#it's probably going to be a star-themed url

[coffee-and-cryptids]

alright it's official, i'm going to have to revamp my tag system so uh. i'm gonna be doing that today

[sollucets]

tag game for @khaopybara !! thank you for thinking of me i needed the boost 💜

1. why did you choose your url?

my url is from ‘sol lucet omnibus’, a latin phrase that means the sun shines for everyone. a lot of my urls & usernames and whatnot are sun themed, so this is just another in a long line. for a while it was ‘solclaw’ while i was in a werewolf phase. but i dont plan to change it again

2. any sideblogs? name them and why you have them

ahhh…. the secret come out. i guess? i have two sideblogs. @jinjjayo is my kpop sideblog, which i have not advertised having so far but does exist. i also have @solref, which is just where i collect tutorials & other reference stuff.

3. how long have you been on tumblr?

not consecutively, i took breaks, but my first blog was made in 2011. :0 i’ve had three main blogs over the years.

4. do you have a queue tag?

i do! i don’t use it often but i tag things that are queued with ‘ghost post (queued)’

5. why did you start your blog in the first place?

the original one, i made because my cousin recommended it to me. we shall not speak of its url. this current one was made when i started seriously writing again (thank u rasmr <3)

6. why did you choose your icon?

i love ayluna. my babygirls. that’s all there is to it lol. im also quite fond of the lil stars i edited in

7. why did you choose your header?

i did a lot of work to edit the scene’s colors for my lfls episode series, so i wanted to keep that and use it for one more gif haha. also i love them terribly

8. what’s your post with the most notes?

it is currently this set of the 3wbf trio doing their puzzle piece hugs, at just over 1000 notes. 🥺 im happy they deserve it

9. how many mutuals do you have?

73! i know this because (and i am aware this is embarrassing) i keep a notes document of my mutuals with names & tracktags, so i counted manually. that is,,, thats a lot of you. i love you all very much 🥹🥹🥹

10. how many followers do you have?

i have just over 900 followers. ._. wild

11. how many people do you follow?

i follow 155 blogs. i try to keep the number down but there are simply so many beloveds.

12. have you ever made a shitpost?

sure lol. ive done textpost edits, and that disney only friends thing, and etc.

13. how often do you use tumblr each day?

i check at least once a day. usually more though

14. have you had a fight/argument with another blog?

noooo. i never have. i always just blocked people or we drifted apart. i love to block though

15. how do you feel about ‘you need to reblog this’ posts?

i think it’s counterintuitive. people don’t like being ordered around, so a lot of folks will instinctively scroll. then the ones you do get are often because of anxiety, so it feels cruel. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ just ask normally / say please reblog this

16. do you like tag games?

why ask this at #16 of a tag game lmao. yes of course. doesnt everyone love to overshare

17. do you like ask games?

yes very much. it always makes it feel more lively. i try to play when i have the time :>

18. which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?

ouuhh, mona @thitiponqs probably, hehe. all member of usergif and gay dot tumblr dot com and everything else. everyone should know mona u.u everyone is famous in my heart though.

19. do you have a crush on a mutual?

no! >< it isn’t personal. i don’t have crushes very often. certainly you are all very lovely and cool, and i’ve had mutuals follow me who i had to go scream into a pillow about after for sure, but. it is all quite platonic im afraid 2 say. would still be happy to make out though

20. tags?

i will try! i choose u @markpakin & @lamonnaie ✨

[ruanbaijie]

[greghatecrimes]

for the ask game: 1, 3, 31, and 49 (49 specifically about Thirteen)!

Eee thank you for asking! <3 I know you said only 49 was specifically for Thirteen, but if you don't mind I'm going to answer all of them for Thirteen since she is the blorbo ever for me xD This got long, so answers are after the read more!

Canon I outright reject. Oooh, this one was hard because I actually love most of the canon details the writers gave us about her. The only thing I personally reject is her having a sister. They never verbally mentioned her sister (unlike her brother), so I just go about that as if her brother is her only sibling and a sister never existed. Either that, or her brother IS her "sister" and just transitioned sometime during their childhood.

3. Obscure headcanon - I got lots of asks about #3 for Thirteen! Instead of repeating the same thing, I'll link my answer for it here.

31. If they had a tumblr, what would it look like? I love thinking about this as;ldfjalsf. If Thirteen had a tumblr, I think it would totally be super nerdy and completely dedicated to fandoms she's in (like Buffy if this is Thirteen as a teenager, or something like Star Trek, Final Fantasy (I can see her liking XIII but I haven't played through the whole thing myself yet, so we'll see if that holds).[EDIT to add: oh my fucking god, I pronounce the final fantasy numerals as vee-eye-eye, ex-eye-eye-eye, etc. so I didn't realize until hours later that I said Thirteen. Would probably like Final Fantasy *13*. That was unintentional I swear 😂😭] She'd have it set up beautifully with a custom theme, a banner and icon she made herself, and an intricate tagging system that makes finding anything on her blog an absolute breeze. Her url would have absolutely no connection to anything that someone IRL could identify her with and she'd go by a pseudonym (I can also see her just going by "R"-- her first initial). It would be her escape from any and all stress in her "real life" and a place where she could relax and nerd out without worrying about keeping up an image, or about what other people would think. Even Foreman wouldn't know about it while they're dating. It would be an absolute and total secret from everyone in her life, and that's how she'd like it. I think the only person she would've considered making an exception for would have been Kutner, if he had lived long enough for them to get closer.

