Can we retire telling people (especially children) "i told you so" when they get hurt. It has never helped anybody, and in fact is the part i most vividly remember from all of those instances. Having my pain and distress repeatedly trivialized and ignored in that way was straight up traumatizing.
#personal#children#child rights#idk what to tag this#it actually infuriates me sooo much#like wow your child is crying and in pain but youre too busy what? taking your frustrations out on them? proving to yourself that you're#Smarter and Better and it's their own fault?#man fuck any parent who says that shit. like genuinely fuck you

I CLEANED THE DISHES I USED. i even changed out of the shirt i was wearing for over a week! very productive. wait omg i forgot to mention. I ACTUALLY REALLY HAD PUT MOMS CLOTHS THAT WERE DONE IN THE WASHING MACHINE IN THE DRYER. I have to say. forgetting everything else, this is such a phenomenal act for me. it’s like fcking idk a meodorite fallen down. ITS A REALLY BIG THING. doing that is soooo hard for me. and i always have an immediate ‘no’ body reaction to the whole act but i didnt just fall into it. i like. toook a moment, you know and actually accessed it. and ! literally tho if mom told me i had to put some clothes in the dryer that would have been too much for me
BUT
anyways. i literally fcking did it. fcking hells
ANYWAYS it really was such a good morning day you know. baby steps!!!! and yeah u know i really do know that i dont do enough as i should etc. i really do know. its just really frustating how my mom doesnt see anything of this tho. yeah she needed someone to go n get the glasses and im really sorry for her but going outside was literally too much of a hurdle for me to just do. especially on short notice. like. really. my mind cant even think of trying it. visualling it
#mostly really im sad its so tiring n exhausting every time my mom lectures me on how much im not doing as if i dont know that i really do#i cant even say anything to her or try to explain what it’s like#because she really believes i just need to have the mentality. i just need to try#she never fails in these never ending lectures to word out EVERYTHNG like literally. its so fcking exhausting#and she wonders why i get sooo silent why im sooo uncooperative and translates that into im a lazy ass n dont care#n u know what. frankly dont care that she does#honestly every time i hear these lectures it makes me NOT want to try at all. even harder. goddamn it#its kinda crazy with me and my mom because we are SO diff and she doesnt understand me one bit at all#like she despite chronic pain etc does so much#while she sees me barely doing shit and of course thinks im lazy/dont care#and most baffling thing: IM making myself depressed??? this thing that she says really infuriates me so bad#like why the fck r u on about. what the fck do u mean making self depressed. im so mad because shes wrong on so many levels#idk if im depressed. mild? yes i think so anyways what the fck#the fact she believes that people MAKE THEMSLEVES DEPRESSED AS IF THEY WANT TO is so ma#like shut up im not eating for an entire day because i want to do that its cuz i cant eat foods my brain decides it doesnt want to#and i cant cook for shit cooking requires so much time to procress it first and the actual cooking requires so much energy and there are#steps i dont even know.#like fck u#anyways. yeah. really i get where shes coming from but every fcking time she starts on those lectures i really really dont want to do a fck#ng thing NOT AT ALL#like honestly. a part of me dies every time i hear a lecture and have to sufffer thro it cuz i fcking cant get her to shut up and yeah i ge#her frustating very valid#but fcking hells. im so tired n done at this point#like might as well be a fcking lazy shitass as she says

yes i love 'to kill a king' (2003). yes i hate 'to kill a king' (2003). what's not clicking
#to kill a king (2003)#this film is sooo. like its so incredibly infuriating on so many levels#i feel like a large part of the reason i like it is that we have so few films about this period </3#filmmakers are so scared to actually tackle the period head on without resorting to the supernatural or witchcraft etc etc#so im grateful for that much. but MAN#i dont think a single thing in this film (apart from MAYBE some of the dialogue during the trial) is historically accurate#why is cromwell shooting civilians in the street. why are there half a dozen corpses randomly strung up outside st james palace#what the heck is going on w the cromwell family like genuinely#the depictions of religion in this film are also so banal#the whole section w poor anne is just loss.jpg im not joking#can someone explain cromwell's haircut to me too im still wrapping my head around that one#the entire trial was also hysterical#and charles' death scene was so silly!! where is the gravitas!#and the assassination attempt is actually so funny. pls. what is happening#just absolute chaos from start to finish. i hate it. 9/10

