponsorships and being put in a position of power and so on but he is still allowed to play and the governing body of tennis is not ever gonna do anything about it.

but yes he is the world number 3 and rankings are objective so he is technically good, and certainly good enough for it to be noticeable when someone ranked below him beats him. going back actually exactly a year (since this started in wimbledon last year, also back then taylor had a lower ranking), taylor fritz is on a five match winning streak against him. which is really impressive everything else aside because most of the time when two people play each other a lot especially when they are fairly equal in skill level there isnt a long standing win streak it goes back and forth. and like.. sure i do love to see zverev lose i admit it like of course i am praying on his downfall

ANYWAYS so the point is that after taylor beat him (either the first or second time in this streak i don’t remember) morgan posted to her story ‘when he wins for the girls <3’ (i don’t remember the exact words but ‘for the girls’ was there) implying taylor beating him is somehow retribution for the abuse. NOW this idea is actually really popular in certain circles of tennis fans who dislike zverev and gets said a lot. which on one hand yes like i said i also want to see him lose of course. but to put on our thinking caps whether or not a player beats him or not a) does not make his victims lives better nor does it erase the fact that they were abused and b) players…. do not care about his abuse. like i am fairly sure not a single player has said that he should be banned or punished or whatever and when directly asked they all say something like ��oh i don’t discuss politics/off court stuff’ or whatever even if they will turn around later and start talking about off court stuff. they are all hypocrites and some of them maintain friendships with him. so like no they aren’t beating him because they hate him if they beat him it’s purely tennis related

altho tbh i actually mind it slightly less when morgan says it because presumably she would know what taylor thinks of him and if he actually does hate him and uses that as motivation then like okay cool i guess. also she got a lot of hate for saying that from zverev fans (a very defensive group of people) which i also feel bad for her about. and i dont think she probably could say something more insightful if she wanted to given that this statement alone got her hate. but… i really don’t think morgan has anything more insightful than that to say! which is fine i guess like i’m not exactly going to her to hear feminist takes on sports. but its just the perpetuation of the idea that there is moral value assigned to the outcome of a tennis match. which coupled with how she talks about literally everything else (see: f1 article) its just not a good look but it’s not surprising either. real ‘im just a girl’ ““““feminism”””” from her

[bylersboy]

intro post (finally)

ive debated making an intro post because first off ive been on tumblr for two years and I never got around to it and secondly I am really really horrible at talking about myself because what is to much info and what it to little info and the cycle continues but im giving it a shot because I feel like my mutuals have no idea who I am lmao

HAI my name is Charlie im 16 (18+ I dont mind if you follow me but please dont dm me thank you :]) I use jasper as an online name kind of (at this point its just reserved for my best friend ace but I dont mind if other people call me jasper since I still love the name)

my pronouns are he/him but im also perfectly comfortable with common neopronouns (it/its xey/xem) if you wanna get funky with it.

im a self diagnosed autistic and ARFID (if you dont know what that is its an eating disorder where certain factors make you avoidant and restrictive of the food you eat and it has nothing to do with physical appearance. for me its linked to my autistic sensory issues(ALSO OCD NOW?!!? WHAT THE FUCK?!!?)) I have depression and anxiety and the only reason I mention this is because I relate my mental health to my fav characters in tv shows and books and stuff so if you see me posting about them like everything is connected lol

(my a03 is ghostwithfeet if you want to see me be silly and project my weird life onto fictional characters (I am the most inconsistent updater in the world please expect nothing from me if you even ask about a project it will scare me and like I turtle I will crawl into my shell never to see the light of day again))

my interests really vary about current hyperfixations but heres the master list

I am pro saving innocent civilians. I know that this can be controversial to be such a big fan of this show and honestly I have a lot of complex feelings on the matter but im autistic as previously mentioned and its my special interest and It won't leave my brain even if im not directly interacting with the media so im gonna yap about it on my blog thank you.))

also just Finn wolf hard for some reason (check out his band the Aubreys its awesome. also check out a recent movie he was in called when you finished Saving the world. it means a lot to me)

donna tarts the goldfinch book

old special interests/hyperfixs

we've gotten to the part of the intro post where im wondering if this is way to much information so sorry if I overshared idk but hope we can be silly mutuals or friends if you want (never be scared to shoot the friendship shot I would love to yap with y'all)

also since this is taking over my other pinned post I just want to put this as an honorary spot and let everyone know that my old pinned post was a quote from radio silence and that Aled last is me and I am him and the February Friday plot line is actually me and it makes me sick how much I resonate with that book