49. Favorite toy as a child. I originally thought of this when planning out stuff for my fic, In the Dirt, but it works for canon, too. A very well loved stuffed bunny that was given to her by her older brother when she was little. At the start of ITD, she keeps it tucked away in a duffel bag that holds the last remnants of her childhood and teenage years. But I like to think that at some point after moving in with House, she gets comfortable enough to let the bunny sit on her bedside table. For her, it's a positive reminder of her brother and how close they were when they were younger (in no small part due to their dad being so pre-occupied with their mom's Huntington's). It definitely has a name, but I'm not sure what it is. I've always pictured it looking sort of like this:

[bullgirldick]

i think i know who your “idealist” may be. at least, i suspect i do — not trying to be intrusive, hope it’s okay, not doing this for any kind of guessing game… i simply think that i have a similar thing going on with a pop-culture figure, and, having scrolled through your tag for him, the themes — spacetime exploration, choosing kindness in the face of loss and grief, futuristic aesthetics, stars and swirling galaxies, the inherent goodness of humanity even millions of years into the future — have almost confirmed it for me. i could be wrong. if you’re british like me, i’m probably right. could be a mile off, could be projecting, because if i ever involved pop culture stuff into my practice, that would definitely be the direction i take. there aren’t that many characters around who fit the mold of a a benevolent wandering god of hope

I wish it was the Doctor (who I assume you're alluding to). It would almost make it easier to talk about :')

...To hell with it. This is my blog. Why keep anything secret? For the sake of respectability?? I think I left respectability at the door long ago, when I chose the url bullgirldick.

The Idealist is Ben Tennyson. He's sort of a generic shonen protagonist, but I think that's the appeal. If my life had turned out slightly different, his place could've been taken by any number of characters. He's hopeful. He's scared. He jumps head-first into fighting the good fight. He picks himself up when he loses. He does good recklessly. His story has been as important to me as the stories of Hercules and Beowulf were to people of the past. I want to be as hopeful, brave, stubborn, and recklessly good as he is.

tagged by @ragnarokhound <3

name: kai (yes im a trans man named kai, its a good name, okay?)

pronouns: he/they

where do you call home: eh the general answer is west of england, midlands and up. theres a sentimental answer but its a pretty small area so im not gonna potentially dox myself in a tag game dhdjsjs

favourite animal: walrus all the way, baby! although my url is actually unrelated to my love of walruses. theyre just the best animals, theyre big old chunky boys with two big front teeth that can grow to over 3ft in length. when on land, they huddle together in cuddle piles. AND mama walruses can use their flippers to pick up their babies and cuddle them to their chest; tell me thats not the cutest thing youve heard today.

cereal of choice: im not really a cereal person or like a breakfast person at all, but if im having it, golden nuggets or nothin'

visual, auditory or kinesthetic learner: ...all of them? idk, it depends on what im learning. auditory probably less so than the others just because my auditory processing isnt just trash, its trash the binmen wont take.

first pet: my parents had four cats before they had me and my brother so i guess them? they were thomas, alfred, cally and misty. my uncle, who incidentally doesnt believe in seatbelts, named alfred.

favourite scent:

no but seriously i have a very strong scent of smell which is part of why im such a picky eater like im yet to meet a food that smelt bad and tasted good, but i just,,,, dont have a favourite scent?

my brother gave me a lynx body spray of his he didnt want pretty soon after i came out the third time, as trans this time, and its definitely a he got the spirit moment so i guess that.

do you believe in astrology: nah, its not my thing really. all the more to you if its yours as long as you dont try to ascribe my behaviour to me being a taurus, thats the mental illness or the autism or the adhd or the neurological disorder thats pushing my eyes out of my skull very slowly.

how many playlists on spotify/apple music: 28 which is more than i thought i had. right now, theres only like 3 im cycling through named dead reckoning, the old swan, and dutch angle / danish pastry.

sharpies or highlighters: yeah so like, we could never afford sharpies in my house so its highlighters my default. sharpies are like mega expensive in the uk and by mega expensive, i mean unaffordable for a child of a working class single parent.

songs that make you cry: hmm. thats kinda difficult because whether i cry depends almost entirely on my mood. if i had to name some, i guess id go with:

a little fall of rain, turning and empty chairs at empty tables from the london cast recording of les mis (its vital to specify this, okay?); george blagdens secret? recording of drink with me; breathe from in the heights; flowers, doubt comes in, promises, gone im gone, and we raise our cups from hadestown (are you sensing a theme yet?); unruly heart from the prom; here i go again specifically from the rock of ages musical (and NOT the tom cruise movie, i saw this musical live and i cried); i know where ive been by queen latifah, and also from pretty much any hairspray cast recording; if i met myself again, ugly in this ugly world and hes my boy from everybodys talking about jaime and i have sobbed at all three of these songs.

and finally: grandmas song, deep into the ground, he could be a star and once we were kids from billy elliot, and yes i cry at most of act 2, i was raised working class in a working class area that was once revered for its industry and has since been forgotten and left to drown in poverty, how am i meant to not cry at it?

songs that make you happy: hmm again. throw the entirety of the first mamma mia soundtrack onto the list. then welcome to paradise & coming clean by green day (when i was a very depressed teenager, listening to green day always made me feel better, both about the world and about myself); the irony of choking of a lifesaver by all time low because its moms favourite song of theirs and weve gone to see them live five times together; merry christmas maggie thatcher from billy elliot because fuck that bitch; legend of coco chanel from everybodys talking about jaime; sexy from the mean girls musical; do it for your lover by manel navarro; strangers & i dont want to talk about me by stereo jane (the strangers music video is so fucking bisexual yall); king of my heart by sub-radio; ghost ship of cannibal rats by billy talent; carpe diem by joker out; who the hell is edgar by teya and salena; let me entertain you by robbie williams because i sang it in karaoke as a 7 year old who did not know the words and then proceeded to get obsessed with robbie fucking williams for a while; slipping away by materia; and 68 guns by the alarm which is a funny little one because it reminds me of my dad but i still enjoy the song and ive made a conscious choice not to limit my music taste just because some asshole whos not even a good hobby ghost hunter likes it too, you know?

do you write/draw/create: all three! granted i havent done much of the first two in a while, but on my defense, losing 7-8 months worth of your memories kind of fucks you up and its oddly time consuming. also developing fainting attacks and spending a week in hospital while they fail to figure out whats wrong with you other than weirdly low blood pressure does not help. but i do have a drawing planned out to do and while i went a little too much detail on one small detail (i will justify it as soon as i actually finish it), im going to finish it. i also do origami pretty often as well as baking, and i am currently building a wooden replica of the titanic AND LISTEN, i started before the titan submersible stuff happened and i havent touched it yet because it just feels weird to, you know? also, i didnt even want to do the titanic, but like, good luck finding any starter kits that arent a) titanic and b) upwards of a £100. i would love to do a ss malolo or a mts stockholm but that aint happening and while i might be able to find an ss normandy or ss united states, im not gonna be able to afford. its titanic or bust which sucks.