As much as a Greek enjoyed the Hades game having people literally taking for granted the designs of the gods as legit is problematic.
No Hermes isn't Asian coded. He's Greek like every God. Literally what does the word Greek next to Greek gods mean to them? An accessory? Give me a break
I got a few asks like this, so I will try to answer them here. This is the post the asks are referring to, and this is the post that started the whole discussion afaik:
This is a whole phenomenon that has lasted for decades in the US, first with USians presenting the gods as North Europeans and now as "everything but" North Europeans to combat the previous racist trend. However, they are still completely tone-deaf, self-absorbed, and privileged because while they do this "correction" they're ignoring actual Greeks, and Greek depictions (and depictions of Greek gods in various areas in the past). Westerners might not be aware of this, because they don't know how badly the Greeks have been treated by powerful countries in the past (including their US, thank you for the Junta and our recent fighters' deaths, honey) but the protests about the gods' design are anti-colonialist.
I want you to imagine this trend with whatever pantheon you want from Africa, Asia, South America etc. Imagine that for centuries they are presented as super White North Europeans by certain powerful nations. Now the same nation who did this racist shit in the past comes around and does more racist shit, by NOT presenting these ancient gods as their people view/viewed them but they present them as everything BUT the appearance they had in all their depictions by the locals. All the while NEVER listening to what the people of this culture tell them, all the while comparing the locals to these gods and finding them uglier and savage. Why would this be acceptable? And why are people so comfortable to forget their cultural sensitivities when it comes to Greece?
(I am aware the US racism also expanded to other pantheons but it didn't happen in this exact way so all I'm asking is to walk in our shoes for a bit, to experience a different flavour of colonialism)
This blog stands for absolute equality and it's heavily anti-racist and anti-fascist, with various resources and support links for minorities in Greece. Everyone is welcome here. This blog believes that if you are of Chinese, Pakistani, Nigerian, Roma descent in Greece you must have the same rights as everybody else and the way you look is not "lesser" than anybody else. I just ask people to consider - especially if you are an immigrant - how you, your parents, your grandparents would feel when seeing your important cultural figures treated like this by the US.
As you have understood by now, changing the depiction is not suddenly okay when the Greek gods now have the palest skin with blue eyes and blond hair. No, that's still racist, and Greeks have been repeatedly told that they are lesser for not looking like the beauty ideals these northern countries projected onto our gods.
Asking for accurate god depictions is a matter of wanting your culture to be treated like.... not a prop, for once. Everyone is free to interact and relate with the Greek culture but when you take the Greek culture and its depictions out of the equation, then the whole thing becomes "playing with dolls", and a fandom (as is the case already for the US).
The Greek gods have been used by Westerners in the past to promote White supremacy, and today they are used by Westerners to combat it; but it still happens in the most divorced sense from the Greek culture. USians are still sooo hesitant to REALLY look at another culture that they'd rather lose common sense (aka, depict gods as the locals see them for millennia) than not white-knight for their fellow Westerners. It's actually infuriating that progressives in the US still miss the mark when it comes to combating US neo-colonialism, and whatever elements left in their culture from colonizing European countries.
And how can we tell the Greek gods are used as props in this US political climate? Simple. They themselves will tell you "It's okay to depict those gods however you like because 1. They can transform 2. They have been worshipped by people of different appearances 3. Greeks can have more than one appearance 4. They are not real. " Then, you tell them "Then why don't you depict Chinese, Indian, Nigerian pantheons whoever you like today? These pantheons all have the above four conditions apply. (No. 4 depending on your beliefs)" And when you strip those first layers, they tell you the actual root cause: "But Chinese, Indian and Nigerian people are still oppressed. Plus, non-white people need to see themselves in media, so here is the chance!"
So, they admit that their only guide for how disrespectful they will be to one's heritage figures is actually the oppression status of that minority (just!) in the US. (Which shows they still don't give a shit about Greeks, cause otherwise they'd still know that Greeks still face bigotry in the US for how they look, how their names are, their customs) . To POC in the US: The moment your oppressors believe your oppression is gone, expect your pop culture to forget (again) all respect for your ancient gods and treat them like cool "new" products for their capitalist game.
And the above discussion paints the Greek culture and Greek figures as a culture-less empty slate, that can be made to represent every person in the whole world. It's US culture, even! But Greek culture is hideous actually, and the Greeks are racist brutes who get in our hair the whole time. Fuck the Greek people and their ancestors' depictions. Greek mythology is a product of no culture, actually, and we can treat the gods like self-inserts in our favorite fanfic. And this is totally not a colonialist mindset! Greeks are not robbed and genocided anymore, and we gave them "white" status in our country a few decades ago (but these ethnic hairy people are still not the same as us, obviously!), and the strings we pull to control Greece are not visible anymore to our own people, so we're good 😊
And, just to be clear: Greek gods are ethnically Greek, as every other [insert cultural descriptor] gods are from that certain culture. The Greek people consider themselves literal progeny of those gods. The first Greeks were born of the gods. Even today we call ourselves Hellenes because one of the first Greeks, the man Hellen, who was born of the gods. If the Greek gods don't express Greek cultural norms, and POVs, and ways of thinking about the world, and are not part of Greek history, what the hell are part of?? Cantonese culture? Do they represent Scandinavian ancient values perhaps....? Do they follow the philosophy of a First Nations tribe?? (This is more a matter of culture, not appearance since various people can be part of a culture. However, it needs to be said, because Westerners are willfully blind to common sense at this point.)
See this video from a Greek Canadian on Greek gods being ethnically Greek
To address one last thing: One person said "why didn't you say anything about how the gods were designed in the first game?" Well, I had made a post about it but some told me "noo they didn't change their race, they just have different colors like green, blue, pink, dark brown, and grey for an artistic touch". I was like "whatever, nobody knows, I have a life to live" so I deleted that post and didn't dwell too much on it. But the anti-colonialist message was the same as in this post, so that's another chance to highlight it.