CotL Shamura Narinder?? Thoughts

(JUST FINISHED TYPING IT UP AND IT ENDED UP BEING ABOUT NARINDER, SHAMURA ONE WILL COME LATER-) Hi, I'm reading through all the lore dialogue in the game and I'm talking about things I find cool! Quotes from the game will be in bold bc we want speculation not misinformation. Mostly about Shamura rn bc IM CRAZY IRVIUERHUVER IM CRAAZY YOU DONT EVEN KNOW (So that was a fucking lie-)

Fun fact, I think that Narinder got his crown when he died as a mortal? I might be 'what the sneef im snorfing here' about it but. First Silk Cradle encounter with Shamura, you get the Narinder name reveal speech and it starts as such:

"He waits by the rocks of the darkened sea, at the foot of the long, sudden drop. Within the maw of pointed-teeth beasts, the stutter of the heart, then stopped… He was the fifth. The fifth Bishop of the Old Faith. Our brother, The One Who Waits. Back then he was known by the name Narinder."

So, like, the Bishops used to be people, right? They were mortal before they were gods and at some point they "found" their crowns (though it is most definitely arguable that their crowns found them instead). Looking back into it, it's entirely likely that Shamura is just speaking in metaphors and talking about many different types of deaths, especially considering that at the fourth Silk Cradle encounter, Shamura uses the following:

"He waits at the point of the sharpened blade, the fate that cannot be outrun. He waits in the eye of the raging storm, at the end of the long day done."

BUT both Leshy and Shamura describe finding their crowns (which I personally think are both loosely tied to their domains since Chaos Leshy found his in the got-dang mud and Shamura used cunning to catch theirs in a web) and it makes sense to me that Narinder would find HIS crown while interacting, potentially while crossing OVER into what would become his domain of death.

And while the second quote chunk isn't spoken while directly talking about Narinder, rather about "The One Who Waits", the first IS and, tbh, I find it a logical enough chain of events to result in Narinder's "first" death. A cat who fell off an ocean-side cliff but didn't die from his injuries, but couldn't make it back up and was eaten by the creatures nearby. Or maybe, one who jumped into the water trying to escape something ELSE just to be hurt from the rocks and killed by something in the sea.

IDK I think I'm probably reading too deeply into it but I also think that's part of the fun, digging around to find dots may or may not connect and seeing what can be made of it! At the end of the day, it's at least a really interesting headcanon that I'm gonna keep for when I write about the characters I like!

[absolutely-normal-about-x]

IF Zero were to survive. How would he adjust his new life in the Reborn AU?

OH HOHO MF WOULD ESCAPE DEATH THE 4TH FUCKINB TIME WOULD OF BEEN HILARIOUS. BUT ALSO IT BRINGS UP A FUN SCENARIO TO COOK UP IF THAT BLONDIE BASTARD SURVIVES .

Long post ahead cause I have so many, many thoughts

Im still pondering a bit about it, but I was considering a fun little scenario that if Zero was able to be brought back before the events of Legends 1. He would of been active for a while before X and the guardians were even found. He could of just adjusted decently aside that he had to deal with being a carbon ahahah.

Hiding his identity as Zero and going by a different name and appearance (still has his golden pony twin but the once bright blond has changed to a more duller one) He would of looked worse for wear as his Armor has been cracked and replaced with different parts but still retained his fighting abilities with a saber. If the Z-Saber survives or not he’s still a strong swordsman.

Taking on as a Nomadic Digger, wandering around across Terra fighting against dangerous reaper bots and giving away his found refractors to local communities. Pretty much doing his own thing. He doesn’t directly get involved unless it’s necessary. He’s kinda lonely at the same time not having ANYONE that he knows even alive in his era can mess him up a little I mean this isn’t his first time waking up in a post apocalyptic world. But this world is different so…carefree and peaceful it makes him confused but glad but at the same time has a feeling that something’s up.

Being strong that he is would of been well known as the “Crimson Wanderer”. Forming a scary reputation of himself taking out pirates and reaper while being scary as fuck. He’s kinda grown to be a boogie man for Pirates but also to folks cause Zero is kinda scary and doesn’t talk to much these days. Bro have you seen how he fights?

He would of ran into Volnutt by accident when the boy’s dig job gone awry. It was a simple job but it turns out the Reaperbot at the time was too much for him luckily Zero was near by to help out. Taking out the Reaperbot with ease, when he turns around to see if the kid is alright.

The moment he Looked at Volnutt’s awed eyes it sends him back when he saved X from Vile in Central Highway all those years ago. He stood there staring at him before getting snapped out by that said kid thanking him for saving him.