Love your avatar of the snail from the Kirby anime nobody ever talks about. 2. “Back in Action” could’ve been so much more if the focus was JUST on Daffy and Bugs (but I guess the spy plot comes from the original draft of the “Space Jam” sequel)

One: THank you!! I love him v much as I'm sure is evident by my blog theming and url

And two!! YES!! (even with that thought though I still refer to it as "the baffy movie" sometimes ajdhsajhd)

I've seen earlier drafts of the Back in Action script (warning for a lot of bad 2000s thoughts about women IRT Jenna Elfman's character) and while I'm much happier with what ended up finally coming out, I absolutely agree it could have been much better had there been less of a focus on the human characters, though at the same time it would be a completely different movie (which is hinted at a lot in a few of the Bugs and Daffy scenes)

I know at the time that specific division of WB was really struggling (because back in action was LITERALLY their last hope which. yikes) but I really really wish they had split it into two movies, I think that would have worked much better and given the writing and production team to really explore Daffy. Because like, Bugs Bunny is a Mary Sue. That's how he works, that's how he's worked for a really long time, but the really frustrating thing w him in relation to how Daffy sees him is that Bugs kinda doesn't give a shit. He doesn't really care that he's The Face of Warner Brothers and that pisses Daffy off so bad. It eats at Daffy's very being because if he were the star he would be eating it up every day (which is partially why he's not. Bugs is laid back just enough that the kind of stardom he has doesn't go completely to his head <- of course some of it still does but nobodys perfect lol). And that right there is such a strong conflict for a movie on it's own (as well as part of the driving conflict of Duck Amuck which is like. THE Cartoon featuring the more emotionally impacted and insecure Chuck Jones' characterisation of him, which is the one they went with for Back in Action)

I would love a straight-up Hollywood story with them (which is probably evident by the fact that those Feud and Valley of the Dolls quotes popped into my head when I was making The Post), and Warner Brothers of all studios has the background to really do something like that well. Which again there are pockets of that throughout BIA but really not explored in a meaningful way because they had to share screentime with the spy plot and all the other crap which was partially cut out/partially left in.

Anyway. You unleashed the floodgate of BIA thoughts I hope you liked it and thank you for the ask!

[asrielmerrymoon]

the japanese language has constantly been used as an "aesthetic" by white westerners, from racist "Oriental" fonts, to people just spouting shit from anime, to people just throwing in a japanese word in place of an english one. I understand that you probably didn't know, but it's still something a lot of us get told we're "overreacting" about when we point out how patronizing it is. Japanese-american people are constantly infantilized and objectified even subconsciously and I know that isn't your intention, but the action is still there. It's exhausting to only see people use our words when it's "cute" or fits whatever "aesthetic" they're trying to go for in the same way it's exhausting to only be seen as an exotic foreign person. I know a lot of people native to japan have no problem sharing their culture, but that isn't what this is. It's gentrification, just watering down something till it fits into white western standards. I really don't think you're a bad person for just wanting a URL you liked, I just think you should find an alternative one.

does this work? (If it doesn’t I can find something else)

I took my name from star pieces from animal crossing (which are konpeito) because space themed things calm me.

Thank you for explaining, I’ll do better in the future. I’m sorr.

uHHH. A few updates since this blog has been just queued posts for a minute. I suppose I should mention that I haven't purchased Dawntrail still and I'm still unsure when/if that will be because from what I've seen and gathered from friends that have played, it hasn't really drawn me in enough to play, so I apologize to the folks that follow me for purely FFXIV reasons.

THAT SAID, I do play WoW and have been enjoying War Within so far quite a bit. I've been enjoying the augvoker that I made for running content, so I may open up a new tag for them soon? I'm on WRA Horde if anyone is curious and I'm (shamelessly) playing an Obsidian Brood OC who is currently in need of an RP-PVX guild that wouldn't mind an exploration/archaeology-minded drake in their ranks.

This blog, while being pretty heavily FFXIV themed visually will remain that way because this url is my baby and isn't going anywhere anytime soon, but continue to expect more multi-fandom content as promised in my pinned post.

Aside from MMOs, I'm still pretty addicted to Honkai Star Rail as some of you can probably tell from queued content, so that will be something else to expect a lot of.

Art has been pretty frustrating lately, but I've been thinking about grinding out some practice to temper that frustration. The initial purpose for this blog was for art, but it sort of fell to the wayside. New WoW OCs have made me a bit more inspired lately, though! We'll see.

Apologies for rambling and thank you for reading this far! Have a great evening!

Mike Is Not The TV

Spamton seems to say here that the TV gameshow host character he alluded to throughout chapter 2 - which many people, including myself, pretty reasonably assumed to be Mike up until now - was the one responsible for his life going downhill, and thinks that he was the one who deserved to wind up homeless instead of himself. Spamton then says that everyone who didn't buy his products will pay... except for Mike. This implies that the TV and Mike are separate people, whom Spamton has two different opinions of.

This page's URL supports this idea, reading "damn you tenna". I believe this is most likely the actual name of the TV gameshow host character. It could be short for Antenna, which would fit the TV theming. People have assumed that Tenna is actually Mike's last name - which definitely could make sense in this context, if you interpret this as Spamton doing that thing where you invoke someone's last name for dramatic effect/to emphasize a point - however considering the rest of the current evidence, this seems unlikely to me. Spamton seemed to be comfortably on a first-name basis with him previous to this.

