Ok, ok, rank all the skills from your favorite to least.
You can do this two ways:
* just a big tierlist with all of them (can also include the funky ones [limbic system, ancient reptilian brain and tie])
* or 4 tierlistes with all the types separated
(You can choose what you like more)
Good luck >:]c
OH THIS IS SO FUNNY BECAUSE IVE HAD THIS TIERLIST READY FOR A WEEK NOW HAKJSH <33
it must be said that i love all of them, even the ones on lower tiers. they're all so lovable in their own ways <33
limbic and reptilian brain are both in the blue tier after half light! and the tie would be in a space between yellow and green called "you are funny but im just not a tie kinda guy" hkjhg
EDIT: NOTES ON PLACEMENTS BELOW THE CUT!!
purple heart 💜 means ive got the gist down for their character study chapter in Swept Up (AKA i understand them a little better) and blue heart 💙 means i have a design for them. both of these boost them a bit hkjgh <3
Shivers, my city, my beloved of all time, La Revacholiere... what can't i say about her. she's everything actually. the world who loves you. the world can be saved. you can save her. Shivers!!! I adore you!!!!! 💜💙

Electrochemistry!! if he wasn't in besties, he would be in "You are so fucking funny" but i do adore him... im used to being called a "smol innocent uwu bean pure cinnamon roll aroace" YOU KNOW THE TYPE, and writing echem has let me write silly stupid pick up lines and inappropriate jokes that im constantly withholding. you are. so tragic funny, your lines make me laugh and then i'll sit and stare at a wall when i think about you too hard. i KNOW you can heal my guy im kissing you directly on the forehead 💜💙
Perception!!! HONESTLY perception could go into the besties category, i LOVE it, but i think friends suits it better. that's my senses and im very fond of it. guy who tells me what i see!! 💜💙

Pain Threshold! dude what is wrong with you (affectionate). thank you for helping me through pain, and your over-masochistic tendencies are extremely amusing to me. dude what is WRONG with you (endeared) 💜💙
Physical Instrument, THE COACH HIMSELF!! god dude, you almost went into the Threatening tier but no, no, you're too funny. i think you're so amusing, why do you SAY THINGS like that dude hkjgh. guy who wants us to jog and lift weights and hit things and is fucking hilarious about it?? i headcanon him as keeping most of the gym teacher memories, so he's good with kids... 💜

(affectionate) i love the fucking shit you remember dude. sorry i just added 50 new words to swept up about him hkjhg 💜💙
Visual Calculus, this is my friend who can make cool light projections and i am FOND OF THEM, i think they're neat!!
Conceptualization, artiste extraordinaire, i ENJOY YOU!! i really like my design for xim, but im still working on her characterization. i love artists. i feel like she wants to see the beauty in things... i appreciate xer :] 💜💙
Logic, pretty neutral about this guy actually, but i do love a skill who tries to get everyone on track hskjsh 💜💙?
Rhetoric! im glad you help us talk good dude!! but you are so very argumentative and im bad at confrontation hkjdh i love communism though, you're so right for that 💜?💙?
Horrific Necktie! my guy please don't choke us and also you are a little too wild for me!! your suggestions are not what i want to do hakjhs but you're amusing and i like you.
Authority! dude, dude, i HATE confrontation nooooo hhkjh!!!! please don't make me exercise my position as a cop noOOOO!!! but i do love you though, you're in charge of some VERY important checks and you're very amusing.
HALF LIGHT ACTUALLY, we're switching her higher because i somehow forgot endurance is misogynistic and fascist?? hkgjh DIVERSITY WIN!! half light will kill everyone equally and we love him for this. like, i will not do your suggestions because i would rather not kill people, also you are very threatening and confrontational, but thank you for looking out for me?? i made a design for her and i think shes so interesting. shes very scared all the time and is not having a good time and i understand little one i get it :'] i will wrap you in blankets (you will burn them and thats okay) 💜💙
Endurance, my guy PLEASSEEEE get better ideology, but you're part of health gang squad and also want harry to live and you remind me of an older sibling who feels like he has to be the strong one while everyone else is weak, so you can stand in the way and protect the ones who can't take a blow. you will endure it... smiles sadly at him... 💙
Limbic System and Ancient Reptilian Brain!! i do love you, i promise, but the voice in my head that tells me i should sleep forever and never wake up has spoken to me for a long time and IM NOT LISTENING ANYMORE!!! we gotta live, little guys. there's a life worth living, worth waking up for. i know it's hard, little guys, but there's a future for us, i promise. also, lovely singing both of you!!