Zero regains his composure saying that it’s nothing and be more careful. Volnutt nervously laughed saying that in he should of been more careful with the hidden traps, asking his savior if he’s looking for something in these ruins maybe reflactors. Only for him to deny and says he’s just finished a job is about to leave before giving the Boy a large refractor suprising him. Before Volnutt would say something zero tells him to be more careful next time before heading off before Volnutt could ask his name.

He’s confused about this man who was he? Isn’t he the Crimson Wanderer? Well at least he saved his live and gave him the refractor that he’s looking for! But some reason deep down in a gut feeling, this isn’t the last time he’s gonna see that man.

As for Zero, he couldn’t understand why he saw X as that boy. He’s curious of that boy something’s telling him he’s gonna have to keep an eye on him for now on and will. Since that first encounter Zero kept an eye on Volnutt, just to see what he got of course. Even running into him and that blond girl from time to time. The more he looks at him the similarities between him and X are more apparent. Is it just a coincidence? It probably is I mean it’s been thousands of Years there’s no way anyone knows about him and the rest of the hunters. But deep down he knows this isn’t a simple coincidence and he’s going to get into the bottom of this.

A week before Legends 1 , Volnutt ends up with a Digging job that coincidentally runs into Zero. He uses the opportunity of ask him some curios questions to try to get him to open up a little. He didn’t say much at first but slowly throught the job he was able to open a little bit about himself to the boy. But also Zero asks the boy questions about himself. Getting to know him a little more. They eventually have to fight the reaverbot together and again Zero couldn’t help but to see X in him. They have a little bit of a bonding before completing the job but before they part ways Volnutt asks the Man his name, zero smirked and said.

“Call me Z kid”

Then walks away leaving a bit of an impression on the boy…he hopes to see that Z again.

And now folks we cut forward to kind of present day with when the fam was discovered.

Zero begins to hear a little bit of gossip about Volnutt’s family catching his attention but didn’t mind until they mentioned the Guardians as Volnutt’s siblings and their Mysterious father. He chokes on his drink shocked at the mention of the 4 guardians…There’s no fucking way…there’s no way.

And knowing who the guardians are related if Volnutt is their “Brother” that must also means that…

It all makes sense but at the same time how

He does investigations to learn about this situation.

It leads him to Kattletox island, running into Volnutt who was just coming home from buying some groceries for dinner. He was surprised to see “Z” again asking him how’s he’s been and what is he doing here on the island. He says he’s fine and asks if it’s true that the Guardians are his siblings, as the boy happily replied with a yes. It was only then he felt watched telling Volnutt to get behind to him only before pointing at his weapon at a not so happy Phantom. Who’s been patrolling having a bad feeling the moment that he saw him coming to the island then talking to his little Brother.

Ah typical phantom dispute his strange appearance it’s him alright…and he was starring Daggers on him holding on his weapon demanding to explain before Volnutt try to lower the tension. Calming Phantom down explaining this is “Mr. Z” that saved his life before he’s fine. By Zero’s surprise Phantom’s harsh experience changed one with Softness towards Volnutt saying that he didn’t knew this “Z” was this man before turning back to Zero, his soft expression changed into a serious one before returning to his soft expression towards his little brother. Volnutt wonders if it’s okay to invite Z for Dinner…Phantom reluctantly says yes.

Volnutt smiles asking Z if he wants to come to dinner, not surprised Zero accepts the offer but notices that Phantom was eyeing on him. So the 3 of them went off to the home through the walk there Zero couldn’t help to feel that Phantom is looking at him suspiciously like while he listens to Volnutt chatting with him. When they finally made it to the home….

Volnutt calling out to anyone that he and Phantom are home and brought in a Guest. When the door was opened time stopped for Zero of the person was who opened it….

X

It’s no doubt it’s him.

Even without his armor, wearing an apron that says “I heart Food”. he’s still the same and yet…he’s older, grizzled, his build is soft still strong. Having an X-shaped scar on his right eye. With slightly longer hair that is brained with a white streak. His eyes still holds that spark but has been aged with time and experience.

Volnutt ran towards X happily exclaiming “Dad!. X’s expression lights up when he sees his child rushing towards him giving him a Hug. X laughs happily welcoming his youngest child home giving the boy a warm smile.

A far cry to a once sorrowful man, who’s filled with regret and sorrow.

He’s happy

X looks over Phantom with the same warm smile welcomes his other youngest home, before glancing at “Z”. He asks Volnutt who is this person that he and phantom brought over.