Round 2
Propaganda Under Cut
Allura
Lots of people (myself included tbh) ship klance (Keith and Lance). In s8 the creators made Allura/Lance canon (but then they killed her off and left the ending ambiguous it was weird). Anyway the fandom treats her like she's the most terrible bitchy woman ever but all she wants to do is end the war and avenge her destroyed home planet. Yeah she wasn't always the nicest or always the best, but you could argue some other characters in the show aren't either and they aren't treated near as bad as allura. people really just hate her bc Lance liked her. I don't think allura/lance are good together, but I still liked her as a character and thought she was interesting and had a lot of growth during the show. she DEF is not evil like some people portray her as in fic or talk about her in captions on posts. I've seen people say that they HATE her and that she's the worst and I'm like ??? let her live (well sort of ig she is dead now). lots of fic writers use her as the villain which is so interesting to me bc the show literally has villains like use them. anyway allura so perfectly fits the bracket description she deserves better.
I hate to acknowledge my time in this fandom but I hate the way the fandom treated her more. Allura was treated like shit no matter what side of the Great Ship War you were on because she was always a threat to the biggest ships (klance and sheith). At best she got put into Background Lesbian or Consolation Prize Shallura (Space Mom-zoned) (She was not a motherly figure btw. She was just Black). At worst she was violently demonized for being ~racist~ (kinda not cool with the alien race that blew up her planet for a few episodes), complete with misogynistic language hurled at her (she got called a bitch sooo much). Allura was a good and cool character and the show did her dirty but the fandom was somehow worse.
i apologise for speaking the dark magicks, but amidst the voltron fandoms many, many transgressions, there were a particular subset of people who just hated this girl. the infamous klance wars of the 2010s kept this perfectly fine childrens cartoon character in the sights of shippers everywhere, and she (and her voice actress im sure) were subjected to years of petty squabble blown up to global perportions. ive seen hate, ive seen rants, ive seen fanfics that made her homophobic. girls been through the ringer, and even though voltron was never the show its fandom wanted it to be, i believe allura deserved better
Mary Morstan
a controversial one i know, but it’s tumblr. how could i not? anyway shoutout to the writers for CANONICALLY killing her off for the non-canon ship. she was so cool honestly poor girl
Oh god where do I start? Constantly being turned abusive? Killed off (in canon!)? Constantly being removed from fic? I cannot stand the way she's treated, but it's 100% impossible to find Johnlock fic without the "umsympathetic Mary Morstan" angle. It's infuriating!
The fandom insulted Mary at every conceivable turn, refused to acknowledge her narrative importance or impact on the other characters, called for her death repeatedly, and even SENT DEATH THREATS TO HER ACTRESS because she had the AUDACITY to be a morally gray female character who was married to John (they did not care about the moral grayness of the male characters, but she was irredeemable, apparently-presumably because she was a "threat" to the main fandom ship). And though she was definitely sacrificed on a SPECIFIC mlm ship altar, she was still tangentially victimized by OTHER mlm ships too! For example, this fandom was willing to make up a character WHO LITERALLY DID NOT ACTUALLY EXIST to ship with different male character (who was morally...way worse than she ever was), as well as create swathes of content about two men who had maybe one canon interaction in the whole show, before even thinking about the possibility of making content for this character or even just talking about her in a way that wasn't overtly misogynistic and degrading. When Mary died in-story (in what, in my opinion, was an unnecessary, bullshit way), her death was, to this fanbase, not actually about her and was just seen as "proof" that the two male leads would now get together (they didn't). And this STILL continues to this day. People reduce her to "selfish bitch," completely ignoring any of her complexity by claiming that she's incapable of caring about anyone (despite helping to save lives on more than one occasion, as well as dying in an act of sacrifice) and insisting that any of her positive qualities MUST be completely fabricated. I've seen a lot of female characters get mistreated by fandom for a mlm ship's sake, but I don't think I've EVER encountered an example as bad as this one.

What is love? (nines X gn Reader)
BABY DON'T HURT ME NO MORE
Hum hum sorry guys, btw happy holidays even if I'm reaaaally late ! It was sooo nice! There was even snow where I live!
------
You and nines were friends since last month, he came as gavin's partner two months before that, being gavin's best friend, you helped both of them to get along, you took a liking to the android, wondering why he wasn't deviant when every other android did. Connor told you it's because his software is far more advanced than the others androids, for exemple, Amanda wasn't a part of his system unlike connor had, when connor got him out of cyberlife, she instantly got erased by the rk900 software, just like a virus.
It was late in the dpd, everyone was gone, except you, nines, Gavin, hank and connor, you were all teamed on the same case and it was getting frustrating at this point.
"ugh we are not making any progress! At this rate my head will blow up.." Gavin said massaging his temples
"yeah I agree, I'm taking a break, hey, wanna go to the bar to forget this?" hank looked at you and gavin
"heck yes I am old man" Gavin got up and followed the lieutenant when you on the other hand declined politely, still wanting to re-read the reports of your case, connor chased after them, making sure they weren't intoxicated too much. Well that leaved only you and nines in front of the laptop, you readed again everything from the report out loud so nines could hear you.
"a couple was found nearby Detroit playground, an android and a human, both were shot in the chest where the heart is stated, either the killer is a surgeon due to this kind of presision, or it's an android who scanned them"
You massaged your temples just like Gavin did earlier, it was infuriating, no clues, no witnesses, you were to the point 0 on this case, nines got up without you noticing and got you a cup of your favorite drink. You muttered a "thank you" before drinking it and looking at the screen again.
"detective, if you aren't feeling well you can go home and rest, I can work alone on this, plus, a good rest is essential when you want to achieve something"
You nodded and started to get up and gather your belongings when he stopped you in your track.
"wait I actually have a question before you go detective"
"yes what is it?"
No one spoke for like 5 minutes, he seemed to think before he was gonna ask what he wanted.
"don't you find it weird?"
"what?"
"that the couple was a human and an android?"
You thought a little about it, yeah it was a bit odd because androids didn't got their rights long time ago and still are scared or angry over humans for their loss, same for the other side, but they are exceptions after all.
"well laws are a bit weird recently but nothing state they couldn't be together"
Nines led spinned red and yellow, you looked at him when it hit you.
"you think they got killed because they loved each other?"
"that's a possibility, since the revolution, many people are still hostile on both side"
"yeah.. We should check the road cameras, maybe we could track a vehicle going in this area at the presumed death hour "
"that was what I was thinking, good conclusion detective"
You smiled and rushed a bit to him, he was still on the chair from earlier, you then kissed him on the forehead.
"you are a genius nines! We finally have a lead! I'm gonna send a message to hank and Gavin, I'm gonna go home now, see ya!"
Some blue tinted the android cheeks, he looked at you leaving the pretinct and touched his forehead where you kissed him, a warning going in front of his eyes.
Software instability ⬆️
He texted connor with his system and waited for his response.
"connor what is love?"

