People who say erza "doesn't show any signs of trauma the way other characters do" and is therefore not a complex character, then complain about her social awkwardness, rigid personality, generally hostile outward appearance and tendency to resort to violence as a fix all solution in the same breath make me so genuinely angry.
#yknow you can just not like a character right#you dont need to make shit up#“she was so mean to everyone on galuna”😥😥NO SHIT. THATS THE POINT.#Shes been shown genuine kindness in her life by exactly ONE GUY. SHES LOYAL TO HIM AMD HIS RULES ABOVE ALL ELSE#early on especially her sense of morals where good for guild=good bad for guild=bad#AND YEA THATS NOT A GOOD THING. THATS WHERE THE DEVELOPMENT COMES IN YOU MORON.#“shes not as traumatized as somone like gray hes way more complex”😒😒#she shows it in different ways.#to this day she cries alone if she can help it#to this day she cant stand to relive the memories#yea she gets better overtime but why is that a bad thing??#shes still got issues but shes so much more comfortable being herself now and honestly i don't think thats bad#fairy tail#erza scarlet#erant over my fault og#never go on reddit you start ranting and raving#fairy tail erza

A thought just occurred to me...
Today makes it 294 days since the last episode of Killing Eve aired. Maybe that means something special to you. Mostly, it's another sad Sunday without your former obsessively watched television show.
But it's also the last Sunday for the WeAreVillanelle Tumblr and Instagram. Does that make me sad?
I won't lie. It does a bit. It hurts to let go of Killing Eve. It's been a big part of my life for a long time now. I only started this Tumblr so I could rant and rave and ramble about this amazing show and the amazingly talented women making it happen. I wanted to rant about Killing Eve and all the great acting, writing and directing we witnessed and how the brilliance of this unique project inspired so much art, photography, producing, writing, and other manifestations of an engaged audience of creatives and fans. Killing Eve started off as a weird little show and it spawned a weird little fandom of wonderful weirdos who loved and savored every moment when Villanelle stylishly dispatched some poor bastard and Eve raked her hands through her magnificent mane in sapphic frustration. Then it all went to hell because of the amazingly untalented women who got ahold of the show and ran it into the ground.
I alternate between still being sad about how it ended and mad over how it happened and the total unnecessity of it all. If only Neal and Gentle hadn't chosen cruelty. Villanelle was no hero but she did not need to die that way. Villanelle did not deserve to die that way. Eve didn't need to be tortured that way. WE certainly didn't need to be treated so shabbily as Laura Neal sneered, "Hello, Losers" and made Jodie Comer speak those words out of her mouth knowing within minutes it would be Villanelle herself who would be losing both her life and love. I will never forgive Neal for that. I will never forgive Sally Woodward Gentle for hiring Neal to do that. That's another reason I'm not sad these Sundays and KE are over.
I'm not sure I'm leaving the KE fandom as much as I'm not going to be actively engaging in it in the way that I have. I'm still following various KE bloggers like @anevolutionarynecessity, @agaywithcoffee and @saturnvs, among others here on Tumblr as well on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Reddit and I'm really looking forward to The Killing Eve Flip Book in February. But I need to put some space between this obsession and the rest of my time. I've loved Killing Eve and hated what was done to it long enough. Frankly, I could use a break. I need some fresh air. I need to inhale and exhale without checking my Tumblr hits first thing in the morning and last thing at night Let me shout out and say hello to my 17 new followers (and where the hell have you been until now when I'm about to close up for the night and every day and night after today?). Sorry if I'm rambling and less focused than usual. I've had a few...stimulants tonight and I'm feeling good about life despite ample reasons not to. We are ALL going through something and is only a different thing from what I'm going through.
One does not simply "leave" the Killing Eve fandom. One moves on and waits for a reason to come back.

FAQs
Since I started my OnlyFans a few weeks ago, I’ve gotten literal hundreds of messages asking for advice on how to get one started, how to market, how to be safe, etc. Well, ask and you shall receive.
Q: How can I be anonymous on OF?
A: I recommend, especially to people going into healthcare or other professional fields, do NOT show your face or any identifying features. It isn’t worth the risk. I personally chose OnlyFans as my platform because it allows you to not show your face in your content, unlike a lot of cam sites. This makes sense, because cam sites want to cut down on human trafficking as much as possible. I wanted to remain as anonymous as possible and therefore, I cover a unique scar that is visible in a lot of my content and I never show my face. The key here is plausible deniability if your employer or parents or whoever finds your account- if there is plausible deniability that the account or content is yours, they don’t have a leg to stand on. Also for your own safety- you don’t necessarily want to be recognized as an online sex worker in your town or city.
Q: Do I need to give them my information?
A: Yes. OF requires a picture of your face along with your government issued photo ID to be able to confirm that you are who you say you are and you are of legal age to be making adult content. They also require you to fill out a W-9 for tax purposes and add your bank info for direct deposit. Your info will NOT be posted on the site, so you do not have to perform or make content under your legal name.
Q: How do the taxes work?
A: Honestly not sure... not a tax expert here by any means. They will send you a 1099 form at some point for you to do your taxes. I use TurboTax. OF takes 20% of your earnings, but you DO still need to pay taxes on your remaining 80%. For this reason, I am personally choosing to put every cent into a savings account to 1. make it easier on myself to do taxes for later and 2. keep it separate from the rest of my money.
Q: What do you put on your OF?
A: OF is generally an adult site- so lewds and nudes from most content creators. However, some fitness folks use it for fitness shit. I recommend putting implied nudes/lingerie pics/bikini pics etc on your main timeline and then offering more explicit content in your private messages. You can set a price per pic or video, which the fan must pay before they can view it. This is a great way to earn extra cash aside from relying on tips and subscriptions.
Q: How do I find subscribers?
A: this is an excellent question and it’s one that I haven’t figured out completely, either. I made my OF account at the encouragement of a medtwitter member who had been buying my nudes for a while, and then it sat for a few weeks without me logging in again. I forgot about it until I went on a feminist rant about sex work and then accidentally mentioned it and my DMs were suddenly flooded. Since then, I have made another twitter solely dedicated to sex work and kink shit. The bulk of my subscribers come from word of mouth among men who already subscribe or through my main twitter, which works for me because I am anonymous on there as well. I have heard that reddit is a good place to attract followers too. I personally do not allow people that know my real name, workplace, etc. know about my OF.
Q: Do you think this could have repercussions in the future?
A: It absolutely could, which is why I stress anonymizing yourself so much. I personally know two women who were fired from their jobs, one being a lawyer, for softcore porn they did several years before. One lost her marriage over it as well. You absolutely are taking a risk, so be careful and be smart about it. While I believe that sex work IS work and should be seen as a legitimate way to make money and thrive, most of the world does not. Always keep that in mind.