ough. in general i love all the skills. they all want what's best for harry but each of their definitions of "what's best for harry" skew wildly from "live a quiet, normal life" to "learn everything and infodump it to everyone" to "do every drug ever and then drink a whole bar's worth of liquor so you can get dopamine" to "go back to being a gym teacher!" to "FUCKING KILL EVERYONE YOU'RE NOT SAFE HERE" to "it's better in the dark isn't it? where you don't have to worry?" and im trying to understand all of their motives. i do love all of them. skills fan forever and ever <3333
OKAY THATS ALL THANKS FOR READING o7!!
#volta transmissions#hAHSKJH I HAD THIS. READY <33 i hope you are ready for an ask back because i wanna see your faves too <3!!!#volta do mar is actually up there with besties if we count her hkjhg i love you volta do mar... i have many thoughts about you.#kinetic dressage is with ''my friends'' if they count too. ough. kim skills :]!!#task: swept up#esprit: Red

20 questions for writers
tagged absolute yonks ago by @wispstalk and @dirty-bosmer, thank you both <3
Tagging back: uhhhh everyone will probably have been tagged already. sorry if that's you. @ghoulsbeard @ervona @lucien-lachance @stormbeyondreality @zomboidatomic @gilgamish @profanetools and any other writer mutuals who'd like to consider themselves tagged!
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
3
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
302,371
3. What fandoms do you write for?
the elder scrolls. it sits in that perfect overlap between 'compelling enough for me to get invested' and 'narratively dissatisfying enough for me to want to fix it'. and it's the perfect sandbox for writing abt my own characters... not sure how motivated i'd be to write fic without that sort of freedom
4. What are your top five fics by kudos?
i only have 3 :/
5. Do you respond to comments?
yes, usually! unless it's a comment along the lines of 'update soon' i will usually get round to replying at some point.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
ummmm well two are WIPs and my one completed one-shot doesn't 'end' in the traditional sense (it's an imaginary prologue to an in-game book) so... i will go with The Waiting Door as it's pretty angsty already and will (eventually) continue in that vein if i ever get round to it, the fic with the angstiest ending WILL be my take on the dragonborn DLC. but that's a long way off
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
see above
8. Do you get hate on fics?
no
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
ermmmm sort of. if you count the odd sex scene in King & Lionheart. but i usually only include it if it bears some kind of significance to the narrative or someone's character development. the sex scenes i've published so far have been quite introspective and not super 'smutty' in the traditional sense. BUT i do sometimes write smut-smut. i'm just not very good at it lol so it will never see the light of day
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
no
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
no
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
no
13. Have you ever co-written a fic?
nothing published but one of my beta readers and i have a couple of one-shots together
14. What's your all-time favorite ship?
well. it has to be my beloveds jórunn and raydrin. they are everything to me. i made them when i was 9 (they weren't originally TES characters) and have thought about them basically every day since. my forever ship fr <3
15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
at this rate... king & lionheart </3
16. What are your writing strengths?
hmmmmm i think my character work is a strength. and i've been trying to get more creative with my prose on my last few projects/chapters which i think is paying off (based on some lovely comments i've received)!
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
picking and choosing what to include and what to skip over. i think, as well, i was so afraid of purple prose for a long time that my prose suffered from being wayyyyy too sterile and uninspired. but this is something i'm working on!
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
OUGH this one's complicated. done correctly, i love it! but it needs to take into account the languages spoken by the POV character. a few lines of dialogue in another language to indicate that the POV character doesn't understand what is being said is fine. but obviously you don't want to write out a whole conversation like this. there's a few other contexts where i think it's okay but TLDR it depends.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
i think i wrote tokyo mew mew fic when i was maybe 7 or 8? if that counts
20. Favorite fic you've written?
has to be the waiting door! everyone please read the waiting door. not to toot my own horn but i fucking ATE with that fic <3

How do you feel about the Ahsoka show being live-action Rebels season 5?