Volnutt happily saying that this is “Z” the man he talked about before. X turns back towards “Z” his eyes locked into his.

It was on instinct as X calls towards Phantom to come to the house while he speaks at Z. Phantom quickly complies giving his father a “Do you think it’s him?” Look before heading towards home with his little brother. Volnutt looks at this father concerned and confused of why. Before being pulled by Phantom saying that they should get ready and their father has it cover.

Zero was this close to turn around never wanting to ruin the peace that his best friend has earned. X approches and stops him asking him a single question.

“Do you think I’m dumb? That description and the information that have …is it really you…Zero?”

He wanted to lie and leave but it’s Obvious…X is not moron he can tell it’s him, despite how he looks and how dulled he has become he can recognize him from a mile away…he nods then gives X his familiar snirk

“The one and only, it’s good to see you buddy you look like you get a lil sloppy there”

Simply without warning, He was greeted by a swift sucker punch in the face by X himself knocking him on the ground.

“THE HELL WAS THAT FOR!?”

“That’s what you get for calling me sloppy but also”

He offers a hand to lift him up something that Zero gladly did. Before pulling his old friend into a hug. Zero can hear X crying with tears of joy followed by laughter.

“Welcome back to the land of the living again you Old Bastard”

Zero didn’t say much…but for X’s surprised he hugs him back.

“It’s good to be back”

The two old friends laughed together before walking towards the home, it seems that for the first time in a Long Long Long time. They are at peace before x happily takes his old friend back home for Dinner.

This is going to be an interesting Dinner.

That TCU post…that is truly one of, if not the greatest thing I’ve ever seen come out of this fandom. I tried my own hand a while back at writing “the dsmp but taken seriously”; gave it a name and a playlist but didn’t really write much before I went back to my other projects. If you ever have the motivation to do more with that outline I’d be honored to be a co-writer or help out in any way, or if you want you could just use my title as a name for the series: A Ballad of Broken Dreams.

holy crap op this is so sweet. Thank you so much. I’m… wow ok. That. Wow. Thank you. That’s legitimately so kind and I’m so glad you enjoyed it XD. Id also Love to see your playlist and your thoughts behind the songs if you’re down?! That sounds awesome :D

funnily enough, I’ve had a drafted outline for this heccin thing running around in my head since the Butcher Army arc. Right around when SAD-ist dropped her animatic, I simultaneously realized ‘oh wow, I Adore this concept’ and ‘oh wow, I Highly doubt the CCs are gonna manage to do this the way I’d want to see it’ and lo and behold: I was correct. So painfully correct. (There were also People Involved whom I had Really Bad Feelings About from very early on that, sure enough, turned out to be exactly what i thought they were, rip) So the Emduo prequels, Icarus heccin Dying, and the end of Axe of Peace have been around for Ages.

I’d honestly love to do more with this concept, (i am designing movie posters as we speak) but due to Chronic Illness Pog I’m in a rather unstable financial situation? And don’t have a ton of free time for art. Any big projects are gonna take a While, or id need to find a way to use it or something adjacent to fund, y’know, Rent. That being said, I’m definitely writing the emduo prequels, both as movie scripts and as novels, as those are the films focused on, yknow, My Bois. I also think it’d be hilarious to release the novels and then the scripts and watch people Loose Their Minds over the ‘inaccurate adaptation >>:(‘

I’d absolutely love to work with other people in the fandom on this stuff, though I’ve never been the best at directly co-writing (my writing method and style is painfully specific (ie needlessly poetic) and I’m very autistic: I don’t like it when people touch that Specific Thing) but literally anything else? Im open ears. I love collabs.

and finally, I adore your name for the series, (excellent word choice there /srs, it fits perfectly with the symbolism of the whole story) and I think it works really Really well for the actual DSMP, but if I’m entirely honest… I’m not sure it fits the TCU? Like genuinely I’m so grateful for the suggestion, I love when people offer ideas and bounce things around like that. But one of the main things I tried to do with this concept was work out how the story could actually end Well. A deep-seated belief in the good-but-fallen nature of man, the importance of hope, and the inevitability of redemption kinda comes part and parcel with the whole Being-A-Christian Thing (if it doesn’t, you’re missing the Whole Point Of The Bible) and while the actual DSMP may have ended in broken dreams… this doesn’t. That was my first thought when writing that outline: This Is Going To End Well. Not for wish-fulfillment reasons, not because I’m naive or I don’t like bad endings, but because fundamentally, everything sad is a lie, and if the story has ended in tragedy, it hasn’t ended yet.

