#is another story altogether

[pyrrhicraven]

We love your fics!! 100000000% worth the wait!! 😁😁

Can we maybe have some scenes where the partners stand up to their “in-laws”? I wanna see Bowser and Boo VS Mario and Shredder VS Splinter! Ooh and definitely Dooku in an argument with Anakin

I had to go with that last one because It was all I could think of at IRL work most of this week 🤣

Anakin looked like a mulish youngling as he watched them interact and honestly, Yan was far too old to deal with a temper tantrum from a young adult. Obi-Wan clearly could see what was happening but didn't want to light the fuse so he would.

"Spit it out Skywalker, we both can see you have something to say." Anakin inflated like a tooka. They did that to make themselves bigger if threatened, he almost lost his straight face at the thought, and he blamed Obi-Wan for getting him to lose the mantle he'd worn for so long.

"I don't like you! And I still don't believe you were really a spy for everything!" Ah, this again. He blamed himself for being such a good spy, a good liar, he'd had to be to survive the chancellor. Taking Anakin's arm had been something he'd not wanted to do but had no choice if he wanted to look like he was actually trying to kill him and Obi-Wan. Yoda had arrived at a perfect time, too bad it had been after he'd severed Anakin's arm.

"Anakin we've been over this. He had to do what he did to be sure that the Sith lord did not know he was being tricked." Anakin glanced down at Obi-Wan's legs if he could have...If Yan had been faster or stronger maybe Obi-Wan wouldn't now match Anakin.

"What if I don't think that completely true? What if I think he liked the dark side more than he admitted!" This again. Anakin had been fascinated by the dark side and Sidious would have more than likely been feeding that fascination as long as he'd known Anakin.

"It is a cold and hungry thing the dark side. It will take from you and give you nothing but pain in return. Even if I were more invested in the dark side than I have admitted, it would eventually show would it not?" Reason would mean nothing but he had to appeal somehow, to outright deny that he had been tempted by the dark side was a fool's errand and untrue.

The temptation had been vast. But he'd been playing a role, biding his time to strike like a true shadow. They all had their brushes with the dark side and that was the task of a Shadow-to overcome the temptation. Anakin would have made a terrible Shadow.

"You lie as easily as you breath, why would I believe anything you say?" And there it was. He'd expected that but Obi-Wan made an aborted sound, eyes swinging between Yan and Anakin.

"Do you trust me Anakin?" Anakin frowned,

"Of course I do!" He hadn't always, Obi-Wan had admitted as much to him one night. Realizing that Sidious had been feeding Anakin paranoia and distrust, eapecially at Obi-Wan.

"Then trust me when I say that Yan can be trusted, that he helped us in the final moments because he was Jedi the whole time." Anakin scoffed and Yan shifted, just a minuet thing but it sent Anakin off the edge.

Anakin interpreting the move as aggressive force pushed him, He stalled it, keeping his feet under himself and snarled at Anakin.

"Anakin!" Obi-Wan said in shock and Yan brushed away another force push.

"I know you hate me for what I did, but look past your hatred before it consumes you." As it had nearly consumed him, Yan didn't want to see a new Sith born after an old one was put down like the beast he was.

"You almost killed us so many times and you think I'm just going to believe you were really on our side this whole time? I don't know what you told the council or Obi-Wan but I know what you really are!" Anakin shouted a new wave of force hitting Yan so hard that his teeth rattled, and he slid backwards into a wall.

Pushing away from the wall Yan summoned every ounce of patience his mind had to offer. It shattered the moment Obi-Wan was pushed away from Anakin and crashed into the couch sending him tumbling out of sight.

With a shout he shoved Anakin with as much power as he could muster in the force. Sending Anakin flying out of the window, fear jolted through him and Yan raced to the overturned couch, Obi-Wan was grimacing and holding his hip, but looked otherwise unharmed.

"Yan what did you do?" Yan huffed pressing his hands to Obi-Wan's hip to force heal him.

"I might have a weaker resistance to my anger than I led others to believe." Obi-Wan snorted.

