have a little idea of a drabble if that’s ok!
just. some squirreljessy fluff. maybe squirrelflight has had a fight with bramblestar, so jessy comforts her and then they decide to run away together?
Tumblr media
this is such an old ask WAA when i was doing writing rqs in 2022 (i am no longer but) this one is for u anon *looks up at the sky* i started this almost 2 years ago and its not rlly done but I am all out of steam and am in no way a real writer so i just gave up this is what i got cw bad (i do not feel this vehemently abt anything here sorry i just got rlly into character LOL
“Run away with me, Squirrelflight.” 
Jessy’s meow was level, calm, as if the words she had just uttered were completely ordinary and not life-changing in the slightest.
Squirrelflight sputtered, choking on the mouse she had just settled down to eat. 
“W-what?” 
The deputy was now acutely aware of the deafening silence all around her, occasionally broken by the occasional squawk of a bird or creak of a branch. 
Unnerved, Squirrelflight suddenly wished for the comforting babble of her clanmates to fill the air, draining the tension from the too-quiet woods. But she knew none would come, the area they were in was a little more than a 10-minute walk from camp after all.
 It was just the two of them. 
The dark ginger molly suddenly shifted uncomfortably as the air seemed to get heavier, the little patch of forest they were in seemingly more enclosed and less spacious by the minute. It was as if the whole territory was as shocked by Jessy’s words as Squirrelflight was. 
The deputy’s partner had wheedled Squirrelflight for a moment alone all day, much to Bramblestar's chagrin. Squirrelflight’s former mate kept making up excuses for her to ignore Jessy’s request, sending Squirrelflight on errand after errand as if she were nothing but a misbehaving apprentice!
It made Squirrelflight’s claws itch and pelt prickle with frustration and she so longed to fire back at the brown tabby tom’s nonsensical demands, but she held her tongue, just this once. She wanted to meet with Jessy without being interrupted or hounded about undone checklists, thank you very much. 
So she trudged along the obstacle course Bramblestar had purposefully set for her, completing task after task (which included elder den management, tick-removal, border re-marking, herb stockpiling, and fresh-kill charting) until she was finally finished with a good enough portion to be excused for personal time. 
 Squirrelflight had quietly slipped away with a mouse in maw to meet her mate at their favorite spot in the territory: an old crooked oak tree with gnarled roots and a gaping hole beneath it big enough to house two full-grown cats. Squirrelflight had squeezed in, waiting for Jessy to meet her there. 
She momentarily relived the burst of affection she’d felt when she’d seen the brown she-cat pad closer to her location.
Whatever Squirrelflight has been expecting Jessy to say, it had certainly not been this. 
“You heard me.” The brown kittypet snapped, leaning in closer to meet Squirrelflight’s bewildered green gaze. 
“We can’t be happy here, love. Not with him around. Run away with me, Squirrelflight.” 
Squirrelflight gulped down the rest of her mouse, the prey dropping into her belly like a cold stone. 
“I- he… I know Bramblestar can be a bit… difficult.” 
“A bit is an understatement.” Jessy unsheathed her claws with a growl. 
“The guy’s a total asshole, Squirrelflight. We both know it.” 
Squirrelflight flattened her ears. 
Damn. She’s right. 
“I know, Jessy.” Squirrelflight sighed. “I know that better than any cat. But…” 
Jessy frowned. 
“But what? You’ve dealt with enough of his bullshit for a lifetime! I’ve only been here for a season and he’s already driving me crazy! I don’t know how you put up with it for so long.”
Jessy lashed her tail, her claws kneading at the ground impatiently. Squirrelflight placed her white paw on the she-cat’s shoulder, gazing at her with a silent plea. The molly’s amber gaze softened for a heartbeat, melting into the warm honeyed kindness that Squirrelflight had fallen for, before hardening back into the stern amber the deputy also admired. 
“Please try to understand, Jessy. I can’t just pick up and leave my clan out of the blue. I have responsibilities here.” 