Q: How did you get started with sex work?
A: When I was probably around 15, I started going to rave parties with friends, back when warehouse parties were a thing and EDM and house music weren’t mainstream. I saw the girls dancing in their sexy outfits and knew I wanted to do that eventually, so I signed up for a go-go dancing class during my senior year of high school (18 years old) and ended up on a dance team that worked with many rave promoters and concert venues to provide their dance entertainment. I branched out to nightclubs and overall had an amazing experience- I danced for 7 years. While it didn’t involve taking my clothes off like stripping does, I learned a ton about sex work and became very comfortable with my body.
Q: What if I don’t feel comfortable doing something that someone asks?
A: If you don’t feel comfortable, don’t do it. This is your body, your platform, your playing field, and YOU are in control of what you do with that. Never let someone pressure you into doing something you don’t want to, even if there’s a big price tag. Also never give out your personal information to someone on OF, because not everyone has the same intentions as you. Be safe. Be smart. Be empowered to do what you want to do and make money doing shit you were probably doing anyway (sending nudes to fuckboys for free).

Thess vs Arguments
So I tried Senua’s Sacrifice but I’m going to have to wait until after dark for that because my blinds don’t work for shit and it’s too bright to play at the moment.
I should note that it gets dark at 9pm in this country.
So I went to play my stupid Zen typing time-management game for awhile, and then I peeked at Facebook, where I got into an argument on a comment thread attached to an article a friend of mine linked. Basically this individual was ranting and raving about ... well, I’m pretty sure that friend of mine doesn’t live in Washington, DC, or I’d wonder if this was Trump under an assumed name. You know, we MUST get people back to work or people are going to staaaaaaaaaaarve!
Yeah, with the current system as it stands. I mentioned that this is the issue with capitalism taken to the horrible lengths it has been, and that maybe we shouldn’t be propping up a system that’s giving trillions to corporations instead of the people at a time when people are struggling to survive on multiple levels. That maybe we should just tax the billionaires and make them slightly less wealthy, and have enough money to pay for helping people through this time without making them prop up this fallacy of an economy and incidentally killing people.
At which point this guy starts yelling at me about how democratic socialism would lead to no production because no one would be incentivised to work or they’d be rounded up to work in the fields like slaves and REMEMBER VENEZUELA!
To which I replied that not all countries are Venezuela, that universal income has been trialed quite successfully, that I never said that rescue measures had to be permanent, nor did I advocate pure socialism, but that I suggested maybe making billionaires actually pay their taxes instead of evading them, and using that money for the people that make a country - because it’s people that make countries, not corporations. Also that those changes I recommended would only be to his benefit because he will never be one of those billionaires.
I may also have said something about not quite being rude enough to ask how that boot he’s licking tastes.
Because. You know. I can be quite erudite but I can also be a petty, petty bitch.
So now I’m going to stay the hell off Facebook for at least a day. Because dude’s gonna have a meltdown. Whoopsie.
Well, at least I have the good sense to stay out of arguments on Reddit.

prompt: "unrequited". hurt me ❤️
(I don’t know about hurting you bb. But here you go. Unrequited. ft blind & confused Even and bold and confident Isak)
“Truth or dare.”
Even is on the floor, his long legs folded in front of him and hurting a bit around the knees. A bottle is pointing at him and a drunk girl is laughing to his right. It’s Friday night.
Even hasn’t done Friday nights in a while, but Elias insisted it would do him some good. So he ends up on the floor playing truth or dare with a bunch of drunk kids he barely knows.
“Dare,” Even mouthes, much to everyone’s delight.
“Kiss Sara!” Some girl orders him. “With tongue!”
Even has no idea who Sara is. He looks to the only familiar face around the circle they’ve been forming for over fifteen minutes now. Isak.
He’s Sana’s friend from school and Even first met him at the Bakkoush house a few months ago. He’s easy to talk to, funny, smart, confident, great at FIFA, too great actually. Even enjoys his company despite barely enjoying anyone’s lately.
Isak subtly gestures to the girl to Even’s left with his eyes, the presumed Sara that he has to kiss. Even gets on his knees and pecks her forehead.
He gets booed. He laughs it off. They forgive him because they claim to know that he just went through a “bad break-up“. It’s not even true. He’s on good terms with Sonja. But he’ll take it, glad they’re not making him kiss the random girl on the mouth.
He sits back down and gives Isak a grateful look. Isak nods and it’s like they have their very own secret language. Elias jokingly commented on it before, and Even has been careful not to use it since to avoid specifically this.
This. The subtle flush currently spreading on Isak’s cheeks. The flush that always spreads on his cheeks and down the back of his neck when they have a moment. Even looks away.
This is bad.
Even knows Isak is gay and that he’s not ashamed of it. And he admires him for being so comfortable in his skin. He really does. But Elias said that he thinks Isak has a crush on him. And Even doesn’t wish to lead him on. He doesn’t wish to get tangled up in any sort of drama this year.
But then again, it’s probably all in his head. Isak probably doesn’t care about him. It’s probably the alcohol making his cheeks pink and his stare tender and-
“Isak, truth or dare?”
Even didn’t even notice that someone spinned the bottle again.
“Truth,” Isak replies, chuckling.
“Boring!” Someone shouts.
“Whatever.”
“True or False: you like someone around this circle?”
Even stills, tightness in his chest. He’s the only other guy in the circle. Isak is gay. He’s the only option. This is it.
Isak laughs it off like it’s nothing, brings his beer to his mouth, then chugs it.
Loud shrieks, cheers, and laughter erupt around the room. And it’s almost as loud as in Even’s brain. This is everything he was hoping to avoid.
“Oh my god! I knew it! You like Even, don’t you?! Don’t you, huh?!” Some girl named Eva nearly jumps on Isak’s lap.
.
“It’s true. I like you.” Isak tells him very matter-of-factly on their way home. They usually walk home together given that their apartments are close.
Even is nearly sucking on a cigarette, his cheeks hollowing while Isak stares at his side profile, his hands in his pockets.
Even doesn’t reply.
“Does it bother you?” Isak asks.
“That you like me?”
“Yeah.”
“No.”
They walk and the air feels brutally cold on Even’s skin.
“But you don’t feel the same way,” Isak says next. It’s not a question but it sounds like one.
“I don’t swing that way. Sorry.”
“Oh,” Isak gasps. “I thought-. Hm.” A pause. “Never mind.”
“You heard things.” Even concludes.
“I did,” says Isak. “Is it not true?”