I played more SOTE today!! I have mixed feelings because today just happened to be pure RAGE because of my awful skill issue.. but at the same time I feel so ALIVE xD (two parter)
1) So first of all, I got back to Specimen Storehouse to finish whatever was that business with Ansbach and Freyja! She gave an interesting dialogue about how yeah honor and shit but what Radahn would actually like is to live so he could wage war forever 💀 Definitely the character of all time gghguj
2) So I decided to explore a little more of that Church District below before I continue to seek my way to upper area! Turned out that Tree Spirit did NOT die due to a bug..... but it did now. XD
And dropped edgy (literally) sorcery lol
3) NEW NAMED CHARACTER!!!!!!!
Yeah, I've been noticing that this area has Fire Knights with another variant of the head piece! I even had an idea to grind these guys for it, but I just felt as thought it'd be pointless. And I was right! This mask dropped from non-respawning enemy! So yeah, the fire zombies raising in this area were given lore, I was pleased by such amount to detail yet again 🤔
4) So I kept looking for the way back in the Storehouse, but took the turn I did NOT try to take, and ended up in that weird golden-black area on the map that has been making me curious for a while!
5) ....ъ_ъ So, I was running around, surprised by how empty it was, and even questioned whether it was pointless sort of? So I decided to just check the giant flower and.. ..... oh my fuuUCKING God.
6) So it was another time where I kept howling about how awful/unfair/hard/etc this battle was and wanted to quit except I didn't! You see, at first I was playing as usual, and the stage 2 was a surprise. But the LEVEL of my skill issue started to show up at its finest here, because I absolutely could not dodge its briars attacks and I barely managed to heal in time!
I had to die MANY times, learning from my mistakes and just trials what to do and slowly adapting.. You see, it SHOULD have been obvious that hitting the "face" was the most effective, but nope! I only figured many attempts later! Just as how """pointless""" critical hit before phase transition was not pointless at all! At least I learned to 1) block strike attack and roll magic attack 2) that I can't use magic so it'd be better to place all 14 flasks at Crimson 3) figured to summon mimic in a creative way; since it gets summoned in the equipment I had at THE moment of summon but AI can't be trusted with blocking normally, I summoned it while two-handing the weapon so it hits stronger and then got my shield back XD
7) .........
I swear, sometimes I regret not being able to stream, because y'all should have seen my reaction when it turned out that this enemy had THREE stages, not two...... :')
8) I actually died just just JUST the very last moment ;-; I screenshotted it, it is on PS for now, it was SOOO infuriating. I can't even explain how I resisted the urge to scream and throw my controller because that required inhumane willpower. But hell if I didn't feel ALIVE at that moment xD
9) AND I KILLED IT EVENTUALLY FGFGCGGB
^ Got genuinely surprised by this drop!
10) I came back at Storehouse, FINALLY, and THIS TRAITOR @val-of-the-north IS NO LONGER MY FRIEND!!!!1
I asked him about this symbol being here since as I said earlier, I assumed that the reoccurring symbol with a fire and a circle on flags and such found here and there represented Messmer and Rellana; an impression I've got because I first saw it in her castle!
....but then Val, this RAT, casually said that it is actually likely another symbol of Messmer: snakes rather than fire. And of course. God of course it makes much more sense. It is all over this Storehouse. Yes we found a shield Rellana used for the ritual to prove loyalty to the Erdtree once here, but the overlapping circles straight up coil like snakes. And yet you TRAITOR never corrected me when I wrongly assumed that the symbol of fire + two circles overlapping meant Messmer and Rellana being allies. Goddamit STOP LETTING ME LOOK STUPID ON PUBLIC *bonks you with the newspaper*
11) So after some running and collecting (got a golden spell that some Fire Knights use), I've found my way out and first ran into some really strong knight that used GRAVITY MAGIC! I attempted to fight him but like, no. Nope. So I left him for later, and Val recommended me to use 'O, Mother' gesture to finally open the secret passage to where I was actually looking.
12) And hoooo boy... I already suspected where this was going because even on the map there were depictions of Golden leaves (on the Finger Ruins) part.
It was THE spoilered area itself!
13) What instantly struck me was that I could SWEAR it had to be the exact same flowers as on the painting of 'healthy' Midra Manse. I did not have a good image as I hit it early by a mistake, so I asked Val to fetch me the image, annnnd....
Look, sure, it could simply be blue curtains and obviously just a 'normal' flora of this realm, so of course it still exists in THE one place Messmer didn't burn, but dead everywhere else. (Here because of Frenzy + no sunlight). But also Hornsent Inquisitors did bully Midra and his followers (which did lead to Frenzied Flame business), and Ymir mentioned something about Marika's roots being placed in madness? Who the hell knows anymore...
14) NOOOOO WAY, WHEN YOU GET TO THIS POINT, A FRAGMENT OF THEME OF MARIKA/RADAGON STARTS PLAYING ;-;
THE IMPACT
15) Definitely visiting this place by myself felt more impactful than simply reading/watching this part of the lore..
16) I got SO angry at the Tree Sentinel though that for the first time EVER I decided to try and fight while on Torrent! And it was so effective that it gave me an idea to not follow further today but go and get that boss' ass from earlier like this! Which was the start of a big waste of time, but perhaps I am getting ahead of myself.. -_-
(Will share in the next post because Tumblr doesn't respect the way I choose to share screenshots for the girls ( @heraldofcrow ))
#elden ring#elden ring dlc#sote spoilers#screenshots#gameplay log#sorry I am not very delighted with the idea to have my ass kicked by messmer yet#exploring optional bosses and side quests a bit for now#soon tho......

