#like ummm i'm here for the plot 🙄🙄

[dramatic-dolphin]

i used to religiously delete the browsing history on the shared computer when i was like reading 18-rated fanfiction at the age of 9, but in retrospect i didn't have to do that because my parents never checked shit on the computer lmaoo

Trope Game

Thank you @septemberrie for the tag. I loovee these “games” so of course I’m in the second I saw it 🤩 I loved reading your perspective on this soo here’s mine ☺️

Rules: How much do these tropes affect your decision to click on a fic?

-10 -> very dissuaded

0 -> don’t care either way

10 -> very enticed

nope -> if it’s a hard no and you’d never click on a fic with that tag or or you even have the tag blocked or you’d insta click out of the fic if it wasn’t tagged.

Bonus points for explaining the rating and whether it’s conditional

Age Gap: -2/10

I've always kind of been toing and froing on this one. I think it's mainly how big the gap is and if it's legal. A minor and teacher? Hard pass. Up to, let's say, 10 years (in adults), I can go with it if it's good.

Codependency: 0/10

Hmm, I think it depends for me on what the rest of the tags would be. If it's a healthy relationship, a lil codependency won't hurt it. Or if it's part of a bigger plot and it's needed for that angst sprinkle... But if that's the main point of the fic, and it borders a bit on the crazy, destructive, I'd probably pass.

Enemies to lovers: 100000+/10

When I say, I eat these fics up... I think this is probably the tag for me. If I see this, most of the time, I click it. There's just something in this trope - the angst, the hurt, the step-by-step unravelment of the story, the eye-openers... I just love it <3

Enemies With Benefits: 8/10

Probably a yes, but only if it's part of the enemies-to-lovers tag. Because otherwise, I can't quite understand it, and like Skye said... too much of it in the real world, and it ain't good.

Fake Dating/Relationship: 0/10

I don't quite have a special opinion on this. If the rest of the tags interest me, I'm all in. For example, if it's combined with enemies-to-lovers (is this a pattern? 😂), I'mma dive straight in! Otherwise, we carry on.

Found Family: 10/10

How can you not love it? Give me one good reason not to love it, I dare you!

Friends To Lovers: -5/10

It's just not my cup of tea. I don't know why, but whenever I've seen movies or read books, whatever, with this trope, it was never the main point that got me into it. Sometimes it's overly sweet (not saying that's bad, but there's no angst or interesting pinning moments or drama in them), and sometimes, it's just the Ross-Rachel thing (don't get me started there 🙄)

Friends With Benefits: 0/10

No special thoughts on this one, either. Sometimes I like it, sometimes I don't. Kind of always depends on the rest of the tags, I guess 🤔

Hurt/Comfort: 100/10

I am not as eloquent as Skye is, so... everything she said, I agree. I just love the pain part wrapped in care and comfort... Winter hug y'all!

Love Triangle: 1/10

Very much depends on who the characters in the triangle are and what outcome there may be. But in general, again, depends on the rest of the tags.

Mistaken/Hidden Identity: 4/10

It can be good, but for me, it depends on the story and the idea behind it. If it creates more drama and suspense and "uuu no, they didn't" kind of moments, then I'm so in for that. Like a spy thing or a secret agent kind of stuff.

Monster Fu… Relationship: nope/10

Ummm no. Just no. (Excluding paranormal romances. Love those.)

Obsession, Possessiveness, etc.: -8/10

This just doesn't work for me. To be fair, if it's a tiny, microscopic amount, part of jealousy, then I can roll with it. Otherwise, if it's a main piece, it's definitely a no.

Opposites (like grumpy×sunshine, etc): 7/10

I do believe that you can't have two characters (as in life) together that are completely the same. You have to have one like one thing, the other not; one is evil, the other not (see my pattern again? 😂). Buutt, they kind of have to have something in common, right?

Poly: 0/10

Up to the point where I started writing threesomes, I would've probably said meh. Now, smut fics can be fun with poly. But relationships... I guess I'm still no for my main ships.

Pregnancy: 0/10

I don't usually go for fics with this tag, but it depends on my mood. Sometimes I wanna see how other people perceive those possible moments. Who knows, I may have to write something like that someday.

Second Chance: 10/10

Oh, hell yeah! I can smell the angst on these ones even before I click the link. Like Skye said, especially when the separation was out of their hands.

Sex To Feelings: 10/10

Yes, please. For me, these are the best specifically when combined with enemies to lovers or fake dating.

Slowburn: 10/10

Will they, won't they? I love these. Nothing more to say. I just love 'em.

Soulmates: 4/10

I'm not always sold on it, but it highly depends on the rest of the tags, I guess.

Tagging: @loveisthemoment @fitztragedy @somenamewithepineapple It's fun, try it, would love to know your take on this. No pressure thoo! Oh and anyone else that wants to join, consider yourself tagged ✨

Disclaimer: First things first, because it needs to be said, I am not catholic or christian. But! I grew up in between both communities, and they made me study the bible, superficially, just to make their point.