that's a difficult question
I'm salty about my favourite characters having to tell their stories as background characters in a show about Ahsoka (Dave's favourite)
I would've preferred for it to be animated as well OR have an independent show :(
there are only 8 episodes, 4 of which are flashbacks and a load of new characters and OUGH I just want to see my beloveds again
overall I'm excited but worried!! I'm trying to stay positive cause I REALLY don't want another heartbreak like I had with sequels
I'm also worried about possible writing decisions regarding my favourite crew
AHHHH so many emotions and thoughts ANYWAY
I'm FULLY ready to pick and choose what is going to be canon in my eyes
#toby talk#asks#anon you really are asking provocative questions LMAO /lighthearted#mwah#im excited but scared

This passage too for the DVD commentary, lol I couldn’t choose… also so predictable of me to choose scenes with Jack and Sam 💀
OUGH OKAY
so once again this is my beloved fic and this is the prompt
So in this voicemail we got the first time Dean is trying to be respectful of Jack's pronouns while he talks about their plans for college. This is definitely one of the fluffier voicemails in the fic.
Originally, I was going to have Jack use he/they pronouns (I actually still think that's more fitting, or even he/she/they, but again i digress) but as I was writing, I realized that anytime anyone (but specifically Dean this is the Dean fic) used 'he' it would still technically be right. So I actually changed it for Jack to use exclusively they/them, because I wanted Dean to struggle. I wanted him to try. I wanted him to mess up but keep going so he could keep trying to do better by Jack. (It's a headcanon-- or I guess it's just canon to Cell Service, bc I'm God here lol-- that Jack actually uses any pronouns with friends but asked Dean/Sam/Cas to use they/them bc they were worried about confusing them lol. You know how it is with parents)
Again, there was A LOT to unpack in the Dean&Jack dynamic that I just didn't have the time and energy for. Plus, this fic was about Castiel and Dean. But I still wanted to show them both trying to connect with each other.
And I think Dean is def the type to act a little more cold/uncaring to the person in question, but gush about them to someone else. It's all a front tho he not so secretly cares a whole whole lot.
I decided that Jack should be going to college because, while I still wanted them to feel naive, I wanted Jack to be a young adult (I'm not a fan of baby jack but that's a spiel for another day). And I thought college could be something 1) to have them mirror Sam and 2) to ahhhh once again make Dean spiral into abandonment issues and feeling useless.
He wants to be happy for Jack, and he is! But again someone is leaving him. And that's hard.
I picked a writing degree for Jack because I thought it would be fun to not have them be capital G God but still imply to take over the narrative in some way. They're choosing to make better stories.
And then we get some classic 'baby birds leaving the nest' worrying from Dean.
I'm going to pat myself on the back for a few of the details in this voicemail-- namely, the use of pronouns.
We see at the beginning Dean trying his level best to use they/them pronouns, getting the swing of it for a second, but as he gets more in his own head and starts worrying about Jack, falls back into the habit of 'he.' It takes a while, even the most well-meaning of people, to get used to a change like that.
And, at the very end of this segment, I thought I did something a little clever.
The pronouns get more personal as Dean keeps talking.
I think Dean as a character says the most in between his actual dialogue. What he doesn't say is almost more important than what he does. All those pauses and restarts in the voicemails are him thinking, rephrasing, not bringing himself to say what he wants, or sometimes changing his mind and speaking honestly.
and at the very end there, he's connecting Jack to Cas. He starts by saying 'You [have a good kid]', then, changes his mind. He's taking accountability for his relationship to both Jack and Cas: 'We've got a good kid.' Then, finally, a testament to his growth: 'I'm trying to be good back.'
Also I'm just a slut for Dean being a book nerd and I think he and Jack would bond over that. I wanted it to be a Vonnegut book and im going to be real I had not read Timequake before putting it in this fic so i was really hoping it was thematically relevant given what little i knew about it.
#THANK YOU FOR THE ASK <3333#vinny answers#I love how many people love Sam and Jack's role in cell service but i like them both a lot as characters#but didn't have much room to do a lot with them in this fic#so it makes me really happy when my efforts are still recognized and appreciated even with their limited focus

HBD GRIMSLEYYYYYY 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 u can use this ask to talk about ur blorbo of ur choosing if u want. I HOPE TODAYS GOOD TO U
TY VIXEN MY BELOVED!!! <3 i hope it's good to me too, we're watching advent children w/ my mom and that will be. An Experience
Anyway! i believe i shall talk about my current on-the-mind meowmeow, mr. vincent fowler who is living in my mind rent free because he's my focus for miqomarch. here he is!