If I had to pick a series name now, I’m not sure what I’d pick. A part of me balks at referencing anything popularized by Our Local Redacted, but ‘unfinished symphony’ wasn’t his in the first place, it was from Hamilton. “The Finished Symphony” has a cool ring to it? I dunno. If anyone else has ideas please feel free to toss them in here aight, I’m not settling on anything for a While.

Anyways, thanks for Ted talking with me, drink water 💜

i looked through your friends blog.. i like the concept of a blood bag person thing. there were probably better ways of saying that but IDK!! once again though i think it is Extremely Drawable so i have a small request ..

and regarding CALCIFER .. i think i would appreciate a deity to deity chat. or an potential acolyte to deity chat or I Mean Ha Ha. and those pronouns are Pretty Cool if i do say so myself! im worried directly sending in an ask would be strange so since you said you were friends with them can you parrot my question? i rlly wanna know whether drawing fanart of their OC is okay. sorry what else. im going to try and plan my next correspondence out ASAP so ill probably go through the cedardivine post before the post you made with a ton of fics? just because the list is shorter. idk what ill do after that--maybe ill rank them or something and you can tell me how wrong my opinion is or something Haha! just kidding im always right. i create new truths as we speak. as im typing this im overwriting just a little bit more of the world's knowledge. im just cool and awesome like that. theres nothing else i can think of at the moment to ask you.. OH UM when you mentioned callyris i realized "hey wait dont i know a blog called that" and Look Who It Was! so thats neat i also think i found another blog that may be under your posession but i dont think i can ask about it at the front desk.. so when i message you in some other manner ill probably ask you about that! who knows i might even be Completely Wrong

well anyways sorry for the delay. it will probably take a while longer for me to compose my thoughts so the delay will continue but. idk. i hope this message isnt TOO INCOHERENT but again i am not proofreading at all for this one.

also im definitely using gooby forever now. thats great. what a peculiar phrase.

GOOBY!!!!

hi hi hi hi! i took a million years to get back to this so NEVER apologize or rush about sending me things. anon asks r a tough way to communicate cause i dont got an online indicator for u so i just gotta guess... and u dont got a notification for me! i hope u see this even tho its been a bit.

ive been busy too cause university's also piling up for ME. i'm gonna respond to this one first, and then i'll take a crack at your mysterious coded message! and then i have to do a million homework because grad school. outside of tumblogging im trying to destroy the world with the infinite power amulet, so i'm majoring in general supervillainy! and also urban planning

for the blood bag: @rigormarcy LOVES fanart. marcy, if u see this, respond with your ref, 'cause you have a super drawable OC! the fans wanna draw u so bad. So Bad.

u found another blog that might b me? omg.... here. how bout this. send me an ask with just the name and i wont publish the response. if youre REALLY curious. but youre probably right, because i invented every blog on tumblr GOOBY

Work in Progress(es)

I won't go on the spill, you know what day it is, and I do things when I want.

Lets start with DOGTOWN SAFE HOUSE. I'm working on making things a bit more homey for V3AH. It's a slow progress. Also if someone could help me figure out how to move the sleep icon up from the bed thats there, that would be great. Right now she clips thru the bed to sleep on that dirty ass mattress.

How the apartment pod even got up there is a mystery to us all, but its gonna stay. I already have some changes to it i'm wanting to do. maybe i'll release the preset when im done.

MOVING ON--

I've been working on some Lore for the 2077 timeline, still working on the name of it.. I've been..... Scheming.... if you will with @fly-amanitaa about some of the directions I plan to take. WHAT I CAN INDULGE, is public knowledge.... and by that i mean it's been posted in my Delusional corner for a week, so my besties already got first dibs.

Kang Tao reigns as the Apex of Night City with the help of Shin Chae-Rin joining the Engineering department. Gong-Ji and the Cheol Family have taken over after the construct of Jung Ho-Seok aka Jago (Jay-Go) was ripped out of him to prevent certain Terror on the city if reunited with his Wife, Panthera, who has been missing for nearly 10 years now. The Night Jackie and V3AH break into Konpeki Tower and preform the Heist, instead of being greeted with Arasaka family, it's the Cheol patriarch being murdered by Gong-Ji.

This storyline, plays directly off the second AU. Where Mara and Jago get married and at the end you see both borg’d out Jago and Mara closing in on an AV to Kang Tao tower, the plan is to destroy Gong-Ji and the rest of the Cheol family, rip it root and stem from the garden. They killed Jago’s whole family and have been in an active manhunt for him since the news doxxed his real identity.

