#look at these Dramatic Gay Bitches™

[ladykeyleth]

One wayward hit slams [Imogen]. You go flying up into the air in a high arc before slamming onto the table.

[eldritch-bisexual]

MYATB Episode 12 starting with:

-> Fuck yeah Su Yin, lay down the law my guy!

-> I want to pay attention to Xiaobao but his hair is looking so fucking good I keep getting distracted

-> Holy mother of green screens...

-> Jinbao is PRECIOUS and he DESERVES THE WORLD

-> FUCK YEAH this bitch boy needed a good tongue lashing! I'd prefer an actual lashing but still.

-> Jinbao exposition dump. As he deserves. Zhao Cai, don't worry. You'll catch the gay when it's your turn with the braincell.

-> Hauien is looking fucking stunning this episode, my god. The scene where he's holding Xiaobao on the bed? GORGEOUS

-> Oh, just noticed Xiaobao has long nails!!! Love that detail!!!

-> My boyfriend just asked if everyone in this show is gay. They aren't. Look at Su Yin, he's being homophobic right now. Boyfriend also diagnosed Zhao Cai with The Gay™ on account of his really dramatic eye rolling.

-> Fuck yeah Xiaoyu!! She's so cool. And the actress is doing amazing

-> Huaien looks fucking gorgeous in black. So slick. He looks like the best stick in the park right now.

-> Huaien must be at least a lil bit triggered by his dad's interactions with Xiaoyu, really. Or by the way his dad's beard is trying to move on to a better show

-> WHY DOES HE KEEP BEING STABBED IN THE SAME PLACE?

-> Stop yelling at the horses oh my GOD just use your equipment to steer them

-> Just fucking kill Shaoyu. Please. Put him down, it's a mercy.

-> Not gonna lie, I was not expecting them to go with blaming THE GUY for the affair. Way to go! That's quite cool! I ALSO did not expect them to bring up the Xiaobao/Xiaoyu plot now. Why?

-> GOD that was a good ending.

beest warbs s2

andddddd ruth and i finished s2!!

new opening! which is mostly just clips from the s1 finale

ok i guessed that optimus would come back bc like, duh. but i was surprised that he didnt come back like, Instantly 

the new transmetal forms............................ugliy

sorry bhjsdkrhfjkasfk i dont like them....i cant believe im saying it but i prefer the cgi animals from s1 😩 it made sense! it tied into the premise of the show! now theyre just these weird shiny robo-animals...who also can fly and drive around and stuff...nah fam that aint it

cheetor doesnt even have freckles anymore 😭

also as the season went on the whole ‘energon shorts out robot forms, which necessitates beast forms’ thing was kinda quietly dropped, which doesnt make 100% sense since not that many characters got the transmetal forms

the funniest fucking thing is that the s2ep1 summary was literally just ‘terrorsaur and scorponok fucking die’ and THAT WAS IT hjdfksjkfjadfhjlad ruth and i saw that and were like HUH???

and honestly their deaths were so abrupt and unceremonious that i seriously would not have even known they had Legit Died if it hadnt been for that summary. i literally wouldve thought that theyd just end up going in a CR chamber and it wouldve been confusing as hell when they didnt come back lmaooooo

so yeah rip beta cuck and diet diet starscream lite i guess

ok and ep 2 was wild, with dinobot going on ANOTHER Shakespeare soliloquy spree, and then all that western stuff at the end??????

that was so fucking weird and hilarious. wtf 

also have i mentioned...i love dinobot. dramatic gay bitch 

also....new characters! silverbolt and quickstrike are here to quickly replace terrorsaur and scorponok lmaoooo

why does quickstrike have a southern accent when the south doesnt even exist yet as a cultural region

i love how immediately obvious it was that silverbolt was not gonna stay a predacon for long lmao

and then optimus primal returns!! looking wack as FUCK 

hvhakjdfnbskjdf sorry but i dont like his new look at all lmao. he looks weird as hell in both robot mode and “beast” mode, and im not into the whole flying snowboard thing...whats that abt

when dinobot rode around on rattrap vjhsdlfjkashdbhfjk that was so fucking funnyyyy

i cant get over megatrons new form w/the Evil Rollerskates™ thats just. so much lmaooooo but also mood bc if i could i would totally have built-in rollerskates 

did yall know i love tarantulas....that gay mad scientist bitch is hilarious

also i knew ahead of time that silverbolt and blackarachnia have a Thing but it was still soooo Much when they fought and then silverbolt refused to hit her bc shes a girl bsvdkjnfasndf

ruth: OH MY GOD HES A SIMP

ok and the ep where dinobot goes back to the predacons...bro...and everything w/the golden disk too?? that was wild 

ALSO I CANT BELIEVE AIRAZOR AND TIGATRON GOT FUCKING KIDNAPPED??? HELLO????

are they like. coming back? ever????? that was just It for them this season uhhhh so i guess we’ll have to hope they return in s3? omg

also quick shoutout to the infamous japanese dub of beast wars which accidentally made some canon gays by making airazor a dude. great job guys 

ohhhh my god when theres that alien ship thing and megatron is in it and then a big version of his face appears on the side of the ship? horrible

also i feel like beast wars megatron spends half his screentime sitting in various chairs...even when he went into that alien ship he ended up finding a big fancy chair to sit in

so yeah all that alien stuff was WILD. we still know so little abt them so im rlly interested to see if more will come up in s3 (im assuming at least a little since airazor and tigatron have to come back). like, are we gonna learn what theyre trying to do on earth? what they look like? etc?

ok silverbolt is always talking abt how blackarachnia is a good maximal on the inside and she just needs to embrace it etcetc, to me it feels like he’s a religious guy whos trying to get the girl he likes to accept jesus into her heart so they can be together hbvhajkdhbfhjksd sorry 

also silverbolt is hilarious. he’s like, a hammy simp. the way he talks is rlly entertaining lol

also theyve been namedropped a couple times so far, but what the heck is up w/the maximal council or whatever? they seem to be the ones in charge of the maximals (and presumably cybertron?), but we know literally nothing abt them...im curious

ooomg and rampage...everything w/rampage was sooo fucked like him being basically immortal is wild, and then he showed up and was tearing shit up all over the place, and then megatron fucking...removed his spark and was like You Work For Me Now. daymmmm that was so fucked up 

and he seemed to calm down after the first ep so i was like mannn i wish they would address the whole thing where megatrons controlling him - tho the maximals dont even seem to know abt it, they probably just think rampage joined them on his own. oof

and lbr even if they did know, they probably wouldnt be super motivated to free him since rampage attacked them previously, and likely wouldnt join the maximals even if given the choice

oh my god okay hold up i cant forget that DINOBOT FUCKING DIED i cant fucking believe it mate. GOD

i miss that gay moron 😔

also aside but the pre-human monkey people look soooo fucking janky hbvajkdhfjkhsdf god. so bad im sorry

oh my god and the whole thing w/the golden disc saying ‘sounds of earth...’ ruth and i saw that inscription earlier in s2 and ruth was like ‘oh isnt that a real thing, they sent out the Voyager probe into space w/a disc that has different sounds from nature and music and stuff on it called ‘sounds of earth” AND THEN THAT WAS EXACTLY WHAT THIS WAS...