i originally made him because i wanted a character in xiv to sexualize (sorry) because my main wol is a BABY teenager. and i wanted to play with mods. but then i got attached and now vincent makes me feel shrimp emotions
he's got like. four different verses but the main one i focus on is wol!vincent because Ough. he's a sharlayan moonkeeper miqo who had a special interest in primals as a kid and got scolded, put down and bullied for it for his entire childhood and he has a bit of a complex about it. when the sharlayan exodus happened (when vincent was 12), he broke into the great gubal library and stole a bunch of books on primals and ran off into dravania/coerthas in the middle of winter :^)
he got picked up by a young estinien and accidentally weaseled his way into becoming estinien's adopted younger brother. estinien renamed him to keep him from standing out as much around ishgardians so he just white-ified his name (vincent was originally named vincen'to fawhra. and estinien went "hhmmm how about vincent fowler". really creative estinien thanks). and then vincent joined the dragoons and, at 17, accidentally became the second azure dragoon. which he did not want! he became a dragoon as a cover for studying summoning/primals and then he got too good at it. so he wasn't exactly thrilled and got shoved into a position of power WHICH LED TO:
he got sent off to fight garuda alone when the ixal summoned her because the ishgardians wanted him dead, and because vincent's azem was the one who created her and risked a lot to save her from being destroyed as a creation, she recognized his soul and let him kill her to spare him. and because of the way smn works (yknow, have to have killed the primal to summon it!) suddenly vincent found himself able to just. summon her. he can't summon any of the other primals it's just her. they're best friends but they act like they hate each other and they make me cry so so much (it's the red-string-of-fate i-can't-let-you-go-even-though-i-can't-remember-why AGONY)
also he was childhood friends with g'raha and y'shtola but obviously lost contact when he ran away. g'raha had a kid crush on him that he never really got rid of and long story short, they end up together after shb but not without like, a LOT of agony
guys who make me really, really insane. vinraha my friends my meowmeows. i don't want to talk too much about their stuff because that's like. this reply is getting so fucking long but just know that they make me feel like screaming
but yeah. he's a weird drg/smn/drk combo where a lot of his attacks/abilities utilize garuda in some way. i call him a windcaller :)
UHHHH other than that, he's pretty and a little bit of a whore and extremely loyal to a fault and he puts on a scary face until you talk to him for like 5 minutes and realize he's actually very sweet. he gives good hugs and has wide shoulders and he's beefy and i want to kiss him on the face.
OH AND LAST THING: he and sidurgu had/have a weird relationship where they had a one night stand one time and sid thinks about it all the time and vincent never thinks about it at all. sid is still hopelessly in love with him despite the fact that it's been years. rielle likes vincent more than sid and also bullies sid about still being Like That with vincent. they permanently have weird sexual tension and also vaguely don't get along and it is so fucking funny to me. sid sees vincent showing raha around ishgard and vincent's making cat kissy eyes at raha and sid's like Oh. God Dammit. i think it's funny when grown ass men are weird like this.
anyway that is all <3 hope you enjoyed my ted talk and ty again for letting me talk about my blorbo
#long post#vincent#grim.txt#asks#TY VIXEN SORRY FOR THIS LONG ASS RESPONSE I'M JUST AUUHGH#mental illness caused by meowmeows

i know yall are focused on the tumblr sexymanification of albert and vincent and victor but IM focused on tumblrsexywomenification. i think we can make it happen. unrelated but i think zalmona and vanora are lesbians
#and for each other btw. asdakfj#anyways i just finished playing all of vincent the secret of myers im gonna go insane#i have theories !!! i have theories.#i think like. the majority of ch1-4 didnt actually happen#if u wait for the credits to be over (which isnt hard theyre not very long this is an itchio indie game)#u get those two characters (probly ex myers workers)#talking about how vanora can see the future. and THEN it shows the whole game REWINDING#and THEN you get dialogue of draco calling u whatever name u picked at the beginnign#the whole game was just a vision of the future that vanora saw but it didnt actually happen !! fuckin bet#esp cuz the red and blue voices talk about how they cant let vanora investigate myers. as if van reinvestigating myers hasnt happened yet#and it makes sense cuz van brutally killing both draco and vin in one chapter is a super drastic thing#and it makes sense that thatd happen if two mins later its rewinded anyways#just. OUGH thats what i think happened anyways#n the two unidentified voices talk about how myers is trying to pit van and vin against each other#by picking and choosing which specific memories of her past van receives#(implying that van and vin Would work together if van had more of her memories/different memories of her past)#(ALSO implying that van wasnt as loyal to myers as the memories we saw would lead us to believe)#just. OUGH. good shit. weird games on itchio my beloved. rlly fuckin picked up at the end there#jc.txt#and not a single person who follows me is gonna know what the hell im talking about. asldjalkf

I just wanna say that I absolutely adore your work! I've only been a new fan for maybe a month now? but I'm deep in the rabbit hole man. I'm also curious, if you had to pick a favorite song from each album what would they be?