A Little Dusty
AN: Again, I know it’s late but just be glad I’m still tryna pump these out. I’m literally sooo obsessed with Prismo, the flat boi needs to be WRECKED! Anyways, here’s day 14, enjoy!
The Scarab would never admit it out loud, but being stuck in the Time Room with Prismo wasn’t as asinine as he’d first thought. He’s still getting used to his new form, but he manages to get by. And his new roomie was chill, all things considerer. He let him pick out his own room, offered fresh pickles any time he wanted, and most importantly, he didn’t care if the Scarab was actually doing his job.
Despite the hot tub, TV wall, and the computer Prismo introduced him to, he found himself getting bored and restless as the days dragged on. Each day like the one before, more or less. He was starting to understand why Prismo went and made an unauthorized universe. He understood, but that didn’t mean he had to stop cursing the wishmaster’s name for putting him in this mess.
It was one of those days when he longed for the outside world- to hunt down violators across the vast multiverse. But noooo, there was a good chance that might never happen again. He was busy dusting, glaring at Prismo from across the room. He was oblivious to the stare, completely engrossed in his work. The Scarab would watch as he’s hum and giggle to himself before typing away on the keyboard. Some times he wore a more serious expression, typing something out before shaking his head and deleting it. And other times he just stared at the screen, hands unmoving and frown etched onto his face. The Scarab was a little curious what he’d been working on, but he didn’t plan on asking.
He slowly made his way around the room idly dusting at nothing. He’d dusted only last week, but he needed something to keep himself busy. Now he stood beside Prismo, tapping his foot impatiently.
“Could you move? I’m trying to clean.”
Prismo paused and glanced around the room with a shrug. “Looks pretty clean to me Scrabby. Why don’t you take a load off?” he asked, brushing him off and returning his attention to the laptop.
“Unlike some people, I don’t like to leave things unfinished.” Prismo seemed to miss the subtle dig tossed his way and the Scarab huffed in annoyance. “Look, I already cleaned over there, so why don’t you go sit on that wall?” he asked, pointing over his shoulder. Prismo’s gaze didn’t leave the screen. “Prismo!” he yelled with a stomp.
Prismo glanced up for a split second. “Yeah?”
“Move!”
Prismo groaned loudly, looking at the Scarab with annoyance. “Dude, I’m in the zone right now. I just wrote like 10 pages in five minutes!” he bragged, going back to typing. “If I move now, it’ll throw off the whole groove I’m in.”
The Scarab was done.
He threw his hands in the air with an annoyed huff. “FINE, be that way! I’ll just- I’ll dust around you since you won’t move,” he growled out, but Prismo continued to type away happily. It was infuriating, if not cute. Wait, he did not just think that about Prismo of all people…
He resumed dusting with a huff, sweeping the feather duster over his head, working his way down. He was lost in thought and didn’t pay much attention to where he was sweeping, and his general annoyance towards the wishmaster meant he didn’t necessarily care if he dusted him in the process. But he certainly noticed when his duster trailed too close to Prismo’s side, making him spasm and squeal, darting across to the opposite wall, laptop forgotten.
“Wohoah, hey, you could’ve just asked me to move, no need to start dusting me,” he rambled, hoping to mask his nerves. The Scarab just stared at him in wide-eyed shock.
“I did,” he said bluntly. Prismo chuckled nervously, rubbing his neck.
“Oh, y-you did? Sorry, I don’t remember I tend to zone out when I’m busy.”
“So it would seem.” He looked down to the soft tool in his hand and back at Prismo, a sly smirk hiding behind his mask. He noticed that his feet were now resting in the spot he’d previously been, seeing as he jumped to the opposite wall. Now, he wasn’t stupid, he knew what just happened. But he could play dumb.
The Scarab resumed his dusting, humming to himself as he brushed over the tops his feet. Prismo shrieked, yanking his legs away and tucking them close to his chest. He stared at the Scarab with a wide, unblinking eye and gulped.
“You uh-“ he cut himself off and cleared his throat when his voice came out too high. “You scared me.”
“Really?” he squinted at him, walking closer and relishing in the way Prismo was slowly backing himself into a corner. “Because normally, only ticklish people are afraid of feathers.”
He couldn’t hope to contain his nervous laughter or the obviously flustered stuttering. “W-wha whaaaat? N-no way bro, that’s just silly,” he tried to brush him off, waving a hand in the air. “I mean, I’m flat! So, there’s really nothing to tickle, haha! …Right?”
The Scarab arched a brow. “You’re asking me?” Prismo stuttered again and yelped when the Scarab was suddenly standing next to him. Quite frankly, he didn’t know what to say.
“You can go back to cleaning now.” The low chuckle the Scarab let out really wasn’t comforting.
“Okay, if you insist.” Prismo was given no time to ponder before soft feathers brushed over his belly. Bubbly giggles start building up in his chest as he curls in on himself, doubled over where the two walls meet. When the Scarab started swirling the duster in tight circles across his tummy, a loud snort broke the dam, allowing his high pitched laughter to fill the Time Room.
“Scrahahabby whahat are you dohohoing?” he asked, hiding his growing blush behind a hand as he weakly swatted at him with the other.
“I’m doing what you said: cleaning,” he teased in a deadpanned voice, trying to act as though this wasn’t the most fun he’s had since his punishment began.
“Nohohot mehehe!” he squealed when he began targeting his ribs, causing him to dart to another wall for safety. The Scarab tutted and shoot his head.
“Poor Prismo… it would seem as though you’ve nowhere left to turn,” he taunted, twirling the duster triumphantly. He laughed when he noticed him glance at the trap door for a split second. “You’re not really gonna run away from a few feathers now, are you?” he asked smugly. Prismo’s blush grew darker as he failed to speak, crossing his arms instead.
“Well that’s not very nice,” he grumbled.
“Good,” the Scarab said bluntly before sitting down on Prismo’s ankles, trapping them. He barely had enough time to protest before dozens of soft fibers swept over his feet. His giggles raised in both pitch and speed, a few more snorts managing to slip through.
The Scarab had always scared Prismo. He had such an intimidating aura, and everything about him screamed ruthless killer. After living together for a while, he thought maybe he wasn’t so cruel after all, but as he laid there laughing at his mercy, he thought that maybe he hadn’t been so far off with his initial judgment.