Then, when Jago and Chae-rin split, Gong-Ji moves in with villian intentions to use her to kill her former lover, while keeping her for his own. Knowing how Jago really feels about Chae-Rin, when all else failed to get Chae-rin to Willingly come, Gong-Ji forced her to join Kang Tao and refuses to let her go unless Jago is killed. Chae-Rin, refuses to do it. She won’t be the one to give the command to kill someone she loves so much.

When Jago hears about her Capture, him and Mara fight for a while. The moment her name gets brought up, he always wants to run to her. It’s clear his feelings for her never left him, and Mara is sick of it. She agrees to do it, but she’s doing it to get back for taking his family. Not Chae-rin, and she will not extract her. He would have to do that himself. She’s sick of being second in his heart. The mission fails (still working on how that happened), Jago is captured and assumed to be dead. Mara narrowly escapes and is nearly dead when she calls Titus to evac her. She was already fading in and out of consciousness when Odessa shows to grab her. She was left in a recovery tank while they figured out what happened to Jago. No matter what they tried, Odessa nor Azimuth could find out what happened to Jago. All attempts ended the same, countless dying. Titus, knowing that Mara is basically Azimuths Adam smasher at this point, knows that she will go Berserk and kill everyone. Odessa had already made plans to leave earth and head to Europa where colonies were starting up. They loaded the Cryotank up with Mara inside and decided to keep her subdued until she got to Europa. Which is why Mara hasn’t been seen in 10 years and no one knows what happened to her. THUS explains as to how Mara ends up on Jupiter's moon with the rest of Night Raid Which bridges our lore from cyberpunk to Barotrauma.

LASTLY...

I mentioned I would talk about the unknown cutie that ya'll have been going crazy for!!!!! BABABABABABABAABAAAADAAAAAAAA!!!!!!\

It's Joi! Yes, in the main storyline she was the Clinic A.I, but in the new AU, Water on Mars, i decided to make her human, and she is Mara's Rival for Jack's attention... one of them at least.

Let me tell you it was a struggle to make someone that might make Mara jealous, but honestly, I think this cutie will make Mara run for her eddies.

Joi (I dont have her last name yet I might have Joi as her handle....) is 29, she's a techie/netrunner who specializes in drones. Think of a hivemother, but with drones. That's her. She will join Mara's merc team when they cross paths, so now its a question.... Will Mara and Jack make it to the end or will Mara be replaced with the girl she hired to work with Jack?

Normally, Joi is my Android or A.I character, i normally only play her on Barotrauma, but I needed someone to make Mara sweat, and clearly the Media from Wellsprings Tells things, was too intimidated by Mara. (for good reason too, after Mara threatened her, she smashed in Gorge's mom's head in. Gorge is a 13 year old boy who was hired and looked after by Jack and Mara. I will tell ya'll why later.)

okay... so those are my WIPs for whenever. I have been tagged by so many people i can't even keep up with, but most recently: @glitchinginthegarden

What are your thoughts on The Book of Life & its theories? I saw a fic that made a very good point: if anyone tried to erase Crowley or Aziraphale, they would essentially destroy the fabric of reality as it is because the two of them are so deeply ingrained in the history of the world since its inception that making it so that they never existed would alter the timeline beyond recognition or salvation.

hi @silcosmoke!!!✨

a lot of my thoughts around the book of life is in the dedicated tag in my masterpost, but im not gonna be a cop-out and i will instead give you a run-down of what tf i think is going on with it👏

in direct response to what you put in your ask - i do really like that thought, and logically i reckon that would be what happens if crowley and/or aziraphale were written out of the BOL!!! the only thing for me personally is that this would be working on the assumption that that is what the BOL actually does, which... im hesitant to believe is the case

i personally think that michael has the BOL wrong or misunderstood, in that i don't think erasing names from it doesn't mean erasing that person from existence

instead i specifically think, in the context of angels, that being written from the BOL is to signify that they fall, and that to varying degrees erases memory of their angelic selves - and i think possibly (i haven't thought this far ahead but now is as good a time as any) that the amount of memory directly correlates to the rank that demons previously held in heaven and/or the power they did or currently hold

there is the potential that once they've been wiped from the BOL, that the fallen may not only be damned to hell - instead, in the more modern times post-fall, they may be conscripted to a lower rank in order to preserve the heavenly population (im thinking specifically muriel and the intended fate of gabriel as 37th and 38th scriveners respectively)