Hello and oh goodness thank you so much!! 💕That’s wonderful! Welcome to Hell! We have free snacks on Tuesdays and orgies on Fridays
Nice, I love this question, thank you! Alrighty here we go
Opus Eponymous (2010)
The og. Papa Emeritus I aka Primo’s (aka “grandpa fucks”) album.
I love every song on this album, tbh. Play this on vinyl and light some incense- top tier. But my favorite has to be Con Clavi Con Dio because it rocks so fucking hard.
infestissumam (2013)
Papa Emeritus II aka Secondo’s (aka dang ass freak, aka bone daddy) album.
This album has the excellent spooky vibes and I love it. It’s so hard to choose a favorite but imma say Year Zero for being absolutely legendary, incredible to see live, and for the infamous uncensored (it’s out there) Papa dong shot in the music video.
Meliora (2016)
Papa Emeritus III aka Terzo’s (aka the flamboyant one, aka my beloved) album.
Oughhhhhdbdhsfj I love Meliora. It’s vibes are immaculate, sexy, and just OUGH. Also if you haven’t seen the music videos for Square Hammer and From The Pinnacle To The Pit, please do. My favorite song is Cirice. It rocks, it’s a good representation of the album as a whole, and it makes me feel things. (Second favorite is Mummy Dust because HOT)
Prequelle (2018)
Cardinal Copia aka Cardi’s (aka Cardi C, aka rat man, aka our beloved idiot) album.
I personally noticed a distinct shift in musical style on this album compared to the first three. I am no music expert so it’s difficult to put my finger on what it is exactly, but I love it. My favorite is definitely Witch Image, the lyrics make my brain go bbrbbrbrrrrrr.
IMPERA (2022)
Papa Emeritus IV aka Copia’s album part 2 (aka Copia got a promotion, aka the anointed one, aka Popia).
A masterpiece from start to finish! I know I’m not alone in saying that this album made me cry. In a good way. With everything that’s happened over the past couple of years it just… hits you hard. Despite the doom and gloom in the lyrics, it makes things feel better. Like everything will be ok. Is that a bit over the top? Maybe. But it’s how I feel, so there. That being said, my favorite song is Spillways. Another good representation of the album as a whole the rocks and is excellent for singing in the shower.
#thank you for asking!#i ended up writing you a short thesis lol#anonymous ask#the band ghost#opus eponymous#infestissumam#meliora#prequelle#impera#i wanna know your favorite songs peoples!

imma run and yeet stella at you for list stuff and run awayyy!!
OUGH STELLA 🥺
send me a character and I’ll list:
favorite thing about them She's just so fun! It's hard to pick one thing. But if I had to choose, it's her personality. I love how she puts on this front of glamorous and like that celebrity facade but really she's just a dork.
least favorite thing about them Definitely how she treats Lluna. It's like her worst quality. But she does seem to really care about her despite it.
favorite line "That's right! It's Petra, armed with her mighty sword Miss Butter! Ha! And by her side is her best friend, the greatest hero in the world, Jesse! Together, they can take on--uhh--Hi! Hello."
brOTP Ooh, probably her and Radar! I think they seem very found siblings core. They probably used to gossip and gush over the New Order a lot together 💚
OTP Ooh, okay, listen, I'm a multishipper from hell. So like I don't have one ship for her that I prefer above the rest. But I do really like her and Aiden. Character parallels, MY BELOVED. Also, her and Jesse,,,, teehee, told you, can't pick. If we're talking OT3s definitely her, Jesse, and Petra 💚
nOTP Her and Radar. They're siblings, your honor.
random headcanon Although she seems the type to not want to ever lift a finger, she enjoys gardening, immensely. She grows all manner of things and is really good at it too.
unpopular opinion Ooh, I don't know that I have a specific, like, unpopular opinion. Other than maybe how I headcanon her sexuality? That's a whole disaster bi, your honor.