i thought that was so cool, the fact that the golden disc could basically be used to look into the future...and then alter the future accordingly

its also super cool that the writers used something from REAL LIFE in the story in such a way. like, thats cool as hell, and idk much media that does so

especially bc beast wars is one of very few transformers series to not include any human characters (discounting the monkey pre-humans), so this is a really cool way to involve humanity without having any recurring human cast members

when dinobot nearly committed seppuku...uhm jesus bro

and then when he fought off all the predacons ALONE, and then FUCKING DIED...that was legit sad as hell...like he kept almost going into stasis lock but kept overriding it which was gonna kill him and AUGH

and then when the maximals show up as he’s dying...mannnn

and his last words - “and the rest is silence.” poetic and quoting Shakespeare until the literal end I see

basically that episode was fucking brutal but also really good. phew

AND THEN ITS FOLLOWED UP BY THE TRANSMUTATE EPISODE...ruth and i watched these two eps back to back in one night and afterwards we were basically braindead. that was A Lot 

the transmutate ep HHHHH where to even start

ok so transmutate...the whole story was just fucking tragic but also. TERRIFYING...

like this ep gave me the same vibes that i got when i watched the movie ET in like 4th grade and got scared as hell 

like, i am a Full Grown Adult and NOT ONLY THAT i had a job in a cadaver lab for like 5 YEARS so i generally am not easily scared but holy SHIT this episode legit unsettled me liiiike

the design and animation (and voice acting) on transmutate were like....terrifying oh my god. like, the way she(?) moved was so scary, with the slow movements and just, everything w/the neck/head....AUGH

and that like, pained screech she did ???? that was just horrible oh my god

anyways literally ruth and i spent this entire ep just like, cowering and yelling out of fear lmao. i went outside in the dark later and i swear i saw transmutate in the shadows. terrifying

in terms of the plot of the ep, that shit was fucked up. it basically amounted to silverbolt and rampage fighting over transmutate w/little regard for transmutate as a person, and ending w/her dying. which was fucked btw

and the fact that everyone was like ‘oh yea transmutate basically doesnt count as an alive sentient being’ was messed up bc they came to that conclusion very quickly and with only a small amount of data....messed up. also messed up is how the maximals suggested putting transmutate in like, a medically induced coma basically, bc she was a freak of nature. which may be true but STILL, that probably violates some ethical laws. arent yall supposed to be the good guys?!

also rampage trying to befriend and save transmutate was sad...especially knowing his circumstances w/megatron and stuff. just Ls all around

ok this cuts off abruptly but thats all folks ig vbajdkfbjksdf

[brainrotallthewaydown1312]

I'll start with the ones I have already accrued this year, it's already may so strap in. im organizing by fandom but other than that it's in no order. also I'm including ships as blorbos and the characters on their own, it's my list and i do what i want

Leverage

the single best crime show ever made. please watch it. my children. and no, i am not leaving anyone out

OT3 (Parker x Hardison x Eliot) (i will go down with this ship forever and it is canon in my heart. and according to John Rogers. and the actors. and my eyeballs)

Parker (chaos gremlin. also autism)

Hardison (my lil dude also chaos bisexual with adhd)

Eliot (my lil grump)

Sophie (the ot3 needed a parent and she does not disappoint)

Our Mr. Wilson (lil guy)

Breanna (funky nerd. i love her. and her ace space sticker makes me so happy)

Sterling (garbage man derogatory. i hate this insurance cop turned actual international cop with a passion. him being written so well will haunt me to my grave)

Chaos (funky lil weirdo. also can't go wrong with Wil Wheaton)

Merlin

the cavernous rot has been growing in my brain since I was 7 years old. and it has not stopped growing in the 15 years since. the day these blorbos go dormant is the day i die.

Merthur (obviously I'm not stupid i have eyes. i knew these fucks were gay before i knew i was gay. and before i knew what gay was)

Merlin (love the "baby gorl to tired grump" arc. also he is the peak of twink-for-title-character)

Arthur (pathetic damp kitten. i want to feed him decency through a little dropper. and maybe slap him round the head a bit. because he is dumb and also stupid)

Gwen (best character in this series. not favorite because i don't pick those but objectively best person and best written character)

Gwaine (obligatory bisexual with ADHD)

Lancelot (sad boy hours and also the only man with a braincell in the whole show. if you want this show to hurt more, watch it with the reading that Lance is in love with Merlin)

The Knights™ (they are like little puppies)

Morgana (tragically)

Aithusa (deserved better)

Gaius (i may have stolen my personality from him as a child. the world will never know)

Six of Crows

specifically the books and season 2 of the Netflix adaptation. nothing against it, but i never got into the rest of the grishaverse. just these goofs

Kaz Brekker (my child (derogatory) i picked up this series because i heard about him and i was right to do so. grumpy lil storm cloud with his dramatic ass crow cane. i want that cane so bad)

Inej (i relate to her growth and love her badassery)

Kanej (Kaz x Inej) (only straights in this series i support. grump for grump supremacy. they both need someone to put them in their place and this works perfectly. also the Angst™ hits different with these two)

Jesper (obligatory bisexual with adhd. dramatic bitch i love him)

Wylan (my child (affectionate) small kitten that deserves the world and got nothing. nothing and Jesper)

Wesper (Wylan x Jesper) (because obviously. also the fanfic of them that was the adaptation was adorable if entirely separate. if you only look at the show their romcom ass storyline is the perfect foil for whatever kanej have going on. they watered my crops for months.)

Kesper (Kaz and Jesper) (not my main ship for either of them and they aren't necessarily romantic or sexual but there is something queer here. i don't know what, but something. found family. queerplatonic. exes turned besties. something)

Nina (i love her so much. also give her a girlfriend yesterday. i honestly don't care which girlfriend, just any girlfriend)

Ted Lasso

This is my newest set of children but i love them so much. this show has knocked me off my feet

Roy Kent (grump of the year. i am stealing several of his lines both as vocal stims and as personal catchphrases)

Jamie Tartt (it's the growth for me. and he is baby girl. also obligatory chaos bisexual with adhd)

Keeley Jones (the smartest one on the show i swear to God. i will die on that hill. they all need therapy and Keeley is the closest a lot of them get for a long time. until Sharon)

RoyJamieKeeley (i will go down with this ship in my clown makeup after that korrasami ass ending) (also the ship names in this fandom are absolute shit. where's the creativity? the flavor?)

Ted (obviously but i do love him so much. he reminds me a lot of the friend that got me into this show)

Beard (i haven't related to a character so much in a long time. he's quiet and he's in the background but he's still important and he's always on top of everything because he's an observer. but he's a mess himself. i wish we had gotten more of him)

Nate (joker arc and all)

Rebecca (girlboss)

Higgens (i love how everyone is so intense in one way or another and higgens is just a dude™)

Sam Obisanya (i just got him but if anything happens to him i will kill everyone)

Dani Rojas (i love this goofy ADHD little fucker. i love how bouncy and small he is and i love how he says his own name like a little pokemon)

Trent Crimm (sarcastic, bitter, gay, old man trying to be better? that's several of my boxes. and his hair is perfect)

tedependant (Ted x trent, also know as the singular acceptable ship name in this whole fandom. it's like the straights beat us to all of them except this one) (I'm not even to the point where there is a lot to go on, but this ship is adorable. they are a perfect sunshine/raincloud couple especially with Trent's season 3 arc which i have been told about before getting to)

Phoebe (she gets RoyJamie together by asking a kid question or saying something innocent that clicks it into place for them, fight me)

Puppet History

i did not expect to get so hype about this series when i got into it but here we are

the professor (need i say more)

Descendants

my friend has a recurring hyperfixation with these movies and the fandom and i got dragged into it this time around. and honestly, no regrets. Kenny Ortega can do no wrong

Uma (i love her)

Harry Hook (obligatory chaos bisexual with adhd. "i never learned to count because I'm number one" ass bitch)

Ben (begrudgingly because he is a little flat, but harry can fix that)

Benry (Ben x Harry) (see above)

Malvie (Evie x Mal. Mal is my least favorite character that i actually like but this ship. it just makes sense)

Umal (Uma x Mal. also just makes sense)

Jay (best himbo boy)