This answer from his Twitter Q&A makes a lot of sense when viewed from this angle as well. Spamton gets very angry and defensive, and refuses to give any information about Mike to someone he assumes to be "ONE OF THAT [Cathode]'S CREW" - that is to say, someone working for the TV. This response wouldn't make as much sense if Mike and Tenna were the same person. ...but, if Mike isn't the TV, then who is he? Looking back at previous mentions of Mike within this context, we can infer a few things.

The very first time Spamton ever mentioned Mike, it was amongst his other former friends - Notably, Mike is mentioned separately from both the "Easels" and "CRTs" - who are most likely Swatch and Tenna respectively - and is the only one called directly by name, which is another point that makes me think they were particularly close. Also, it's Tenna who he's calling a liar and a criminal here, so Spamton's strong emotional reaction to remembering his and Mike's relationship is probably not out of anger at him.

When the NEO body is about to explode and Spamton is desperately trying to... do whatever it was he was trying to do, he asks if Mike is "GETTING ALL THIS", which is the kind of thing you ask someone who's recording. Mike might not be the TV itself, but this does imply that Mike is related to recording devices. So, why were Mike and Spamton such close friends, why isn't he around anymore, and why is Tenna a lying criminal? I wanna hear everyone else's ideas, but here's my best guess: Mike was a radio host, probably a microphone. He and Tenna didn't get along. Tenna valued his TV studio's profits the most, but Mike? Mike cared about the freedom. Mike loved radio, because anybody's free to broadcast whatever they want to if they know how! So when Spamton finally made it big and got invited onto Mike's show, they really hit it off, and became fast friends. Maybe Mike kept doing things for Spamton for free, kept having him on? Spamton's appearances made Mike's show become so popular that people stopped watching Tenna's, until eventually, his studio was about to go under. Obviously, Tenna wasn't about to just let the Lightners stop paying attention to him. So Tenna decides to give his shadowmen the order, and... Video killed the radio star.

Spamton's free advertising was gone, his home was gone, the only one who really understood him was gone. So that's why Spamton decided he'd make Tenna pay. Make everyone pay. Everyone... Everyone except... Mike. Because Mike can't pay. Mike already paid.

I’ve debated this for almost 2 years now, but should I change my url?

I haven’t changed my url at all in the nearly 10 years I’ve been on tumblr, but I don’t really post Harry Potter anymore, and if I do reblog something it’s likely to marvel at Cuarón’s gorgeous direction of Azkaban or it’s about AVPM.

And I know that on tumblr Harry Potter has become like a dogwhistle for being a TERF, which sucks. But what’s strange is that outside of tumblr, people either don’t know about JKR’s bigotry or they don’t care enough to do anything about it. This past Halloween I worked an event where there were a ton of kids dressed in Hogwarts uniforms. I literally was just talking recently to someone who’s bi and is super excited to see the new Fantastic Beasts movie. Either the rest of the world is “separating the art from the artist” to still talk about Harry Potter (like the case for that person), or actively agrees with JKR, OR just has no clue at all that she’s a TERF because the outrage is pretty contained to social media. Right now, it’s really just on tumblr and twitter that it’s a dogwhistle, but of course that means that the people who are purposefully using it as a dogwhistle are truly among the most horrible of TERFS. This isn’t me saying it’s futile to stop reading and watching HP and giving her money, I’m just saying that at the moment my url is only issue on tumblr. But of course it’s a url for tumblr, so that makes it an issue for me to possibly be associated with TERFS. Basically, I’ve been conflicted.

I don’t want people to assume I’m in that group. And I already got a hate message a few months ago from someone who assumed I was because of my url (and I guess my theme and profile picture too). I’m sure the people who follow me know I’m not like that, but at the same time I sometimes feel hypocritical reblogging posts complaining about whatever new bigotry JKR is going on about while my url still has Hufflepuff in it.

I think if I was to change it, it’d most likely be to “youremyonlyhope” or “anew-hope.” That way, it still has Hope in it so people can tell it’s me and it’s a Star Wars reference. I already saved both urls just in case. If anyone has any other url suggestions, I’m open to it.

So, should I change my url to something else, or should I just leave it as hopehufflepuff? I want actual opinions from my mutuals and followers to see what you think.

My 10th anniversary on Tumblr is July 4th, so that’s probably when I’d finally change my URL.

theo’s tarot collection

hi hello i suffer from a terrible ailment called I Keep Acquiring New Tarot Decks Even Though I Am A Tarot Newbie.... so i figured i could do a little writeup about my decks if anyone is interested in that :’) basically i started doing tarot in 2019 because i couldn’t get a hold of a therapist (i was put on a year long waitlist WAHOO) so i basically. self-medicated with tarot readings hahaha. i had a friend who gave me a lot of really good advice and had done some readings for me before who felt immensely comforting. the way i read them is like... it allows you to confront your situation and your emotions through a new angle, but you gotta be brave enough to do it - or ask someone to do it for you. it can be a really intense but also cathartic experience. it’s not for everyone! but i like it. i still consider myself a novice and still learning so i am not in ANY way trying to paint myself as a Knowledgabl Tarot Witch - in a perfect timeline that’s who i wish i was, but i’m ultimately just some guy with a solid appreciation for art and personal growth.

