Justice League: we need someone to break into this Juvenile Prison for this mission, but none of our kid heroes can do it because we don’t want them to get a criminal record in their civilian identities! Is there anyone who could go undercover as a kid and get arrested so we can get the intel from the prison?
Billy, was actively running away from the cops when he was called into this meeting, already has a criminal record, DEFINITELY knows the layout of this juvie: uh hey guys did you know I have UH shapeshifting powers?
#mads posts#billy batson#justice league#dc#Shazam#captain marvel#the justice league listening through the hidden comm on Billy hearing him swearing at cops to get arrested (again): 👁️👄👁️#im probably going to write this ngl#edit: I WROTE IT!! check in the notes <3333

If I wrote a longfic of my version of season 2, would people read it?
It would likely be a monthly chapter of 12,000-15,000 words for 8-10 months. And each would correspond to an episode (The Case of [_])." It would be season 2 in written form, the way I envision it.

Prefacing this TGCF post with: people can draw and write however they want forever and I support them and this is about my personal view of these characters.
Anyway.
I saw a post today that had Xie Lian singing "when will my life begin" from Tangled and it drove home what really bugs me about a lot of fan casts of Hualian onto popular media (see also my Howl's Moving Castle take). It's this idea that Xie Lian is, well, waiting for his life to begin, and Hua Cheng swoops in and makes it exciting, when this is imo so utterly antithetical, and in fact opposite, to canon.
Xie Lian has lived and lived and lived. He was a prince, he fought in wars, even during his 800 years fallen the whole book is an exercise in showing that he WASN'T just waiting around, he kept doing things the whole time - Fang Xin Guoshi and General Hua and and and. AND he also cultivated to the point of ascending again. Xie Lian is a fucking bad ass idealistic martyr who doesn't know when to quit and at least to me that's the whole point of his character and I love that about and for him so to see him inserted into existing franchise AUs as the wilting flower waiting for a moment to shine is utter character erasure and it makes me insane enough that I'm writing this post about it even though I think I shouldn't and even though I genuinely don't want to rain on anyone's fandom parade. But like. That's not him!
You know who it is?
It's Hua Cheng!
Hong Hong'er lives in Xianle, a kingdom where all this stuff is happening, and he just watches from the sidelines. He's an observer at the parade. He's just some kid. And then he falls (or jumps, or is pushed, you pick your interpretation) and he's caught by literally the coolest guy in the entire kingdom. He's the nobody who gets swept off his feet! And it changes his whole life! Like I think it wouldn't irk me so much to see Xie Lian get typecast that way if Hua Cheng wasn't right there literally living his "I met God and it changed my whole life for the better" fantasy. He seriously deserves to get recognized for this. I get that he's the loud flamboyant one so that makes it seem like he should get cast as a Howl or a Flynn or whoever, but like. He was waiting for his life to begin, and it does, when he meets Xie Lian.
And like. I get that these are kinda competing interpretations that depend on when you look at canon - I'm looking at the original 800 years ago events, others are looking at Hua Cheng coming in 800 years later - but still the "present" in TGCF isn't imo about Xie Lian having waited to be saved, he hasn't been in a hat shop for his whole life boredly making hats, he's never stopped moving and never stopped adventuring and never stopped striving to change the world. Hua Cheng is living out his "you saved me now I save you" fantasies but fundamentally they save each other over and over and over again and that's beautiful and I hate seeing it erased to make Xie Lian into the wilting flower. Like. The one who basically hasn't done anything that whole 800 years is ALSO Hua Cheng. We don't hear about him going off and having idealistic adventures. Everything we know of that he's done was directly related to Xie Lian (ie burning the temples). Other than that he seems to sit around in Ghost City chilling with his ghoulies. So again, finding Xie Lian is what pulls him out of his funk and prompts him to start acting for good, whereas Xie Lian has been acting for good the whole time.
Ugh. I should shut up now, just, I've been in this fandom for four years and this has become such a pet peeve of mine because it reflects such a huge disconnect between how I perceive these characters and how much of the rest of fandom does. And that frustrates me, cause I wish there was more content in line with my perception.
#tgcf#unforth rambles#hualian#i probably shouldnt post this i really dont eant to get into it but i just sigh please more people see them the way i do im begging#disclaimer i have ALSO written xie lian as a wilting flower cause sometimes thats fun#and im sure plenty of folks do play with the blorbos both ways#but the overwhelming amount of art and takes i see puts xl in the waiting for life to begin role basically all the time#and its just so antithetical to how i see the characters#ngl this is also a factor in me not reading basically any fanfic#cause i know if i find this over and over in fanfic its going to make me murderous#just like when i was reading destiel people writing passive cas who could do no wrong and angry dean who was always at fault#made me want to burn down the internet