An image of a lithe brown and white tabby flashed in Squirrelflight’s head, along with an elderly pale ginger molly and two younger toms. 
Leafpool, Sandstorm, Lionblaze, Jayfeather. 
Another vision crowded Squirrelflight’s mind, one of ThunderClan cats, big and small, hunting, patrolling, sharing tongues, and laughing as a group. 
My family and my clanmates are both so precious to me. Oh how could I be so cruel as to leave them? 
Squirrelflight closed her eyes, trying to choke back her rising distress at the thought of abandoning them all for her own desires. 
They need me. It would be selfish to just walk out when I’ve dedicated my whole life to them. 
“Are you thinking about your kin?” Jessy’s voice softened, her usual fire dimming. 
Squirrelflight nodded, blinking. “And my clanmates. Oh, Jessy, I can’t. I couldn’t. How could I leave them all?” 
Jessy looked away, her gaze darkening. 
“Squirrel…” Jesse’s maw slowly closed. 
Squirrelflight felt a rush of panic.
“It’s not that I don’t love you, it’s just-“
“Your duty. I know, I know.“ Jessy leaned over and brushed her muzzle against the deputy’s cheek.
“I just wish it could be easy.” 
 “I know Jessy, me too.” Squirrelflight sucked in a breath. “No matter what I think of Bramblestar, my clan always comes first.”
“But what about you?” Jessy burst out, bristling. 
“Why should you continue dealing with that whiny bastard just for the sake of another cat’s wellbeing? Gah- what about your own?” 
Jessy’s teeth grinded and she let out an irritated hiss. Squirrelflight was pressed against her side in an instant, curling her bushy tail over her companion’s back as an attempt to soothe her nerves. 
Jessy took a deep breath through her nose and let it out through her maw, the tension in her frame slowly softening. The brown molly sagged against the deputy’s side, her face pressing against Squirrelflight’s thick-furred shoulder. 
“Feel better?” Squirrelflight offered, giving one of Jessy’s ears a quick lick. 
“Mmrgh… no.” Jessy grunted, lifting her head, her expression twisting into a deep frown. 
“I love you so much, Squirrelflight. You know that right? So it’s absolutely infuriating to watch that rotten pile of manure treat you like a kitten who’s wet behind the ears and not the capable pillar of ThunderClan I know you are.” 
Squirrelflight felt a deep purr rumble in her chest, words unable to express how thankful she was for her companions' support. 
“Oh Jessy, I love you too. I’ll have to consider it for a bit though. I hope you understand.” 
“Of course.” Jessy meowed, padding forward to affectionately bump foreheads with her. 
“Hey, I know I said a lot of shit alright, but this is your decision. I won’t force you to do anything, and whatever you decide, I’ll be fine. Don’t pay any mind to my emotional blubbering, this is about you and what you're comfortable with. I can handle that fuzz-brained idiot myself, I was just concerned about how he affects you. I know it’s a huge thing to consider, with you having folks here and all and it’s reasonable to have doubts. Just know I’ll be with you through thick and thin, Squirrelflight.” 
Jessy pulled away, a twinkle in her amber eyes.
“No matter what.” 
“Thank you Jessy.” Squirrelflight grinned, suddenly feeling a rush of energy she hadn’t felt since she was a young cat. 
“Now… I think I’d like to have a little chat with Bramblestar. I didn’t appreciate how he made me his errand cat today.