“If you’re asking if it happened, the answer is yes,” Even shrugs. He’s had this conversation before. It doesn’t bother him as much anymore.
“That’s the definition of swinging that way, Even.”
“I didn’t mean for it to happen. So no, it isn’t.”
Isak snorts. He actually does. “It just slipped into your mouth?”
“I’m bipolar.”
“I know that. What’s the correlation?”
“Sometimes when you’re bipolar, you do things you don’t mean. Like hurt people you care about and break things and steal money and-”
“And suck dick?” Isak interrupts him.
Well.
“Yeah I guess.”
“Are you saying that gayness is a symptom of your bipolar?”
“It was an isolated incident. So like. Whatever.”
It should be awkward and tense. But it isn’t. Even doesn’t feel much. He feels numb all the time. It’s almost suffocating.
“So I take it that you didn’t enjoy it?” Isak asks eventually.
“What? Sucking dick?”
“Yeah.”
“No, not really.”
“Okay.”
They walk a bit further, and Even is surprised upon realizing that he doesn’t mind Isak’s company after his confession. Not even one bit.
“Are we still playing FIFA tomorrow?” Isak asks.
“Yeah.”
“Cool.”
“Cool,” Even echoes.
Isak turns around, starts walking backward and pulls his hoodie over his soft curly hair.
“That’s it? You’re not gonna say anything else?”
“What do you want me to say?”
“Aren’t straight guys supposed to freak out when a gay guy says he likes them?” Isak teases.
“Well, let’s say I don’t blame you for liking me,” Even teases right back.
“Don’t get cocky,” Isak shoves him, laughing. If he can laugh about it, then his feelings weren’t that deep. This is good.
“Isn’t that what you like about me?”
“Your fake confidence? No.”
“Oh yeah? What is it then?” Even jokes. It’s not very nice, but Isak seems to be enjoying the banter.
“Your blowjob lips,” Isak says with a smile. “Quite a waste now that we’re talking about it.”
It’s Even’s turn to shove him now. “You’ve got a filthy mouth. Has anyone ever told you that?”
“Hmm. Yes,” Isak teases again, feigning a moan. “Make me shut my filthy mouth, daddy.”
“You’re a fucking riot, huh.” Even laughs.
Isak laughs too, stretches his arms, sways his hips a little bit, his steps uneven. He looks so free, so carefree. He’s lovely under the moonlight like this.
“I’m just trying to cheer you up,” says Isak.
“What makes you think I need cheering?”
“Dunno. Just a hunch. You look like shit. No offense.”
“One would think I’m the one who just got rejected.”
“Too soon, asshole.”
They laugh. Even doesn’t think much when he wraps his arm around his shoulders as they walk. Because if Isak is hurting, he will tell him.
His feelings probably weren’t that deep.
.
They play FIFA and hang out at Sana’s house and even see each other at Uni for lunch. It’s no big deal. Isak does most of the talking, ranting about his classes or raving about the latest true crime documentary he watched on Netflix or synthesizing some conspiracy theory he read on Reddit. Isak talks and Even watches, nods, laughs. Isak is funny and smart. He’s his friend. It’s no big deal.
Isak invites him to parties thrown by his department and Even goes because it’s no big deal. And they might always end the night laughing over joints instead of finding someone to take home, but it’s fine. Even doesn’t like to do hook-ups and he’s not looking to jump into a relationship with some girl anyway.
“What about that guy over there? Should I go for it?” Isak asks him, always asks him before hitting on someone like he needs Even’s permission.
“You can do whatever you want, Isak.”
“Yes, but do you think he’s hot? I need a straight guy’s opinion.”
He’s so full of shit. But it still makes Even laugh. “He’s not as hot as you,” he tells him because that’s what he wants to hear. Isak looks smug.
“I won’t hook up with him then,” he says.
“If you’re looking for someone hotter than you, you’re probably gonna end up celibate for the rest of your life.”
“You realize that this isn’t very heterosexual of you? Right?” Isak teases, leans in a bit closer than he normally would.
“I’m just stating facts.”
“No. You’re flirting with me. It’s embarrassing.”
“Me? Flirting with you? Where? Show me where.”
“You’re a literal child.” Isak rolls his eyes but he’s smiling.
“Show me where I flirted. Show me!”
Even doesn’t know when he put his hands on him, tickling him, but Isak’s body feels sturdy yet tender under his fingers. He’s all muscles and soft skin. Even wants to keep touching. Even is confused.
Isak puts his hands on his, brings him closer until they’re chest to chest, pressed against the wall.
“You want me to show you where? Hm?” Isak whispers into his ear and it’s filthy. He slides his right hand between them and cups him between his legs. “Here. Right here.”
Even gasps.
“Is this for me, baby?” Isak tilts his head and smiles before shoving him gently.
“Fuck off, yeah?” Even chuckles nervously then awkwardly runs a hand through his hair.
“Are you always half hard or only when I’m around?”
“Stop that right now.”
“You should probably get yourself checked. Your symptoms are showing, Bech Næsheim.”
Then he walks away, all smug and proud while Even erupts behind him. Fuck.
“I won’t let you get away with it,” Even follows him outside.
“Oh yeah? What are you gonna do? Suck me off?”
“Shut up!” Even pulls jumps on his back and brings both of them down.
They wrestle on the grass like idiots, end up with weeds in their mouths, and laughter in their chests. And Isak lets him wrap his arms around his shoulder on their way home.
“True or false: you had a good time with me tonight,” Isak asks.
“True.”
It’s no big deal.
.
“Is it true you’re hooking up with Isak?” Elias asks him one day.
“Huh?! No, we’re friends. Why?”
“Didn’t he confess his feelings to you back at that party?”
“Yeah and I told him I wasn’t interested. No big deal.”
“Yet you’re always together, touching and shit.”
“What’s your point?” Even asks, annoyed and irritated now.
“Are you sure you’re just friends? I mean to him. Did you make it clear to him? Sana won’t forgive me if you hurt him.”
“Hurt him?” Even snorts. “Isak doesn’t give a single shit. I don’t think anyone can hurt him.”
“Don’t be a dick,” Elias warns him. “You only see what he allows you to see. You should know better.”
Right. Ouch. Even used to be a better human being, once upon a time. Before all the walls and all the smoke.
“I’m not doing anything. And he doesn’t like me anymore. He’s over it. We’re just bros.”
.
It turns out that he’s wrong. Even mentions it jokingly to tease Isak about his tendency to change his mind like the wind. And Isak immediately rectifies his claim.
“I still like you. I may change my mind about plans for the evening every two seconds, but I still like you. I’d still drop on my knees right now if you asked me.”
