Got jokid in the brain again... For all that is Bad with Okumura's arc, it did give me ideas for another oneshot with Morgana and Kaito (their friendship is growing on me...). And I also have another idea too for Kaito and Akiren this time but that'll be in the back for now cuz the idea is basically a comfort fic where Akiren is finally out of that hellhole of an interrogation room and Kaito goes to visit him (ngl tho Kaito would've tried all that he can to get Akiren outta there as soon as the cops grabbed him but tbf, story wise, that'd just be pretty "tame.")
Like, Kaito saves him, end of story. I want! The hurt! (but god also like pls can akiren get treated alrdy hes been in that interrogation room for like a century) And I want the comfort after the hurt! The only thing that can stop Kaito from saving Akiren is if he's in Some hurt himself, like if he was in the middle of the heist when Akiren got caught in another part of Japan. Imagine that, in one part a Phantom Thief got caught, and in another part a Magician Thief was nearly caught (possibly cuz Kaito was tryna rush everything to get to Akiren in time but alas! that only got him in bigger trouble instead), that would've been the most memorable time for Japan in that world.
Unfortunately for em though, Kaito's skillset is most effective for the cops in reality so he can't get caught that easily. So yeah, anyway I can't write that idea out yet cuz I haven't reached the point in which AKIREN FINALLY GETS HIS TREATMENT.
#aria rants#i know i said that caiowe is my all-time favourite ship and its kinda funny how despite that#i only have jokid in the brain. tbf tho theres a lot of caiowe fans out there which provides the content of it#im practically the captain of jokid thats been founded cuz of that one artist that drew em together#which just made my brain go into overdrive into basically hopping aboard a ghost ship and giving it#a physical form by feeding it myself. im the only one creating content for jokid#im like a hunter thats also a gatherer thats also a cook thats also a baker--#basically im making my own meals here. oh the agony of that! but its also fun cuz i love jokid anyway#caiowe gets my ao3 acc tho. jokid only got my tumblr bro. maybe when im not#shy enough id post the oneshots for jokid i have here to ao3 but like-- theres...#theres a lot of magic kaito fans out there its kinda terrifying. so maybe in the future...

MY OPINIONS ON DRAKE!!!!! (The ship, not the person)
In all honesty, I don't really see why people ship drake or why it's even that popular. No disrespect to the people who do ship it tho, there are lot of talented creators who do ship them, so no hate to them!
I just feel like the ship makes both of the characters feel more, flat I guess? Their whole character dynamic was a unhealthy friendship that's was built on lies, so to ship them romantically feels really pointless, even if they ship the characters in way that's unhealthy (like drew being a yandere or something or even worse toxic yaoi).
Or if someone ships them platonically, again it just doesn't make sense to throw the original character dynamic away. I'm not saying that people can't have fun with a series, infact it's completely fine to not ship a canon ship.
But they usually dislike or hate on the canon ships or even the entire tmf series for being boring or flat in terms of writing, witch is true to an extent, but the original character dynamic of Jake and Drew is atleast a bit better than just romantically or platonically shipping the two.
In my own opinion the series IS pretty flat in terms of writing, BUT theres no point in making the series even more boring by just adding a bunch of toxic yaoi to the fandom. If you think the tmf series is boring along with it's canon ships, that's completely valid! And I understand. But I don't get why you have the make the series even more flat along with slandering other ships, even though drake is no better.
IMPORTANT: I'm not hating on anyone! I just want to see more content with Jake and Drew that isn't shipping them or them being all wholesome. I think the tmf fandom just has a really bad case of shipping every. Single. Character. And because of that no one makes any content of any other types of dynamics.

hiiii pluvi, nyla here! for your one piece and hq selfships: 💞, 📝, 🌦️ aaaaand 💌! thanks in advance! i'll have fun answering your asks too uwu
📝: How would your story in canon go? How would you influence the events of the original story?
Shanks — as of rn i dont influence the story tbh...... we'll have to re-address this in a decade when we get more red-haired pirates and after shanks dies KJHSDFJKHB but for now im just kinda lingering whenever theres rhp moments. my first appearance is the luffy wanted poster scene and i make a lil comment to mihawk (smthn like "always lovely to see you hawk-eyes" yk ambiguous enough), then im in the bg during the bit where rockstar calls shanks, im missing during marineford and then i show up during whitebeard/ace's funeral and im consistently w the red-haired pirates from then on. during the wano bit i finally get another line agreeing w lime juice after he mentions barto, then a passing goodbye to marco. im shown towards the side of the bar scene in elbaf reading a book and then im in the big wide-shot as theyre approaching the red force; the one "big" change is that im the one who hands the info on kidd off to shanks (bc that is Technically my official job as communications officer) and hongo and i have a tiny exchange. oda also talks abt me a bit in an sbs, he says im the only officer who hasnt met luffy and mentions im from a new world island, n says i joined the crew five yrs prior to the present
Kuroo — another one where i have minimal impact on the canon LOL but he and i r coworkers to lovers soooooo i only show up at the very end!!! i think im a recurring character in the final timeskip match chapters, i appear four or five times w the final time being w kuroo's appearance and described as his colleague. maybe later on theres an extra sketch of us grabbing a drink in our work uniforms and it sparks hella shippers
💞: Aside from with your f/o, who else would you commonly be shipped with? Why?
Shanks — i think any of the other red-haired officers is common but lime juice is the go-to for me simply bc of that one interaction in wano LMFAOOOOOOOO and then hongo later on for the elbaf interaction pfft. beckman is also a regular name in a "pair the spares" sense but icl i dont think hes ever spoken to me in canon (simply bc i do not have much screentime) & mihawk is also Somewhat up there again be of my one line. OH AND MARCO..... i think when he leaves the ship after wano he passes me and does an ambiguous hug/hand to the arm thing that has ppl like wtf was that 🫣
Kuroo — i think kenma bc im shown in the bg of a few of his shots!!! and i think theres a panel or two of me interacting w ushijima so theres a few instances of that...... theres like one super dedicated crackshipper of me and iwa LOL
🌦️: Would you be accompanied by mostly fluff or angst fanfics? Both? Explain why.