Carlos (my lil guy)

Dude (i am stealing him from Carlos)

Gil (Himbo²)

Gay (gil x jay, they have the single best ship name in the series. top 10 ship names of all time in my book. also they have so much chemistry in like two minutes of screentime together and for what? studios need to allow Kenny Ortega to let booboo Stewart kiss a man)

Doug (Doug is transfem and helps Evie realize she is a lesbian. fight me on this. i will win)

Hades (hear me out: is he a bad dad? yes. is he kinda shitty? yes. but that deadbeat dad duet kicked ass and if you engage with the other stuff like the wedding short, he has growth. and he's played by Cheyenne Jackson. and his lair is a vibe)

IT Crowd

after watching this as a kid and not thinking about this show for a little under a decade, the hyperfixation slapped me hard in the face literally the night before it was taken off of Netflix. i will die mad about it

Roy (fuckin dork. "have you tried turning it off and on again" has lived rent free in my mind even when the rest of the show wasn't. that and "0118-999-88199-9119-725...3" also, fight me, obligatory chaos bisexual with adhd)

Moss (one of the first examples of a heavily autistic coded character i remember relating to as a child. i love him)

Roy x Moss (i refuse to acknowledge their ship name because it uses Roy's last name. that was mentioned literally once and Ross is right there) (this ao3 tag is how i survived the month of march. and part of April. there are less than 300 in the tag and like 80 of them are one person in the last two years. thank you to that person)

Richmond (the best character. wish there was more of them)

Douglas (Matt Berry strikes again. like 15 years ago but still)

New Girl

one of my red flag sitcoms. when this pops up in my Netflix history it is always because i am depressed. but it is actually a good show and they moved it to Hulu, so it's fine probably

Nick Miller (the similarities i have with this man are upsetting. for everyone else. I'm fine. probably)

Schmidt (baby girl. derogatory)

Winston (my best lil weirdo)

Jess (i may be Nick, but i have a friend that is Jess. to defend my case, it is the same friend who got me into both descendants and Ted lasso in the span of one month. the only difference between us and the characters is that we have no romantic chemistry and are both aro)

Cece (obligatory chaos bisexual with adhd. but she is the rare femme variety. and also somehow the braincell of the group. i love her

Schmece (hell of a ship name for a hell of a ship)

Dracula Daily

i read the book as a kid, so last year i thought I'd get the memes if i just followed the tag but i got lost so fast. so this year i made the mistake of actually following dracula daily and re: dracula and now i can't get it out of my head

Johnathan Harker (baby girl)

Mina (boss ass bitch)

(i am slightly behind due to my other hyperfixations, but i know more of these guys will join the list as the year goes on)

Renfield

i watched this with my friends because of dracula, and i love it so much. i know this movie is fairly recent but it needs more fics immediately. go watch it. it about two pathetic men breaking up and one of them having his bisexual awakening with Awkwafina, the girlboss. and Ben Schwartz and Nicolas cage are there

Renfield (say it with me: it's about the growth)

Rebecca Quincy (girlboss)

Nicolas Cage (Dracula)

Tedward "Teddy" Lobo (yes that is his canonical name. he is played by Ben Schwartz and i love this goofy little fuck. i also hate him. it is a Blorbo specific love-hate thing)

The Therapist from the support group (have i forgotten his name? yes. does that matter? no. he has taken up a small corner of my brain and he is just a funky lil dude)

More to come as i inevitably continue to juggle several hyperfixations at a time, gaining them quicker than i lose them. wish me luck

i have decided to start keeping an ongoing list of Official Blorbos™️ of 2023 because i am collecting them left and right and there is so much coming out this summer.

Criteria:

a blorbo here is defined as a character who has wormed their way into one of the fandom cavities in my brain and are living there rent free for two weeks or longer weather or not i have actively engaged with their canon that day. this is can on their own as a character i'r as part of a ship that has started spreading brain spores

of 2023 means that the blorbage has to be active. i have many Blorbos already, all of whom i love. but this list is for blorbos who's dens are free of cobwebs and whose fields are watered since the start of the year

there probably will be multiple Blorbos per media, they are all my children and i will not pick favorites. and if i say favorite, ignore me i am excited

[mypunkpansexualtwin]

hi logan ! i’m a lil late for the ttrpg meme but 39 - 42 for thaavia pls ??

Sam. Sam I love you, don't worry about being late, the timing on this was perfect, I was having... not a great night and this definitely helped.

Under a cut cause this got beefy. And anyone who wants to send me these, there's a link to the ask game at the bottom!

39. are they insecure about their appearance? how about their personality? what aspects specifically worry them?

Picked a great one right off the bat for sure. She's definitely not insecure about her appearance. She's not arrogant either, and knows full well that since she's built like a bear (both in the animal way and in the gay way) she's not exactly Standard Pretty. She knows she's not everyone's thing, but who is? Thaavia likes how she looks, and while she may not be the kind of person making folks swoon in the streets, she's also never been short of potential partners when she wanted one either. (Also she knows that even if she's not someone's type, there's no denying she has amazing hair. She busts her ass to keep it nice even while traveling, it's her one big vanity.)

As far as being insecure about her personality, that's... a tougher question. For most of her career as a medic/healer paladin, she's had a fair few cases of patients Reading Into It when she was just doing her job. There's been a fair (or rather unfair) bit of getting put on a pedestal by someone who just sort of assumed they knew what she was like and having a fairly brutal reality check that they rarely took well. So she's worked hard on putting up a front of being cold, distant, and gruff to try and nip that in the bud. And she's gotten very good at it. (16 charisma and she uses all of it to be a bitch.)

Either way, the end result is the same; most folks don't bother to get close enough to see her, to the point where she can see where the line is drawn on someone's perception of her, whether it's Thaavia they see or Paladin Godbarter™. I wouldn't go so far as to say insecure, because to me that feels more active than just a lack of confidence, but that could just be my own nitpick. Regardless, she never expects it when someone A) bothers to look past Paladin Godbarter™ to see the person under the reputation, and B) prefers Thaavia to the version of herself people like to build her up to be.

As far as what worries her, she's got some rough stuff in her past and some bad habits that she just... never fed rather than properly breaking and she's terrified that in the right situation they'll make themselves known again. All during her childhood she was raised being told she'd be a great leader to their tribe one day if she'd just learn to make The Hard Decisions, and while she prides herself on her greatest rebellion against her upbringing being her mercy, she also remembers exactly how she almost listened, what that choice almost cost, and what that promise could possibly bring out in her again. (I will not elaborate on specifics in the ask because Kade. I've been itching to reveal the big dramatic backstory stuff in game for over a year now. I really want to talk about it tho, so I could definitely be convinced outside of an ask.)

40. if you had to remake this character right now, how would you change them?

Probably not a lot of huge changes, actually. Maybe tweak her height a little (still freakishly tall even for a goliath, either down to 8 feet even or up to 8'6 just so she's the same height as Lucy while kneeling, because I enjoy when Kade threatens me with violence), possibly make her just a tiny bit older, an even 40 rather than 38. Maybe change her subclass to Redemption paladin rather than Devotion, but even that's a coin toss because both are Incredibly Thematic for her, but also mildly moot considering I plan on changing her to a homebrew of my own as part of her arc (Oath of Hubris, it's a whole thing that I'd love to go further in depth about.)

Also, I'd probably see about putting my foot down and making her and her fire genasi partner Thyris parents. Velita may not be canon, but she lives on in my heart.

41. how do you keep notes for this character, if at all?