Even is floored. It’s the most genuine reaction anyone has gotten out of him in a while. He doesn’t know what to say.
“We’re gonna need some rules, then.”
.
His rules are simple but cruel and dumb. Isak can’t say that he likes him anymore. They can’t joke about dicks or dropping on their knees. They can’t touch. They can’t be each other’s dates to parties. They can’t hang out alone.
It’s the dumbest list Even has ever come up with. But Isak doesn’t mind.
.
Even breaks all of the rules first.
He breaks them because he misses wrapping his arms around him. He misses cuddling him at the back of empty buses. He misses having a hand in his hair. And he’s not being very nice or considerate, but Isak isn’t particularly opposed to it. When Even opens his arms, Isak walks into them. It’s simple. They’re simple.
Isak is overflowing with affection to give and Even is suffocating from his blinding need for it. It’s simple. It’s a win-win arrangement.
Isak cuddles him when Even looks weary. He welcomes him between his legs when Even is feeling down and Isak is sitting on top of a short wall while they wait for their tram, running his hands up and down his back the way Even likes it. He plays with his hair when Even is trying to fall asleep in the library but can’t.
Isak is always up for it. Always giving him what he needs without asking for anything in return. Even wonders if Isak feels anything at all.
“True or false: if I were a girl, you’d be in love with me right now.” Isak asks him one night after a party. They’re sharing a bed. They’re drunk. It’s late. Even has no idea whose room or apartment this is.
“True.”
Isak pecks him on the mouth and Even opens up for him like he’s been waiting for this. Even breathes him in, slips his tongue between his lips, moans down his throat, puts his hands all over him. Then when it gets too much, he pushes him away.
“I don’t want to lead you on,” he pants.
“You put your tongue in my mouth,” Isak says with hurt in his voice. He’s never sounded hurt before.
“I wanted to know what it would feel like when I’m not manic. Don’t knock it until you try it, right?”
“And how did it feel?”
“Like nothing.”
.
Isak starts seeing some guy, Jakob or something. He stops touching Even. He stops cuddling him and giving him the physical comfort he needs and craves.
None of this is fair but watching Isak with the new object of his affections makes him crumble on the inside.
“True or false: you miss me.” Isak asks when he approaches him at the bar. Even has been staring at him all night like some possessive loser. They haven’t talked since that night a month ago.
“As a friend. I do.”
“I miss you, too.”
“I’m sorry for what I did.”
“It’s fine. I get it. You can’t feel what you don’t feel. I’m over it,” says Isak.
And I can’t unfeel what I feel.
“You’re over me? Really? So soon?” Even teases.
“Oh yeah. Have you seen Jakob’s mouth? He’s very talented, if you know what I mean.”
It doesn’t make Even laugh, but he lets it go. He lets him go.
.
Even is in a funk. He feels emptier than usual, a bit more numb, like his mind is shutting off on itself.
He starts missing class, then sinks a bit deeper. He goes to his psychiatrist, asks about adjusting his dosage maybe. He feels down but it’s a different kind of down. He’s not sure.
“Heart troubles maybe?” His mother teases when he tells her that he has no idea what’s wrong with him.
“Don’t be ridiculous,” Even chuckles.
.
Even doesn’t except him to show up, especially after one ‘I feel weird’ text. But he’s not surprised when he hears Isak greet his mother at the door.
He doesn’t move, keeps his back facing the door, and waits for Isak to join him, maybe.
But Jakob.
Isak cuddles him, spoons him, presses his nose to the back of his neck and breathes until Even feels steady again.
“What’s wrong?” Isak whispers.
“Your dick is pressing against my back.”
“Shut up,” he laughs. And Even loves feeling Isak laugh against his back while he holds him this close.
“Jakob won’t be too thrilled.”
“I don’t care about Jakob,” Isak breathes against his nape, tightening his hold around his stomach.
“What about his talented mouth?”
“I thought you were feeling down but you’re actually just fine,” Isak groans behind him, untwining his arms and beginning to move away. “I’m leaving.”
Even wraps his hand around his forearm and keeps him there.
“Stay. Please.”
Isak lies back down.
“What’s up? What’s going on?”
Even thinks. His mind is reeling and he’s struggling to understand how he’s feeling, struggling to make sense out of everything.
“Remember the stuff I said about my mania making me do gay things?”
Isak stills behind him. “I do.”
“I don’t know if that’s true anymore.”
“Your mania makes you do heterosexual things now?”
Even shoves him with his elbow. “Will you listen to me?!”
“Fine. Fine. Speak.”
“Hm. What if I really want to kiss guys? What if that’s actually what I want? What if it’s not just a symptom or whatever? What if it isn’t my brain playing tricks on me?”
Isak is quiet behind him, quiet but sturdy.
“Sonja always said that I only start having thoughts like that when I’m about to slip. And I always stopped myself, except for that time I literally went down on that guy who told everyone. But like. What if it’s unrelated? What if I’ve just been repressing myself? What if I’m full of shit? I’m so fucking lost.”
There’s a pause. Even catches his breath while Isak thinks.
“True of false: you’re just talking out of your ass because you no longer have my undivided attention.”
“Isak, I’m serious.”
“I’m not sure what you want me to say, Even.”
“What you think, maybe?”
“What I think? I think that saying homosexuality is a symptom of mental illness is fucked up, and that it’s been hurting me all along, but I brushed it off because I thought you only said it to get rid of me and keep me at arm’s length.”
“What?” Even tries to turn in his arms, alarmed. “Isak-“
“But you’ve been thinking it and believing it all along because people put shit in your head when you were at your lowest. So I can’t even be mad at you for being so fucking repressed and blind.”
“Isak, what are you- let me-“ Even tries to turn around and take him in, but fails again, Isak holding him closer than before, so much closer.
“You kissed me the other night and my whole chest caught fire. I felt like I was gonna explode, but it meant nothing to you. You literally used the word nothing. That hurt so much.”
“Isak- I didn’t-“
“And now you summon me to talk about your feelings when you’ve been stomping all over mine for months now. You ask me to help you figure out your sexuality crisis when I’m still trying to get over that awful night. It’s a bit selfish of you, don’t you think?”
Isak leaves and Even feels like the ceiling has just crumbled on top of him. He’s been hurting Isak all along. He’s hurt him all along.
.
“Truth or dare, Isak?”
Even is sitting cross-legged on the floor with a number of people he doesn’t know and the one person he does know.
“Dare.”
“Kiss Even.”
Isak chugs his entire beer, never sparing Even a glance, like he’d rather die from intoxication than kiss Even again. He needs to fix this. He has to.