Shanks — ohhhh a mix.... i think whenever im involved its either relatively low-key fluff or a super in-depth character deep-dive. im often used as a catalyst for mishanks or shuggy or any manner of other m/m ships tho which means ig its angst for shuvi 😔
Kuroo — def fluff, but also a bit of angst. in a similar light a lot of fics im in have me being a catalyst specifically for kuroken, and there r probs just as many poly fics as there are of just me n kuroo, but by n large the Actual shipfics are cutesy work romance vibes
💌: How would your dynamic be portrayed? What might people focus on most? Any misconceptions?
Shanks — honestly the dynamic is varying bc theres just not much content of me or us interacting as of yet, just the tiniest bit of banter and then a very professional back n forth. shanks tends to be portrayed as Down Bad in ships so i think that is accurate, but i do think people generally overemphasize the captain/subordinate thing and a lot of the nuance wrt the nature of my joining the crew is not considered fully until my full backstory is discussed
Kuroo — sjhdfusbfv fuckboy kuroo my beloathed....... but i feel its not That bad. idk our dynamic is soooo Normal obvi its a v subtle ship/only vaguely hinted at so the specifics of our strangers-to-friends-to-lovers slow burn is not known,,,,,, i think generally the dynamic is far faster and not drawn out in fanon. people focus more on the working together, boss/secretary vibe (when i rlly quit my job right as we get together rip) and write us as having a very nuclear family i think.
send in some selfship questions!
#ask.🌧#themultifandomnerd#ss.🌧 tetsuvi#ss.🌧 shuvi#i dont know how i feel abt it but#re: influencing the one piece story i Do consider a storyline where the kid pirates basically hold me captive for a bit#like right when they get in that mess in wano whereupon its just too much of a risk for shanks to get into a spat w kaido on his home turf#so i end up in this strange mentor role for the kid pirates for a bit??? as the wano insanity goes down#and marco flies me back to the red force at the end. n the elbaf thing happens as canon anyway#i just have to see how canon goes before i solidify that...... its complicated#i also consider a situation where i end up joining the straw hats for an arc!!!! but i dont want it to be egghead or elbaf so thats another#possibility i will evaluate as canon continues#but the dynamic of being the only rhp officer who didnt know luffy as a kid -> the only one who met him as an emperor is rlly cool#and IF the shanks/luffy strawhat/red-hair pirates conflict rlly IS a davy-back fight the idea of shanks having to win me back is. very good#also additionally funny if its a three-way davy-back fight w cross guild and buggy nabs me just to piss off shanks#KUHADFJH im just rambling this is so goofy#but anyway

Zaimoku as a failed duo is so funny to me bc it really does bleed into the group dynamic a lot, since both Todomatsu and Karamatsu are often the odd ones out.
They didn't even rly get along in s1 despite literally trying to, and quickly stop associating with each other despite literally having been assigned each other's name buddy since birth, and also having been besties as kids. We dont even find out why exactly they fall out in the movie, theyre already basically estranged despite Karamatsu clearly being sensitive, and Todomatsu having actively helped him with his acting career (the saw parody episode ncnsns) like they were two sweethearts, but totty basically alternated between choro (ideal bc he could kangaroo and be tolerated), ichi (who he shared friends with), and oso (badbadbad!) But Karamatsu was not an option!
Even in s2 theres not a specific reason why they fell out and continued to be estranged, they actually have a lot of parallels in the things that happen to them, and their relationship with totoko. Theres the au in osoma that shows that they could be at least friendly towards each other despite their differences in sensibility (not shipping tho)
In s3 it makes sense that Todomatsu basically hates him now, bc of the cashier but ig im just kind of surprised by how long and hard he's held a grudge. And the fact he's completely taken over Ichimatsu's initial role as tormentor? Ichimatsu rarely goes out of his way to have an outburst at Karamatsu at this point meanwhile totty literally every opportunity he gets, including making opportunities just apathetically puts Karamatsu in harms way.
He just really kind of hates him? And that's a little uncharacteristic for Todomatsu who tends to get over stuff by the end of the episode, or only brings it back up if someone else does (like the christmas ep where ichi was like what happened to those girls from your job)
I think it probably says a lot actually about how much their fight over the cashier bothered totty? He's still clearly not over it, especially bc this behavior is consistently and exclusively towards kara. Like kicking him and making him fall when going to the bathroom, but letting Osomatsu potentially cut in line, or pushing Karamatsu during the hipipo movie.
I'm not even sure if Karamatsu himself holds any animosity towards totty or realizes why he's suddenly being singled out like that. I can't say what happened and why they were both rejected, but its very clear that somewhere between
This Totty
And this Totty
His confidence and expectations on getting into a relationship have drastically changed. I kinda wonder if he feels especially betrayed by Karamatsu, who's been distant from him bc of their communication issues, and bc this was the first time in the show not only did his brothers support *him* when he wanted to ask someone out, but bc Karamatsu is supposed to be his best friend from birth.
Even in the scene above, its Todomatsu who's actually listing things he liked, even if theyre superficial, meanwhile all Karamatsu is saying is "me too" and Todomatsu as the central character for the episode it makes sense that he'd feel the stronger of the two, but ig to me i see it and the fact hes still angry about it, as like deeper than that.
Because he doesn't really hold a grudge against anyone else. The only other situation i can think of is him making fun of choromatsus brown hair in s2 during his quiz. Like how does Karamatsu, who he's not even super close with in s1 still tie as his favorite brother, with his clearly favorite brother Osomatsu? I think it hurt him a lot more than he said it did, bc he didn't hit Karamatsu first and was initially content to just sit there together after their double rejection.
Anyways i dont think Todomatsu's more deserving of love than Karamatsu, and I don't think he's a better person either. I post about them a lot bc I feel a lot of direct (its onesided tho) competition with karamatsu fans, since for a long time i pretended to be one bc i wasnt confident enough in my own skills to write for Todomatsu, but also bc a lot of totty hate used to come from karamatsu fans, who especially judge Todomatsu based on his behavior towards karamatsu rather than the person he is.
I think karamatsu probably does deserve to have all the freaks who wanna freak him, but ig the thing i wanna say is I don't blame Todomatsu for hating him now, and to me, I love Todomatsu the most. And he deserves all of my love. Even if theres a few of us who would choose him over anyone else, or even if its rly just me, I want Totty to know somebody loves him just as he is without any additional qualifications, for him to change, or for him to be different.