why does so much of mel discourse on this site centre on to what measure she did or did not manipulate jayce like that's the extent of her complexity and grey morality, as if she has not directly and indirectly been contributing to the opression of zaun not because she's prejudiced or hates them but simply because she profits from it, like i am so sorry my queen that they don't get you like i get you
#arcane#mel medarda#ella originals#in fact i do think it's soooo interesting that mel being an immigrant didn't really grow up with the ingrained prejudice like most piltovan#(it's cait's lines in her first ever scene--she's not at all malicious it's just a part of her worldview that the undercity is dangerous)#(and that's not something she ever grows out of which is such a huge fail for the show but that's a discussion for another time)#mel doesn't hate zaunites or anything she just doesn't care#she is a kind and compassionate person but all that is hyperfocused on directly opposing her mother's violent imperialism#and not in the sense of well the price in blood to be extracted for our advancement is too much and not worth it#but the advancement--progress if you will--can be accomplished through avenues other than violent imperialism and expansionism so it's fine#and it doesn't matter to her that those other means are just as bloody and that it's very much NOT FINE#it's such a fascinating contradiction and a blind spot and i am SO ANGRY s2 made her a wizard instead of exploring it#a zaunite revolution could have had her whole world collapsing around her#WE WERE ON OUR WAY#IT WAS ALREADY HAPPENING WITH THE BRIDGE MASSACRE THAT'S WHY SHE ORIGINALLY SUPPORTED ZAUNITE INDEPENDENCE#because the blood she's been spilling finally came to flood her door too and she had to face the fact that she was not so different from he#mother at all that's why she took off her ring before she cast her vote#and we could've gone so much further with that i wanted to see everything this woman believed she knew about herself collapse around her#i wanted DRAMA and EXPLORATION and CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT#anyway this got away from me but my point was i see so many people acting as if the reason mel's morally grey is bc she manipulated jayce#as if she's not actively profiting off of violent oppression of zaunites#in case it was somehow unclear none of this is me being anti-mel i adore my queen with all my heart

DAREDEVIL | 1.01
Our practice is relatively young, Miss Page, and we are aggressively pursing new clientele.
#Daredeviledit#Karen Page#Matt Murdock#Foggy Nelson#Deborah Ann Woll#Charlie Cox#Elden Henson#Daredevil#DD 1.01#Not Revolution#GIF set#Mine#Daredevil OT3#Somehow I erased like a bunch of this show from my memory - maybe because I haven't properly watched it for 9 years#But I've just spent the week going through S1 of DD and the original season had so much heart and everyone cried#Everyone had a breakdown#They got overwhelmed and disappointed and angry with each other#and it slides so effortlessly into a slow build as they start introducing all the characters AND I FORGOT KAREN WAS THEIR FIRST CLIENT#And that Foggy bribed Brett for a heads up if 'something interesting' walked into the precinct.#And they just sort of adopt her#This is our Karen now#Please stop trying to arrest her for murder#It's sort of a person version of a foster fail. She's just going to stay at Matt's house for one night. And then maybe work at the office.#And okay now she's buying office equipment and helping us investigate and being a drinking buddy.#And she's making friends with a reporter and being a translator. But it's nothing serious. She hasn't accidentally become very important#to our mental health. She'll go back to her regular life when the case is over. This is all very normal.#Except for all the murders that keep happening.#And oh no - we've accidentally become a crime fighting team... WHOOPS.#Off Topic: I wish DDBA was on at the end of the week rather than the middle. It gives me way too much time to think between episodes.#And what is with the colouring in this show? There's no need for this much yellow.