song I associate with them Primadonna Girl - MARINA
favorite picture of them does all of your fan art count? This one 💜
[Image ID: A screenshot from Minecraft Story Mode: Season 2 in Stella's Treasure Room. Petra is looking at Stella who is looking back at her and using Miss Butter to lean on with her legs crossed and a hand on her hip /.End ID]
#answered asks#dorkousloris#mcsm#minecraft story mode#mcsm stella#feel free to send me more of these!#Thank you for the ask lori!#I don't often get to talk about stella#which is a tragedy because she is one of my favorite characters

related to that last ask but now i actually have a question! what are your favourite episodes for amy as a character? (sorry if i’m pestering you btw you don’t have to answer right away ❣️)
it is absolutely never a bother for me to talk about amy pond!! gosh though this is a Question. okay. i did interpret this as episodes that are my favorite for the lens of My Understanding Of Amy instead of favorite pond era episodes as a whole if that makes sense? under the cut bc i got long as i tend to do
i think my number 1 has to be the big bang, because it really is just like. okay, pond era absolutely runs into the problem of frequently making stories/episodes that should be centered around amy's emotional journey actually about somebody else — but the big bang is all hers. it is all on her! she's leading the show SHE'S the one in the pandorica SHE'S the one who remembers the doctor into existence it is HER choice to say goodbye to leadworth and continue to travel completely without remorse SHE IS THE HERO. it goes from "time can be rewritten, he'll find a way" to AMY being the one who finds the way. rory and river and the doctor all of course get their Moments but it's unquestionably amy's spotlight moment the whole way through
i have also ALWAYSSS been obsessed with starless universe amelia and the way that she still believes in stars in a world where they DON'T EXIST the power of her mind and the conviction of her beliefs is a CORE TENET of amy's character, the doctor has NOTHING to do with it!!! it's just who she is !!! best character of all time <3
other things about the amy's writing in this episode i love: the line "the universe pouring into her dreams every night," space florida outfit <3, ok i obviously do not love this but i think so much about amy talking about the doctor at her wedding and her mother is still like "NOT THIS SHIT AGAIN… i thought the psychiatrists FIXED her" like once again !!! a UNIVERSAL CONSTANT that amy is the one who believes in things nobody else does and is LOUD about it and is RIGHT !!! (let's kill hitler tried to retcon this but it simply won't work on me ❤️ just like anything else about the let's kill hitler flashbacks ❤️❤️❤️), OKAY DOCTOR DID I SURPRISE YOU THIS TIME? <3
number 2, i think, is the eleventh hour itself? like it's just… i've rewatched it so many times and it's still the most captivating character introduction i have ever seen. i know i'm biased but i love it so much. her introduction as a clearly neglected seven year old girl (constantly think about the deleted line that has her talking to aunt sharon and saying "you're not supposed to leave me, i'm seven!" WOOF) who's not afraid of anything except for the crack in her wall… she has drawings up all over her house of burning houses, she draws smiley faces into her apples bc her mom used to do that, she can cook for herself way better than i could at seven, and she desperately just wants to leave. but when the doctor tells her he'll be back in five minutes, amy is already so used to adults leaving her and breaking their promises that she doesn't believe him. but he makes her believe anyway. and he doesn't come back.
and all of the rest of her character hinges on that introduction — of course she has to believe him, he was REAL, nobody can take his realness away from her even if she is the only one who believes. but he also left her all alone for so long, just like everyone else who was supposed to be there for her did, so what good does that to her? so yeah of course she grows up angry and bitter and hiding those layers of hurt deeply under the surface, scorning all attachment and serious relationships because she knows she can't trust them. she outwardly distances herself from her childhood self by changing her name but she IS still just such a child inside.
she's not ready to settle, to grow up, to become what everyone in her tiny village wants her to be, thinks that she should be — so when she gets the chance to GO, of course she takes it. but she's also not just going to let the doctor off the hook for [gestures] her entire life, you know? the exchanges "people always say that" "i'm not people, do i even look like people?" | "people always have a reason" "do i look like people?" "Yes." always just GUT ME. she may trust him but it's NOT a blind trust, it can't be.