But thats sappy and silly so im gonna end this post very classy and with decorum
#assigned unlovable at birth#hes my freaken babydoll googoo bear i want him i want him todomatsu pleases feel my sincere emotiona thru the screen i love u i loveu

I challenge you to make a tier list of your opinion on Ace Attorney ships >;)
Challenge accepted motherfucker >;))))
i did like 5 different lists cause not all them where complete enough to my tastes and then i found this MASSIVE tier list (with a lot of crack xdd) so i was able to do it, fortunally the nrmy week gave me some time to work on this and EVEN THEN some kinda obvious ones were missing so i had to edit them in from the other tierlists, plus stuff i made up lol
also, for it not be too long and mark very clearly my Heterosexual Bias, the list was divided in two, so let's start: (spoilers for investigations cause shih-na doest appear as shih-na)
The OTP category is very self-explanitory, so the second place is all other ships that i like and ship too just not as hard since i have OTPs for the characters already~~
Ohters I like and Im listening have varying degrees of crack but im still considering as potential ships to like seriously
the canon ships acting as a neutral divider, they are canon, you can't complain about that (or you can im just a tumblr post you can do what you want forever). if they arent higher is cause they are not as interesting or funny as the above ships, i still love them very much
then theres the absolute crack that i find amusing but couldnt take to ship it seriously and then ships that are either boring: too tame, lack spice, feel like avoiding being problematic was the priority instead of they'd be cute togheter; or ships that feel a bit too cruel for comfort and i percieve as no longer fun, but sad
this tier list didnt have ema/nahyuta but did have poly ships that included the three so there we go, the only het ships i dont like (2)
finally, the only gay ships i consider to be neat, silly funny friends-to-lovers not overly popular, very cool and epic
And now, the interesting one:
Rangu referenced and teased by canon joke ship goes first of course!
for real tho, there's friends to lovers OR rarepairs OR lawyer x assistant ships, being my go-to in het ships they'd rank higher here
Evil People In Love! What else can I say? When 2 people are down bad for each other and down for destroying everyone and everything whether for revenge or the lulz cause they're bad and they're doing it togheter it's just beautiful~!
anything crack or toxic in a funny way goes next
incest as a neutral divider since being gay is super normal thus uninteresting but adding the taboo incest spice that will NEVER be approved by society IRL will make me a bit more interested but like you know- neutrally
any boring crack or toxic in a unfunny way goes next
and finally we reach my real (yet still neutral) beef with the ace attorney shipping fandom, being the popular ships that get talked about ad nauseum and if you wanna talk about any other ship you get ignored at best or harrassed at worst. Overrated could be the perfect way to describe this ships as they're so oftenly rated over other ships when they're SO LAME AND BLAND AND BRING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. i am not criticizing originality, you know im unoriginal as well, but other fandoms have this something called ✨VARIETY✨ that EVEN IF the boring bland m/m ship still is number one ship of everyone and their grandmas, it'll still be in a relative equal number of fans and content (or directly opposite where Super Popular Ship has like 100 fans producing stuff and literally anything else has like <5, so you only have to block 1 or maybe 2 Super Popular Ships and then is smooth sailing full of variety~)
tl;dr they're annOyedTPs actually they're not bad, they are meh plus the over exposure can really grind someone's gears, second place being not AS popular thus annoying but still pretty much talked about and liked by many people as they are second places to ships in the normie zone
and finally finally what i actually dislike, shipping canonically het married characters with same-sex characters (and not in the funny way)(specially the gay best friend in love with their straight friend, my absolute belothed) or any flavor of enemies-to-lovers, whether it's a tame rivals-to-lovers or a legit hero x villian (stockholm syndrome can be fine but it depends on how its presented....or if it's... y'know funny) or same-age shipping where the characters maturity levels are SO DRASTICALLY DIFFERENT idk it feels kinda icky :////
In any case, i'm still answering asks for particular ships if y'all want a more in depth opinion ^w^

plz tell me abt ur wips
Im assuming this is about my art wips but!!!! I can't share those because its a birthday present and the person looks at my blog occasionally lol. All I draw/write about these days are ocs though. Theres at least 20 different sketches of lucifer specifically floating around. I did this whole thing last month where I kept drawing him as photos of awsten knight lmao
In terms of my writing though, I'm mainly working on three things right now [again all original work/oc stuff]
- This Time Last Year, its a breakup au between Giovanni [Anxious wreck of an engineer] and Miko [Loud + brash punk cartographer] where of course theyre exes and they're forced to get along during a Bachelorette party + wedding. Lots and lots of shenanigans, Miko is sorta dating Esme [sexy ambassador lady, tho bassist in this au] in the meantime but she's totally still into her ex, and Giovanni is an I.T guy that somehow became besties with a famous singer. Theres a solid side plot about Lucifer and Damien and them coming to terms with their relationship/them being more than friends with benefits. The first two chapters are actually already on ao3, but im rewriting ch2 and writing ch3 simultaneously.
- The Aptosis of a Supernova; Zombie au, my magnum opus that is still not written somehow. It has like one billion pages of plot in my brain. I can't possibly summarize it, but its mainly about Giovanni, Miko, and Damien, their struggles, and their relationships, and it cycles between their povs. Giovanni has to figure out how to reasonably survive as a pacifist in a zombie apocalypse, Miko learns to stop getting everyone collectively into danger, and Damien learns to let himself be around others and lean on people. Theres also a decent amount of content about Cynthia [Giovannis sister] and Alice [Mikos mom], and Lucifer, though he doesn't make an appearance until way later. Lots and lots of found family, people die, people murder, tragedy occurs, etc etc. Its a zombie apocalypse bad stuff happens. The first half of the story is about Miko/her moms traveling across the country to find her brothers who were shipped off to a military camp pre apocalypse, and they pick up Giovanni + his sisters along the way.
Im working on chapter 1 of it right now, and its almost done actually! Its super fun. I think Giovanni getting shot is the least eventful thing that happens in it.
- The third thing is just a fun lil Lucifer lore thing. I can't say a whole lot about it because its meant to be confidential [and alas the people who can't know about it also follow me][hi drrp] BUT its super fun to write. Lucifer in general is a fucking blast. Hes an asshole and a lunatic. I mean, being a daredevil is his entire shtick after all.
