atsushi being sassy/salty, imo, is just a little comical way in which his... not quite essence, but inner feelings? express themelves. and i don't think that contradicts him being soft - in fact, i think these qualities enhance each other

atsushi being sweet despite having the ability to be cold, even murderous (i think beast shows it well, the fact he DOES have this instinct inside him - not just by showing how easily he became a killer, but also that bit about the beginning, how beast!akutagawa's solution to starving was eating weeds, while canon!atsushi went straight to thinking how he's gonna have to become a thief), is just proof that he's making that choice consciously

even when he's like, complaining to the audience, kinda, about his money when he takes kyouka on their "date", the fact is he still took her on it, he still made a choice to spend it on her to make sure she has a good day. he can be salty, but despite it he chooses to be kind

even with akutagawa. he's always like ready to attack him on sight, but he DID let him lean on his shoulder in that boat, he did protect his head while breaking through that window, he did show kindness to someone who is supposed to be his enemy

atsushi comes from a harsh background, his instincts lean more towards rudeness and selfishness at best and violence at worst, and despite that he chooses to be kind, to help, to be gentle when needed.

this is another way in which he embodies one of bsd's core messages, i think. while other characters lean more towards "you can always start again, you can always be good now even if you weren't before" (dazai, kyouka, akutagawa, odasaku just off the top of my head), atsushi is a slightly different version of this sentiment - "your past doesn't define you, your actions do".

and the beautiful thing is he still struggles with it. he's still quite violent at times, he has an entire breakdown about it in dead apple, he doesn't kill but he does maim. and yet he keeps going, he keeps making that choice every day, because he knows that's what he needs to do in order to live.

you ever wonder if the Glamrocks's face tracking acts up when they look at Glamrock-Freddy, like they'll look at his face, and the recognition will register as Freddy, but their systems for whatever reason or another think that there is a face overlapped on Freddy's do you think they see two small squares next to him, at his side, roughly child sized, but no one is physically there.... right...?

Tell us about chengqing!

Ship it and I've responded here BUT I wanted to respond to you too!

Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?

Mmm, that's not so much as an unpopular opinion but rather a fic idea but... I think after post-golden core's reveal they can have quite an interesting dynamic. (don't really matter if it's wen ning or maybe wen qing herself to reveal the truth about the core's transfer!)

(this idea has a promise: jiang cheng and wen qing already care about each other)

It's very kind of spoliery, but, I like to imagine jiang cheng really struggling to be intimate with wen qing after the reveal. Not at first maybe, after some time, when the meaning of the transfer hits jiang cheng. Maybe jiang cheng has nightmares about wen qing opening him and forcing wei wuxian’s golden core inside him, to the point that any kind of intimacy becomes painful. Unbearable. I think what really fucks jiang cheng up is that the core's transfer comes to the expense of one of the person jiang cheng loves most. (I am talking about what imo most fucks jiang cheng's mind up, but tbh, being opened without your consent can leave some scars)

So, I imagine a kind of uneasiness taking hold of jiang cheng when he lies down with wen qing, and not knowing what to do with it. Maybe wen qing caresses him, and jiang cheng looking at her hand can't stop himself from imagining her hand deep inside his stomach, and he flinches. Or maybe it's even more subconscious, jiang cheng can't even bring himself to fall asleep next to her because... What if she does something... Something like what? jiang cheng doesn't know, and he feels stupid, but his fucking body can't relax.

And wen qing? Oh, gosh. She's having a bad time too. Imo she has thoughts and complicated feelings about the core's transfer! It's her greatest medical success! But it comes at the expense of someone she comes to care about. wei wuxian really struggled with its loss, and I think she feels guilty. And now even jiang cheng is hurting!

But! She managed the impossible! Not even an immortal could have done it! The sense of accomplishment/pride she must feel! So messy. There's this disconnection between feeling like she wronged people she cares about and her pride in her work. Messy. I love it tbh.

In all of *gestures wildly* I think jiang cheng will get offended if wen qing even hint at her experimenting on someone who isn't him. Like, yeah, he's still fucked up about her last medical surgery, but, why would she prefer someone else? Isn't he a perfect guinea pig? jiang cheng is how he is.

No clue if u’ve seen but ppl are like getting pressed over the way people write miles and all of a sudden it’s become like this big thing in the fandom.

do u think it’s okay to write miles to be a little toxic? or like yandere? and do u think it’s okay to not want to write miles to be a “silly lil guy” as i’ve seen one person say?

like I feel like he doesn’t always have to be silly and goofy especially 42 cause he obviously has a more cold and tough exterior. it’s okay to make him a lil tough around the edges and not some “ohhh i’m so silly skskssksk I like school and i’m a nerd bleehhh 🤪😜😝💓”

I feel like if you only write him like that? he has like no dimension and shit. sorry if this sounds like a rant u can ignore it if it does. i’ve just seen it a lot recently

oh my god

I think we all have our own perceptions of miles morales and how he would act and what he would do, but when it comes to obsessive miles or toxic miles I personally don’t really care.

I think that people should be allowed to write whatever they wanna write. however, I think at this point you should be ready and prepared for unsolicited, destructive criticism.