yea i rewatched the s1 finale. did a lil doodle about it
#GODDD I NEED MORE PPL TO TALK ABOUT IL-NAM AND GI-HUN'S FINAL CONVERSATION#and i need them to like actually pay attention this time#stg its one of the more misunderstood scenes of the series#ive seen some people seeing it as a clash of two totally valid ideologies when like#no one of these things is clearly wrong. characters can have flawed logic even if they SOUND convincing#il-nams so fuckin good at manipulating that hes manipulated the audience NOOOO#people got too convinced that il-nam was in the right when he said 'well people came back on their own accord'#as if we didnt have an episode explicitly showing us the characters very shitty lives outside of the games#that forced them back into them#as if we werent explicitly shown gi-huns situation in great detail in e1 that landed him in the games in the first place#also i do NOT agree with any kinda sentiment that gi-hun is 'just as bad as the VIPs' for playing that game w/ il-nam#i mean. the dude was clearly reeling from the fucking BETRAYAL HES EXPERIENCING>??#and also il-nam is very manipulative as i said before. i think he was good at redirecting their interaction so that in the moment gi-hun >#> kinda forgets could ditch il-nam and go outside n save the homeless man himself#<- not really perfectly worded but i hope yall get what i mean#plus in s1 it was shown that gi-hun could sometimes not think ahead or clearly#especially when his emotions are running high#like. idk. when he realizes the man hes grieved and felt immense guilt over for a year is actually an evil ass rich dude who orchestrates >#> the mass murder of people in debt#god i am one PETTY ASS BITCH cuz i will NOT LET THIS GO#anyways. i just think that il-nams betrayal is just so so fucked because i was really Thinking about it as i rewatched the ep and#gi-hun likely grieved il-nam the same way he grieved the other friends he had in the games. he probably saw him in his nightmares too.#remembered how he'd hugged him even though gi-hun had been tricking him#(SIDE NOTE. ITS FUCKED THAT ONLY THE EVIL OLD MAN HAS HUGGED GI-HUN. CAN SOMEONE WHO ISNT EVIL BE NICEYS TO HIM.)#all of that. all of that grief and all of that love. what does it even mean now.#gi-hun is embarrassed hes been made a fool of hes angry hes heartbroken#squid game#seong gi hun#my art#doodle

i find the similarities and differences between how apollo/kazuma and ryuunosuke react to their loved ones deaths. ryuunosuke takes karuma and wraps kazumas headband on it, bringing it with him and having it be the reason to why he is a lawyer, like how apollo wears clays jacket and how he leaves to independently investigate for clay but they differ from there. kazuma gets rid of his headband which he started wearing for ryuunosuke, symbolically getting rid of his past attachments and becoming a new person. apollo wears a bandage around his eye to stop himself from perceiving athena’s lies. kazuma and apollo both do things that destroy their own selves- kazuma is not the best friend ryuunosuke knew and apollo refuses to perceive and accuses athena. apollo has a disturbing resemblance to kristoph, even repeating “evidence is everything in court”. kazuma becomes aggressive, breaking his soul on gregson’s trunk due to his anger and his need for the truth behind his fathers death. apollo and kazuma both dramatically change after deaths. apollo mirrors kristoph, kazuma breaks his soul, and they both disengage with past friends in their desperate search for the truth, harming themselves and others. ryuunosuke takes kazumas death as a reason to keep going as a lawyer, while apollo and kazuma push themselves to the extreme to find out the truth.

hey lost fans I know we already know about the misogyny problem in this fandom but something that's been really pissing me thw fuck off lately is the fact that I swear to god like half of you are obsessed with undermining certain canon m/f ships for literally the dumbest fucking reasons and half the time it's because you just don't find the female half of it "interesting enough" and like. do you fucking hear yourselves. you are the same people who come up with the most random out of pocket bullshit m/m rarepair and like, yeah, there's nothing wrong with that, I love m/m rarepairs too, but if you can sit here and create chemistry that only exists in your fucking brain for a ship that otherwise does not make any goddamn sense then I also think you should be able to just make shit up about a female character too. so many of these woman have so much potential as characters that aren't fully realized in the show and you have the ability to give them more as characters but you are choosing not to because you literally just don't fucking find women interesting. you make up reasons to care about men all the time but you can't do the same for women? either recognize your biases or fucking log off. I'm tired.

tis here!! My stupid little beta pdbc comic!! UHHHHH
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
additional ramblings because I don’t know how to stop yapping:
I know the ending is extremely abrupt but honestly? I can’t even lie I think it’s funnier and somehow more in character that way. There is no way in hell he’d question what just happened he’d just lay on the floor and say “alas!” As if that is in any way is a proper response to what just happened. So no apologies for that, I genuinely think the ending is amazing and won’t hear anything else. Alas.