Im sure like none of this means anything to you because you have little to no idea who any of these characters are. but erm. I can also explain that too if anyone wants <3 I could go on for days about any of these guys really. But tysm for asking!!! <33

431 illustrates perfectly what Hori's fatal flaw as a writer is, imo. His problem is that he wants to please everyone, prove people who hate his work wrong by always contradicting them. But pleasing everyone is literally impossible.
And as much as he is "unreachable" directly, that doesn't mean hatred doesn't affect him or that he is immune to ego.
So all of that is a much simpler issue. He wants to draw stuff for fun, whatever he wants and enjoys, and have people like it. But he lets his ego get the best of him and acts impulsively, but doesn't want to regret it. That's not to take away from his talent, though that's clearly a problem.
the only reason this could make "sense" is if it happened so they could make izuku and ochako's relationship from scratch -bc they vanished their whole story together in the first place. They dont have a lot going on to begin with, so from a story POV I think the most obvious option is keeping it simple and not focus on it at all -give them more cute moments were its clear they both want to be together like that and confirming they started dating in hs. Theres no reason to make them drift apart like this when they were best friends, to the point they only started SEEING each other more after Izuku got the suit -maybe they want to make extra content about their relationship ignoring the previous interactions bc theres just not enough going on from izuku's side? It just look pretty platonic, and all of the sudden they have to talk after 8 years of not doing so -and worse part, neither cared. I have seen someone claiming they were "yearning" for each other so it makes sense, but it just doesnt -neither were thinking of that until other ppl pushed them to do it indirectly, and while I understand how some ppl could still see it as romantic, it truly is... lacking substance. In 8 years they didnt think about getting closer or hanging out more, even tho they were best friends and went thru war together -but we are supposed to believe they are in love with each other for 9 years and never even tried to get in contact in 7?? and why are izuku's feelings for her always a total mystery? Yeah shes special, but why would he consider her the most special person in his life when he was happily living it without even seeing or thinking about her? And yet he had time to hang out with All Might and ask Katsuki to be a guest teacher?
Theres a lot of regret in this thing, idk if its about creating the ship itself, not giving them actual romantic development, or letting 431 happen.
He really got in trouble after using the original BNHA finale for the movie -and he knew it back then already, he just wasn't able to make it better.
I would love to know how much the editor's influence affected the final volume tho, they changed many many things about what horikoshi wanted to create and limited his options in different arcs. Maybe the romance between them would be more bearable? Idk, they are too similar in too many ways for me to enjoy it, but if it was well done I wouldnt care about it and let it be in canon.

OH WOW you're still awake hiii!! one more then while i have the chance. also so honored to have an entire tag now. that has to be an accomplishment. and!!! 👀 what niche rarepair pls i will bite at anything 👀👀
i cannot remember what else i was going to say so i'll just follow that too. op is sooooo friendly to multiship and rare ships because all of the characters no matter how minor are so interesting. it's fun to fling two people together as a concept and figure out how they would interact. (even not romantically even!! just two dudes would they be mortal enemies would they be chill? would they be besties for life??)
case in point! i got into op already knowing of a law ship, and after i read dressrosa, that ship solidified in my mind. but!! i caught up to op during zou :) which, in my mind, was the height of sabo/law popularity. so my first ship for sabo was actually with law! crazy how things work out. so much time has passed that i don't hardly even think about them anymore.
ohhh wait i know what i wanted to say now. favorite aus for fic?? any you would love to see in acesabo fic? if i know of any, i'll grab one for you ;)
hi!! i am in fact awake!!! i wanted to write more for my exchange fic bc ive just started recovering from been sick the past few days and havent rlly had the chance. but i ended up putting it off until like 12am LOL. under the cut again i talk . a lot.
its fun you mentioned sabolaw because. the 'pair' in question for the au is actually ichiji/sabo/law. no i dont know why my brain latched onto this. yes im still kind of obsessed with it. the social media aspect of my shipfic is a lot about ichiji & the transition from being a child star (alongside his siblings) to a more casual internet ministardom. theres court drama bullshit. theres fangirl law. all three of them are transfem. its really special to me.
also YEAH EXACTLY!!! to your rarepair thoughts. in every fandom im in im a huge sucker for rarepairs that seem like complete nonsense. throw those characters whove never met into a room and LOCK IT! not always romantically yeah but honestly its a lot easier to like . find content of niche pairs through ship names than just trying to sift through a million posts in their maintags. tumblr wise, at least. i actually have a sideblog thats been since sort of abandoned dedicated to finding as much niche rarepair content for two characters (not always with each other, just those two in general).
a fun thought exercise ive done a few times also is getting a nice randomizer of characters im familiar with for a fandom and using it to pick out a few ships to figure out how theyd interact/if i could make a shipfic out of them. sometimes they click sometimes they dont but its a fun way to explore characters imo
whats ur fav lawship nowadays if you dont mind :3? i like a looot for him ill admit but im not particularly committed to any. as with the multishipper way. and thats fair (on the sabolaw bit)... first ships dont always last super long. they sure are fun to think back too tho ^_^
my favorite aus for fic... oh god thats a tough one. i already mentioned modern aus and this ones sort of a tangent off niche topic focus's BUT. fics that are set in a specific career (especially doctor aus & lawyer aus but genuinely i just rlly like looking at niche little details of someones career.) see also hobby focused aus! like uhh. gymnastics. ice skating. just stuff like that idk. and aus that are focused around like.. movie tropes/genres. crime noir detective aus, slasher horror aus.. especially fun when theres a spin on the original tropes but when you can see how much love someone has for the og concept is when it rlly shines.
none of those are super specific tho. um. i have a soft spot for superhero aus even when theyre really bad. fantasy aus are trickier but when they hit they hit rlly nice. (trying really hard to think ummm) thats about all i can think of rn? but it is pretty late so im for sure forgetting some.