Okay, so this is something I have been thinking about a lot lately as I've worked on different fanfiction the last couple of months. And this is a big pet peeve of mine in canon fiction, so please don't hate me.
I cannot stand when an entire character's identity becomes only about their love interest when they had a perfectly fine identity before. Like, after a certain point, their only reason for living is their partner and NOTHING else matters but them. It has ruined two characters for me beyond repair and has honestly made them annoying. While other people are able to look past it (good for them), I genuinely cannot because it takes me out and all I want to do is shake them out of that state.
While Kristoff is my biggest example of this trope, a more frustrating annoyance has become Claire Nunez from the Tales of Arcadia universe. She had a life outside of Jim, a life outside of the magic stuff, in Trollhunters. She had friends, she had her own relationship with Toby outside of Jim, and she was a genuinely smart character. She wasn't my favorite, but I got used to her.
But then Wizards happened and all that matters is Jim and the magic stuff. While her learning magic from Douxie was honestly pretty fun, I like their dynamic and how it progresses, what started with the Shadow Staff and Morgana's possession. The Jim focus, however? Ohhhh boy, that made her absolutely insufferable to me. Most of her dialogue in Wizards is about him, so much so that I remember there actually being COUNTERS about all the times she yells out "Jim" in Wizards alone. And what makes that even more infuriating is that is her final form.
Aside from learning magic, Claire in the movie is mostly reduced to Jim's girlfriend/support and nothing more. Her last words to him are all about "make me fall in love with you again," which goes against the beginning of their love story completely. Because Claire was attracted to him, but he was always acting weird and it made her suspicious before she learns to trust him. Sooo, yay, thanks for violating your past self's free will, Claire!
Anyways, that's it for now. This has been building up for years and I just needed to vent for a second.

Hey! I know it’s a bit late but I just saw your polls and your recent own opinion and thought I’d add my two cents. Scum Villain is my personal favorite and tgcf is my least favorite. Like many others, tgcf was my first danmei and first mxtx novel and svsss is my most recent.
I liked tgcf but it didn’t really feel like anything was happening, the pacing was very slow and a lot of the arcs felt really disconnected from eachother (which makes sense considering the scale and all the characters but..) a lot of the arcs that heavily featured side characters didn’t really grab my attention as well as, for example, the Yi City arc from mdzs did. I tried to latch onto the characters, I really did but they just didn’t leave much of an impact on me at all, which is strange because pretty much everyone in svsss interested me.
While svsss may not be perfect, it was just so engaging! i read the first 3 books in two weeks and I had so much fun! I felt so much! sy’s stupidity (affectionate) was just sooo infuriating in all the right ways and his relationships with the cast were super fun! There was definitely a clear progression of events and thinking and just a huge looming of stakes (even though a lot of them were just made up in sqq’s head). The character development too! Svsss was just a delight to read. So many of the side characters are just so amazing too: sqh and mbj have become some of my all time favorites and just all the extras were so good!
Anyways I just have so much love for svsss and I guess I just didn’t connect enough with tgcf. Thanks for reading :)
hi! i agree with everything you’ve said!
i read the books in the order of mdzs -> tgcf -> svsss and i didn’t expect to enjoy sv the most at all considering I had initially liked mdzs due to its horror and tragedy aspects. Tgcf had plenty of tragedy + some horror but as you said, the characters were somewhat unstimulating.
although i do feel the need to give a shoutout to QuanYin. That sidepair actually had me invested the most out of all the other side characters in hob. it’s a shame the fandom tends to sleep on them (i’m guilty i need to draw them Soon!!)
i think what i love about sv is that it’s more of a ‘show don’t tell’ book compared to tgcf. Tgcf took ages explaining things that didn’t need to be explained.
Moshang were barely even in the main story and yet the “Fuck! he can’t fly!” scene had me laughing for literally half an hour and fully believing in moshang supremacy!! mxtx did that with only a few lines during the final showdown!!! and yet we had an entire arc for beefleaf that only made me interested in the sibling dynamic between shi qingxuan and shi wudu 😩
i know sv has its faults—all the books do—but i do think it gets a more of a bad rap than it deserves.
thanks for sharing :)
#i guess we’ll always be in the minority but maybe that’s not a bad thing!#after all hob fandom can be pretty intense at times while sv is so chill most of the time#answered#anonymous#long post

WHAT THE FUCKKKKK
No bcs I could litterally go on a rant on why bfidi/bfdia are sooo much better than bfb and tpot (IMO) cuz what the actual flip
Ermm so for starters bfdi is litterally the starting off point!! You don't have bfb or tpot without having bfdi first. And it's the only season so far the finished like an actual season with all the original cast members not being split up.
I love bfdi/bfdia BECAUSE of its like,,,rawness ig?? Like how organic it is. The two shows are passion projects and you can tell!! Not to say that tpot and bfb aren't, but they kind of loose some of that raw value that you find in bfdi and bfdia. And ik some people are like "oml it's just ur nostalgia🤓 he he hem hem" like yeah, I first watched bfdi/mainy bfdia when I was a kid and though the memories of it aren't clear, they are still prominent. I litterally started saying "jk kidding" because of pencil. (Among others quotes) And I feel like I still remember those quotes and little scenes now because they're just more memorable!! And that's bcs they're just better imo!! And i think theyre better because of how much creativity was poured into it!!
I don't wanna be that person that hates on new fans but like, alot of them tend to shit of bfdi and bfida and it's just so infuriating because those are the ones that are a product of true passion and creativity!! and yeah, maybe the humor isn't funny to you. Ok, whatever. It was a long time ago. And maybe the dialog is too "cringe" for you. Ok, I get that. Again, this was back in the 2010s. But it's being able to push past that and recognize that the two shows are just a product of true imagination and hard work is most important!!
Just going on a tangent here but object shows to me are expected to not be produced Iike a regular cartoon and have some errors and mistakes in them because that's how you know it's all just for fun. And I just feel like bfb and tpot loose that. Its fun, but it's not bfdi/bfdia fun. And I think this is because it became more of a career than a little side thing. Which sounds weird because it would be a dream to make object shows full time but then it's not something you can escape to anymore. IDK IF THIS MAKES SENSE BUT I HOPE IT DOES LOLOL
But yeah, disregarding bfdi and bfdia and calling them worse than their newer counterparts is disregarding what brought tpot and bfb to life in the first place.
EDIT: I also would like to add that I'm not hating on anyone who likes tpot or bfb more!! Not at all!! It's more so the people who love the newer two so much that they hate on the ogs!! And uhh since this post seems like a big new gen hate post, I'll also add that I love bfb and tpot as well! Obviously not as much as bfdi and bfdia, but I really enjoy how the two newer shows actually like, have deeper character developments! I loved watching characters I grew up watching get more screentime AND more depth!! Erm maybe I'll make a post on what tpot and bfb do right and why I think ppl like them more lolz
Anyway bye!!!!
NOT A HATE POST PLZ PLZ DONT TAKE IT THAT WAY😭😭😭
#rant post#rant#decap speaks#bfdi#bfida#no hate to anyone who likes tpot or bfb more!!#its just the ppl who hate on bfdi/bfdia#hot take#really hoping i dont get flamed for this lol#also adding that this is more directed to bfb post-split and tpot (excluding tpot 9 i loved tpot 9!!!