I WAS REALLY SCREWED OVER WITH THE TEN IMAGE MOBILE LIMIT SO THE PACING IS VERY IFFY!! That alongside the fact I wanted to get this out as quickly as possible to gauge opinions and such—therefore making this much less detailed than I’d like to have made it, yes that’s my own fault I know—means that I couldn’t properly show what the briar zome is like (HEARTBREAKING). It’s a lot more spacious and unending than what’s shown here. In this it only looks like you’re there for a few minutes but experiences there can last up to a week. There are also a lot more thorns and spiked vines, it’s just that, like I said, I wanted to get this posted quickly and coloring in all of those spikes probably took more time than some of the drawings themselves. Had I made this as accurate to canon as possible, it would be much more visually cluttered. The briar zome is VERY hard to traverse because almost everything is covered in thorns (hence the name). Also worth noting that although it’s seemingly wintry there, there’s no actual temperature in the briar zome which is why pumpkin daddy is not fucking freezing to death (you have to look DAPPER when you’re illegally eating crabs)
This technically isn’t canon. This is a mishmash of all of the stuff I have about the briar zome, but in canon it’s all much more spread out, e.g. the eyes weren’t discovered until a few trips in when they actually bothered trying to figure out if/where the briar zome ends, in which BAM they found a buncha eyes!! Speaking of the eyes, their official names are Sotes, and where they’re found is called the “Eyes Rink” (GET IT!!! EYES!!! ICE!!! GET I-💥💥💥)
you’re probably wondering what the Miika chimp incident is, which is a fair thing to be wondering, however I will not be elaborating because I think it’s funnier that way. sorry (I am not at all sorry)
AND THE TIIIIIIME yes indeed the time works differently there. As one could. Probably guess by the wack-ass watch positions. The briar zome does in fact have its own time system that’s displayed differently than most would be used to. Alas, I had to cut that part short because I realized I was quickly running out of pages and I really wanted space to draw some of those beautiful beautiful eyeballs. I has this whole lecture about different types of watch hand designs and their names but that was unfortunately cut for time (ironically)
anyway uh. hope this was somewhat enjoyable? *EXPLODES*

rant but im a bit scared im going to get attacked
#so im hiding in the tags and book tok is the subject today#psa: skip past the fourth wing rant to see what im actually talking about#so. the abomination that is FOURTH WING#(my review on it was the longest i have ever written lmfao)#dont get me wrong there are good parts to the book!#most of them are plagiarised from like at least 10 other books tho#the one good thing is the dragon worldbuilding (if u could call it that) but honestly. that's probably plagiarised from smt idk#the pacing is horrible#and yes it was weirdly gripping but in the way you are gripped by a nightmare when u cant get yourself to wake up#anyways i havent even got onto the characters yet. fmc has no personality and mmc is tall and dark and brooding#supposedly enemies to lovers and it should have been given unsolved family business but nope they just want to shag UGH#anyways this was triggered by me talking to my friend's friend who is currently reading it and i was honestly gobsmacked#do book tok readers have no critical thinking (not generalisation im just mad)#like she said six of crows was worse than fourth wing#and it just pissed me off because people just read bad literature from book tok just for the smut when there is GOOD SMUT FOR FREE#FANFIC EXISTS BUT THE STIGMA IS TOO MUCH#and so there are authors who are writing terrible plagiarised shit and profiting off it#and then there are the valiant fanfic writers#like pls im so mad rn especially bc there are so many problems w book tok books (gender roles + pick me stuff etc etc)#one thing that really bothers me is the willingness to just ignore how toxic mmcs are just because they're hot or whatever#it's so problematic (also ppl excusing irl people just bc they're funny)#im so angry because book tok (aside from specific few books) is just a den of plagiarism and capitalism#and im also mad because when did the actual appreciation of good writing (not even literature) just GOOD writing die#and it died because of all things people want to read smut like you can have both and free from fanfic#note that this is not a personal attack this is more of a frustration rant and i do not mean to point fingers at all book tok readers#i just want to highlight the problems w it (mainly plagiarism and excusing weird things and normalising other stuff)#space boo screams into the void#book tok#literature#fanfiction