“Truth or dare, Even?”
“Dare.”
“Kiss Isak.”
Isak rolls his eyes and goes on an angry rant. “What’s with this dumb and lame dare? Why can’t you suggest something original and cool like a prank or setting some shit on fire. Why is it always fucking kissing? Like who cares?! why-”
Isak stops because Even is in front of him, barely breathing too.
“May I?” Even asks and he sounds so nervous and stupid. He just wants to do this right. Isak nods despite the frown on his face.
And Even dives right in, cups his face in both hands and kisses him like he means it, kisses it like it’s something, like it’s not ‘nothing’, like it’s everything. And Isak resists at first but he parts his lips two close-mouthed kisses in, and he’s panting by the fourth, and his hands are in Even’s hair by the fifth. And they’re laughing like idiots by the time everyone around them starts complaining and asking them to stop. But there’s no stopping. How can they stop?
Isak stands up first because Even’s knees feel weak under him, and he drags him by the hand down the stairs, and Even’s heart is beating fast so fast.
“True or false: it wasn’t ‘nothing’. It didn’t feel like nothing when you kissed me.” Isak asks, his eyes twinkling but insecurity still roaming them. Even knows. He knows him.
Even kisses him again, this time with tongue. He kisses him deep and slow, like he’s trying to get him to melt into the wall, and he feels Isak’s knees buckle and a throaty sound escape his mouth. goddamn.
“I lied to you that night,” Even breathes hard, and saying the words out loud feel weird. He was lying to himself as well. “It felt like everything.”
“Yeah?”
“Yeah. Everything.”
“Romantic. Your mouth is showing lots of talent already,” Isak jokes, and he’s so lovely.
So lovely, Even can’t help but lean in with a smile and kiss him again, and again, and again until Isak’s snapback is on the floor and his hair is a mess, and Even’s mouth is red and buzzing under Isak’s thumb.
“True or false: you forgive me?” Even asks.
“Depends how this night ends,” Isak teases, throwing both arms around Even’s neck and bringing him closer. “My turn.”
“Your turn?”
“True or false: you like me too?” Isak asks, and there’s that vulnerability in his voice again. Like he’s not sure what this means to Even, like Even could kiss him for days and Isak still wouldn’t know until he tells him with words. This ridiculous boy.
“False: I love you.”
The end.

The story of Discord is the story of platform shifts. Jason Citron started his career in game development studios creating some of titles for Xbox and Play Station 2 (that’s how old he is 😂) that you probably never heard of 😬. Platform Shift: Mobile In the 2008, the “app store” was just announced and Jason thought this would be the perfect time to take the entrepreneurial plunge. His thesis was that with the launch of mobile gaming on the iPhone he would get “free distribution” if he manages to become a “launch title” (ie develop his game before the app store is live). After all, whenever a new console comes out, there is always new set of games that offer a new kind of experiences that are “native” to that console and new gaming behaviors are born….this was a once in a life opportunity. Jason raised some seed capital from the uncle of one of his roommates and was off to the races building Aurora feint. He pulled off being a launch title and Aurora feint was one of only 50 games that were available on the app store on the blessed day.
The Good News: it got rave reviews…partly because of the limited competition at the time, but also because Jason was just an extremely talented game developer. The Bad News: the business model didn’t really work. Aurora feint’s Business Model The Business model for the game was very similar to other stuff that Jason had worked on in the past. He gave the game away for free and build a premium version that had multiplayer dynamics (such as competing with friends on leaderboards...competing in ghost matches....etc)….this was a very common behaviour for PC….but what he didn’t realize at the time was that with new platforms…comes new expectations and subsequently new consumer behaviors. The $8 price tag (probably out of thin air) to access those social features didn’t really work. As time went by, and more games were build around the iPhone, and the price tag was anchored at $0.99 - $4.99. Jason and his 5 person company made a meager $30k in revenue from this game….a far cry from a “hit” game.
The pivot to OpenFeint One day, while discussing with the another founder, Citron realized that the iPhone did not have Xbox live in it, but their Aurora Feint 2 did have a similar feature. From my very shallow understanding Xbox live is just a platform that allows gamers to play multiplayer games, communicate with each and discover new games. In an act of desperation, Jason decided to spin out those social features and sell them to other developers, in an attempt to become equivalent the Xbox live for iPhone….the only problem was he didn’t really have any money to pay his engineers let alone hire new ones to build this in time…or anyone for that matter….to get Jason put up a landing page...photoshopped a couple of fake screenshots ...the message was "xbox live for mobile." He convinced Techcrunch to cover “the launch” and took that mailing list to investors…sprinkled some “vision” on it and raised a bridge round. He used the money from that round to hire 10 new developers to actually build the product The $104m payout
Over the next two years Openfeint took over Jason’s life. As someone whose life revolved around gaming, I can’t even imagine how it must have felt like to build the entire infrastructure for social gaming on the iPhone. By 2010, Openfeint had more than 10 million users and was powering 30 of the top 100 games on the App Store. Next year the company was acquired by a Japanese company (named GREE…but thats not really important) for a whopping $104 million (for reference the company ever raised $3m). When Jason signed on the dotted line, it was under the expectation that he will now have the resources to build the Xbox live for mobile. But as with many acquisitions…the story took a sour turn after the deal closed… Rinse and repeat (for iPad) Jason took a 7 months hiatus after being booted out of his own company. Jason took the time-off playing video games….A LOT of video games. Around that time, in 2013 the iPad was in its first years of inception and slowly making it to the main stream. While everyone saw iPad as a tablet, Jason saw it as a new platform shift for gaming…specifically for playing team-based games. He hypothesized that the iPad would make these kind of multi-player games more accessible and that the only problem was that there wasn’t enough high quality games being produced. Ready for round 2…Jason started another company…this time named Hammer and Chisel. Hammer and Chisel was a game development house that focused exclusively on creating high-quality iPad games. The vision for Hammer and Chisel was to replicate the Openfeint model for iPad. Fates Forever
After a few hit-and-miss with launching different games (3 to be specific), Jason had Another ONE(idea) up his sleeve…this time for a game called Fates forever. In a true Sell-Build-Ship manner that we can come to expect from Jason, instead of putting in the hours to build a game and see it crumble in-front of his eyes, he, instead, chunked up the art ....and started posting it on reddit along with explaining how the “game worked”(there was no game at the time…just some art). He took feedback from and incorporated it into into the art and ultimately the game mechanics. Six months later, Fates Forever shipped to the app store, and yet again didn’t really live up to the expectations of Jason or the team. The pivot to Discord
Jason was going around in circles trying to figure out how he can “fix” Fates Forever. In a conversation with Stanislav (Stan) Vishnevskiy (a developer at Hammer and Chisel then and cofounder of Discord later) Jason was complaining to Stan that the chat experience on Faints Forever sucked. He then went on a rant explaining how the ideal communication platform SHOULD work for developers. And so the OG idea of Discord was born. The idea was building Teamspeak meet skype. To take a step back Teamspeak was one of the more popular tools at the time used by gamers who played team vs team games. The problem with Teamspeak, at least from Stan’s prespective, was that to start a conversation on Teamspeak users had to download the app, pay for it and share their IP address (IP address is kind of like your mailing address) with other team members. Cutting through the noise Jason and Stan started building the first version of Discord as a side project within the company. First 20 customers The first 20 customers for Discord were friends, friends and friends. For the first 5 months, Jason and Stan were building Discord and hammering their gamer friends to use it. Their friends signed up but weren’t actually really using the product. Everytime they asked them why, they highlighted that they needed this feauture or that feature. Stan and Jason would go build it and come back to them…they got excited for a minute and then demanded more features. This loop kept going on and on and at some point the team had spent 3 weeks not shipping anything, they figured that maybe Discord just wasn’t as important as they had previously thought. First 200-300 customers Those 3 weeks where yet another reminder to Jason of how important distribution was. He figured that gaming communities were far and wide on the internet and that the product was at a point where it could be stress tested by more than just his unappreciative friends. So Jason and Stan got one of the friends to post in the Final Fantasy 14(a popular game at the name) subreddit. They reason they narrowed down to this one specific game was that there was a new expansion (i.e new features, content..etc) coming out which meant that was a lot of anticipation, speculation and excitement about the new release on reddit.