ANYWAY... onto my DECKS (the tumblr post will probably squish the quality outta my photos so i’m gonna link the URLs for Full View)

Children of Litha by Alexandria Huntington

i consider this my main and first deck (i am NOT counting the official homestuck deck i bought as a teen just because i wanted to look at the art. no offense to the homestuck deck i’m just not gonna use fandom decks)! i picked it out but my Tarot Friend gifted it to me... i think it’s a very good starter deck for me personally, and it’s the deck i’ve bonded with and used the most. i even put a fancy sticker on the box as part of the bonding process. i always feel so bad for all of my other decks because i haven’t been able to dedicate as much time for them as i have this one... so it’s definitely the deck i go to for the most accurate readings for myself. Vibes and Thematic Coherence: the art in this is so beautiful and elegant. the symbolism more or less draws on the classic smith-waite deck, but redrawn for its theme. i like that it has a very consistent imagery! out of the major arcana, the fool is the only fully human character - every other character is part animal in some way or other. then the suit of swords depicts birds, winged insects and the air element, coins depict ungulates and equines and earth, wands has felines and canines and fiery imagery, and cups has fish and creatures of and in the sea. the court cards have humans. the suit symbols are always depicted consistently, as white silhouettes. there are also two extra cards: the all and the void. Pamphlet: the reason i think this was a good starter deck is because both because the art feels very intuitive about what it depicts (to me, at least), the descriptions in the pamphlet describe what is happening and why the artist chose this motif for this card. it has honestly helped me remember the meanings a lot, because i’ll be reading the other decks and be like “oh that’s the octopus card i know what the octopus card is about”. there are also little poems next to the main descriptions that work as a pretty solid tl;dr for the core meanings. i also like that the court cards are referred to in the sense of like... a knight is “a young person with masculine energy” rather than “a young man”. it feels more fluid and vibe-y about gender than traditional decks ya feel. on a range from Abstract to Directness this one feels like it sits pretty comfortable in the middle, maybe leaning on Abstractness. it has always given me gentle instructions and advice.

Cardfeel: the cards are very smooth and nice with gold edges. the cards are not NOT solid, but i wish they had been a little thicker because i’m always afraid i’m going to accidentally damage them - but that’s probably a feeling i have about most of my possessions tbh!! i think they’re a good size, too, at least for my small hands. they’re more on the long/slender side so they are good for me to shuffle. i also like the box, it’s a hard flip box with a magnet. i think u can’t go wrong with that. this is the deck i’ve travelled with the most (did u know hotel beds are the best tarot reading spaces. for some reason they just Work). The Spacious Tarot by Annie Ruygt and Carrie Mallon

this is one i really like a lot and want to use more! i absolutely adore the concept of it, but it’s a little harder for me to read than the Litha one. Vibes and Thematic Coherence: this one is like!!! it’s about the open space and the quietness. the vibes are IMMACULATE. the cards aren’t filled to the brim with happenstance and symbolism, but they each feel like a little refuge. very meditative. i also like that the court cards are not gendered at all - there is no page, knight, queen and king, but rather child, explorer, guardian and elder. i am really into that, especially as steps of mastery of their suit. i do think that this deck is probably easier to read if you’re more experienced with tarot meanings and symbolisms, because the illustrations aren’t necessarily that intuitive. Pamphlet: i haven’t read through this one very much, but i think it’s more on the abstract side of the Abstract to Direct scale. it might just feel like that because it describes what the card symbolizes without drawing much on what the card depicts - it is generally a pretty abstract and meditative deck. i like it for what it is! but it’s harder for me to read than my main Litha deck. Cardfeel: there’s something about the cardfeel i wish was different. they’re perfectly ok cards, they’re smooth and not too thin, but i still wish they had had more heft or something. while the cards fit very well into my hands i think maybe they could’ve been Larger to emphasize their motifs of openness and space. or texture. or gilded edges. i really don’t know what i want. the box however is very good and easy to open and use!! never underestimate a good box.

Tarot of the Divine by Yoshi Toshitani

this is a deck i Had To Get because i knew the artist was working on it and i was always Planning To... it is not a deck i use very often but i absolutey adore it. you can also get it with an accompanying fairytale book, i thought i had ordered that but i was Wronge. Vibes and Thematic Coherency: it depicts motifs and characters from stories, myths, and fairytales from a vast variety of cultures. it’s AMAZING. the art is so clean and crisp and i was VERY EXCITED to find a card drawing on a sami story (page of coins)! i don’t have a lot to say except that yoshi yoshitani has done some incredible work on this. Pamphlet: while i do not have the Fairytale Book edition, the pamphlet is really super nice because it shows pictures of the cards, lists what story it depicts and where the story is from, gives a short description for how this scene or character embodies the card. it then lists some of the Card Characteristics beneath. very simple but very nice. i really like pamphlets that explain Why the artist picked the motifs they did - for me personally it really helps me connect to the deck and their symbols. it’s probably more on the Direct side of the scale thanks to this. Cardfeel: these are textured!! they feel like the playing card deck my grandmother has, which feels apt to me. textures make the cards feel solid to me. they’re also a very nice size to hold. the edges are not guilded, but with the white frames it looks good and nice. the box is nice but also Large, possibly to fit with the book? might not be ideal for travel, but there’s nothing stopping you from getting a different box or pouch.

The Star Spinner Tarot by Trung Le Nguyen

my most recent deck... i KNEW about the artist and the deck from before, but wasn’t PLANNING to get it, but then i saw it in the comic book store and i wasn’t able to pass it by. no regrets, it’s a wonderful deck. Vibes and Thematic Coherence: absolutely lovely art and style. it’s another deck drawing on fairytale themed motifs. i’m loving the use of colors and circles. it also has four different cards for the Lovers so you can choose which one(s) speak to you the most, something i think is just wonderful. i think the only thing i found a little... odd? was that the suit of Wands looks kinda same-y, which isn’t a bad thing, but it was the only suit that looked that way to me. they’re still very very nice. ALSO THE BACK OF THE CARDS ARE SHINY. I JUST THINK THAT’S VERY LOVELY. as a Physical Product these are chef’s kiss. Pamphlet: on the Abstract to Directness scale, these are VERY DIRECT. the pamphlet doesn’t say a lot about why the cards depict what they do, but go straight into card meaning, and in a very unambiguous way. i think it can both work very well, leaving you little room to avoid your feelings, but it also has a higher margin to miss completely. for being such a cutesy deck full of fairies the pamphlet is definitely giving you a smack at the side of your head. i haven’t used this deck a lot yet due to its newness, but i definitely want to try it out more to see what it does to me.