"You pushed my former padawan out a window. Anakin will survive but he certainly won't trust you more for it." Obi-Wan with an amused look on his face. Yan rolled his eyes but flinched as the door to Obi-Wan's quarters burst open, Mace looking wild and half mad with his purple Lightsaber ignited in one hand.

"What the kriff happened here?" They both snorted at the man, more than aware that he cursed like a pilot and unbothered by it.

"Oh, you know just arguing with Anakin." Obi-Wan said blithely as if it were a stroll in the gardens. Mace turned off his lightsaber and placing it on his belt before eyeing the broken window and overturned couch as Obi-Wan sat up with a hiss.

"I take it he's still convinced Yan pulled the Bantha's wool over our eyes." Yan snorted and nodded sharply because yes exactly that.

"We really need to get him to talk about what Sidious made him feel, a mind healer to make sure he's alright...Or as alright as someone who was being manipulated by a Sith Lord!" That was rather generous of Mace considering normally he'd be up in arms over a shattered window.

"And you! What the kriff did you do to get him to break a window!" Obi-Wan snorted, a hand over his mouth as if to stop from laughing.

"Yan chucked Anakin out the window." Obi-Wan said with almost a straight-faced if it weren't for the hand and the way his eyes crinkled at the corners. Then he burst into laughter as if throwing people out windows was hilarious.

"I'm missing something here, because it sounds like Yan killed Anakin." Obi-Wan shook his head still laughing and held out his communicator, it chirped and Ahsoka appeared with an arm over her shoulders.

"Ah hi! Anakin is safe managed to catch him in the net!" Mace's mouth twitched and suddenly he burst into laughter.

"You got his former padawan to save his ass? How much are you paying her because I don't think it was enough!" With both men basically rolling on the ground with laughter Yan pulled the communicator from Obi-Wan's hands. Ahsoka looked amused by their antics.

"I would apologize to Skywalker, but he pushed first." Ahsoka snorted and Anakin pulled his head into the call, eyes fierce but his mouth struggled not to smile. Fighting perhaps the urge to laugh with the two men who were now wheezing and laughing at the same time.

"Yeah, I still don't trust you but if Mace thought it was funny I'll let it slide for now."

DPxDC crossover but, instead of Danny being his ghostly-horror self, the justice league believe that he's just some guy.

Danny: *glowing eyes, sharp teeth, aura of eldritch being*

Villain: You're seeing this right?

Justice league: *turns around to find all the ghostly stuff gone* oh that's Danny *waves* hi Danny!

Villain: ...are you being serious right now?

It's not even that he's doing it on purpose, it's just anytime he does ghost things none of the heros are looking, and when they do have him in their sights he's just a normal person.

It probably wouldn't work for batman and his thousand cameras, but let's just say that it never got his attention cause no one in the league thought to mention it and the one time he did check it was just regular dude hours.

To the Justice league Danny is the humanist human to ever human.

Which is why they are so confused as to why this small branch of the government (mad scientist parents optional) is so sure he isn't.

A Funny Take on Damian killing Danny

Yes, this is demon twins au. You know the trope, Ra's Al Ghul makes Damian and Danyal fight to the death. Now here's the humorous take

Damian loves killing his brother. Sure, the killing itself isn't fun, but what comes after? He loves it. Because in his pit madness, Danyal behaves like a badger. And Damian, inheriting his father's lack of self preservation, has absolutely no problem trying to wrangle the feral animal that is his brother

[thewardenisonthecase]

my biggest issue with the whole ghoulified warden is not even attachment to the warden as a character, its that it would make for ONCE AGAIN another dropped storyline because its like ok so you put the warden in the back burner bc they were looking for a cure, and even tho there's a lot of stuff that could have possibily cured the warden/slowed the progression of the taint, you went with no actually they found nothing despite searching for it for god knows how many years...

i think as a concept is really interesting and could go many places, but im glad it stayed that. a concept. if it had made it, im pretty sure it would not have been as good (bombastic side eyes dai hawke and dav inky)