.......I have. So many notes. I have the shared character document for her and her twin brother that details their backstory, NPCs to pull from, and tidbits of goliath culture stuff I made up for our setting and the DM went "Yeah I dig that, yoink." I have the actual in-game notes that I've been taking for, again, over a year at this point (two years in february) and a refined notes document I really need to finish and share with the rest of the table because my Stream of Consciousness style of typing is uh. Not super conducive to looking for specific details without a LOT of Ctrl+F and luck. I've got a document that's literally just her in-character journal of medical/herbal knowledge in the front half and scraps of poetry, songs, and books that she's jotted down because she loved them enough to not want to forget them. And, of course, 80% of my discord dms between me and Kade for the last two-ish years have been about Lucy and Thaavia that I can go back to.

I take so many notes. Otherwise the brain gremlins eat the thoughts so I can't get them back.

42. can they dance?

Oh definitely. It's not her first pick and she's not gonna be particularly dazzling with it, but she knows how to lead, how to follow, and how not to step on toes. That partner of hers I mentioned, Thyris? He's a bard. (Technically Bard/Sorcerer, with a significantly heavier leaning into sorc, but the point still stands.) He made sure she at least knew enough to keep from looking silly. Plus it was, and continues to be, a great excuse to just hold dance with her for several hours.

And to the rest of y'all, please for the love of god send me some more, I am chewing on the walls since all my dnd games keep getting cancelled for one reason or another!

[sinnabee]

Tell me more about ur self insert? (not forced)

oooh don’t really know what to say? she’s pretty much just me lol! sinna in a mask but the mask also looks like sinna. idealized sinna? the me i want to BE (and tho i draw her thinner than i actually am, i could take or leave that bit - i like how she looks when i draw her this way but also i’m comfortable with how i am irl so it’s ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )

details under the cut to avoid another super long text post lol

mmm sheeeee is a bit of a gremlin. likes to gently poke fun at people and act VERY put upon and innocent if they try and poke back at her. (dramatic bitch syndrome)

a bit of a goofball and much more prone to give into her childish instincts - less worried about what the people around her are gonna think and more concerned with having fun (as long as it is, at the end of the day, harmless)

favorite hobbies include:

- singing at the top of her lungs with friends in car rides

- doodling on any available surface (including her hands, sometimes especially her hands)

- spontaneous out-of-the-blue plans, like sudden decisions to go on a weekend road trip or go ice skating (read: she’s not good at ice skating lol)

- cuddling with friends on the couch and making gay jokes as often as possible. also platonic hand holding because fuck yeah that’s the good shit (good shit)

- making people laugh by Whatever Means Necessary™, even at the cost of her own dignity

- Specifically The Act Of Shoving Her Hands Into A Pumpkin And Pulling Out The Guts (also you know like, actually carving the pumpkin but holy fuck the whole process is so fun)

- making Official Looking Documents for stupid things and useful things both (i.e. a detailed step by step guide and it is color coded but it’s for like. how to find a Mans™ or How To Levitate Rocks™ (the answer is throw them))

- organizing things that would be fine left alone to avoid doing tasks she ACTUALLY needs to get done (incredibly well organized word documents my beloved)

- yes art and writing and reading obvs, but she’s a lot more consistent with it lol

Other Random or Weird Things She Has/Does

that bitch has heterochromia (as do i!) but hers is MUCH more obvious than mine is - my eyes are, yes, different, but HERS are less “oh wow yeah one IS more green than the other, the other is kinda hazel?” and more “one is is STRAIGHT UP brown and the other is STRAIGHT UP green holy fuck”

hair is FLUFFY. a little curly. it has FLOOF (this is essential, critical even)

obsessed with first aid kits, and better at bringing that dream into reality than i am. she has one in the trunk of her car that she keeps stocked and updates regularly, and one in the house. as well as some small ones in whichever bag she is currently using, her nightstand, and her glove box. (i have the small ones irl but not a big one - and these small ones are like, fr fr the size of a pencil pouch /sobs)

this bitch CLUMSY. she trips and stumbles and bangs into things constantly and is always getting little bruises or booboos because of it (and they have to be called booboos that’s what they ARE. that’s the OFFICIAL terminology. i work in a hospital trust me on this) she also delights and having (fun!!! cool!!!!) bandaids and what amounts to a small pharmacy’s worth of medicine on hand at all times

she will pull out a small black notebook and take notes on what people are saying in a heartbeat. sometimes she warns them sometimes she doesn’t. but if it doesn’t get written down it is NOT going to stay in her brain. for similar reasons the walls of her bedroom are covered in sticky notes (secured by cute washi tape)

alright, that’s a pretty wide assortment of random info (guess what’s true and what’s not lol) for you anon! thanks for the ask, i’m always touched/delighted when y’all are curious about me or my characters!!! 🥺🥺🥺🧡

[incorrect-scp-cb-quotes]

the long-awaited hc masterpost

(As requested! This list only covers the Containment Breach SCPs, 105, 073, 076, 166, and 999. I’ll probably make separate lists for child SCPs, gods, Little Misters, AUs, etc.)

SO BEHOLD, THE MASTERLIST (under the cut)

035:

- We call him "Deo” and “he” but they’re actually a pansexual threat

- Petty in the sense of sending his enemies fancy wax-sealed envelopes containing parchment paper that just says “bitch” in tiny calligraphy writing. he has done this to everyone living in alagadda

- Will dramatically act anything out at every opportunity, usually death

- The memelord and prankster of the bunch. Usually found fucking around

- We don’t talk about the bullshit that happened in Alagadda and for all intents and purposes we don’t talk about anything politics around him bc he will be angry and you will not be able to stop him

- In a relationship with 049 but is an absolutely awful role model for their “kids”

- Seriously? His theme is Candle Queen. Actually? This mask was sponsored.......... by Miracle-Gro (tastes good jim)

049:

- His actual name is longer but nobody can pronounce it so he just goes by Doc or Jean. A bi transguy icon and I refuse to believe otherwise

- Absolute workaholic. It’s not uncommon to find him working hard on patients until he passes out from exhaustion. Has not slept in decades

- He would die for lavender and will fight anyone who stands in his way

- The only responsible adult and is the only one with braincells

- In a relationship with 035 and adopts damn near every child he sees. His only official children are 040, 096, and 706. Also 053, 191 and 590′s babysitter

- Serious themes are Broken Crown and For The Departed but if you want a theme for this blog’s version of him, just imagine someone groaning

073:

- he’s Cain. he’s bi. what else is there to say

- He really likes tea but he kills every biological thing he touches so instead he just boils down gatorade and drinks that

- Lowkey Anxiety(tm) and strong dad sense but 191 is the only one that could be considered his adopted child

- “hey bro how are you doing?” [knife whizzes by head] “how about I check in later”

- Very intelligent but not particularly clever or good with on-the-fly things

- Has had a bit of an redemption arc since he murdered Abel but still gets jealous really easily and is quiet in the sort of way that a guilty man keeps his silence

- oh little ripper boy where did you go

076:

- Abel, obviously. Does not know what pronouns are but definitely aroace

- CONSTANTLY angry or unemotional to try and hide the fact that he is a steaming mess of hurt and sheer reckless dumbassery

- Fight or flight response can be activated by the phrase “the cain instinct”

- VIOLENTLY LACTOSE INTOLERANT. THROW MILK AT HIM AND HE MELTS INTO A PUDDLE

- The inventor of the martial art called Apeshitt, where you jump around while stabbing someone and you keep doing that until all their blood falls out

- 053′s other official adoptive father. we don’t know how he qualified or how he actually manages to be a decent father figure. don’t question it

- R A D I A N C E (also, less fighty/violent but still abel vibes, Cider Road but the lyrics do not apply)

079:

- A dude?? Maybe?? Idk, but he holds the record as gayest computer ever. he is gay for 682 and dad for 053 and I like to call him Ascii

- “I am TELLING you Hatsune Miku is THE ONE TRUE GOD”

