#just curious is it serious

[aspidities]

It’s Friday, Friday, and there’s no more historic power outages so guess that means it’s Fic Day!

This week I’m updating Just Curious (Is It Serious?) where you can read some healthy growth and conversations with an ex in Chapter 14 on AO3 or skip right ahead to Patreon and Chapter 15 where Kara is currently getting ready to Meet The Luthors:

Pray for Kara. Pray for her now and in her hour of need, which is….always.

“ok is this math really useful though what’s the point of it existing does it matter or is there no practical application” alright. if you write a poem does it matter? Is there an application? What if I killed you

I don’t get akeshu / shuake at all.

Like I get it from a typical “fandom loves the enemies to lovers trope” perspective but in all honesty I don’t get the insane brainrot the persona 5 fandom has for this ship.

Like do I think Joker cares for Akechi? Yes.

Do I think he was genuinely conflicted/tempted by Maruki’s ultimatum? Yes.

Do I think they have a genuine relationship and see a lot of themselves in each other and actually somewhat understand each other? Yes.

That being said, I really don’t see how anyone can look past the fact that Akechi tried to kill Joker. And okie fine enemies to lovers, fandom’s favorite ship aside, I don’t see how Joker can actually want a full on relationship (like romantic) with this dude when Futaba, Sojiro, and Haru are like right there?

This may just be me but I reallllllllly wouldn’t be friends with someone who is friends (hell forget even in a romantic relationship) with someone who horribly hurt me.

And I don’t think Joker loves Akechi more than Futaba, Sojiro, or Haru. Especially Sojiro and Futaba. Those two are like his family, and Akechi is responsible for their suffering.

Like… it’s kind of one or the other. Joker can’t be friends/dating Akechi without horribly betraying Futaba, Sojiro, and Haru. That’s just how I see it (but I’m open to hearing other perspectives!)

OK so is anyone going to talk about Agatha putting Teen’s safety above her own? This is the witch who is KNOWN for being selfish, and here she is with this cute emo teen who maybe reminds her of her son, and it’s all “no don’t make him drink the poison I’ll do it”, not to mention a few other scenes. I have seen this trope a hundred times and I will happily watch it a hundred more. I’m LIVING for it.

Doctor Who has its technobabble, Hamlet and Macbeth are infamous for their wild lines, he’s played a Marvel villain and a literal serial killer, but if you really want to hear David Tennant saying some fuckin unhinged shit, I’m telling you, it’s Duck Tales.

…Headcanon that the next time Kaveh gets in trouble in desert (where he is on a research trip with Alhaitham) and is lost/separated from his companion, the three desert foxes come to his help out of nowhere and lead him back to Alhaitham.

When they are back and Alhaitham listens to Kaveh telling him about how the foxes helped him, one of the aforementioned foxes intensely stares Alhaitham dead in the eyes. Alhaitham stares back at it, and after a few moments barely noticeably nods.

For the sake of his (exhausted after a whole day in the desert) sanity Kaveh asks no questions. Alhaitham acts like nothing happened. The foxes return to the desert the next day when they depart.

A silent “We entrust the good human to you. Please, take care of him,” remains a small secret between the desert and the scribe (as well as a request he will gladly see to).

Jaune: *looking in a mirror* ... For all the talk you do, have you really changed?

Jaune reflection: No. You know who you are deep down. You know what you did to them. What was their name again?

Jaune: ...

Jaune reflection: Ah, i remember now. They were called the paper pleaser, right? So frail, so fragile... So eager to please. You used them for your own sick pleasure.

Jaune: *screaming at the mirror* I THOUGHT GAVE THEM WHAT THEY WANTED! I-i... *Crying* they asked for a stronger body and i gave it to them!

Jaune reflection: *taking the form of a child looking robot* Oh you did, didn't you? A body of steel. Unable to feel pain, unable to be armed. Unable to change, unable to die!

Jaune: I DIDN'T KNOW! I JUST...

Jaune reflection?: *taking the face of the curious cat* We both know that's a lie Jaune. After all, life and death is a cycle and all creatures needs it to have a drive. Because if you are eternal, what does taking years to make something cost you? You robed them of their drive Jaune and you know how truly terrible that is.