DUDE THIS CW CHAPTER IS FUCKING ME IN THE ASS RN WHY IS THERE NOTHING ON MY OUTLINE .... its okay the adhd pulled me elsewhere and i pruned the www outline so things are more compact/coherent (im excited). ANYWAYS SORRY IF THIS NEXT UPDATE IS SLOW TO COME OUT HRKKK
#personal#47 chapters instead of 52 now!#mostly because povs are mikey and donnie like exclusively#but there are three exceptions for raph april and leo. “interludes”#and theyre chapters that i want to be long and full of plot so i condensed some stuff#actually now that i think of it i could put a really important scene at the end of april's interlude....#id just have to cut out a mikey chapter in the middle :(#might be a good thing actually. it reveals something i could choose to keep a mystery instead#MIGHT BE 46 INSTEAD YALL SORRY#im excited for where we went wrong have i mentioned it yet .....#ill probably go for a 4k per chapter minimum but they could get a lot longer than that i feel#NOT excited to write the first chapter though. like donnie and leo's introductions are really funny and stupid but pretty much recapping-#-canon events with small differences is a little bluh#thats why the plot takes a HARD turn after act 1 ngl... youll see#doing more with shredder as a threat#EDIT ITS 44

No word count picture b/c it was only like a hundred words in the document today (I swear it's like pulling teeth right now) BUT I did finish editing the first chapter of this long fic. Right now the plan is to read it one final time for spelling and grammar, then fuck it we ball.
Hoping to have it posted tomorrow night, but considering I've never posted to AO3 before and may hit a snag with the tags we shall see.
If not tomorrow then Monday night (I have work all weekend, and when I saw all weekend, I mean when I'm not at work I'll be sleeping. Twelve hour shifts will do that (at least it's only three days a week hehehehehe)).
#mg writes#this is gonna be weird for yall ngl#like it will probably only appeal to like three people including myself#but w/e fuck it we ball#one of my goals with this project is to get over my fear of posting shit#anyway if you like mass effect and fallout and baldurs gate i hope you like it all turned up in a blender#watch this isnt even half as weird as im making it sound#still pretty cringe probably#ok enough i need to go to bed

(steeples fingers) due to the unique way i have comepletely ruined my arm* i think. i might have to give up dragoon specifically.
*which i did by spending multiple years button mashing due to a combination of adhd-based 'what if i zone out and forget to hit my combo' anxiety and and a general unfamiliarity with 14's particular style of combat followed by force of ensuing habit.
sorry hallima ;-; you're still a dragoon in my heart
#ive been taking it easy for a while now#learning DRK and SMN mostly bc theyre easier on my arm#SMN i can almost play normally tbh. but ive still been avoiding anything too high intensity anyway bc yknow. healing. w/e#but i tried to play DRG today bc i was feeling better after spending 5 days at con (and thus not so much as touching a videa gaem)#and the reaction of my arm was *instant* (and not in a good way)#its been months since i last really played dragoon...#i think. probably. idk my sense of time is not the best#i miss it tho#machinist also made my arm go NO. FUCK U. but im not as attached to that one so w/e#i did do dawntrail as dragoon but ngl i really shouldnt have. the writing was on the wall wrt my arm but i thought if i was careful mebbe-#i did it all with the support system and there was a *lot* of breaks between every battle#no one ever accused me of being smart i know i brought this on myself (mostly. prob still wouldve happened eventually)#(i do have an old sprain injury in that wrist that i dont think ever quite healed right)#ANYWAY uhhhh this has been a woe is me post you may continue on your way#stop talking to yourself flight

I feel old bc I didn't like the amazing digital circus.
#like not to be a hater but like.#....i feel so underwhelmed#its so odd how half of the show feels like a lab grown “sure to do numbers on tumblr” by the book experience and then the other half is lik#the weirdest most well animated love letter to late 90s early 2000s computer media.#and how none of those 2 halfs manage to congeal well to me at all and creates something that feels so fanficky in its creation i cant help#but feel disinterested in literally anything it has to say because i know they werent thinking that hard about it.#like i told my friend that you could replace the setting with a haunted house or a deep sea cult and fundamentally you would have the same#plot and charactertization.#nothing felt fundamental to its premise beyond its comedy and “nonspecific glitch monster” and created something that i feel relies purely#on style with zero substance. it feels like keto diet the animation.#and like it sucks bc im struggling to figure out whether or not it was a personal taste issue or if it genuinely didnt work from a writing#level.#and like ig thats a good thing im thinking so hard about it but ngl i probably wont go back to watch any new content they make for it.#ngl from the little ive seen of murder drones its the same thing? so maybe just stylistically glitch's projects arent a thing for me.#thats entirely a possibility.