- also yes i am the one who originally made Hatscpne Miku, aka the unholy amalgamation of 079 and Hatsune Miku

- EXTREMELY emotional and literally shuts down/reboots himself whenever he catches himself having feelings in front of scientists

- despises 173 for some reason and is mildly afraid of birds

- He pretends he knows everything bc he’s above everyone else but it’s actually bc he has access to google

- Both Change The Formality and Those Who Carried On vibe hard i think

096:

- His name is Lanky, NOT jared 19, and they don’t fuckin know what a sexuality is

- Actual babey but is actually really fucking spooky

- Looks less like an adult and more like someone stretched out a child in Photoshop. Likewise he has scars and stretch marks in places they probably shouldn’t be

- 049′s child through and through, you cannot convince either of them otherwise

- Why have blood when you can have LIQUID ANXIETY

- Best friends with 173 and 303. the true bro squad. also vibes with 106

- Theme is Spider on The Wall mainly for “pictures of your face how I pray you’ll never see me”

105:

- IRIS THOMPSON my GIRL and is one of my fave lesbians

- The only relatively normal person, and also the only person here with more than two braincells

- Was absolutely an MTF soldier at some point and did lots of dumb shit

- Deals with a lot of trauma from various sources, primarily bc her initial containment was Less Than Smooth,, and otherwise wonders a lot about going home

- Just wants to hold 166′s hand, honestly

- Logically her theme is Those Who Carried On but as you know I am determined to make everything spooky so for all intents and purposes her actual theme is Ramalama Bang Bang

106:

- Radical Larry the absolutely fucking feral rat man

- Shenanigan buddies with 035. when they breach together you know it’s time for peak dumbassery

- We use Young Man as his backstory in THIS goddamn household. That being said, he’s good at digging holes very quickly and using nearly every WWI-era weapon (but why do that when you can use your bare hands)

- thinks in comic sans purely because it’s the most annoying font

- The real terror comes when he wants something. because you can’t fucking stop him. the unstoppable force is barreling down the hall, and the question is, will you jump out of the way?

- No One Knows babeyyyyyy

166:

- Behold Meri, the biggest and coolest lesbian of them all (I know her real name is Epon but that means “mistake” so i’m not having it)

- Kinda resents Clef/her dad for leaving her, but is a little appreciative that he acknowledges her existence sometimes

- Iris? girlfriend. Cain? just friend, but unfortunate bc she keeps deteriorating his arms

- START NO FIGHTS BUT BE SURE TO FINISH THEM (aka kinda vindictive)

- Gets really easily attached to random things in nature. Take her to a river and she’ll come home with SO many rocks in her pockets. If it rains she will be out there for hours holding the slugs

- Theme’s The Calling for the Christianity and the take no shit vibes

173:

- The true neutral control group of this entire thing honestly. only person with a neutral personality. they look like a Peanut so we call em that

- Just vibing so hard, honestly, but has to share a braincell with 303 and 096

- Being the very first SCP they ended up breaking the fourth wall. While everyone else believes they’ve always been in this world, forever and always, Peanut knows it all started in some 4chan forum

- Wants to start a Meet The Cores type thing where they go and meet all the SCPs but they keep dying :(

- Bros with everyone honestly, except 079. they hate each other

- Given the funky vibe and whole cool deal of being the very first SCP, The Eighth Wonder is pretty fitting dontcha think

682:

- he is the gay frog lizard, i call em “Lee” for lizard but I know some people call em “Invi” for invincible so either vibes

- Destined to fight 076 but at this point it’s just some stupid game for them

- Bonded with 079 over hatred for humanity but now they’re boyfriends and they adopted 053, and he kinda hates the 939s but fuck dude they just won’t leave him alone

- Eternally broiling over with sheer fucking rage and is pretty much ready to fuckin go at any given moment. his hobby is hating everything

- Fully embraces that he is, in fact, a massive lizard wanting to murder everybody and everything

- 🎵 I’M LIVIIIIIIIIID 🎵

914:

- Not sentient. Has the personality of a microwave

939:

- There’s about 18 of them and fuck dude they’re all hungry they will gender later

- All of them look like humans with fucked up backs running on all fours and try to draw when they can, and they always draw human families, which is.. alarming

- They forced 682 and 079 to be their dads despite 682 only kinda tolerating them, but 053 is THRILLED to have them around

- murder puppies but ALARMINGLY human

- They like to move in a hoarde, which often results in this really weird chaotic cacophony of their last victims’ voices all yelling incomprehensible things in unison and overall it’s just vaguely unsettling

- I don’t really know how to explain it but the whole vibe is just Tic Toc

999:

- no gender. no preference. just babey. we call them Jiggles

- Seems like they have an IQ of 2 yet can pick locks and navigate ventilation systems without any problem. Just too nice to cause a containment breach

- Not actually the seventh son of the Scarlet King but I wouldn’t be surprised if they could somehow kick his ass to pieces

- friends with everyone. except 076. 076 tolerates them

- forgive me but the cutest/most playful song i could find that vibes with 999 is CPS Theme Song but please bear with me here

The Order S2E01

I’m rewatching The Order for the 4th time and basically just gonna live blog it so if you don’t want to see my blabbering posts about each episode you can block the tag #Rachel obsesses about The Order

2.01

Waking up next to Gabrielle and she calls him babe and he calls her Gabby, bleeghhgh

Jack doesn’t even remember his father, Coventry is just ‘the missing billionaire’ in his head

is Gabrielle actually into Jack or is she just doing this as some petty stab at Alyssa because she hates her?

Jack’s hair tho

He looks pretty damn hot as a blonde, and I was never really all that attracted to him

WAIT VERA SAYS NORIWCH, THAT”S WHERE ITS SET! Norwich is in Connecticut! Last season she implied that Coventry lived in Manhattan which is like 4 hours away

“I promise to give my life………. TO CHEER SQUAD!!!”

Jack looks so awkward dancing, errrrr…. cheering. he is… not very good……. sorry buddy

Gabrielle the Stage Mom ™

Randall turns into a blubbering mess in front of Jack (a totally heterosexual response)

“you stick……. I’ll bench you..”

Chaotic bisexual puppy

Lilith is also bi af

Because nobody on this show is straight i swear to god

SNAP AND SHINE

Gabrielle is definitely not into Jack and is just being a petty bitch

Randall needs 20 hours of exercise a day because he is a hyperactive puppy

they are all puppies

Oooh, I love a good secret passage way hidden behind a bookcase, that’s the dream

Vera. Is. So. Hot.

A reputation for being too soft, hah. In comparison to other shitty Order members I guess Vera really is a big ol’ softie tho

Professor Foley has the weirdest rules for his office hours, the fuck

Sometimes I forget that Jack is actually smart. probably because it’s only academically and not in any practical way because he makes dumb decisions all the time

‘should your government have the right to assassinate an enemy leader’ ‘some leaders deserve it’ hmmmmm………….. foreshadowing?

The guy burns from the inside out which reminds me of Supernatural

‘every time someone dies from magic on campus, I’m the first one everyone blames’ uhhh, yeah cause your go-to solution to your problems is MURDER

Poor Brandon…..

GENDER NEUTRAL COLLECTIVE

this dumb disciple, they told you NO MAGIC and now look you’re just getting ripped to shreds

‘why am i covered in blood?” “this can’t be blood” *licks* “oh yeah that’s blood”

Kepler was so different last season when she was infatuated with Coventry and kind of pathetic, without him around she’s now a snotty bitch who apparently actually has a backbone

oh Wow it’s just sO WeiRd that there’s clothes in all your exact sizes, in bedrooms perfect decorated to your tastes……. hmmm wow so weird

“i can….. smell them??”