Cardfeel: out of all of my decks i think this has the best cardfeel... the cards feel really solid, and have a very good size that feel just right for them. like i sort of fell in love with the deck when i actually started shuffling it and browsing the cards. buying cards - especially on the internet - can be a gamble because you Can’t Know The Cardfeel. with decks like the Spacious Tarot i got a little dissappointed, but this one was a very pleasant surprise. also the box is very good and look like a work of art. The Fyodor Pavlov Tarot

honestly one of my new favourite decks that i ABSOLUTELY am going to use more and become more familiar with. also a deck that i knew the artist was working on, and supported the kickstarter the moment it was announced. my deck also came with two Magician cards and i don’t know why. extra wizard for me??? Vibes and Thematic Coherence: the look and feel of this deck is Immaculate. it looks very classical and traditional (and absolutely gorgeous), it is grounded in the classical smith-waite imagery but Expands Upon It, draws on the diversity of human culture and experiences... also loving the energy of “THIS CARD IS TRANS NOW AND THERE’S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT” many cards have (most famously the Lovers, but i don’t want to post pics of any of the cards depicting nudity or risqué themes on tumblr). i absolutely adore the knight of coins card (THE HORSE IS HIS FRIEND AND SERVICE ANIMAL!!). it’s just Really Very Good. also the backside has pretty Shiny stars and i like it. Pamphlet: i really like this one. it is a deeply personal pamphlet, where fyodor pavlov directly discusses his relationship to the cards and why he chose the motifs he did. it feels really grounded in the world we live in, and also such a vulnerable thing to share with us all. it’s on the Direct side of the scale without necessarily telling you “the card is definitely this one thing”. my only wish is that it was easier to navigate at a glance. Cardfeel: THEY ARE TEXTURED!!! these cards are definitely long and slender and benefit someone with larger hands than mine, but i still like them a lot. i do wish they had been a smidge heavier just so i wouldn’t worry so much about damaging them... but i don’t want to be ungrateful. the deck and the box are wonderfully crafted. The Botanica Tarot by Kevin Jay Stanton

oh boy did i support the kickstarter for this one... i had actually bought the major arcana when it was the only version available, and then the artist decided to make a full deck. it’s an absolute work of art. Vibes and Thematic Coherence: oh boy oh boy does it serve vibes and thematic coherence. it’s Plants all the way down, OBVIOUSLY, but also like... every card in the minor arcana depicts their suit in its own way. like the range of coins/currency from various times and cultures?? AMAZING. looking at the art of this deck is a DELIGHT. every card manages to be beautiful and interesting despite there not being a single living creature depicted on any of them. i WILL say they, same as the spacious tarot, are not the most intuitive to read if you’re not super familiar with either the Plants or the meanings of the cards. Pamphlet: you can fit so much plant knowledge in this one. i got a version of the deck with a beautiful little book, but there’s also a small pamphlet that follows the deck itself (which i admittedly have not looked too closely at yet). there’s descriptions for why this specific plant has been chosen for each card, and then some Card Meaning Keywords. so definitely on the Abstract side of my imaginary tarot pamphlet scale, because you mostly have plant symbolism to go on. i haven’t done a lot of readings with this deck, i’ll be honest - but it’s a beautiful treasure that i adore. Cardfeel: they’re Smoothe and Guilded edges. they can feel a little wide for my hands, but not so much that i cannot shuffle. i think maybe a smidge of texture wouldve been good with this deck since it would fit the look of the painted art. i also did get like... a big kickstarter reward version of this deck. it came in a tin box with extra treasures and a cloth and pins... the actual card box itself is beautiful to look at, but i have to say that the one i got is VERY HARD TO OPEN. i might transfer the cards into a pouch if i want to be reading them more often. IKEA deck

yes this is a meme deck and i don’t really use it but I WANTED TO SHARE... i think the major arcana is very cool and funny, but i was dissappointed to find that the suit cards are just “ikea part but Multiple Times”. it also does not come with a pamphlet. also yes yes it’s funny that the names of the cards are spelled in a “silly ikea word language” BUT IKEA NAMES ARE JUST SWEDISH....... IT’S NOT A SECRET LANGUAGE IT’S JUST SWEDISH............ it’s a funny deck to have and it doesn’t take up much space so eh! shrugs!!! The Lubanko Tarot by Emily Lubanko

another kickstarter deck... it’s gorgeous but there is a chance i might gift it to someone else. not because i regret getting it or don’t like it, but because i already have so many decks that speak to me, while this one gives me vibes of serving someone else better. does that make any sense? i admittedly haven’t looked at the pamplet so much so i think i’m going to skip that description for this one. Vibes and Thematic Coherency: the MOVEMENT and the COLORS... it’s Capturing Feelings in a really good way. i mean. i got it for the vibes and it’s serving vibes. Cardfeel: Smoothe Cards. shiny silver edges, like a slippery fish in a rapid river. it feels good and right for this deck. also good box. i know most of these decks have Good Box, it’s just the botanica one that let me down by being difficult. The Oriens Tarot by AmbiSun

i don’t have this deck anymore, i gifted it to my boyfriend... i found these pics on my twitter. it’s one of the first decks i supported on kickstarter and it’s VERY pretty, and it has HOLOGRAPHIC RAINBOW EDGES HOT DAMN. it’s another one of those instances where i Yearned for it and then found that it didn’t fit me as well as i had hoped. tarot is just one of those things where you have to find what Works for you. at this time the children of litha was working so well for me and i really liked the depiction of animals in it, i wasn’t able to connect to another animal deck in the same way... and it was before my tarot collection snowballed into what i have now. C’EST LA VIE ... i don’t have a smith-waite deck. i’m a fake tarot fan. i am however familiarizing myself by following Jessica Dore on twitter and subscribing to her monthly newsletters. i really love how she talks about these cards and how she interprets them.