about to read Onestar's Confession for the first time, please wish me luck I am Not Hopeful about where this is going to go
Don't worry too much, it's not Infuriating. It's mostly just boring. Most of all it just feels like ot makes Onestar less interesting, which is a crime
Keep an eye out for these though;
How the narrative feels the need to add Brushpaw and Melody to "justify" bigotry, so that it's more "logical" that Clan cats reject them and Firestar is sooo special
Bad pacing, note how often things begin and end unceremoniously
The incredibly uncomfortable confirmation that Crow is Onestar's nephew, and Heather and Breeze are FCOR, and that Whitetail was Onestar's apprentice
Darktail Born Evil, My Purpose Is To Kill Him
How they decided that part of Winds of Change where Firestar saves Onewhisker from Mudclaw was actually Whitetail instead

You just did the impossible. You got me to shed a tear over a fanfiction of all things (Violently smashed down soapbox and jumps onto it then takes a deep breath) "I DEMAND YOU WRITE AN ALTERNATE HAPPY ENDING VERSION OF THIS CHAPTER, AND WITH MORE SHAOFENG BEATING UPPING TOO! YOUR GHOST KING COMMANDS YOU!"
Okay so in my defense I was left unsupervised...
IN MY DEFENSE...
I actually spent ages on the fence about how to handle... THAT. Like... I considered keeping him alive but comatose. Then, he could've been brought back, but powerless (politically) so that he wouldn't be much of a hazard to society and balance anymore :'D
... But then I wrote Part 2's final arc.
And I was so mad. He just made me so mad. I found myself so infuriated by what I was writing that I just... made up my mind. I thought maybe I'd change tunes eventually, but heck, if I managed to get this BASTARD to a point where I felt like MAYBE keeping him around would be okay...? That would be enough of an achievement on its own, if his death doesn't feel like a reward but like a low blow. Seriously, if after the DEEPEST LOWS he sank to, any of us still grieved for him when he kicked the bucket? Well...
It meant I would've done my job as the stubborn writer who always hoped she could take an irredeemable bastard like Ozai and actually flesh him out into a complex asshole whose death would not feel like a triumph.
😬
I'm not gonna lie, I didn't expect to see so much grief for him XD if anything, I've had the most uncanny situation going on lately. I'm hardly immune to hesitation and self-doubt... but it's been A WHILE since it hit me as hard as it has these days. I was sooo nervous about posting this arc, wondering if anyone but me would find it satisfactory...
This, after YEARS of being perfectly confident that I was headed to the ending I've been building up towards.
So. Ha. It's been an emotional rollercoaster.
But if the main point of agony for readers right now is wishing Ozai's downfall hadn't come around as it did? I think I can finally breathe easy again, haha.
Sooooo... yeah. The AU where he's not straight-up dead but comatose and got brought back years later did exist in my brain and maybe one day I can write out more of how it would've turned out, if I had stuck with that concept. But first I'd rather you guys see how things turn out this way, and then I'll explain things :'D
Also, maybe we can blame Ursa a lil for his death because she partially convinced me that this would work due to a future development involving her...

I'd love to hear about number 7, 15 and 21 from Secondary Character Ask 💙
07. Character you didn’t initially like/love but have now warmed up to
There's not one I can directly think of but August kind of... He was so infuriating to me in s1 specifically but his presence didn't annoy me as much in s2 and he even has some pleasant moments in it and I found him and his storyline even more interesting and intriguing in s3. I wouldn't say I like him as a person but I like him as a character and he has grown on me in a way.
15. Adult character whose teenage backstory would make the best spin-off series
This isn't anything new but Kristina. It would be sooo interesting to see her as a young girl (I can imagine her being pretty similar to Wille) and what her life was like as Crown Princess at Hillerska. I always wonder about her experience growing up and what her relationship with her parents was, especially her father, who was king and what the monarchy was like back then and what has changed since then and what her feelings and thoughts about it were. I can see her as resolute and goal-oriented but also soft and warm in ways that has slowly disappeared over the years. And she used to have fun canonically lol (maybe she even was known as a bit of a party princess in her days).
Also imagine young Pernilla August in this, it would be amazing! Oh, I wish we could go back in time so this spin off series could actually happen with her.
21. Most underrated character/ship/actor overall
Character: Sara. She is in the main cast but she is still underrated. And hated more than some other side characters so Sara it is.
Ship: Sara/August. Again, they are one of the main characters and main pairings but for that fact they are barely acknowledged and disproportionately hated. I don't really ship them strongly either but they are honestly such an interesting and kinda sweet pairing that I think deserves to be talked about and explored in depth more.
Actor: I don't wanna name another person from the main cast but maybe Nikita? I feel like we don't talk about her enough, she's so good.
Every one of the side characters actors is so good as well but I can't think of one I find specifically underrated. They all deserve recognition and many great acting opportunities in the future.
#i'm sorry it takes so long for me to write these lmao#ask#sunnyelfs#thank you 💙#secondary character ask game