number 3 has to be the beast below it just makes me SCREAM how good that episode is at really developing amy through her compassion for other people — right from the start she sees that kid crying and she thinks the doctor must ignore stuff like this all the time, and she says that she could never do that. she's learning and intuiting leaps and bounds about the doctor with everything he says to her — which is another one of my favorite amy character traits, the way she is SO quick to pick up on things about other people and analyze them. everything that she picks up about the doctor allows her to KNOW what to do to save the star whale, allows her to be confident in the fact that the star whale wanted to help the whole time. the choice is IN HER HANDS she IS THE HERO <3 as she always should be. you couldn't just stand there and watch people cry! all that pain and misery and loneliness and it MADE IT KIND. i don't care how overused that quote is it still HITS !!!
um. number 4 is the girl who waited but my very specific headcanon-ridden interpretation and cutting out all that garbage "rory's the most beautiful man i've ever met" "defying destiny causality the nexus of time itself for a boy" bullshit. idk there's so many terrible things about this episode but it also gave me so much to think about when it comes to amy it's on my mind a LOT. one thing i think about is the way it parallels amy's first abandonment by the doctor — not just in the obvious sense but in the way that she's actively fighting for her life in a hostile atmosphere, but nobody else SEES it as a hostile atmosphere. the two streams facility is leadworth like it really is. and what adds a more chilling component is the way the handbots signature line is "do not be alarmed, this is a kindness" — like all the people who were trying to convince amy she was crazy throughout her entire childhood really thought they were doing her a kindness. they thought they were helping her. but they were killing her. because she wasn't made for that environment.
beyond that i am just obsessed with 36-years-later amy she is an icon she is a legend she is the moment i don't care! every mean thing she said about the doctor and rory was absolutely deserved and in fact she should have been so much meaner! she is SO SMART she makes her own SONIC PROBES OUT OF CAMERA PHONES the fact that she even was able to SURVIVE THAT LONG and in COMPLETE isolation and still retain her own mental faculties is just insane to me it speaks so much about her insane mental strength oh my god it makes me sooo emotional i am tearing up a little typing this right now.
i just am always THINKING about the line "there he is, the voice of god. number one lesson: survive, because no one's coming for you. you taught me that" it says SO MUCH about her. oh my god older amy didn't want to die she'll be kicking and screaming and fighting til the end… i fucking hate this show and picking and choosing when paradoxes should apply OLDER AMY DESERVED TO LIVE
number 5 is probably the power of three but my own very headcanon infused interpretation of it. because it's like. the ultimate miscommunication/misunderstanding that exists between amy and the doctor coming to a head. where amy in 7.02 is like "i can't not wait for you, even now. (…) we think you're weaning us off you" (that line always makes me slow exhale … the phrasing of the doctor as a drug) and the doctor keeps insisting that's not true, "you'll be there until the end of me" "or vice versa" (and they have that loaded held stare and you know they're both thinking about what he said to her before he left in the god complex…)
but it's not until this episode where amy starts to actually believe he means it. at the same time she's spent so much TIME preparing for the inevitable moment where the doctor says goodbye and doesn't say hello ever again that she's not willing to fully hope that the doctor really means it when he says that he would never leave her permanently on purpose. and i love that this episode gives amy a lot of space to verbally communicate her emotions because the later pond episodes SORELY LACK THAT. and amy tells him, don't be nice to me, don't stop coming around just because you think that's the kind thing to do. even though she says herself that she doesn't know if she can have "both" — she knows that she can tell the doctor to stay, in her own way, and that he'll listen.
ideally they would have just gone off traveling together forever after that and the angels take manhattan did not happen but unlike what the doctor says about amy, i don't ever get what i want 🙃
also, this episode gave amy friends that weren't rory or the doctor or river so i love it for that on principal <3 i know amy had fun being the bridesmaid at laura's lesbian wedding. and kate!!
( i do hate that this episode ends with that conversation between brian and the doctor. i hate brian as a character and i will forever. won't get into this right now but OUGH )
honestly this list is kind of wobbly and might change if you asked me in a month so i'll just rattle off other favorite episodes / moments real quickly: the good night minisode (it counts!), RIVER SONG DIDN'T GET IT ALL FROM YOU SWEETIE (timeline frozen amy my beloved!), "i remember it so it happened so i did it," vincent and the doctor specifically when vincent tells amy that he hears the song of her sadness…. ow, i could write a whole other essay about amy's choice and how it is so much more complex than people give it credit for but this post is already so goddamn long
#i literally do apologize for how long this got but you have to understand i was holding myself back .#she is…. everything. to me. i could keep going for so long#amy pond#ask#jonismitchell

ALL of the questions for the kirby ask game >;3
are you marx. am i being pranked (affectionate) right now.