Their friend posted a simple link saying “"Hey...did anyone try this new voiceover IP app called discord [link to a voice chat].“ Jason and Stan immediately jumped onto the voice chat and started talking to anyone who showed up. The Redditors would go back, say "I just talked to the developers there, they're pretty cool," and send even more people to Discord. That kind of kicked the snowball off the top of the mountain.
Fun fact: Discord now claims this day (May 13, 2015) as their “launch day” First 1000 customers For the next 1000 customers, Jason and Stan focused all their product work on just 3 games, all of which had upcoming expansions (i.e new releases) in an attempt to make integrations with these games as seamless as possible. They then did the same Reddit routine, got a friend to post on the game’s subreddit asking if member had tried using Discord and accompanying that message a link to a voice chat where Jason and Stan were waiting to meet and greet and answer any questions anyone had. To double down on that strategy, Jason and Stand started doing some 1:1 promotion with “guilds” of these games. Guilds are “an organized group of video game players that regularly play together in one or more multiplayer games. Many guilds take part in gaming competitions, but some guilds are just small gaming squads consisting of friends. “

Played the game and my thoughts about it are below the cut because I go on a bit of a rant...
TL;DR version: I love the true aspect of the game but it isn’t really my style and over all I was disappointed by the ‘psychological horror’ and ‘gore’ parts of it. (relatively spoiler free, I don’t mention any of the major twists or story plotlines, just the general ‘extra-ness’ of what makes the game intriguing)
So... I got the game on Steam and played it because a lot of people were talking about it and how awesome of a game it was...
I hate to say it but, I was disappointed in it...
I get why people are raving about it, I do think the reveals and secrets in the games are amazing! I can honestly say that I’m blown away by what the creators were able to do with the game. Without going into spoiler territory, all the hidden/surprise aspects of the game, are really awesome! I have read all about the intricate details and hints that people were able to find- SO MUCH information... I wouldn’t have had any idea of where to start with that kind of game. I don’t know anything about game files and translating text... I love complicated storylines but I’m very simple when it comes to *gameplay*... if it isn’t blatantly obvious then odds are, I won’t know what to do... If I was left to my own devices, I wouldn’t know about a majority of DDLC’s secrets... because they have to do with things that are outside of normal gameplay... I guarantee that I would’ve missed about 90% of the point, all the underlying DDLC elements, swoosh, right over my head. But when I looked up the game and I learned about all the ‘extra’ elements, again, I am SOOOOO impressed with what they were able to achieve! But lmao, if you were expecting me to understand it and delve into that on my own???? You’ll be waiting a long time for that... I suck at that kind of meta stuff, truly. I wouldn’t’ve even /thought/ to look into the things people were finding secrets in!
That being said... I saw the tags for DDLC and I saw all the warnings that appeared in the game... and that’s where I was disappointed. Psychological horror? After playing games like BTD and TDDUP... that game wasn’t that ‘edgy’ at all imo. Now, that’s not to say that the trigger warnings aren’t needed! Indeed, pay attention to the trigger warnings and play the game with caution, I’m not saying that they lied... just that /I/ had higher expectations for what was going to happen when I got to the ‘shocking’ part of the game. I was so bored... For the average gamer and especially for someone that generally plays ‘regular’ dating sims, I’m sure the triggering scenes were very /shocking/, I can understand that... but for all the hype I was seeing, I was expecting more. There was nothing to the characters that made me invested in them (Okay, I’ll admit, I was invested in Sayori and I do think they did her storyline right), there was no history... Things go from cutesy to chaotic in just a moment but that doesn’t make it psychological horror... I wasn’t twisted around psychologically by the reveals we were given... they were just /shock value/ (hence my earlier wording...). OMG look at this surprise scene that you’d never expect to see in a ‘dating sim’ game!!! Gasp! What surprise! Even the ‘extra’ part of the game, the fun secret stuff... that isn’t what I’d categorize as psychological horror... I’d categorize it as a mind fuck but ‘mind fuck’ and ‘psychological horror’ don’t mean the same thing. They often go hand-in-hand but pft, that doesn’t make them synonymous with each other, that’s all I’m saying. Like I’ve said, the scenes themselves should be approached with caution, they aren’t ‘silly’ by any means but... when I think of games that are psychological horror, I think of the part in the Resident Evil 7 DLC, 21. How your POV is a character that’s strapped to a chair, forced to play a game of 21 with another innocent victim and each time you lose, a finger gets chopped off. At the end of the game, you’re praying that you don’t lose another finger but in order to keep your fingers, you have to pray that the other INNOCENT player has a worse hand than you... you get to hear that player scream in terror and then in pain, you hear them beg and there isn’t anything to do because it’s you or them. You want to win because you don’t want to die but winning means you’re forced to watch/listen to someone else get fucked up. That’s deeply psychological. Even with BTD and TDDUP... those games weren’t overly graphic (in terms of *video graphics/frames*, they were mostly static scenes that depended on the /dialogue/ to get the point across, not a visual ‘movie’ with sound effects)... we didn’t *see* a lot of horrible violence unlike in RE7 but it was still psychological because there were visceral reactions that we read the character going through, the descriptions did the scenes justice and there were scenarios that just... they were designed to make you go “if I was in this situation... could I really survive this??? Would this break me???” That’s the point of psychological horror to me. This game completely missed the mark and it just felt like shock value with a lack of depth. Period.
