#in high school. huh.

You know, I think when they finally start to slip into being more romantic, it won't be a huge conversation in that very moment. They'll have that later.

I think it'll be a moment like this, post-confession and Charles developing a crush on Edwin over a few episodes.

I think it'll be no words, maybe no thoughts, just feelings.

Charles lightly grabbing Edwin's arm as they're walking to get his attention, as they've done many times before. Only this time, instead of dropping his hand fully away, he hesitantly drops it closer by, accidentally brushing Edwin's fingers. They both get that little electrical nervous system hum reaction. Without thinking about it, Charles impulsively finds that his hand has reflexively settled into holding Edwin's. It feels right, and he doesn't want to let it go.

Edwin wants to sputter "Charles--" but the name never leaves his lips. He is speechless, his heart beating in the closing space between their palms.

They keep walking together, hand-in-hand, looking forward, rather than at each other. Flustered, confused, mutually pleased.

Maybe they can get away with holding hands more often. It doesn't have to mean anything, right?

so is anyone else still in a state of disbelief that taylor sang mary’s song for the first time in 16 years and mashed it up with so high school and everything has changed as a love letter to travis, or is it just me?

so have you heard about the ride kamens app game? seems like it's gonna be a twisted wonderland like game with all the riders being hot anime guys now, and it's also gonna be written by yuya takahashi and produced by naomi takebe (apparently it was in development before geats), with designs by the person who did sk8 the infinity, so take that for what you will

have you ever gotten the feeling that a piece of media came into existence just to appeal to you specifically, or

(brb preregistering immediately)

(as far as I can tell you play as an agent who maintains a secret superhero base for riders in the basement of the rider-themed cafe that you run with your butler, and there's some other plot stuff going on but honestly I'm way past sold at this point, this sounds amazing)

Mdzs modern AU where teen Lan Wangji keeps voice recordings of himself confessing his love to Wei Wuxian, but never sends them. Wwx runs away from home & disappears for 13 years and Lwj searches for him while recording all his feelings. Maybe he keeps all of these recordings in an old MP3 player or something idk, and just, abandons it in his old house when his family moves into a new big one. And maybe one day coincidentally Wwx moves into the same house, finds the player and finds out that his first love, has been loving him back all these years, and maybe in some of the recordings, Lwj talks about how he has been writing a song for him, and that he has already decided the name of it, and in the last one, he hums the song, but doesn't say the name of it. And Wwx frantically searches for Lwj everywhere and when he finally finds him, after 13 years, the first thing he says to Lwj when he sees him,

"You didn't tell me the name of the song"

And Lwj just, freezes, not yet comprehending anything that's happening, except the fact that the love of his life is standing right in front of him and asking him a question about something he could never know unless a miracle happened, but somehow uttering the word,

"Wangxian."

The rest is history.

Can you tell us your the reasons for why you like Papyrus? (I’m sure you’ve did this before xd, but I always enjoyed rambles about Papyrus. Hope you’re well!)

oh it is 100% his whole loneliness thing. growing up i was a chronic friend group hopper all the way from kindergarten to 8th grade and then by high school that didn't work anymore so i just kinda didn't have any genuine friends for basically that entire 4 years. so hyperfixating so hard on a character who's basically completely centered around that struggle helped me feel a bit less hopeless about it. the funny thing is i think pre-undertale papyrus actually had more friends than i did back then but like its the little things

that's why this fic that i'm gonna plug again hit me so hard tbh. shit sucks when you're trying so so hard to be friendly and engage in other people and then you get to a point where you have to realize they're not at all interested in returning the favor, even if they're not overtly rude about it or anything, they just don't care to get to know you any deeper than surface level convenience and it gets real hard to not let yourself get angsty about it lmao

i do think that while sometimes i wish i hadn't been given such free internet access as a kid i'm still really lucky that i was able to be exposed to undertale when i was. it's such a unapologetically hopeful game that i'm sure it absolutely impacted the way that i think about things today in terms of optimism and the ability to turn bad situations around, and papyrus plays a huuuge part of that entire message. if it weren't for him, i'm honestly not sure if i would've had the drive to keep trying to connect with other people even when it didn't work for so long.

so tl;dr thank you funny little skeleton man for constantly reminding me that making friends is still possible even when your demeanor is frankly weird as fuck. sometimes you just gotta keep truckin until you find your people even if it takes a while

i imagine seven really has nothing to do with it, she was just there for moral support (who was also trying to stop her gf from going to jail) but said gf doesn't have any morals so here they are

geto meme batch bc i love one man <3 + this week’s episode broke me like a sad flimsy piñata

[crimeronan]

the biggest advantage of making a ref for AU vee's humansona is that now i have a face to put to the amnesia timeline "SAY ONE WORD ABOUT MY SISTER AND I'LL RIP YOUR DICK OFF" bit. it's one thing to Say that vee is very nice popular and sunshine incarnate, but it's another to actually See her cheerful smile n go, "oh, WOW. wow. i do NOT want to see you angry."

The thirsting over Logan Sargeant has me in a chokehold.

This man is literally your typical garden-variety frat boy, and it tickles me to no end that my European F1 besties are throwing heart eyes at him.

You are not immune to the US fratboy propaganda

this is super random and unprompted but.... one of my fondest memories is when i was in high school and became super unwell from a PE class, my friends literally had to drag me to the infirmary. it was also a class right before lunchtime, so they bought food from the cafeteria for me. and when i couldn't eat any of it, they bought me hot tea with extra sugar and stayed with me throughout recess to make sure i was ok.

i miss them.

Sugita Tomokazu tosses a ball around with 2 of his friends while they're discussing. something.

The one on the left messes up the toss and it flies off, cutting their conversation short.