#1.): favourite game
my favourite games in the franchise are the dark matter trilogy!!!!
#2.): least favourite game
mass attack. i'm just mad because i don't have it and can't talk to daroach.
#3.): favourite character
i guess my favourite character has to be kirby, if i had to choose just one! the cast is filled with all sorts of characters that easily steal my heart but kirby’s at the top because playing as him fulfills my need to have godlike powers and beat-up everyone who's ever wronged me as a child
#4.): least favourite character
marx. i don’t hate him or anything but he scares me a little. drawing him is a pain because the product is so heavily distorted—it looks like something out of resident evil instead. i’m working on it, though.
#5.): favourite copy ability
cleaning! and metal.
#6.): least favourite copy ability
bomb.
#7.): favourite villain and/or final boss
my favourite villains are the villains of the dark matter trilogy!! dark matter swordsman, zero, the dark dugtrio, miracle matter, 0^2...... they're my scrunglies ❣️
#8.): final boss that gave you the most trouble
gosh. diddly. darn. miracle matter. i love miracle matter so much. they're my scrimblo. my mipy. i would double tap the when.
it took me many attempts to defeat them, but despite the heavy challenge, the requirement of having to employ a hefty amount of strategy and precision to so do just. i love it so much. boss fights are so poggers when they're more than "uh just run up and punch them i guess"
miracle matter my sweet darling 💖
#9.): favourite mirror world / parallel counterpart
due to my dearly beloved friend lorena's mirror-worlder propaganda, i am obligated to say the truth: all of them
#10.): favourite music track
i cannot pick just one track. i believe the soundtracks of the dark matter trilogy are my favourites, as well as their remixes! dark matter trilogy supremacy
#11.): favourite final boss music track
dark matter trilogy supremacy.
#12.): favourite plushie/other merch
gooey. i wish i had the he
#13.): favourite minor enemy/helper
ough i love the gordo-chucking dude in dl3.
#14.): favourite mid/mini-boss
miracle matter! i think
#15.): have you ever beaten a boss rush / arena mode
yes!!! dl3 and k64cs
#16.): have you ever 100%-ed a file? which games
i can't remember all from the top of my head, but i have definitely 100%-ed dl2, dl3, and k64cs
#17.): favourite piece of lore
dark matters can transform themselves to mimic things they've seen and experienced!
this is how dark matter swordsman...well, turns into a swordsman; and how miracle matter harnesses multiple copy abilities; and how dark matter swordsman's clone harnesses the power of the rainbow sword without the real deal.
#18.): favourite dream friend to play as in star allies
the dl2 trio!
#19.): favourite type of level
i love the levels that take place high in the sky. cloudy park, skyhigh, nutty noon............ cloub
#20.): least favourite type of level
water! i do not like the soup.
#21.): favourite mini-game/sub-game
ough... this
#22.): favourite animal friend?
don't make me choose between my babies
#23.): favourite type of puzzle?
i love all of the puzzles that require you to think outside the box and use your character's abilities to the fullest...
#24.): least favourite type of puzzle?
...but i can imagine without any guides to help those puzzles could become frustrating quickly if you don't get it. i think the most jackass puzzle in the franchise is the pick heart-star level in dream land 3.
in no manuals anywhere does it say you can climb up walls with rick, yet in pick's heart star level you have you complete the entire level with rick, utilising his wall-climb ability by making several precise inputs to avoid hitting gordos as you jump from wall-to-wall.
i can imagine a 90s kid getting frustrated at not being able to get the pick heart-star because, even if they were to know that they needed to bring rick to the end of the level they probably wouldn't know beforehand that rick had a wall-climb move, nor would they probably be able to pull off the precise inputs required to safely escort rick the end.
#25.): favourite piece of official art?
this is valentine's day artwork from the twitter!! there's a lot going on in this image.
ribbin!!! ado!!!! chuchu!!! shiro!!! pick!!!! dark matter trilogy supremacy
claycia and elline!!! i love the rainbow curse besties
oh yeah susie's there too. and kirby.
haha these characters are all ladies, except for kirby... unless?
they bake the cookie!!!! they decorate the cookie!!!!!!!
shiro is holding a bag with nago cookies,,,,, pick is holding a bag with rick cookies,,,,,,,,,,,,,
ado and elline are the only two to notice they're being spied on
ribbon is so shoccked that kirby steal cookie