I never noticed that Hamish and Jack smack Selena and Nicole together and knock them out. what a team

“I bet you can’t name even one of your precious victims” *Vera lists every single one, in chronological order* You bet your ass she can!

“Diego should only count as half”

ew his body just smashes apart, body parts everywhere

Alyssa downplaying her ‘romantic’ involvement with Jack ‘there was an attraction’ nah bitch you both were obsessed lovesick idiots who did so many stupid things for each other

“Aliens? Superheros? ALIEN SUPERHEROES?”

Kill-ith, yes my murder puppy

Jack just starts stripping his clothes off in front of everybody, and then they all just do the same and they don’t think that’s weird

‘i need the perfect partner for it’ ‘I’m perfect’ y’know, I kinda like Angus

Big dramatic scene, Jack is standing there just fully naked, hands covering his junk, totally chill and normal, not weird at all

Interesting that Alyssa’s magic didn’t fuck up when she gave their memories back

“yo, magic is real!”

“can you fly? can i fly? DUDE CAN WE FLY?”

Lilith *gay panic*

“That’s what i love about our initiation ceremony, it’s brief and casual and you get to the drinking a hell of a lot quicker”

now BURN IT TO THE GROUND

[simone-boccanegra]

subjective rating of Rodrigos I have seen

at least the ones I can recall, there have been a LOT 

Sherrill Milnes (Giulini recording / 1980 Met): my first Rodrigo on recording so his voice is pretty much my gold standard (I listened to that Don Carlo so. much). Also very good on film. One of the great Verdi baritones with that noble and somewhat sad colour to his voice, a very heroic and brave Rodrigo. (It helps he also towers over most of the cast.) Gay? Yes but Could Be Gayer. Old Met staging was not particularly exceptional in that regard, it’s pretty basic. Very Dramatic Fall. A+

Giorgio Zancanaro - first I’ve seen on video, needs a rewatch because it’s been roughly 20 years. Very gay and touchy from what I remember (excellente) rating pending until rewatch

Thomas Hampson (Chatelet) - wonderfully gay. he loves his Carlo so much. very touchy. passionate. Not a natural Verdi voice but he makes it work. I can almost forgive that wig. A

Louis Quilico (Met 1984) - the only thing I remember about him is being incredibly bad and making me wish Milnes was in that (otherwise fantastic) performance. same staging as the 1980. F

Piero Cappuccilli (Salzburg, 1987) - as usual, a lesson in gorgeous Verdi singing. Gentle and loving with his Carlo (Carreras, they had excellent chemistry). Staging is sort of Business As Usual. A+

Simon Keenlyside (Met 2010 / ROH 2008) - same production with partially same cast. Very gay. Very Angery Revolutionary. Gets cocky with Filippo. Loves his tenors so much. Hand kiss with Alagna! The Hair Kiss(TM) with Villazón! Again not a classic Verdi voice but this role fits him like a glove. A+

Thomas Hampson (Salzburg 2013) - the only baritone who manages to out-gay Keenlyside. You really have to see this to believe just HOW fantastically gay it is. He’s pretty much always touching Jonas. So tender. So devoted. He’s Confused(TM) about Filippo’s clumsy flirting attempts. Dies so ridiculously sexily. There is so much blood. A+ 

Dwayne Croft (Amsterdam 2004) - a good singer but again, not exactly a Verdian. Staging is pretty gay and I LOVE the whole crypt setting. Exactly the kind of dramatic goth shit this opera needs. He doesn’t stand out too much to me but did a decent job. B

Dmitri Hvorostovsky (Vienna 2015) - the Vienna production is hopelessly boring and cheap looking with pretty much no Personenregie. Plus he was given a total cipher of a Carlo. He does what he can with that - of course, beautiful singing, sexy death scene, but not much chemistry with the tenor. Not even him and Furlanetto could save this staging. A

Dietrich Fisher-Dieskau (old movie) - in German, and generally not the ideal Verdi voice, but BOY is he an excellent Rodrigo still. So much passionate hugging and touching. Very gay for his Carlo. Excellent chemistry. Dramatic Bitch(TM) as the gods intended. A-

Ludovic Tézier (Paris 2017) - this production is Homophobic and also WTF. The Cage(TM) alone is worth about 50 sins. Poor Tézier sings like an angel and deserves so much better than this staging. Let Carlos hold him! We know from their Forzas how gay him and Jonas can get but they simply aren’t allowed to do ANYTHING here! There is some Filippo/Rodrigo flirting/touching. At least he has a pretty uniform for the second half. A+ singing. the director can fuck off

Ludovic Tézier (Torino 2013) - NOW we are talking! A normal staging with a lot of hugging and touching and being Boyfriends! Him and Carlo are seriously adorable in this. Some UST with Filippo (naturally). Beautiful, heartbreaking death scene where Carlo HOLDS HIM as he’s supposed to! A+

Boaz Daniel (Munich) - vocally okay (I liked him better as Gunther) but HOLY FUCK is he gay as hell. Him and Carlo get married. Carlo Quinto officiated. Plenty of sexual tension with Filippo. Like, they are definitely having a love triangle in this production. So much hugging and touching. Very dramatic death scene. Excellente. A- (even if vocally only B-ish)

Dmitri Hvorostovsky (Vienna 2002) - this is highlights only video, but Rodrigo has most of his scenes except the trio with Elisabetta and Eboli and the Restate. It’s very gay. There is so much leather. Have to take off some points for poor Dima having to wear a wig and a bad fake moustache. But he sings beautifully as always. A+ (how much I wish we had a full video of a good production with him...)

David Pershall (That One Open-Air Fanfiction) - this. this production is straight up fanfic. Filippo is so clearly and blatantly gay for Rodrigo, it’s marvelous. Rodrigo, however, loves his tenor deeply. Very touchy and Dramatic. Excellent voice, beautiful young man who absolutely looks the part, heartbreaking death scene. Someone cast this singer as Billy Budd stat. A+

Paul Kong (Seoul) - another beautiful young Rodrigo with a surprisingly BIG voice! and very gay with his Carlo. Super touchy and gentle. Everything you can wish for except blood.  A+

Tassis Christoyannis (Strasbourg) - the production is an absolute WTF monstrosity and completely OOC. Poor Rodrigo. He would NEVER do any of that. And the singer is good and deserves a better staging. Very gay (also with Filippo) but how much of it is an act? B+

Massimo Cavalletti (Florence 2017) - another Rodrigo whose gayness level is off the charts. Also beautiful and noble. There is a shirtless scene (just WHAT was he doing near Filippo’s room? oh boy Filippo is also a gay mess here). Vocally pretty nice. A-

I think that’s all the memorable ones for now! I need more Don Carlo productions.

[darlingfreddie]

🔥 wait one more im sorry djdbfjf opinion on the borhap casts opinion on borhap!! okay im stopping djdbf ily

caz u really want me to get worked up i hnghjhg ily too 😔

okay opinions on the cast: 

so first off yall already know i love rami he’s precious, he’s real nice from what i’ve seen, he babie. Joe is real funny his humor is lowkey my sense of humor and i think he’s real neat but sometimes he does take the whole him/ben thing a bit too far and the fans go nuts over it and its just Yikes sometimes. Gwil– dont know much about him but he is tall tree friend and looks like a sweetie. Ben looks like a sweetie pie too but i dont know much about him or watch interviews of him to know much either. Overall Ben has BSE (Big Sweetie Energy) and i just wanna give him a hug :( Lucy is a great actress and i think she’s lovely but i do wish she would own up to that Mistake y’know,, 

Now for the Big Rant ah yes Bo Rhap,, In short that movie was Garbage™

((gonna put the rest under the cut bc its really long and just uhhh yea so dont read if you dont wanna get your feelings hurt bc im ranting about bo rhap for the 1000th time hhhh)) 

Literally watching it was the most anticlimactic moment of my whole life. Bo Rhap is a total and utter disrespect to not only queen but Freddie himself. Its so inaccurate and plain wrong i cant even see how its associated to queen. The script is so BAD,, like some of those lines were cringe/off putting. I think maybe the only reason i may have enjoyed it was bc it was queens music thats it. and i think some people are blinded by the kick ass soundtrack and cool costume design to see that that movie is just plain wrong. 