NOW. as for acesabo specifically.. first off if you have any fic ud especially recommend id love to read them regardless of the tropes/ships/whatever. but. acesabo aus.. ohhhgh. i dont know!! ive read a lot of really cute modern aus with them. and im not USUALLY into soulmate aus flat out but i could really love a good acesabo soulmate au. it just suits them. theyre both characters i enjoy seeing as cute girls quite a bit. its kind of unfortunate im not really a fan of either of them as trans guys bc there is SO MUCH transmasc ace stuff out there. sorry my guy you have my name i cant live like that. all respects to people who do like that tho! i like them nonbinary multigendering it up . sometimes transfem sometimes just.. trans. sorry this is not the point.
aus... aus... shakes my head around. OH i would LOVE to see a roleswap with them. ive thought abt that before and its kinda beautiful. i do also love a good polyship with them both! what elseeee. oh i didnt mention it earlier when we were talking tropes but political drama bullshit is soooo fucking good. for acesabo also! but im pickier with them with it bc i feel like it tends to get too whumpy/focused on misery. which isnt rlly my thing personally. gotta be a careful balance. i like aus where theyre both in the same 'group'; being both revolutionaries or both pirates or whatever.
i hope this actually answers your question lol i realize i went on a bit... but yeah. have a nice night if youre headed offline urself ^_^! ill be on for a while longer likely but i take so long to write these asks it might be pointless
#jesus i talk a lot. SORRY! i apologize every time but will i ever stop? no.#asea tag#also yuup congrats on the tag! i like to give ppl a tag if i want to refind their asks/posts later OR i want to show them certain posts i r#dt-posts

DvZ screenshot time!! Meant to share these earlier.
I will make a masterpost explaining what DvZ is to ppl unfamiliar but short: RP game done currently on streams with the content creator Rawb, where players from the discord can potentially play in multiple rounds focused on killing zombies, building keeps, and RPing other side stories along with Rawb! (he plays the character Bruce Willakers) Its very community oriented and very fun.
So here are pics from the last stream, i got into all three games.... i have little context to provide but i may post a few of my own clips as i recorded (none of my own commentary tho)
theres a LOT
first screenshot! start of the stream. all of us (80-100 players) waiting on the ship to get going. fyi, the ship travels with knockback. if you arent sitting you will actually fly off and die.
flying down, getting oil.. challenge for this one was Bruce stating he heard building a keep out of scaffolding would be a good idea (it isnt) and we were divided on this so, it was to be divided in two. one side stone, one side scaffolding. i picked scaffolding (bad idea).
on the stone side, glue shop someone made- glue needed for stone walls (special users get assets sometimes! unique and made from prior RPing). included a much later picture from a different session with their ad too.
maid cafe & bomb cafe
gobos. monsters.
...
and then i died.... session 2! back on the aircraft
this time we were doing into the depths of a corrupted cave with a keep already built, tasked with using a tool to get rid of the corruption. if you touched it you would turn into a zombie. during this time as well, some key members were to be promoted to knights too!
other funny things: as we went across the bridge to the cave, someone made a toll booth part way. and then multiple other people built MORE toll booths ahead of us. it was lightening speed, idk how they were so quick to the bit. and then someone did it AGAIN in the cave.
after a bit of work, it was time for the knighting, which we werent allowed to join- but can be seen on the stream. but here is all the people gathered to get tped!
aaaand onto the last session!
before it started someone said in chat "how much to make zombies one hit" rawb said $100. well guess what happened. someone then asked "how much for dwarves to have 5 second cool down to revive" well guess what happened. (fyi dwarves cannot come back as dwarves again for up to 15 minutes. it was now changed to 5 seconds. meaning all dwarves could return immediately instead of needing to be mobs for a while, but all AI zombies would one hit. CONSTANT DEATH.)
Dani (admin) on the spot made a death count bar for fun.
we danced a little before we left
it was chaotic. the best you could do once it started was get on a tree but then you were stuck as you would very much die the moment you got down.
and it got CROWDED as everyone was able to reach the castle- when we respawned (in the airship, where we gotta fly down again) we would fly straight to it. it was hell
but in the end, we escaped. we didnt win but, we got tped to the ship so. you know! good time! three goddamn hours of play!!

Btw if anyones wondering why i dont make a sideblog for x hyperfixation/si...first off my blog my rules (and i mean the si id probably My Brand tm by now), but second off... its usually because i did but i got no attention paid to it or the content i made on it. Some fandoms only care about specific content im not interested in or dont produce, some fandoms dont follow back much, some fandoms dont rb basically anything thats not from a bnf...etc. etc. some fandoms are just that way ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Closeknit fandoms will follow you and rb your content; bigger or less communal fandoms where theres a lot of discourse or that are into only specific content (like a ship im not much into or art i dont have the style or skill to produce) dont
Like chances are i already write fanfiction no one reads and make art and memes no one rbs, im not gonna do that and ALSO try to run my 50th side blog that zero people follow or rb from where people pay even less attention to content i make
Yes this is bitter and a bit unfair at that but it feels like something people dont give any consideration. Fandom isnt just about content, its about interaction with other people too
#yes this a callout post for the goril.az fandom specifcally lmfao#ive never been stonewalled that hard in a fandom in all my life#meanwhile the lazytown fandom was really really cool#people were very friendly and welcomed me into the fandom immediately#they invited me to do stuff with them and even read and responded to my posts#star wa.rs fandoms been a real pain but thats mostly bc of all the recent discourse#and bc the ships i ship are frowned upon and frankly i mostly care about droid content#trek fandom is wonderful#powerful lmfao#its got a lot of that history tho and a lot of fans hang out on sites that arent tumblr#and the age range really varies#transformers fandom has been good from the begining#tho tbf ive been here for over a decade so i feel really comfortable in it#the discourse sucked but luckily it was only with one specific crowd of the mtmte series; theres plenty more series to choose from#and plenty more groups#mini fandoms surrounding ships or characters or media or versions of media everyone is mean to and hates are the nicest ones#theyre always happy to have more friends#stranger th.ings fandom - annoying#st billy stans; the 5 ppl who stan kali and her crew; monsterfuckers - cool and fun to be around#madcap rants#fandom

How did I find your blog? I was looking for soft Kuroo content on google. And your soft birthday hc’s for him came up. And that’s also how I found tumblr
What was the first story of yours that I read? That Kuroo piece ^
Roughly, how long have I been following this blog? Well I found that piece shortly after it was posted so…. Around the beginning of December 2019 I think. Got a tumblr a few months later and you were the first person I followed (had you in my bookmarks bar before that! (still have you in my bookmarks bar and when I share my screen in classes there are occasionally questions. I ignore them))
What’s something I’ve noticed about you personality wise? You’re really clever and funny. But you’re also sweet. But because you’re clever you have no hesitation in setting up and enforcing your boundaries, and I really admire that strength and confidence.