I’ll even say that the ‘dating sim’ aspect of the game was bland... (I know that wasn’t even the point but, hear me out)... I was SPOILED by BTD and even TDDUP... I was expecting choices! I was expecting things to be at least a little broader... I was expecting more than 2 (3 depending on what you count as an ending) endings... I was expecting my choices to matter in the end game. And they don’t... The story is horribly bland and I was in agony as I tried to play through and get to the interesting parts!!! And even after I did get to the interesting parts... I was still SO BORED! It wasn’t because I knew what was coming either, I can know how a game ends and still be excited and enthralled when I’m playing it if it has a great story or good gameplay. I don’t play a lot of dating sims, but I realize that the dialogue isn’t always the greatest... some of them are just blah blah blah and let me see animated boobies (not all of them, I know but the ones with ‘boring’ dialogue can be described like that I think).... but it should at least be a little engaging... Daddy Dating Simulator at least had the ‘horrible dad puns’ kind of humor to make players laugh and groan as they went out and about. I dunno... I was let down... if I had come across this game cold turkey with no background knowledge... I never would’ve made it to the ‘interesting’ part because I would’ve stopped playing... and like I said, even *knowing* that the game was going to get ‘interesting’... it was still so hard to play and it still fell flat... When we replay the first day, even with the quirks, it’s too bland to hold my attention, I just didn’t care.
I can write a guide of the general gameplay aspects if people really want me to but... there are only 3 endings so.... is that really what you want? A lot of the game is pretty random so there’s only so much I can help you with.... If you’re looking for help with the ‘extra’ aspects of the game, I cannot help you with that, I’m sorry... Check the wiki and the reddit pages because I have no clue where to even start with that stuff.

Problematic and Proud: Instagram Artist Beebosloth
Alright, I tried posting this to Reddit but that whole website is fucked so. Tumblr is crazy toxic and I want absolutely nothing to do with this website lmao, I just know if it’s posted here, it will show up in google search results.
Alright, so there's this artist on Instagram. Nothing new and unique there. In fact, there isn't really anything special about this particular prick at all. Rather, he more-so represents a larger cancerous growth within Instagram; entitlement, and toxicity.
I know, I know, "Hey dumbass, that's the entirety of the internet." Yeah, you're damn right it is. Does that make it any less gross? Any less pathetic? These humans are still humans, they know what they're doing.
So what exactly is Beebosloth? Unless you've come here from googling the name followed by some key-word synonyms of "problematic," you're probably unfamiliar with his presence on earth. @Beebosloth (Stan Osipov) is a pretty general artist on Instagram, pumping out at least one sketch a day; his works are namely skeletal, usually black and white, usually accompanied with an odd little strip of slogan text which rarely fits the image subject. People have gotten his works tattooed, he's almost up to 300k followers now, etc etc, he's doing alright for himself.
If there's one thing that millennials and gen-Z kids' insane internet vigilante rampages have taught us, it's that successful people can be, and often are, problematic as all hell. Beebosloth is no exception.
I had been following the artist for close to 3 years, giving him general support through likes on his posts, but also going an extra mile in standing up for him for 2 problems he had been facing repeatedly as an artist. First, due to the general popular aesthetic of his art, his works were getting reposted a lot, often without credit. There would even be imitation accounts which would post nothing but his art, essentially pretending to be him. I repeatedly took it upon myself to give them the ol' trollish finger wag, in an unlikely hope they'd better their behavior or at least let passersby know who the real artist was.
Another problem he was facing was Instagram support; (Ooh what a surprise, when has that ever happened to anyone)? The way he went on about it had us all believing that Instagram would never punish those who committed these unethical acts. And that was the entirety of the problem at first; not punishing other people who had done him wrong. He made several posts and stories complaining about this, usually enticing his followers to go out and do his bidding in this regard. Then . . there was an incident, and the first instance that really alerted me to Beebosloth's behavior.
This is a man who spends half his posts whining because he refuses to learn how internet-related copyright laws work. Even though with the sheer amount of trials and failures he's experienced, he should be an expert on them by now. A dude who claims every 5 seconds that he's getting his work stolen . . . which is why this next part is such a kicker.
I wish I could remember the time exactly, (but unfortunately I'm not pursuing a degree in problematic Instagram artists, and these details have just really just slipped my mind). It was March; I believe of this year. I scrolled through Instagram like normal, came upon a new post by beebosloth, and noticed that this one had about twice the typical amount of attention attached to it. Osipov had posted a doodle of a skeleton arm, holding up a ticket which read "1 WAY TICKET TO HELL." Pretty simple, pretty basic. And the next picture on the slide was the exact same thing, only this time, it wasn't in his style. I believe he also included screenshots of an incredibly petty argument between him and the other artist, in which she accused him of stealing the design from her. - In the caption he's ranting, he's raving, Instagram copyrighted his version and removed it. He does something else too . . . .
Now, these images are the exact damn same, I wish I could find her original work but it has really just disappeared. After what Stan Osipov does next, it wouldn't really surprise me if she deleted her Instagram to cut out the toxicity of this whole situation. And here's the most important part to consider of all of this; not beeblosloth's cruel, immature, reaction, not his history of sending his followers to spend their own personal time being terrible to other users on his behalf, this-
The artist who claimed Osipov had stolen her work- posted it first. Actually I believe she posted it a few weeks before beeblosloth ever did. And keep in mind- the only feasible difference between these two photos is the art style. They are exact same in every possible detail. Now, unfortunately, at the time I was a member of beebosloth's cult following. I really made up any possible excuse to believe that somehow, regardless of how impossible and ridiculous it would be, this girl was lying about beebosloth just ripping her off majorly. Even though- she kept the matter private, between themselves. Beebosloth was the one who posted their screenshots, made this a "let's get everyone involved and invoke the wrath of my followers" thing.
In the caption, (or maybe in a new post), Beebosloth then goes on to beckon everyone to draw this image, he starts a #drawthisinyourstyle challenge. He also, of course, incites his followers to go send hate the the original artist. I will admit I stupidly wanted to believe beebosloth was the original artist, and maybe there was some justification to him posting the screenshots, but that part, I didn't like. That was totally unnecessary, even if he was somehow telling the truth.Can we just step back and assess how insane this situation is?