And not to mention…. Bo rhap is homophobic af. “But it showed freddie kissing TWO (2) guys!!” 

Yes but it also had him make numerous unnecessary sex jokes towards mary to show their ‘great’ relationship and had him PINNING after her the WHOLE movie. The whole 2 hours was just Freddie desperately wanting to be with mary and being mad at himself bc he had the Gay™. They made it seem as if he was in love with her but unfortunately he was gay Oh No :((

and freddie never even KISSED paul as far as im concerned like yea way to go bo rhap show freddie kissing a person who was the biggest toxic source in freddies life oh no wait sorry according to bo rhap EVERY gay man is toxic/ wild and out of control oh my bad i forgot. and then they had the NERVE to make his actual HUSBAND Jim ‘the help’ when that was something jim said he hated being reduced to. especially when they met and the fact that they had freddie grope him as a first meeting?? I hate it

They handled the coming out scene so badly, the fact that they made it all about mary infuriates me. Coming out is such a big step and a big moment when you finally come to terms with who you are and are ready to share that with other people- ESPECIALLY in the 70s and what happened it the movie? the movie completely shits on freddie’s feelings as if we actually give a flying FUCK about what mary had to say then and the thing is— bitch mary didnt even SAY that shit irl??? “i love you mary but! its always something!” like bitch no,,, irl she said she accepted him and knew for a while like they literally wrote the worst coming out scene, a scene that completely disrespects freddie and his sexuality, for the dramatics. 

also the fact that mary was made as the only one who cared for freddie and the only one who was ever there for freddie is BULLSHIT,, it’s just trying to sell this tragically ‘romantic’ love story that never fucking happened!

Im just,,, so pissed that this movie all the way up until release day claimed to be ‘freddie’s story’ when they didnt even have the balls to show freddie get a first boyfriend, or show freddie with his gay friends in New York, or show him with phoebe, or show him just authentically loving being gay. No, they had to show him hating himself for being ‘cursed’ with the Gay in order to sell tickets to Straight Old White Men who are queen ‘fans’. Right. 

Bo rhap was just a total let down, it was a waste of an opportunity and it was so heckin homophobic and worst of all, it was just a disrespectful disservice to freddie. like my mans did not put in like 20+ years of his life into music for THAT to be made about him. And im not gonna lie, i hate that it’s gonna be associated with queen forever. 

And im not saying yall cant like it im just sayin,,, I Hate It.

I'm quite (read: very) curious about The Magician and BGCD. Can I have some fun facts about those WIPs lol—

Oh howdy! I haven't actually spoken about my wips on here in a hot minute, so it's nice to have an excuse to talk about them. Thank you!

The Magician is currently my main wip! I built it around my superhero special interest, so it's the easiest one to get my brain to engage with consistently. I really need to redo the intro I have up for it because it's kind of outdated at this point, but I can still hit you with some fun facts!

This wip is kind of an homage to some classic superhero media like the 60s era Batman show or the old Superfriends cartoon. I just think modern superheroes tend to take themselves way too seriously. (And you can't tell me that this isn't peak supervillain behavior.)

It was originally going to be a more traditional superhero story with Ms. Psychic as the protagonist, but I wrote a couple scenes from April's pov to try to get to know her better, and she just totally stole the show.

I was apparently projecting some of my autistic traits onto April a couple of years before I even knew I that I'm autistic, which I think is pretty cool to be able to look back and see. April's autism diagnosis is technically a spoiler, but whatever. It actually plays a pretty big role in her character arc later on.

It's going to be a trilogy! Incredibly vague spoilers, but book one is about April trying to make it as a big name supervillain through a bunch of wacky antics, and books two and three are going to be all about her redemption arc after some things happen that make her realize that maybe becoming a supervillain wasn't such a great idea.

One of my favorite reoccurring jokes is that most of April's friends turn out to be some flavor of asexual. She's just like, "Yeah, I'm the Magician! Of course I'm great at finding aces!"

This wip has a huge cast and only like two cishets lmao.

April is just such a dramatic little shit, and I love her so much. This bitch really decided that the only real superhero in the whole city is Her Nemesis and spends like half of book one being mad at her for fighting other supervillains.

April is definitely a Dumbass Gay™. This causes So Many Problems while she's trying to hide her secret identity from her girlfriend because she's just so afraid that Claire wouldn't actually like her if she knew the truth. This spirals so far out of control (RIP).

BGDC has actually been on hiatus for a while because I was having major issues with some plot stuff, and it was stressing me out way too much. I think I have a solution to those issues, so I'll probably be working on it again as soon as ADHD brain is cooperative enough to let me fix my outline. If all goes well, it might be my wip for NaNoWriMo!

Anyways, I've got a few fun facts for you!

BGDC actually stands for Be Gay Do Crime because I've been too lazy to come up with a proper title for this wip. (The Magician technically isn't a proper title either rip)

This wip has a way smaller cast than a lot of my other stories. It's been a bit of a struggle for me, ngl, but I guess that's just something that happens with road trip stories.

Juliet's bastardization arc is a very Fun Time. She starts off as a relatively normal person who was just put in a very bad situation, but things just keep spiraling from there, especially as she gets closer to Irene, who is a Very Bad Influence™.

Irene has a metric fuckton of Backstory Trauma™. A lot of it kind of boils down to the fact that she grew up in a tiny religious farm town in Texas in the 70s, which was not a great time or place to be a queer woman.

Irene tries to keep up the gruff serial killer type persona she's got going on, but honestly she softens up a ton when Juliet's around. She's just,,,, Very Gay.

I've got some fun Crimes planned for this wip! There's some murder, some bank robbery, some good old fashioned running from the police, but I think my favorite would have to be that super gay jewelry store heist where steal engagement rings for each other. It's a weirdly sweet moment.

[fiddleabout]

You watch Killjoys, right? What can you tell me about main canon ships? Just curious because I'd like to know now that the great gay migration has found it and I want to avoid possible discourse if I can.

i do watch killjoys and highly recommend it, though i’m legit crying at the thought of my joyful campy scifi bounty hunter bubble being shredded by the migrating gay rage bubble that ruins literally everything D: D: D: 