Have we ever interacted, either by PM, ask, or in the comments? What was my perception of you? YES!!! PM, SOOOOO many asks, comments, and you sent me an ask. And reblogged it. And I cried. A lot. My perception: you’re lovely and I want to h*ld your h*nd ….please.
What’s my favorite story of yours? Oh how to choose. Firstly, I’m a nb, biracial, bisexual. Honey, I’ve never made a choice in my life. But let’s try here. Anything you’ve written for Tsukki. Literally all of it is gold. Fight me. I was going to write “especially [piece title]” but I LITERALLY CANNOT CHOOSE ONE. Your Bokuto nightmare piece. Your Kuroo angsty fight. Your Tendou dealing with S/O with parents who yell piece. Your Kinktobers. Your Futakuchi and Mattsun pieces. And your Terushima pieces. Ugh. I CANNOT CHOOSE. OH AND YOUR STREAMER KENMA!!!!!! OKay just… all of it. I can’t choose. I tried, and I failed, and I’m willing to admit failure.
What’s a story I’d love to see you write? I don’t want to say this… because it hurts me… but I just KNOW you’d write brilliant angst. Some of my fav pieces of yours are pained beginnings with happy endings. That fight with Tsukki after a bad day at work. The pieces I mentioned above (nightmare pieces and fighting pieces and angsty home life ha.. ha.ha.ha.). That Oikawa one where the reader wakes up in bed without him and thinks he left. You write these gorgeous atmospheres and descriptive, visceral feelings, and if you chose to use it for evil…. You could get evil shit done. You’re SO powerful. So I want to read it… but also…. I don’t. I’d love to see you write ABO like you mentioned a while back or just see you explore a cutesy soulmate AU or something. I think you’d be really good at writing an AU where you hear what the other person’s listening too. I feel like you’d be so good at making me feel something for someone who was in another city. (think this would be cute with Tsukki cos he’s headphones boy, OR terushima because I like the dynamic of someone flirty, who clearly cares about looks, falling for someone he can’t see) ANYWAY….
Favorite pairing you write for?/fav reader insert? Tsukishima x reader. It’s my fav self-ship. (but also Mattsun, Bokuto, Oikawa, Tanaka, and Akaashi because you write them SO WELL!!!!)
Have any of your stories helped me through a hard time? Of course. Your self-harm piece came at a time I needed it. Iwaizumi’s in particular saved my life. But also your Tendou dealing with S/O parents who fight… came right when I needed it. Also starting college… was hard.. And reading and rereading your fluff really pulled me through it.
Have any of your stories hit closer to home? YES (see above).
Do I genuinely like your blog, it’s aesthetic or posts? It’s overall feel? It’s content? Yes. The aesthetic is, ngl, a wee bit basic. But I kinda love that. And the feel? It feels like home. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Your blog is my safe space. So, yes, I love. It’s content? YES. OF COURSE. Your personality probably could have kept me here even if your content was kinda shit, but I follow you RELIGIOUSLY because of your content. So yes. I adore.
Is English my first language? Kinda??? I grew up in a trilingual household so I kinda learned three languages at the same time while growing up. But no, I don’t need to translate it in my head. Because English was one of the three.
Anything I want to share? Yes. Please keep being kind to yourself, caring for your mental health, enforcing your boundaries, loving Akaashi, and just generally being you. You’re so lovely as you are, and I hope you continue grow, but never change. Also I’m sorry about all your work stuff…. It literally makes me feel sick. And I hope you find a job where that’s not tolerated, or that your work finds a better way of protecting it’s employees. I know you know this, but none of it is your fault. I just hope things improve. AND I love you… a lot. And I’m so proud of you hitting 9K and you deserve so many more followers because your pieces are just... GORGEOUS. I can’t wait until I’m at Barnes and Noble in a few years and I can pick up a hardback copy of your debut novel. I’m so excited to say “I knew Em Akaashi (which is your legal name as far as I’m concerned) before she was so popular among the masses.”
so ive been trying to figure out the correct and worthy way to reply to this ask since the moment i got it......because its so fucking sweet and kind and amazing and pure and perfect and i just dont know how to use WORDS to explain the way it makes me feel so.......i will just reply in bullet points in regards to every question u answered to make it a lil easier :D
- the fact that u found my blog on google ....... like this may be odd and a very specific thing but before i made this blog i always hoped that 1 day my fanfic would pop up in google searches bc thats ALWAYS how i found fics when i was reading them religiously and i felt so much ENVY!!!!! LIKE I WANTED TO BE THERE I WANTED MY FICS TO B POPULAR ENOUGH TO POP UP ON GOOGLE.....that may sound very selfish but its true......so thats just very cool to me... :]
- u’ve been here for so long omg 🥺🥺🥺🥺 if anyone in ur classes ever asks jus promo my blog like its nbd
- thats so sweet what 🥺🥺🥺 i try my best to advocate for myself and be confident for myself.....ive spent far too much of my time being silently uncomfortable because i was afraid of pushing someone’s buttons seeming rude.....but NO MORE!!!! i know what upsets me, i know my triggers, i know what i dislike experiencing, and im never gonna let myself be anxious or uncomfortable for someone else’s sake, esp if theyre being rude 2 me. i would say its less strength and confidence and moreso me attempting to take control of my anxiety in the places i can (aka on the Internet) bc i am SICK OF ANXIETY ATTACKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- BBY no dont CRY!!!! im racking my brain trying to think of who u are i wanna know so bad so i can thank u personally for being the kindest person in the world n so i can send u more asks >:(........MY HAND IS URS TO HOLD!!!!! dont tell akaashi tho
- OMG my TSUKKI pieces.....hes so hard to write why ;-; thank u so much im so glad u enjoy my works<3333
- NOT ANGST NOT LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!! pained beginnings to happy endings are my specialty.....IMAGINE me writing a sad ending like i CANT!!!!!!!!! ive only done it a few times and it is so Difficult.....YALL ARE SO LUCKY IM NOT EVIL!!!!!! ive had this idea for an angsty akaashi fic that i think about and write in my head every night before falling asleep and it Hurts and i wanna write it but i also can’t make myself :D ABO would be very fun but i genuinely do not know how to explore the concept while making it feel like it’s Written By Me.....u know what i mean? same with soulmate aus, i really dislike writing them because theyre just boring to me like they all feel the same everything’s been done for them.....which is FINE!!! but i write enough cliche stuff as it is HAHA, a long distance type soulmate au could be fun and interesting but ldr’s trigger me bc of a past relationship so </3 but hey maybe someone else could use the idea!!!!!