[starlightwayfinder]

aros when the story explores the role of relationships and their effect on sense of self and fulfillment, the acceptance of impermanence and change, the perceived emptiness and isolation that comes from having a different emotional experience than the people around you, the struggle to balance independence with connection to others, wanting to be loved but not at the expense of being ‘imprisoned’ or tied down, choosing to be true to yourself at the expense of meeting others’ expectations—

[fromtheseventhhell]

Seeing awful takes about Arya is even wilder knowing that people would lose their minds if we said the same things about their fave. Can you imagine if we were genuinely theorizing that Sansa's story ended with her dying, warging into a bird, and becoming a pet for one of her siblings? They would have a fit and call us all kinds of misogynistic, but they'll never explain why their logic is suddenly wrong when it's used for anyone except Arya

What is Josiah’s relationship towards his regene tattoos?

Thank you once again for asking! <333 Getting any asks about Josiah always makes my day! Took me a moment to reply because uhhh- [wilhelm scream], but I hope it also gave me the time to ponder some more on this topic.

Under cut as always, though not as long as before. Instead, got… weirder? Question mark?

(tw self-harm, and other Sidestep-typical dissociative issues)

Oh God. He hates them. Burns on his skin, bondage, fish suffocated in plastic. Of course, the most basic reason being that they make it hard to hide, the paranoia seeping in any time there was a rupture in his Sidestep suit. Wearing layers in the Los Diablos heat, too, unbearable. But most of all, the personal - the inhumanity marking him, staining him, can't wash it off, can't cut it out, just like he can't excise his own past. His own nature. The tattoos are a symbol of that, the final leash, a reminder that no matter how far he might run, how thouroughly he might try to remake himself, he will always be a sad little tool in the toolbox. Still cowering in the corner of his cell.

He just can't look at himself. Can't. He will brave it when he needs to, when he needs to sew himself up, but otherwise? Showering in the dark, though to him the tattoos might as well be bioluminescent. An anglerfish. Get close, get bit. Mirrors smashed on a bad day, then covered up in curtains or tape. Can't be bothered to replace them. Shaving in fractured reflections, a thousand funhouse faces. Can't look at his own face, no, no. Having a body at all, a body they made, they groomed, being touched, prodded, examined, evaluated, a racing horse. Gets lame, gets shot. …Proud of every single scar, though, marring their prize pet. Self-harm. Them-harm. A disconnect between the body and mind, body was theirs, I am my thought, I think therefore I am, therefore, therefore, by cutting the body, I am harming them, not myself. Blood down the drain.

The tattoos are an easy scapegoat, too. A convenient excuse. Couldn't get closer to Ortega, no, never, because you could never show skin, and this is what he would want, right? What normal people want. What People want. Not-People don't show skin and he'll either get bored with you and drop you, or get suspicious and drop you. Down, down, down the drain. A solid self-hate spiral, if you dare say so yourself.

Hates seeing his own face in the mirror. Wrong. Boney. Bones… wrong. Set and reset. Can't reset a face. Only, hah, you can. A prettier one. More familiar than this. No need to shave, no scratch, no itch, itch right under your skin that you can never reach. No, no burn; soft, pliant, yielding. Clay in your hands. More... malleable. A remaking, a rebirth. A breath. A step. Steadier legs, standing steady on the ground, no bones set and reset, too long, too tall, standing out. Being seen at last and not hating it. What a novelty. Could you ever do it? …No. Of course not. Only way for you to have is to pretend at pretending at pretending.

Replica of a replica of a replica.

You're Hollow Ground's younger sibling, he says.

Why couldn't it have been you? Why never YOU?

Show him. Show him the truth. Make him curl up in disgust the same way you do, every morning, every evening, every forsaken fucking minute of your sorry life. A burden shared is burden lessened, isn't it, Dr. Finch?

. .. …

…Being seen at last and not hating it. What a novelty indeed.

Diana on a new background story for John, his storyline in book 10 and future Lord John novels/novellas. She also mentions The Haunted Soldier (apparently there’s something that happens in that novella that is going to be important for John in book 10?) and how his storyline in s8 will be a bit different from what she plans to do in book 10.