My parents allowed me to grew up reading fairytales and stuff that would never ever be dreamed lol so things like witchcraft, paganism, hinduism, buddhism, among other things and luckily the schools I went didn't care about it enough because they gave money to them. Yeah, very much like gossip girl. You can really get away with a lot of things if you throw enough money. So:

1. This post, is not meant to be religious.

2. I study literature and art. I'm supposed to read this book as part of my studies. But because of my years at school were a complete torture, I decided to create these notes to have fun while I'm at it. Otherwise I don't think I'll be able to finish it.

3. This post doesn't pretend to attack on any kind of beliefs displayed here. I just want to rationalize it. I'm still a firm believer that if there's a god, that god loves us no matter what we do: And there's no hell.

Let's go through Genesis together...

Genesis 3:17 KJV - 17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;

So basically God creates all. Makes them similar and then punishes them for doing something he would have done. But he knows it all. Suuure kiddo. 🙄

Genesis 4:15-17 KJV - .

16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.

17 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.

Either his wife is Lilith or Eve. If it's Eve means he committed incest(?)

Also, why does the Lord forsakens Cain, Adam and Eve if he is supposed to forgive it all??? 😭

Genesis 5:7 KJV - And Seth lived after he begat Enos eight hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters:

They are freaking vampires 😱🤣

Genesis 5:26 KJV - And Methuselah lived after he begat Lamech seven hundred eighty and two years, and begat sons and daughters:

pls stawwp 😭💀 the whole chapter brings nothing to the plot.

Genesis 6:7 KJV

And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

Psycho killer God enters scene.. so far he was only narcissist 😳

Genesis 6:12 KJV - And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.

B-but we're supposed to be like youuuuu 😭🤣🤣 I think he hates himself way too much, we're not that bad. 👀

Genesis 6:14 KJV - Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.

So much for being a favourite of the Lord lol he makes you work like there's no tomorrow.. oh wait~~ lol

Genesis 6:15 KJV - this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.

ummm god.... shall i show you this youtube video i found where it's proven that this is impossible based on the physics you gave to this planet???

Genesis 6:16 KJV - A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it

They're gonna die of stinkinness because of everyone's poop 😭😭 so nooooo pleaaaasee. What have they done to you? Weren't they your favorite family and all that?... forgive me father for i have sinned but don't make me your favorite please(?)

Genesis 7:6 KJV - And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.

So he was really young uh? 💀

Genesis 7:8 KJV

Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,

wdym clean and not clean? take a shower before entering the Ark pls😭😭

Genesis 7:13 KJV

In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;

can't stop thinking about termites, woodpeckers, and poop 🙊😵

must be really stinky there 😬💩

Genesis 8:4 KJV

And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.

they could have just moved on to another place lol apparently the flood wasn't everywhere. 🥴😶

Genesis 8:5 KJV

And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.

The mountains must be like.... not that high.

Genesis 8:6 KJV

And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made:

😳 you're telling me he survived all that poop!?

Genesis 8:17 KJV

Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.

This guy sounds like he's a vouyerist tbh 😶

(Genesis - First 4 chapters)

Narcissistic/Bipolar God: I created y'all. You're like me. Obbey me. Love me. I'm leaving this cookie here! ^♡^

>.> don't touch or eat it.

(Genesis - chapter 5 to 8)

Psycho Killer God: let's make a terrarium. let's kill them all by flooding everything.

(Genesis - Chapter 8)

Genesis 8:21 KJV

And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.

Vouyerist God: Okay, now let me watch you while you have sex 😀🧐

*they start cooking and God smells smth*

What is that smell? There's pie!? is it for meeeee???

Genesis 9:1 KJV

And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.

Vouyerist God: 'Kay I killed your kind, but chill dude! Now let me watch ya having sex 👀🍿

Genesis 9:3 KJV

Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.

God: You can kill too!! ^♡^

Genesis 9:4 KJV

But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.

God: I don't like Hannibal 😒 Don't be like Hannibal!! Or I'll kill ya 😇

Genesis 9:5 KJV

And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man.

Vampire God: Ohhh BTW I'm a vampire *reveals*

Noah: 😳

Genesis 9:29 KJV

And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.

i~~ another vampire I see 😀

Genesis 10:15-17 KJV - And Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth,

16 And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite, 17 And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,

Where do they get all these names? O.o The person narrating this one must have been obsessed with names ._.

I mean... I understand because I have lists with thousands of names because duhh i'm a writer too. But seriously??? Why do I need so many names when IDGF about them cuz next line they're already dead. Show me smth more interesting pls 😭😬

Genesis 10:25 KJV

And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.

Peleg 😳 is he the same one that likes sports?? idk if it was football soccer or basketball tho... 🤔🤔

Genesis 11:3 KJV

And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.

Random thought but we should make a Musical/Slime Tutorial about The Babel Tower

Babel Slime Tutorial~~ ^♡^

Genesis 11:6 KJV

And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.

Genesis 11:7-9 KJV - Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.

8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.

9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

He wants us to reach to him. To call. To go with him. To be with him. But as soon as one wants that as well he changes his mind. And then he questions us whyyyyy we're forgetting about him...

ummm what is it called~?

Well, whatever... he's sick. 😶🥴

Needs a psychiatrist.

I still need to finish this but... so far those are my notes... please don't hate me 😅