Okay, Campers, Rise and Shine! (Rated T) [Julie x Luke]

Summary: When Reggie launches a particularly ill-advised prank war at HGC Ranch, Luke's fully prepared to take it in stride.

When the days start looping, though, he begins to suspect that this might all be a little bit above his head.

In other words, he's at least 78% sure that the time loop isn't a direct result of Reggie's pranks.

Maybe 77%.

Oh, well.

At least he's not in it alone.

(The Groundhog Day meets Gravity Falls meets Summer Camp meets The Author's Own Distaste For Prank Wars AU that no one asked for. Ever. At all.)

Starting To Forget (Just What Summer Ever Meant To You) (Not Rated) [Flynn x Carrie]

Summary: Last summer didn't end on a positive note for Carrie Wilson - she and her girlfriend broke up on the last night of camp, and she's been miserable since. But it seems that the universe is intent on having her fix that this summer. Even if that means she has to live through the same day over and over and over again until she does.

Creative B.S. Was No More, Was No Less (Look Around, You're Gonna Miss What You Found) (Rated T) [Alex x Luke, Flynn x Reggie]

Summary: The midnight men move again

Don't know when

Best friends forever

In trouble again

Here's to you, here's to me

Over the rafters and we're free

--- Over the Rafters, Rick Schiffman

***

Alex and Luke go undercover on a mission to a summer camp in order to find a talisman that could endanger the camp and all the kids. While there, they bond with the kids and make peace with the fact that they broke up.

While Alex and Luke are away, Flynn accidentally fucks with time.

bitch but like romantically (Rated T) [Flynn x Carrie]

Summary: The dining hall’s exactly the same as it has been for two mornings now, and Flynn doesn’t hesitate to poke Willie twice on the nose and whisper “pancake” on her way past their seat.

His eyes widen and he whips his head around to follow them, excitement glimmering in their eyes.

“Really?” they blurt. Flynn rolls her eyes and nods.

~

or: flynn gets stuck in a time loop. {for troped jatp round 2}

down by the bay (Rated T) [Alex x Willie]

Summary: Over time, Camp Phantom has simply become known as a selective summer camp: one that took only the kids that Caleb saw promise in. And Caleb wasn’t exactly lying. He really did take only the ones he saw promise in, he simply looked for different traits than others might.

For example, say, hypothetically, a boy who could see the future. Or, hypothetically, a girl who could interact with ghosts. Or, hypothetically, a boy who could summon objects to him with a simple thought. Or, and this is completely hypothetical mind you, a boy who could manipulate time.

Those might be some traits that Caleb saw promise in. Just, like, as examples.

Time will tell (But only if you do it right) (Rated T) [Flynn x Carrie]

Summary: Carrie had been acting a little off for a week or so, but Flynn was pretty much known for seeing something in nothing, and that was probably what they were doing then. If something was going on, Carrie would tell her eventually.

OR

Who knew all it took was a little bit of miscommunication to mess up time itself?

and so it begins (Rated T) [Bobby x Reggie]

Summary: It’s the first day of their second week at Camp Carolling (they’re spending an entire month, and they’re getting paid to be there!) when Reggie gets a little lost in the woods. During this misadventure into the woods, he finds an egg shaped rock, an inhabited cabin that may or may not be riddled with signs, and something that might be magic. He probably doesn't get paid enough to discover magic.

or, when they were thirteen years old, four boys met at camp carolling and eventually became a band that almost became something legendary. now, all four boys are coming back as counselors, three boys in one band and one boy in his own solo act.

so begins the reunion, though it doesn't go how any of them imagine.

Porcupine Day (Rated T) [Bobby x Ray x Rose]

Summary: It’s been fifteen years since Trevor broke up with Ray and Rose and they’re... not fine, but managing. But when Trevor to adds insult to injury and buys the camp across the lake from the one they once owned together, the two camps become locked in a bitter rivalry. With neither side willing to set aside their pride and work out their issues, the universe decides to settle their fates itself.

Day After Day (After Day After Day) (Rated T) [Alex x Willie]

Summary: When Alex met Willie just after their senior year of high school, they spent a wonderful three months dating before their relationship ended in a blaze of glory. Now, four years later, they meet again as counselors at a summer camp. The only problem? Alex keeps reliving their first day together. The day that Luke had declared "Prank Day."

This is not how Alex pictured his summer going.

clocks move faster (it's all we're after) (Rated G) [Julie x Luke]

Summary: Julie likes it when her friends are happy, so when she realizes she's stuck in a time loop, she uses her knowledge to make sure everything works out for everyone... except she conveniently forgets to factor herself (and Luke) into the mix.

Touch of Magic (Not Rated) [Alex x Luke]

Summary: When everything stands in Luke and Alex’s way of getting to be with the people they love, they have to repeat the day over and over until they can get the happily ever after that they want.

The play's the thing (that goes wrong) (Rated T) [Alex x Willie]

Summary: Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow creeps in this petty pace from day to day for Macbeth, but not so for Alex and the production of Hamlet that he is directing and starring in. And while he's stuck repeating the day of the performance over and over, mishaps of all kinds befall the cast.

anything, anything (for another run with you) (Rated T) [Alex x Willie]

Summary: The moment Alex steps foot in Camp Greenwood, he knows that this summer is a bad idea.

He knows it as soon as he sees tan skin, long hair, and a tie-dyed crop top at the check-in table.

Willie.

-

the camp counselor/exes/prank war/time loop fic of your dreams (unless you read all of the other troped round 2 fics lmao)

there’s a glorious sunrise, dappled with the flickers of light (Rated T) [Julie x Luke]

Summary: What comes next happens in slow motion. Luke’s foot catches on the last rung of the ladder. Julie watches as he stumbles a step forward, barely catching himself before falling on his face. The ladder clatters to the floor below. The trapdoor, no longer propped open by it, falls closed with a loud thunk, the lock clicking into place. They’re stuck.