(possibility that maggie may also be a fallen angel but was secreted away to earth, or legged it in a similar fashion to what gabriel did - this one is under the #we need to talk about maggie theory tag)

i think that saraqael possibly has access and/or control of the BOL on behalf of metatron (namely - their PDA as seen in the trial scene in ep6), has potentially kept an eye on the true fallen/taken the heavenly fallen (if that distinction makes sense - heavenly fallen eg. muriel) under their figurative wing, and might be sympathetic to undermining metatron in s3 - this is explored more in my #saraqael spec tag

following the amazing meta written by @justhereforthemeta re: The Tactical Turtleneck, i think it's possible that crowley worked out that the above is the BOL, and that's contributory to why he's cool as a mf cucumber in ep6 re: aziraphale being threatened with the BOL by michael later on - he suspects that saraqael might be a possible ally, and aziraphale isn't in any danger from that particular threat

i think it's also why metatron immediately retcons any option of using the aziraphale; to have him fall would be to send him, possibly irrevocably (i don't completely buy the 'you have this insane op power to restore demons to heaven' spiel he gives aziraphale) to the opposition, and remove any barriers between him and crowley - at least, most barriers anyway.

the whole theory is probably full of loopholes but in any case, thats the general idea ✨

[henriiiii-1001old]

tell me more about cesar in the fairytale au!! or anything about the uhhhhhh news cast au i cant remember the name of ti right now im sorry

i keep forgetting i need to make my fucking channel 3 subplot au masterpost ough </////3 i also just need to make more content abt it in general but fairy tale au got stuck in my headdd <//////3 (also nw on not remembering the name its fucking long as shit so i get it xdddd )

um i'll just say it here, theres this one tmc oc (he's basically an oc/self insert of a music artist. yknow the guy who did overthrone and intruder? yeah, that guy) i decided to add in bc haha funny news reporter. his name is langston solover (i fucking love that name idk why) and he's actually an alternate.

there used to be a real langston, but he got killed by some other alt who took his place. started spreading propaganda about like "the true savior" and shit and the newscast was like "nonono let him cook he's kinda onto something"

he is honestly also just a silly goofy guy i love him <3

ANYWAYS FAIRY TALE CESAR!!!!!

ok this will only make sense if i bring the other characters in so let me give a brief summary of one of the bigger moments of the au

SO, the fabled four solved the whole evie getting poisoned thing, and theyre all chilling. someone finds evie and decides to snitch on her being away from the castle for too long. things happen where evie and adam get taken to her castle, she gets locked in her room but eventually escapes w adam and all that (you know what im talking abt reaper but im just gonna keep it vague and i'll explain the full thing to everyone else later :3 )

cesar actually had become increasingly worried about evie since she had been missing for a few days. after hearing she was with a witch of all people, he was extremely concerned.

he does have a good reason not to trust adam though, cesar had saved mark and sarah from one who was literally about to kill them, and cesar also got cursed by the same one who tried killing them. he had stayed as a frog for years, and when he finally broke free of the curse, he had become so deformed that his family didnt even recognize him.

but no matter how hard he tried, evie wouldnt change her mind.

and neither would cesar for a good long time, especially since one of evie's castle staff ended up being on the witches' side gathering info for them. he'd eventually come around and trust evie that adam means no harm. he doesnt trust adam directly, but hey, that's a good start!!!

[hetazoeylia]

oh you poor thing; you have no idea what you've just brought upon yourself >:D

💕👎🔮✒️🔥📚💛🪞🧠🏆🗺️

ong

💕 : Who's a character thst you love but never (or rarely) talk about?

Iceland! He's actually in my top 3 but I don't rly know what to post ab him. I wouldn't call him underrated since he has a lot of fans, but I'll try to mention him in my posts more in the future :3

👎 : What's the worst character design in your opinion?

Belarus' ribbon maid outfit thing she has going on is just... weird imo?? I would appreciate it if she just wore a normal uniform like everyone else tbh. Also Turkiye's mask is zesty af idc

🔮 : You can choose to retcon one thing from the manga/anime, what is it?

Korea's character maybe?? idk why Hima considered that a good idea.. I would prob replace him with an entirely new character,,, oh, and that super old strip with Japan and China (you know the one I'm talking ab) was super bizarre and I dont see a reason not to remove it if I was given the option to ahshdhg

✒️ : Do you have a headcanon that you love, but directly contradicts canon?

Does the FACE family dynamic count?? Idk if it contradicts canon b in case it doesn't im also gonna say that I see Hungary as a lesbian which im pretty sure does count bc she was canonically married to Austria iirc

🔥: Give us a hetalia hot take !