I have my inbox filled to the brim with anons who have a problem with how I write and what I write, but I expect this. though it gets a little annoying I do expect it.

we need to be able to pin point what is constructive criticism, and what is the opposite. some people do voice their opinion’s on the way writers write miles weather it be yandere or toxic, WHICH IS THEIR RIGHT. like this anon, you are allowed to voice your opinion (to a certain extent) on a topic or fic you’ve read, but it’s up to THE WRITER to see if they want to internalize that opinion/advice.

I personally do not care if you wanna write miles as this toxic macho man bf or just a goofy dude who likes science and makes jokes, that is completely up to you.

As one fan of Romy to another... how are we feeling about episode 5 and that painfully OOC writing on literally everyone except *maybe* Gambit for continuing to be unerringly loyal to Rogue no matter how dirty she does him? (Personally, my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined)

the thing that bothered me most was the implication of magneto grooming rogue during savage land by having her as an 18 yr old during then & the way he was looking at her not to mention the power imbalance. I've never been a rogueneto fan bc I see him as being more of a mentor than well. whatever it is they are. On the topic of Romy though, I'm glad the triangle is technically over by having her confront Magneto & having her talk with Gambit before that. They were never an item yet & they did a good job having that pointed out in this episode even if people are still being insanely misogynistic towards her for no reason. The ending though? It's so painful knowing Gambit didn't get to know she chose him, touch or not. The angst is gonna be intense I just know it. For the most part, I thoroughly enjoyed ep 5 but those are some of the main qualms I have with it! I absolutely adored the voice acting & animation however, they did a phenomenal job :]

there’s a certain flavor of conservative thought where people start to get mad about Accents Existing that i always find truly bizarre

[shame-kink]

one of the most important aspects to be learnt of being a political thinker online, a passive or active viewer of sociopolitical discourses and marginalization, is that just because you find someone to be “wrong” on a subject, have a bad take on a words definition or have shitty political/strategic takes, or just be fucking annoying to you personally, doesn’t make them stop being from the same marginalized group or group-of-groups as yourself. tragically sometimes a comrade-in-arms also just fucking sucks without it being a cishetero bourgeois psyop or a more-particularly-advantaged-yet-still-marginalized-group punching down. like there can be “self-hating” people from demographics actively trying to oppress said demographics but 9 times out of 10 Kaleb from My Discourses isn’t a Dennis Prager rubbing elbows with literal nazis he’s just that dipshit who thinks Judaism as a social category necessitates matrilineal affiliation (even though the people that actively hate Judaism as a social category don’t conceive of it as such). For example I mean.

this should really go without saying but good fucking god my own time in the ‘strangers with a word or two in common trying to kill each other online’ trenches neeeeded

Ja’marr seems more like himself in the interview today and it makes me happy ☺️

agreed! it wasn't post-win happy ja'marr, but it was a focused upbeat ja'marr and it was nice seeing that 🥲

Republicans are the type of people to want a woman dead for aborting a 1 day old fetus that was going to grow up in an abusive foster home and then starve to death after aging out of the system, but will tell you to put down your dog if it stubbed its toe

Consider: Fem!Jamiazu as Kuromi gf x My Melody gf dynamic. No I don’t know anything about sanrio characters, I just know the aesthetics of the two characters and how they are almost opposites. Anyway hopefully you understand this because its so silly to me

considered :3 i think jamil would also keep a diary of 10,000+ instances where azul was mildly irritating.

daenerys antis remind me of elena antis the way they will twist the text to make this teenage girl into an evil monster, like daenerys antis are out here defending LITERAL SLAVERY because they hate daenerys so much and want to see her as a villain

Oh, absolutely. What’s so funny is that GOT already made so many little changes to Daenerys’ character and plot to make her seem “worse”—having less moments of humor, less moments showing her gentle heart and kindness, less moments showing her intelligence, and whatever the fuck her s2 arc and conclusion (in the books she gives a dying Doreah water from Dany’s own skin and holds her as she passes, in the show she’s betrayed by her and leaves her to rot in the vault)— and STILL, her s8 turn was regarded by nearly everyone as Out Of Character, Rushed, and generally just Bullshit. And yet so many fans think her book character making the Same turn will make more sense and be more satisfying….. not to mention GRR already has sooooooo many plots to wrap up in Dany’s arc alone (let alone Allllllll of the other characters’) and somehow he’s supposed to make a sensical and satisfying villainous turn in two books?? I just don’t see it lol

Honestly, IDK how to properly articulate it but. I feel like there’s always this…. subconscious resentment when (particularly teenage) female characters “dare” to be the main characters in their works. It’s why other female characters who are supporting or side characters are given a LOT more leeway (to the point of double standards— example Elena getting torn to shreds for being “friends” with Damon in s1-2 given everything he’s done to her friends and brother (despite actively being a victim of him herself) compared to in later seasons Caroline’s flirtationship and tryst with Klaus who killed a lot of the main cast’s friends and family being cheered on and/or sympathized with; or, Hell, compare to the audience holding no such anger or expectations toward Stefan, who, despite also being a victim of Damon’s abuse, has MUCH more power to defend himself compared to Elena). ESPECIALLY IF THE MAIN FEMALE CHARACTER IS NOT WHITE OR NOT STRAIGHT.