“Luke!” she exclaims loudly. “Look what you did!” Julie drops to her knees in front of the trap door, desperately trying to fit her fingers between the wood and the stone to pry it open again. Of course it doesn’t work.

“What?” he snaps back. “I wouldn’t be up here in the first place if it weren’t for you trying to fuck us over.”

or: ex-best friends Luke and Julie, working as camp counselors at rivaling camps, find themselves stuck in a time loop

the daughter of apollo (Rated T) [Julie x Luke]

Summary: (the JATP x Camp Half Blood AU that nobody asked for)

maybe the world isn't ending (maybe it's been postponed) (Rated G) [Julie x Luke]

Summary: Alex runs his fingers through Willie’s hair. “I think it’s best to just leave them to their own prank war at this point. Let’s not forget that time Julie put hot sauce in the coffee pot and my mouth was on fire for an entire hour.”

“You’re exaggerating, Alex-”

“I most certainly am not,” Alex cuts Reggie off.

“Or how about the time Luke tried to put glitter in Julie’s bed,” Carrie joins in, “but got my bed instead? I can appreciate some glitter, but even I know when enough is enough.”

“Suffice it to say,” Willie finishes after they’ve passed around a dozen or so more memories of pranks from the summer, “we’re all done being your collateral damage. Whatever Julie has planned for you tomorrow, Luke, you’re on your own.”

-

It's the last day of camp and Julie has one more prank planned for Luke. He just doesn't know what it is.

Here We Go Again (Rated T) [Julie x Luke]

Summary: Julie blinked as she stared at the place Euterpe had disappeared. What did that even mean? What journey? Old places and lost faces? What was she talking about? But before she could dwell on the questions swirling around in her mind, the sky full of stars began to move, shifting in place and descending until they were all around her. Julie felt her feet leave the ground as she rose up and up. One star in particular was burning brighter than the others, growing bigger in front of her.

It grew and grew, until the light was blinding and Julie had to throw a hand up against the harsh light. She closed her eyes as the light surrounded her and then she was falling. Falling down, down, down.

9. song stuck in my head: likey by twice because i wrote it and now i’m just going “na na na-na-na na na”

10. last movie i watched: before i start watching one right now, i think it was good will hunting. i didn’t watch it all the way through but i’ve seen it already. good movie, definitely recommend it <3

11. last show i watched: american horror story! if you’re talking about what i watched on my own, it was the devil is a part timer. i watch ahs with my mom

12. when did i create my blog: this is a question even i can’t answer. i don’t know, somewhere around four years ago or something? they still haven’t let me  update my blog so i can view nsfw stuff even though i’m 18. hopefully it’ll fix when it turns 2018

13. what do i post: pretty much anything and everything. lots of memes and relatable™ posts, and then lots and lots of bts and got7 or any general k-pop

14. last thing i googled: ”monster madness battle for suburbia characters” I WANTED TO KNOW IF MACHO MAN RANDY SAVAGE WAS ONE OF THE VOICES

15. do i have any other blogs: i do but i never post anything on them. well i do for @itsminsugastd, which is just a fanblog(?) of what i imagine min yoongi would post (also has a twitter under the same name lmao) because i get bored, so that’s just every once in awhile. i’ve got a fanfic blog @kingofhearts709-fanfiction that i’ve neglected because i literally can’t write anything on because i suck

16. do i get asks: i wish i got more asks. come send me some about whatever you want to talk about! can be nsfw, can just be fun, can be a question or comment, literally you can say something totally random and i’ll roll with it

17. why i chose my url: it was originally my deviantart username (which i am still active on mind you) and i just carried it over to all my other medias

18. following: 2415. i like a lot of content

19. followers: 889! lots of porn-bots follow me for some reason, and it’s taken me literally four years to get this many so w o w

20. average hours of sleep: depends. maybe 6 on average? sometimes more if i’m really tired, sometimes less if i wanna stay up and play video games or other things

21. lucky number: it’s been 17 and stuff like 101 for awhile. it used to be my age every single year and that’s when i’d change it, but 18 doesn’t feel like a lucky number to me

22. instruments: piano, ukulele (sort of) and violin! i guess sort of guitar but i don’t really like playing it, my fingers don’t cooperate

23. what am i wearing: some green pyjama bottoms, a doctor who shirt i fashioned into a sleeveless crop top, a grey camo bandana to keep my hair out of my face, and my big chunky glasses <3 

24. dream job: i would LOVE to be a writer or something! or maybe a singer or musician. but i really like just having a job and doing lots of hobbies, so my realistic dream job would just be a place (like a corporate company or something) that i could grow in and have it be enough to support me so i could go home and do all my hobbies i like to do

25. dream trip: i’ve always really wanted to go to the uk. i don’t know if it’s my inner tween telling me this, but the uk (probably london and then i would branch out to like wales and stuff) has always been really cool to me. then probably japan, china, korea, etc.

26. favorite food: sushi! if you buy me sushi i will love you forever

27. nationality: i guess american? no one ever asks me this question

28. favorite song: anything from moulin rouge! is a good one. and then of course beyond that it’s impossible to choose

29. last book read: speak. i didn’t even finish it but i’ve read it about ten times and it makes me really sad and thought-provoking when i finish it. sensitive topics, but it’s a really good read.

30. top three fictional universes i’d want to join: ouran koukou host club universe, they look like they have so much damn fun. and of course the doctor who universe, i don’t watch it anymore, but i’d love to just see a blue police box and have my dreams come true. i can’t really think of a third one, i guess the sherlock universe? that would be super cool.

thanks to lilbubsie for tagging me! i don’t really have anyone else to tag, so how bout i just say that ANYONE WHO WANTS TO DO IT JUST FILL IT OUT! i tag all of you! xoxo