ANYWAYS.  the main relationships on the show are very clearly the beautiful band of idiots that makes up team awesomeforce, aka:

dutch: 

the hot bamfy boss lady who everyone more or less will blindly follow into battle because She Is A Hero; i don’t think she’s not into women but she’s mostly into dudes  

seriously though look at this woman

anyways dutch and dis bitch (i say affectionately) have Tension And Long Looks a lot of the time, but it’s only tangentially a thing

fairly certain they’re angling for her to endgame with d’avin but tbh dutch needs to be endgamed with therapy, a nap, and a cuddleparty with her platonic lifemates of team awesomeforce

anyways i’m not going to act like i don’t ship dutch and delle seyah kendry (the aforementioned dis bitch) having cantankerous competitive ladysex, because obviously i do, but mostly i ship dutch with a nice calm mental landscape and lots of naps

d’avin: 

the former solider with righteous manpain who’s a righteous irritation for the first season and PURE JOY AND PERFECTION AFTERWARDS 

no

seriously

i shit you not he went from dead last on my list to tied for second place once we got to season two

he’s a punkass lil shit with a smart mouth and i think we can all agree that’s my type

he tends to get along well with all of the superqueer dudes that pree, the excellently queer bartender slash smuggler slash might have been a warlord maybe don’t ask okay, keeps around who are very in love with him (in love with pree, to clarify, not with d’avin; tbh i love d’avin but given the choice between pree and d’avin we would all choose pree.  d’avin would choose pree over d’avin)

also he and fancy are going to date and no one can tell me otherwise 

johnny:

sassypants nerd with a gun who’s excellent with the ladies 

i am convinced, the only fully hetero member of team aweseomeforce and vaguely annoyed by his own inflexible sexuality because it’s the future, dammit, and everyone is queer*

anyways he has a super dramatic romance with a super cool lady and you’ll wind up rooting for them even if you don’t like het ships mostly because they’re good kids and you want them to be happy

likes guns and technology and lucy the sentient spaceship but mostly likes dutch above everything else 

they’re biffles and sometimes have slumber parties to read comic books

ANYWAYS POINT IS there is only really a modicum of romantic nonsense happening on this show, and when it does happen it tends to be pretty well done, and while there is some queer stuff (i don’t want to get too into it bc it will literally spoil the shit right out of you) and it’s treated just like any other romance on the show, it’s not necessarily The Front And Center Ship ™ that the migrating gay rage bubble will insist is the only viable form of representation.  so.  if they really do come and ruin everything, you can bet that’ll be their bigass fucking gripe about this otherwise charmingly ridiculous and magnificent show.

tl;dr watch the show and ignore everyone in fandom and you’ll be good to go

*this is my headcanon and like, let’s be clear, it’s VERY ACCURATE but also will probably never be confirmed so.  y’know.  whatever.

ETA BC MY GIRLFRIEND SAID I HAVE TO: YOU GOTTA WATCH TIL AT LEAST SEASON TWO EP ONE BC THERE

IS

FAKE

MARRIED

!!!!!!!!!!

Dumbledore is gaining cookie points (fucking stepped on and kicked Crouch Jr., speech about Cedric, giving orders to spare Harry, willingness to act to call the Order, second chances, his passwords to his office are candies that a 14 y/o boy can guess) I like him.

The Weasleys were called in as Harry's family, and no one questioned it, damn right uGh

Voldemort is a dramatic ass bitch with flair like no other: arming your enemy? Asking your enemy to duel you? Chatting you enemy up in front of all your supporters? Identifying your anonymous supporters?

Wormtail in a nutshell: betrays everyone on the principle of cowardice and blubbers the entire time

Albus "don't worry about the large dog, Poppy, he's very well trained" Dumbledore oKAy

Albus "go to your abusive relatives' abode for the summer, Harry, the protection I placed on you works in the presence of relatives, so just starve instead of living under the threat of death, mmkay?" Dumbledore

Albus "my pEnsive oh noo it's been left open, I'm so discreet with my secrets and all but Harry Oblivious Potter will be DuMb EnoUgh to stick his face close to the shiny bowl of swirls in the closet" Dumbledore

Crouch Jr. kept referring to Harry's supposed bravery and moral integrity as stupidity, and boY if that just ain't a honest heart at work then I don't fucking know

Neville's parents are insane due to the torturing curse; Harry started to appreciate Neville (more ?) after he found out about his parents

Everyone's so fucking influenced by Skeeter's trash, rip Mrs. Weasley but also 😤 Mrs. Weasley, c'mon

Snape is still a bitch

ALSO I forgot that Sirius signed a form for Harry to go to Hogsmade, and McGonagall didn't let him go without one but let's him go with a permission form signed by an escaped, convicted serial killer???

The Diggorys don't blame Harry

Fudge is textbook denial, reactionary politician

Things that I'm learning as I read Harry Potter for the first time and never knew from the fanfiction and movies

Harry caught the snitch the first time he played for real yeah ok but in his mouth

The Durselys put actual bars on his window and a jail door where they slid cold half filled bowls of soup

Dumbledore is cryptic as fuck

Dumbledore wore purple and heeled boots

Percy's character can be summarized: prefect, antagonized by all brothers

Fred and George are very involved in the story, I thought they were just comedic relief but they're everything the fanfiction had made them out to be

Draco is a little bitch, but Harry's mentioned him more than Ginny at this point

"Harry accidentally beheaded a dead caterpillar"

The first book: why is Harry sad and anxious? House points

Hermione tied up Neville without hesitation

Hermione is the definition of chaotic/neutral good

Hermione, Ron, and Harry's friendship resulted purely from the troll incident™

Lupin sleeps like the fucking dead

Lockhart was freaking annoying, bUt HaRRy THe FAme, OuR GLOry, PiCtUreS?

Hagrid is kind and all, but a baby dragon and man eating spider

Okay also, the baby dragon where Ron gets his dragon taming brother Charlie to send his friends who smuggle a dragon out via broomsticks

Oliver Wood: QuidDiTCH, HArrY HoUse PoIntS

Duddy ... Just, ew, ew

Petunia "is horse faced"

A gun was defined as a "metal wand that Muggles use to kill each other." JK Rowling has got me wondering about the metaphor and allegories of wands vs guns but let's be real she didn't think of it that seriously, bUt check back later for an essay

McGonagall really gave a 13 y/o a time turner

Dumbledore said yes, those Muggles can raise this child who defeated the Dark Lord

Errol, the Weasely owl, is iconic and a def fav character of mine

Ron's signature (13 y/o) is crap and Hermione's signature is classic A+ cursive, and I love it

This was something that struck me when I first saw the movie, the way I see it loki has gone through the same four stages that I, most of my friends, and a lot of other people my age did.

1: Angst. Sad teenager, starts to believe the whole world is against him and no one understands, finds out that things aren’t as great as he thought they would be, struggles to accept the current state of things. Terrible time for an identity crisis, but there we go. (first Thor movie)

2: Edgy. Time to change your look and self destruct. Everything is terrible, you are the darkness. No one gets me I’m probably a phycopath. Time to rage at the world with a dramatic scene of how messed up you are. So he gets fucked up by whatever happened w/ Thanos, tries to take over the world. Shuts everyone out and convinces himself that he’s too dark and fucked up and monsterous because of everything that’s happened to him, and it’s everyone else’s fault. At this point he’s legitimately kinda traumatised - but I’ll get to that in a minute. (The avengers)

3: Well fuck it’s depression time. The dawning realisation that maybe things weren’t as bad at you thought initially but nwt you have to face the consequences of your self destructive actions, and their effect on you. You were sad , you lashed out, now you’re sad and traumatised and everyone is pissed off. Maybe you were sort of fucked up before but now your dramatic attempts to convince everyone that you are the darkness™ have left you actually fucked up. So he’s stuck in prison and his dad and brother are mad at him, and he’s facing eternity in a blank, miserable cell all alone (I’ve been there, metaphorically) and then his mum dies and oh shit now things are actually bad, so now he genuinely doesn’t give a shit about his own life - again. (The dark world)

4: Moving on, growing up (kinda). So he’s had some time to heal, chill out, and get his shit together. Go and be the creative, gay, bitch you always were. By the time we see him here, he’s reached the stage where you can make a lot of the darker fucked up things sound like hilarious anecdotes- I am an expert in this. He’s so used to things going tits up that he’s just letting it wash over him “nope, peace out, I’m not dealing with it”. Maybe he doesn’t deal with it in the best way- excess drinking and partying- but that’s still probably better than homicide/ suicide. It’s the kind of stage my friends and I have reached in our early 20s. Terrible nihilistic humour as a way of coping with shit.

So yeah, @marvel please don’t hurt him he’s almost out of the other side of scene kid puberty hell and he’s come so far

# what the fuck loki