- gotta love tsukishima <3
- im rlly glad my writing could be there for you friend, one of the biggest reasons i write fanfic (and write the kind of fics i write) is bc i know firsthand how much reading sweet stories abt ur comfort characters can help u through the shittiest times - i just wanna offer ppl some support and happy feelings and love cuz sometimes fanfic is the only time we can find those things (and theres nothing shameful abt that either if anyone bullies u for reading fanfic i will fight them)
- I KNOW MY LAYOUT IS LAZY AND BASIC AS FUCK AND THAT IS BECAUSE I DO NOT GIVE A SHIT LMAOOOO so im glad u think its ok...... like i dont have the patience to create a fancy ass layout that actually works are u KIDDING ME??????? I COULD LITERALLY NEVER plus i kinda like that its just the basic kinda ugly boring default layout like it makes it simple and easy and i feel like it brings focus to the only thing on this blog that i care about which is my writing, i rlly only care about the content here and not aesthetics jdbljdabsdk that blue background will be there til i Die......i adore u more btw
- WHOA trilingual what the hell ur so cool tell me more
- you have my word, friend, that i will continue to do all of that so long as you do the same. take care of yourself, be kind to yourself - i know u can do it, ur so kind to others and u deserve to be kind to urself, too so this is the part that genuinely brought me to tears because *sappy dumb shit ahead* ok look ever since i can remember the one and only thing ive wanted to do with my life is become an author ...... dreams of book covers with my name written on them and words in pages written by me and fanart of my characters and going into my local bookstore n seeing my book there....these thoughts all haunt my fucking brain because i want it SO BAD!!!!!!!! so bad that it makes me CRY!!!!!!!! ive never wanted something more and just!!!!!!!!!!!! idk how much u meant that part but holy fuck!!!!!! i hope so bad that one day i can send u a free copy of my book as a thank u for being the person u are. u have all my love friend, every last bit of it <333333333

princess-nazario:
It's ok, thanks for clearing things up. See, everytime theres a post that might just be different the tumblr-fad! Version you speak or questions how tumblr might be romanticizing them theres always annoying people in the replies saying that theres a version where she wanders down the underworld herself, or that the version where shes kidnapped is...weak or a damsel in distress since it doesnt fit into tumblrs made idea of empowerment?? Its so annoying honestly. I saw this kind of stuff in a lot of posts while exploring the greek myth tag and its just... infuriating. I definitely should ignore them but it seriously makes me kind of sad and angry at the same time? The hades and persephone posts are everything(mostly tumblr-fad!) Version I reread your original post and yes I do agree, tumblr-fad! Persephone does take away a lot of the complexities and archetypes I read you examine. I think Hadestown might portray Hades and Persephone's power struggle well, it doesnt completely ignore the implications its giving off for the sake of some romance. This is what tumblr is doing and it's really annoying. By doing this and reducing the characters here to simple boxes it's taking away your interest in the myth, I think that's what you meant? I think your study of Hades/the underworld being Persephones self, cthonic meaning "spirit of nature within, inner self" while I dont fully understand that's really cool. I especially dislike how woobified and depowered he usually is in the tumblr-fad! Theres a lot you can work with him as the antagonist in a retelling I think. In fact maybe itd be great to have a retelling that explores the power struggle between Hades and Persephone and shows how Persephone gets through adversity and becomes of equal power through oppressive authority? Thatd be really cool. Tumblr-fad! Version is the twilight of myths but kind of the opposite. In twilight, the author itself romanticizes the creepiness and power struggle that might be there between Edward itself(although Bella does have a lot of agency so I think that's why it resonated so much with female readers?) while the Persephone has a various amount of versions, most versions being she was kidnapped/abduction with many meanings and metaphors and allegories to things, and tumblr-fad! Version ignores nuance in favor of their ships. Thanks for being so open and honest about this, I honestly was stressed because I thought my response maybe being immature or uninformed might be irritating or annoying. I haven't been sneaking through your blog or anything like that, I just saw your original post in the goddess demeter tag so I searched up "Persephone" on your stuff since I was curious with what else you might have to say about it. I wish Tumblr could maybe bother to learn something called not everything is entirely not THIS thing or the OTHER and maybe do something different from what Hades and Persephone coming to be known as the peak of all love stories on the website.
@princess-nazario I hope you don’t mind, I copy pasted your last reblog into a new post thread because the last one was getting massive.
I think I’m starting to understand what you’re getting at regarding the perception of victims as “weak,” and it makes a lot of sense. Thank you for clarifying regarding the “damsel in distress” trope because that’s when it clicked for me what you were talking about. I actually agree on that point, I think there is a tendency for pop feminism to kind of portray more vulnerable, sensitive or fragile women as less feminist, so I can see how you’re applying that to your views on how people on tumblr perceive the story of Hades and Persephone.
That said, I think you have a lot of different angles you’re looking at this whole thing from, and that’s great! However I think there’s so many subjects you are trying to tackle here that it seems like you are kind of are only half informed about, maybe from exploring discussions online. I think this is resulting in conclusions that are kind of confused and lacking in more solid foundations, if that makes sense. I think maybe you might benefit from exploring each element further on their own merits.