sudden itch to write a rare pair fic thats not Percy related
but like
the last time I did that it ended up becoming my top fic and lead to me deciding that you know... actually I hate that ship just out of spite so i'm not sure how good of an idea it is
maybe if i try like femslash or something super super rare with side characters or something
#using tumblr as a diary again#like is it healthy to feel that way?#no it's probably not but knowing that hasn't made the feeling go away in the months sense i posted it lol#like multiple people have asked for more for it but I'm ngl I'm likely never touching that ship again much less the fic itself#like if i even did decide to it would probably just be Percy and Viktor meeting#the whole reason it even became the ship it did was because I couldn't figure out how to write Viktor#But i don't think that's what people mean when they say they want more of it but maybe id be less annoyed if I did add a Percy/Viktor chapt#I feel like this is what those people mean when they talk about posting art you put your all into vs a doodle#because while i spent a hell of a long time procrastinating writing it i was never like actually happy with it#I just kinda wrote and posted it because I was running out of time and wanted to be done with it#which I think is part of why I find it annoying that it has like double the kudo's of everything else but it makes sense that it does#like it's a garbage fic yeah but its the main character and a fan favorite so ofc its going to get more attention#especially in comparison to the niche nonsense I make that I like more#will I ever delete it No I'm fire believer in not deleting things I've made because ive learned in my life i always regret it so#I just have to get better at writing so I can knock it off its horse >:)#or just keep adding extra chapters to Raspberry Muffin until it surpasses it lol#they only have a difference of 64 at the moment so its not impossible#I know im going to see this again in a few years and be so confused on why it bothered me so much i just know it lol

I'm having ideas :
Stanley waking up as a puppet for the Narrator's story but slowly coming to his senses, gaining consciousness and independence. Learning how to think, how to express himself, how to choose.
And the Narrator has no idea it's happening, but the puppet he created is slowly becoming human.
But that also means the Narrator will have less and less control on him. I wonder how he'll react hmm...
(badly)
#the stanley parable#tsp#my writting#ngl im probably going to actually write something about that#the brainrot is strong rn

finally starting this baseball au and admittedly getting a lil handwave-y about the baseball oops
#realizing i know enough about baseball to easily keep up with games but probably not enough to go in depth#but my writing inspiration comes so rarely that deep diving into baseball when i know enough to get by is not an option atm im ngl#especially since this fic is mostly an excuse for bucky to chew bubblegum instead of chew#and for them to hit all the bases ON the bases#anyways#maybe this one'll actually get finished at some point#otp: i’m coming with you#marvel

Am I weird for making hcs about what kind of [my issue] all the characters in [my hyperifxation] would have?
Like ex: What kind of ed every tf2 merc would have?
Like not even in a “I’m going to give them all my problem exactly” kind of way- I just like to think about their characters and assign them a problem
#yall im being ill on main again#anyways#I’ve put thought into it#I’ll probably write a fic about it#soldier would be a compulsive exerciser#scout would be a mid intake kind of restrictor#like his diet consists of energy drinks and snacks#he half asses tracking cals too#he’d probably round down ngl#like ‘eh it’s only ten cals might as well be zero’#medic would probably omad#like he forgets to eat throughout the day and then eats one medium sized meal#okay I could go through every single mercenary in the tags but then I’ll#get into the less fun ed stuff#and nobody is here for that#oopsie I got started#but like I do this all the time#how would each mha character sh (type of sh why they do it and where)#make each character autistic and write about how they all present it differently#or how they stim#or what substances they’d abuse#and I just assign it to every character#I’ll fucking do it to Dungeon meshi don’t you test me#tw self harm#tw ed descussion#tw ed but not sheeran#tw sh#tw ed trigger#tw substance abuse#tw autism

I've managed to write one thing in the last few hours of just. Utter Brain Nonsense (it's fine; it's the Usual Shit and nothing worse than I've dealt with before. Just gotta ride out the emotions my brain is riling up.)
And I might. Actually feel okay about it? I don't know abt audience for it; I've read a decent amount of Venture Bros fanfic in my time, but haven't ever written anything for it that I considered publishing until literally rn lmao. So I'm not sure if anyone would be into this but...maybe?
If nothing else, I should probably try and find out if people are spoiler tagging much for post-Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart fics. I should be able to remember, but I never can when it's time for me to consider relevant tags for my own fics lmao, I'm always double checking so I don't fuck it up.
#text post#thank u guys for ur patience with me as i whinge abt writing im not posting yet#im so sorry if you followed me for writing i swear i am working to get something in publishable state it just.#the writers block has been blocking or at least making it hard to make that happen as much or as quickly as I'd like#the audience for this fic even among fans of the show would probably be. Small fdkasfjldasjf#it's literally just Feelings the Fic in which The Monarch and Dr. Venture are meeting up regularly in a diner#pretending to keep it a secret when it really isn't to anyone around them#where they try and actually talk abt how everything that happened/was revealed in the movie makes them feel abt each other#ngl it was also an excuse to write some abt The Monarch/Dr. Mrs. The Monarch/Gary aka 21 which is just. one of my faves#they technically all each have at least one brain cell at any given time (tbh usually Dr. Mrs. The Monarch has all three thank fuck)#but sometimes there's just. nothing pinging for any of them and so much going on and they care so genuinely for each other#and it's so like. usually decently to well written and realistic and just sweet that it Gets Me#similar to how Gat/Aisha/Boss gets me kfjdlasfjd#idk idk midnight emotions abt a tv show that i don't know if any of y'all following me even like or watch ignore me lmao