Not a lot to go on, but…

today i smelled an item of my clothing that had spent a few weeks in my ex's closet and literally fell to my (already bruised) knees

Caio's hair fluctuates between three states:

looks like he just got out of bed and combed his fingers through his hair once

The above but with a half-assed ponytail

The rare neat "work ponytail" that only exists while he is at work.

My current readings 👁👁

[is-this-tf]

Is it TF?

TF, as in Transformation, is a concept that can mean quite a few things to many different people- and when depicted in art or media, usually consists of some sort of physical or psychological transformation of one thing into another, often including the contexts before or after such a change occurs. 

For the purposes of this blog, the assumed pretense that the TF or TF-adjacent content depicted in posts on this blog being nonsexual in this manner is considered the default, and will be treated or engaged with as such unless clarified otherwise, but there are plenty of ways those who engage in TF art can enjoy it! There are many who consider it a paraphilia for themselves and commonly enjoy it as a sexual theme (as explained and described very well in this comic here), but it is also quite common for people to enjoy it entirely nonsexually, as well- perhaps exploring it under a lens of gender, as a vessel or narrative device to communicate themes, or just liking it as an unrelated special interest... TF is fascinating and alluring concept in itself, regardless of the ways it can be enjoyed and explored.

I made this blog because I love it when I see people unintentionally making TF posts on tumblr. I feel like it happens a lot and I think it's really, really funny when it does, by accident or not. Feel free to tag me in posts or send in questions asking if something is TF, and I'll give my honest answer as an expert in the field myself. 

Don't forget, words to live by:

Primary tags: #this is tf, #this is tf art, #unintentional tf, #intentional tf, #definitely intentional tf, #not tf

Additionally: Now taking TF or Pass requests and suggestions, just for fun! Please just limit suggestions for this if you want to play to sending me an ask, for me to answer from my inbox rather than being tagged in posts. Linking posts in asks for this is fine, but please specify the character you are asking me to rate in the text of the ask as well. All posts related to this on this blog will be tagged #tf or pass.

had to delete a post bc apparently using the community labels to rightfully flag it as violent flagged my ENTIRE BLOG

[delurkr]

Me hyperventilating over how meaningful it is that Anthony as a younger sibling with his personality is in a very powerless position among his family and how integral his immaturity is to his character and how the awareness he had of his helplessness made him bitter which contributes its own spin on his survivor's guilt and how him learning to grow out of that position and trust himself is a majorly important arc that must never be ignored, vs the one redditor who once commented that Ashley Tisdale should have been the star of LH because she'd do better as a mature older sibling type character and fit the story more

I promise I'm not mad at them (and I never actually interacted because I don't have an account and the comment was ancient) but hoo boy, way to miss absolutely everything that makes Anthony's story complex and dare I say original as a take on survivor's guilt

Why are we hating the AHFH festival format now? Seen that post going around. It is like criticism of everything Louis does lately. AFHF is now not a festival or WAOYF music video is not a video. Nothing Louis does lately make you happy? Why stay in fandom only to bitch about every single thing Louis does and tell him that you think you know better and that he should do it like you want and imagine him to do it. Louis chose BMG independent label to be independed not like Columbia doing 1D promo 

I don’t know what to tell you anon other than that some of us still possess the ability to think for ourselves and the mental acumen to recognize that the marketing and promotion for Louis’ projects is not being handled correctly

you wanna applaud his team’s mediocre (this is me being generous) efforts? good for you, you go right ahead… but there will always exist those of us who just want (and think that he deserves) a lot better for him

that being said, there’s always ways to curate your online experience so that you see only the rosy, rainbows and butterflies content, maybe try to do that if reality based topics bother you to the point where you have to send the same anon message to multiple accounts

Given that the actor playing the teacher is only like three years older than the rest of the cast, I keep seeing him and wondering, who's that random student with them all?

(And it looks like we will be getting Namgoong x So Hee after all. Fingers crossed the show convinces me they belong together.)