idk if there's anything in stories i get more petty about than poorly-written "main character shows up to a new place and meets everyone" character introduction scenes
#personal#they make me SO ANGRY ahglkmsfkl#it isnt just the trope of showing up and meeting everyone either#like it works for me in some things!#i think pacific rim does a really good job with characterization for example#and it's got a sequence of scenes where raleigh arrives and the audience is introduced to the shatterdome & important characters basically#my working theory until i do some more analysis is that stories that do it well leave some mystery#like in pacrim you don't find out mako's whole deal immediately upon meeting her#pentecost doesnt go ''this is mako mori. one of our brightest. her whole family was killed by a kaiju and she wants to be a pilot''#he says she's in charge of the mk 3 restoration program#and she doesn't immediately offer up her backstory because why would she. real people dont do that#the russian pilots dont show up and go ''hello we are russian''. pentecost just tells raleigh briefly who they are#etc. newt & hermann's intro scene is one of my favourite bits of characterization Ever and you don't learn that much about hermann during i#all the info you get is from newt being chatty and ridiculous and mocking hermann and putting his foot in his mouth. i.e. newt being newt#and that's what makes it good!#when chuck and herc are introduced you learn absolutely nothing about chuck. hes just there in the background#he and raleigh look at each other for a second and you kinda go ''who's that guy''#AND THATS ENOUGH TO ESTABLISH HIM AS ''PROBABLY IMPORTANT LATER''#idk idk but so many books do this kind of scene so badly that it pisses me off#so many POPULAR books too. like i either am uniquely annoyed about this or other people are way more willing to overlook it lol#as far as examples go. the house in the cerulean sea and every heart a doorway were the books where i got so annoyed i immediately DNFed#i feel like the long way to a small angry planet does it a little bit but not as bad. i cant remember for sure it's been a while#i did finish that one but i had extremely mixed feelings about it#and now im reading a big ship at the edge of the universe and. once again it is happening#aaaargh

I know ppl couldn't care less about the humans in the cgi movies but Zoe and Dr. Rubin were both hilarious characters and the more i rewatch the movies the more i think about that.
#we all know Ian was the best human character simply bc David cross was great on it but i think these two are pretty funny!!#the idea of an adult woman hyping the chipmunks is so adorable and a great way to explain why Alvin nevergot expelled lmao#and zoe was simply hilarious! maybe because i find her out-of-reality personality too appealing#it's such a shame the writers of the cgi movies couldn't write Dave better bc while i don't hate him like other ppl#i do think he is one of the least interesting human characters in all the movies#i don't think it's the actor's fault they just didn't know what to do with his character besides being a strict dad for the chipmunks#but funny enough i do think dave from the cgi series is even more boring despite there are episodes focused on him#i love when he is all affectionate with his sons and the chipettes but he is so bland without that and sometimes way too strict#i still can't believe there is an episode focused on the chipmunks getting scared of Dave knowing they spilled milk#it just shows how many times he has get angry for the most simply things#it doesn't help AT ALL that the show has barely likeable human characters i mean i adore miss smith but i do get why ppl don't like her#miss croner is an amazing contrast to miss miller! but i do think they write her way too aggressive at times#officer dangus is the only character besides miss miller that i find decent without giving a 'but' in the middle#the classmates of the chipmunks.... Yeah we don't talk about them#i would like to go further with the humans characters of the 80's show but i still need to watch a LOT of episodes#but i would say that most of the episodic human characters of the 80's have been pretty nice so far#i loved the old lady that got a date with Alvin!! she was way too sweet with him and i love the way alvin learn his lesson at the end#also it has the best dave so far!! he is a lovely dad and he can be funny on his own way. i can tell he is just doing his best ahaha#aatc#alvin and the chipmunks

Ford: ...but I suppose I've gotten better
I tried to give a short comment on my thoughts in the tags but now the tags are longer than this post. whoops.