I'd really like to see more moments of the axis and the allies just hanging out together. Considering theyre the main characters it's lowkey sad many of them barely have any interactions together (Hima pls all I need is a panel w/ Germany nd China). I rly liked the movie night episode in the anime for that exact reason

📚 : Recommend a fanfic?

I haven't read that many hetalia fics acc, but searching under the Allies tag on AO3 is my favourite thing to pass a Sunday afternoon <3 def recommend it

💛 : Name a friendship that doesn't exist in canon but you'd like to see between two characters!

I have a ton of those but ig my fav example is Italy and America. I feel like if they were given more scenes together they'd be a rly good duo, since they both have the same vibes nd stuff imo

🪞 : Do you have any physical appearance headcanons for your favourite character?

I like to think China is a leftie mostly bc i'm a leftie and I dont see much representation of us in media,, i can also imagine him having chubby cheeks for some reason

🧠 : What's your most "essential" headcanon? (one you can't imagine the hetalia universe without!)

Idk how to answer this one 😭

🏆 : Sell us on a character! Maybe it's someone you think deserves more love - tell us why they should be liked !!

Romano is not underrated but shh let's ignore that,,, so yh I find him very relatable most of the time, he has a lot of canon content to consume and he's overall js an entertaining character and a grumpy silly lil guy who's fun to like

🗺️ : Who's your favourite allies member? Axis member? Nordic? And favourite character who's not in one of these groups?

My fav ally is China (or maybe Canada idk), fav axis member is Japan nd fav nordic is def Iceland. From the rest of the cast i like Greece, his cat obsession is the realest thing ever, I ship giripan and that's also the country I'm from sooo

[empresskaze]

3, 10, 12 for Vik please! I just want to read people talking about this man all day long!

YES SAME (obv MAJOR PLOT SPOILERS FOLLOW)

3 What's your favorite canon moment with this character?

Every single time he's on camera 8Db

Ok seriously jesus I cannot pick just one (as someone else asked this for MV I'm gonna not answer for him yet). God Im trying to think what scenes Ive watched the most on IG XD

Gotta break it down by season, I can't choose just one.

Season 1 - I gotta go with him and Jayce at the fissures after he spreads Sky's ashes. He looks so dejected, his leg is fixed, he isn't even using the brace but he looks so frail. Even when he pushes himself up you see his crutch shake. He's feeling so guilty about what happened that when I realized what was about to happen I was just yelling JAYCE JAYCE SHOW UP SAY IT SAY IT

AND HE DID!! That parallel from s1e2 is so fucking perfect. The look Jayce gives him as he sits, HE KNOWS, HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT VIKTOR WAS GONNA DO. And to get his mind off of it he brings up a happy memory of them at the Young Innovators thing. I CANT WITH THEM.

season 2 - Him dead naming Jinx after she makes an ableist comment. THAT SIDE EYE. HE KNEW EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS DOING. HE SERVED CUNT.

10 What would devastate them the most, emotionally speaking?

I think him killing Sky devasted him the most. The fact he was directly responsible for her death even if he had no idea she would be coming. The fact he had ignored her for the most part and then finding her notes. That entire scene of him crying on the floor just kills me. Viktor is a scientist, he likes to be in control of his surroundings, he hates when he can't figure something out as we see with the hexcore. The fact he had no control in that entire situation and it lead to a death, yeah I fully get his reaction (and why the hexcore chose Sky to manipulate him later on)

12 How do they act when sick/injured? Is it obvious or do they hide it well?

I bet in the beginning when Viktor's health really started to decline, he did try to hide it and probably well for a while giving Jayce all sorts of excuses since they were both probably working very late, with little sleep and living on coffee and dreams. I think he definitely got away with using his leg as an excuse for a looooooong time until Jayce realized how bad it was becoming and made him the crutch and the brace (AND possibly the backbrace!! There's art on Jayce's bedroom wall of a woman wearing something VERY similar to it!)

I do feel given what happened in s1 (whatever the epi is where Viktor collapses), hearing what the doctors told Jayce about Viktor, I think while Viktor was out Jayce looked over every memory of Viktor being sick in his head and got upset with himself that he didn't do more but at the same time understanding how V isn't one to ask for help and Jayce adhering to that. Jayce is so careful with Viktor is makes me weak. I could go off on how Jayce respects Viktor wanting to be independent but thats not part of this ask XD

THANK YOU @feverflushed for asking these! I have another from an anon coming up so more Viktor (and MV) answers to follow!!