Jaune: *Punching the mirror, breaking it in pieces* SHUT UP!

Curious cat?: *laughing while slowly fading from the mirror, leaving only Jaune*

Jaune: I'M... I'm not HIM anymore...

hey quick very important normal question:

edit: I forgot trolls check the reblogs to vote trolls in a totally sensical and efficient fix <3

[aspidities]

It is Friday, my dudes, and I am posting Just Curious (Is It Serious?) again. Check your divination altars and augers.

Soo this chapter was supposed to be the start of the ending, and it kind of is, but it ended up being much-needed character conversations and fluffy smut, so you get that instead while I try to write an ending that isn’t Entirely Bad.

Enjoy Kara’s self-inflicted trauma and Lena’s very patient waiting it out! And also me waiting diligently for an excuse to use this gif:

Come join the nerds over on Patreon for Chapter 13 or catch up and darken your doorway with some good ol rollicking rut smut over at AO3 for Chapter 12

And a very good pre-Spoopy Month Weekend to you all! 🦇

oh my fucking god i feel. SO stupid rn at How i didnt make the (super sane very normal just absolutely. Yes. Surely) connection earlier but uhh

so anyway im now like 89% certain that whatever the "traces" of the narwhal that remain on ajax and facilitate their (ever-growing) innate connection are like. an actually fundamental aspect of it (them?) more or less.

why? because if you consider its pov just for a moment. the narwhal was literally about to depart teyvat for good. it had nearly finished consuming the primordial sea and preparing to breach surface to finish the job by eating the french for the leftovers their human bodies were made from. its an interstellar voyager it does not linger on planets it devours. it goes glug glug and it leaves.

and like if it wasnt for traveler intervening its confirmed through narzissenkreuz and renes world formula that teyvat wouldve just been destroyed. no one could have stopped the narwhal not neuvillette not focalors not anyone.

so what was the one other thing it did right before going for that french brunch? calling for ajax. getting them reunited in the primordial sea. like all the possible implications aside bc theres many different ways to speculate on the exact reasons why and the nature of that link. the point remains.

it wasnt leaving teyvat without finding him.

like the narwhal is about to fucking Dip from this cringe planet and whatever part of it that ajax carries within himself his narwhal Absolutely wanted to be reunited with. what the fuck am i supposed to read from that. hoyo???????!??! answers?!?!?!

and its not only the calling from the narwhal side itself either bc this is ALL coinciding with the growth of a 'restless power' within ajax and his vision malfunctioning (the things celestia is literally confirmed to harvest energy thru to repair its damaged authority) and his connection with the narwhal reaching an actual conscious level (arguably subconscious n emotional too bc i find it Curious his mood is poor right as the narwhal is repeatedly described as positively malding to the point its boss fight mechanic is literally a rage meter). ajax' power is growing. his destiny is starting to shift and something is drawing him to fontaine... right as the narwhal is getting close to finished with the primordial sea. funny how it overlaps eh. how it aligns 🤨🤨 why are they orbiting each other like this (they should kiss)

(& not to even Mention how ajax just Happened to get that absolutely exponential and borderline unbelievable feat of power spike in extending his foul legacy endurance as massively as he did. while. within the primordial sea. with his narwhal. who had at that point all but incorporated the power of that sea into itself. i s2g if childe was getting passive home turf co-op bonus exp with a 4x multiplier automatically the whole 40+ days 💀💀)

I have a question for the very small niche of people that are knowledgeable enough on both of these subjects to answer my question.

Is the Warhammer universe relatively comparable to the Warrior Cats universe in regard to their creation history, some concepts, and lore mostly being found in the form of book?

Cuz like, from an outsider perspective on both, they are both popular pieces of media that can take up and become a pillar of someone’s interests and personality. With very extensive lore, again, found mostly in books.

Like the main difference to me just seems to be Games Workshop has a better grasp of quality control on its products than Warrior Cats does.

[kinardsevan]

so realistically speaking, when do we think the helicopter crash is going to happen?

also, do we feel like Buck will be in the helicopter WITH Tommy for dual angst, or that Tommy will crash on his own and put Buck through the angst of seeing him suffer after? (answer in tags or comments).