I see your burst of WW love and desire for asks, so:
What do you think of the WW family?
Oof, see my thing is that I’m just like not so into the wonderfamily as I wish I was. It’s like “oooh, there’s more character they’re going to push my pet peeves of writing WW with” it’s my secondary family under the Batfam but it’s not nearly as established as the batfam and it lacks a lot of foundation.
Anyway, let’s go one by one.
Cassie Sandsmark. Ugh, I really, really wanna like you but her character infuriates me because a lot of the time her whole plot in a comic will be literally boy drama and the writers will water her down to boy drama. I hate that writers don’t realize it’s okay for pretty female characters not to have to DATE SOMEONE. I know Kon was treated as endgame but he’s not. She has to escape that relationship and she DID and I like that version of her much better. People might be irked that she’s more fem but that version of her character was treated as “Stronger” y’know until she got back with Conner just to break up again. It’s annoying.
I also don’t really want her to be THE Wonder Girl which she was treated as for a while until recently.
Artemis, I like her personality. I like how strong she is and I like that for a Wonder Woman character and then they ruined it by putting her in pointless romance.
Yara Flor, I loved her but her comics are a bit messy, at least at first and I don’t know if they’re going to continue them because of Trinity. I thought she was sweet but she actually seems more prissy which I kind of prefer.
Trinity. I hate this. I don’t really like her actually, I’m sorry. I don’t like that she’s being treated as a character entirely groomed to be Wonder Woman especially when she’s her daughter. A mantle should be something YOU WORK FOR, not something you’re born into, etc. Her existence also kind of interferes with Jon and Damian’s story, which I hate, she also takes away from the other Wonder Girls and what their place may be.
Donna Troy, I love her, I love Donna Troy sooo much, at times I get that same excitement to see her as a I do Wonder Woman and she’s such a warm and wonderful character. I just hate how messy her backstory is.

I remember that you made nsfw headcannons for Moge-ko sooo....I honestly afraid to ask but can you do same for Fem Fumus?
[ ♡ / ♢ ] fem!Fumus x Reader NSF.W HCs.
a/n: it's oddly cute... in a sadist's own whimsical sort of way... :')
»»————-———— ♡ ————————-««
✧; our god, lady fumes is an interesting case—cruel, capricious, and dark with an appetite for the suffering of others. a demeanor so diabolical you sometimes think of her as a devil rather than god. no matter how much pain she inflicts onto you, your heart always skips a beat both in elation and fear when you see her again the next day after a particularly terrible night of pain and drawn-out (mostly physical) anguish.
✧; she likes to 'draw' (more accurately, carve) patterns into your legs and stomach with a knife or a scalpel. and later use a cigarette lighter to sterilize the area with fire, just so it's visible for the following couple of days. only for her eyes and her enjoyment, though. she learns the most sensitive parts of your body, so she can put out her cigarette on them. burning them on your tongue, throat, and thighs get the most amusing little noises out of you. of course she backhands you across the face if you get too loud. it grates on her ears.
✧; it's not all cigarette burns and scalpels with her, even if she more often than not finds the 'foreplay' with sharp objects more fun than the actual sex with her darling. so it usually all ends before it can even begin. but, not all the time.
✧; she makes you pleasure her, first and foremost. your head will stay between her legs, eating her out, and you won't be let up until you make her come. she sighs, and degrades you, about how your performance is so lousy, how slow, and inept you are at it. but she grabs your locks and tugs at them not-so-gently. it's clear indicator how she actually feels about it. how much she likes it.
✧; when you've been going at it all night, you barely get any rest or shut-eye when first rays of sunlight outside her mansion shine through the windows. she doesn't kick you out her designated sex bed, but lets you linger for a while.
✧; deciding you've fulfilled your duties for the night, you quietly lean over the edge of the headboard, reaching for a white shirt and a bra—but her voice cuts through the thick air of silence as she speaks;
"are you going somewhere?"
"i... no, i'm n-not."
"well, i'm craving for something sweet, so..." fumes ponders, "hm... go and bake a cake for me."
"a cake...? oh, y-yes, o-of course," your mouth moves faster than you can think, "is there a... a, um, particular flavor you'd prefer, lady fumes?"
"hmm, make it chocolate this time. with truffles." she orders, "and stop stuttering. it's infuriating. you'll speak clearly when you're addressing me. is that understood?"
you nod, "y... yes, lady fumes. of course." before hastily making your way out of her chambers, then through the long hallways.
✧; thankfully no one was occupying the kitchen at this time (especially not taffy, throwing dirty looks your way whenever he saw you.) and you could be alone. no matter what you were or are doing, there was no getting away from her. if your lady comes to the same room you're in, there's a chance she'll pull you away from the cooking and fuck you over the counter instead. maybe.
✧; you shake your head as you begin rummaging through the drawers and cupboards... 'uh, flour, cocoa powder, milk...' you think it over. what a way to start off at dawn. you'll probably be put on supervision duty with the lower-ranking angels later—
✧; a little while passes by as you do your thing in silence, trying to avoid thinking of anything aside from the task at hand. you hear footsteps from the threshold of the doorway—heels echoing against marble ground, which means—
swiftly turning around with an exclamation, "l-lady fumes, your cake i-isn't done yet. sorry, i'll get—"
"be quiet."
she does exactly what you predicted earlier. you don't get a say in, before you're being shoved backwards and bent over the counter, wrists bound together over your head, a gloved hand hard on your back.
"lady fumes—"
"i told you to keep quiet. can't you listen to instructions?"
shoving her fingers down your throat, you nearly gag at the rough intrusion. catching your breath hastily, all you can do is lay there and let her have you in any way she wants. aside from being a little afraid of her, you're not whining too much as long as she isn't holding a pair of scissors or a lit cigarette in her hands.
you're yanked bare below the waist and there's a different kind of pressure in between your legs. her hands are busy holding you down, you immediately assume she's decided to switch a certain 'part' of hers to ravage you over the shining, granite surface.
your god's curt, demanding voice snaps you out of your dazed state.
"it's still early. no one will come in here if you keep your mouth shut, so, you know what to do."