For example, did you know that there are a lot of different feminist viewpoints on Twilight itself? And not all feminists completely condemn it? In my opinion, there are a lot of things about Twilight to criticize, however there was a distinct element of hatred for the interests and desires of teenage girls involved with how people responded en masse to the Twilight phenomenon. I don’t think you were old enough to be directly familiar with all this at the time. I think a decent primer would be this video from Lindsay Ellis (tho please keep in mind that some of her most recent content is not for younger audiences). It doesn’t cover all angles of the topic, but it does give an alternative perspective in retrospect about the raging Twilight hate that swept through pop culture for a long time:
youtube
Also, there is a whole conversation to be had about the concept of “woobification,” and why that word exists, as well as how it is used in conversations about girls and women’s fantasies. The original post I made shows that I have my own frustrations when male villains and darker archetypes are whittled down to something seemingly non-threatening and “socially acceptable” myself (like...turning the beast into the prince in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast), but in my experience, people have often used the word “woobie” to describe any explorations of the vulnerability of these types of male characters when women do so because they find those men intriguing or attractive, and that can get kind of tricky because in many ways, those conversations can harbor a subtle resentment and shaming towards female fantasties, period.
I’m getting the impression that maybe there’s something about Hades and Persephone, or at least the archetypes they embody, that really intrigues you, but you’re not sure what you are supposed to think and feel about it from a feminist perspective. That’s ok, ultimately you’ll figure it out on your own. I can’t tell you what to think about the myths themselves on their own, separate from contemporary feminist media because that’s ultimately it’s own thing, and you can springboard your own perspectives and reimagining off of the original in any way that feels right to you.
What I can do though, is leave you with some age-apropriate content that I was consuming at your age, as well as a link to a site that explores stories with similar archetypes that Persephone embodies.
The site is called Girls Underground, and it explores and catalogues stories about girls who go on heroine’s journeys in the “Cthonic” context like I was talking about, as in exploring their own inner psyches through the experience of traversing a strange, scary, magical place. Sometimes these stories involve the trope of a spooky attractive male character who takes on an adversarial role that is sometimes also romantically charged, but not all of them do. I think the resources page may be of particular interest to you because it links to essays on subjects within this genre of storytelling. The Examples page has a ton of other stories not listed here that you can take a look at, however not all of them (but many of them!) are kid friendly.
Movies that I would recommend:
Labyrinth (1986), which was my favorite film since early childhood, and is the reason I love these types of stories to begin with.
Legend(1985), which doesn’t depict a healthy dynamic, but is a great film and does have a big place in the general conversation about this type of storytelling.
Howl’s Moving Castle, either the book or the film.
Pan’s Labyrinth is rated R for some gore and violence, and it has scary moments, but I think it’s fine for most teens. The character of Pan is not part of that whole “demon lover” trope because the heroine is a small child, but he takes on a similar role in terms of being a figure that embodies the underworld and thus a major part of the heroine’s psyche.
Honestly, I would consider Disney’s Beauty and the Beast (the original, not the live action remake) a good rendition. It was written by a woman.
Jean Cocteau’s black and white La Belle et La Bete.
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, or a film adaptation of the same.
Rebecca by Daphne DuMarier, which is what my username is from. I’m fond of the Hitchcock film adaptation.
Honestly, the 2004 adaptation of Phantom of the Opera is...flawed, but it was my introduction to Phantom, and it’s a lot of melodramatic fun.
It’s worth noting that in a lot of these stories, there are not perfect, healthy relationships depicted between men and women. There is cruelty, there is harm. But in many cases, that does not mean these stories have nothing to say about relationships between men and women, nor does it say that they are solely tales about abuse and we cannot find romanticism within them. Each story has it’s own flaws, it’s own strengths, hold deeper meanings beyond the surface. They contribute something distinct to a rich history of artistic explorations of the dynamics of power in romance and the female experience with our own desires within a patriarchal society.

🎤, ✍️, 💕, 💋
A many much :0 lets go!!
🎤 - What phrase/word do you use way too much?
From the
from the mouth of my beta
i had to cut down on throats bghjbggj tho i think now i just have the same problem with the word blood, jhgjhgj apparently i am a very body focused writer. I also think i use a lot of different phrases describing breathing or getting choked up...or being near tears...i need to cheer up these works!!
✍️ - Name one of your writing quirks
I feel like sometimes i write prose like i’d write poems which i think does give a uniquely flowery feel to my stories but...i always worry it will stray too much in the other direction and become annoying to read. I like to describe feelings the way they...feel? So emotions are always very descriptive as well. I like it when i can get a good rhythm in the story, it feels nice.
💕 - Your easiest/favourite character to write
That varies a lot depending on what fandom I’m currently into, rn I like writing Satoru and Suguru the most cuz there's THERES SO MUCH HERE, the goddamn drama never ends. It’s very fun, I like having two characters i can just dig through however i want and for once i feel like i like both parts of the ship more or less equally. Tho i also enjoyed writing Toge cuz....there’s nothing on him so nobody can tell me i got something wrong lmaooo same applies to Suwa and Takeuchi, there’s little content so headcanons have little to restrain them, it’s v fun to build backstory with like two starter blocks
💋 - How do you build up a relationship? (romantic, platonic, or otherwise)
fuck
HOW DO I?
Stares at my works in blind panic
I think they just exist?? I think a lot of my works are more established rather than getting together. Most of the ones I could count under getting together are one shots and most of them i dont have any strong feelings for jhvbhjvh thats mean but i dont love all my kids the same 😔
I feel like what’s important to me is like just normal stuff. I want characters to have funny conversations with each other, i want them to bounce off of each other well. The suffocating quality of your dying breaths was the first time i felt like i got a good handle on dialog and it’s very much because of Chuuya’s and Dazai’s banter. I want the characters to trust each other and show it, i want them to be comfortable with each other. Side hugs, fist bumps, shoulder bumps, slinging over each others shoulders, lots of tactile, silent intimacy, be it platonic or romantic. And when the other is taken away, i want them to miss them like they lost their own damn lung. I want to create a sort of dynamic that’s comforting and familiar, where one character is a home to the other, a place where they feel safe and loved and accepted. Idk do i actually manage to do that tho hjhvh I feel like ‘building up a relationship’ implies several chapters of slow burn but that has never been my thing hjbhjbjj I’m not much for excessive pining, i prefer established relationships a whole lot and sometimes one kind of relationships just melds into another in a way words cant describe but i hope it can be felt. Sometimes you just melt to being the others heart you know? I’m not very helpful with advice hjgbjhg i need to think more critically of how i do things it seems XD
Send me a writing style ask
#anon#ask game#you know hw sometimes in anime theres a character trying to explain something n they go#'you know you like go woosh and boom and tadada'#thats me trying to explain anything about my writing#i understand now