Osipov casually rips off another artist
He gets caught, called out in private, and the image is removed
He reposts his imitation image, as well as the original one, the original artist's details, the screenshots from their private conversation; he tells his followers to go send hate to the original artist because she hurt his feelings by calling him out.
He starts a competition encouraging everyone to rip off her image in their own style. In turn getting dozens of results, making a considerable chunk of the Instagram art scene focus all negative attention on the original artist. "Well if I can't have it, I guess everyone can." (It's almost impossible to find left over images of the challenge, but I remember there being dozens upon dozens of submissions. I will post one I managed to find, as well as the original rip-off by beebosloth.)
And me and his other followers were totally blind to this insane, ridiculous, behavior. I find that all of my red flags that make me dislike people and their actions boil down to a very simple act: Being shitty to another human when they're not doing anything harmful. That's exactly what Osipov was doing here, and I just kind of let him convince me she was the perpetrator.
-- The remainder is an explanation of why I personally snapped out of this and realized he is just a really sleezy dude, it gets a bit petty, read at your own discretion. --
I kept following him after this for months, sending likes to those stolen general commercial T-shirt slogans slapped on a sketch of skeletons doing basic little things. And then one day a few weeks ago, an image crawled across my feed whose incredibly vague message just didn't sit right with me. The image, as you should be able to see here (if I've successfully posted it), contains a scene of someone trying to post something on instagram, and there is an error message which reads "Oops, nobody gives a shit about you or your selfies. Post anyways?"
First reaction: YIKES, who has Stanny got a vendetta against today? The username of the poster was "dumb bitch" to boot. I honestly couldn't tell if he was attempting to shame someone specific, people who just enjoy posting their selfies, women on Instagram, the message was so unclear and the caption wasn't a help to say the least. Actually the caption was . . . The only possible relation the caption could have had to the art itself, was . . . no actually I really can't find a damn thing to relate the two. It had the same weird aggressive energy as the image, but it was essentially an uncomfortable and unwanted pep-talk? No . . . what in the fresh hell would you call that caption?
Anyways, I just assumed the caption didn't really have a direct relation to the art image, as that was something he'd done before and is pretty typical on Instagram. But I still had a problem with the message of the image itself; essentially teaching people to feel bad about posting their selfies, and holding some sense of superiority to those who dare share an image of their face every so often. How incredibly boring, and my reaction posted in the images explains why this personally pissed me off. And if there I talk like someone complaining in an Instagram comment section, well . . . I wonder why.
His reaction - Oh man his reaction, you could not have killed someone's loyalty to you faster if you used their pet in your omelet. I mentioned how I was confused at the caption in the end of what I was saying, and I guess that's the part that offended him?! I haven't a clue how, but he starts in: "The fact that you don't understand leads me to believe that you are still very lost."
. . . . WHAT?! bahahaha! Where the hell did that come from?! My mouth fell agape. First of all, I didn't understand his caption for the shear fact that it was vague and unrelated to the image. Secondly, beebolsoth, where in the shit did I say anything about being lost and remind me when I paid you to be my psychiatrist. He goes on in this ridiculous narcissistic tone, making totally wild claims as if he's known me my whole life and can speak to my personal character, and my mental state. What a creep. Is he playing The Rewired Soul here? I didn't know, I didn't particularly care. The mild entertainment I received from viewing his images wasn't worth being talked to like I've just told freaking Sigmund Freud I don't like the taste of lima beans. After receiving some darling, and for some reason, racist hate from his cult followers, I unfollowed him.
But really, isn't that just one of the cringiest feelings out there? Realizing you've been doing back-flips for someone who would treat you like absolute dirt just for the fun of it? Well, now this experience is documented. Hopefully the true original artist of the "One way ticket to hell" piece is doing alright. And the next time Osipov does something weird and horrible, people can come here, and know it definitely wasn't the first time.

“In Response” by Kenny Dolson
I came across a really great article over on reddit by Kenny Dolson, a Level 1 Magic Judge from Halifax, N.S. It’s reposted here with his permission.
Hey everyone, L1 judge here ranting about my personal pet peeve that I find myself constantly hearing at my LGS: the abuse of the phrase "in response". I hope my ravings can be helpful to some of you - and if this just comes off as complaining about something insignificant but it could be helpful to you if changed in some way, please let me know and I'll do what I can to fix it.
A: “I’ll play my Urza’s Tower.”
N: “In response, I’ll Ghost Quarter your Urza’s Mine.”
A: “In response, I’ll float 7 colourless mana.”
N: “You can’t do that, I’m Ghost Quartering the Mine in response to you playing the Tower.”
A: “JUDGE!”
The phrase “in response” seems to be one which is at the core of tournament Magic. Even walking into a small FNM, you’d be hard-pressed to go for thirty seconds without hearing it. But over time, these two words become overused and misused, and the clarity and flow of the game often suffers as a result. Today I would like to talk about what “in response” actually means, when it is appropriate to use it, and more importantly, when it is not appropriate to use it.
When can I use it?
Section 116.7 of the Comprehensive Rules reads as follows: “If a player with priority casts a spell or activates an activated ability while another spell or ability is on the stack, the new spell or ability has been cast or activated “in response to” the earlier spell or ability. The new spell or ability will resolve first.” That’s it. It’s that simple. Each time a player casts a spell or activates an activated ability, that player receives priority. That player then chooses to either cast another spell, activate another activated ability, or pass priority to the next player in turn order (so in regular tournament Magic, the opponent). In short, if the stack is not empty and you cast a spell or activate an ability, you are doing it “in response” to whatever is below it on the stack. The only things that will ever be on the stack are spells, activated abilities (indicated by their “cost: effect” formatting), and triggered abilities (indicated by the word “when”, “whenever”, or “at” at the beginning of the ability). Nothing else will ever use the stack – it will just happen immediately.
When can’t I use it?
Plenty of common things that happen many times over the course of an average game of Magic don’t use the stack. You cannot respond to these things. When their time comes, they just happen without using the stack. Because they never go onto the stack while you have priority, you never have a chance to do anything “in response” to them. But what are these things exactly? Once we understand what they are, how they work, and why the phrase “in response” creates confusion around them, we can better understand how to properly communicate with our opponents. Clear player communication is key because it ensures both players are on the same page with respect to the step or phase the game is in, which actions have been taken, and which shortcuts have been cut short. Imagine this: Ajani turns his creatures, including a Geist of Saint Traft, sideways and says “Attack with the team!” Nissa says “In response to attackers, I’ll cast Kozilek’s Return.” Ajani’s Geist dies, and then he puts a 4/4 Angel onto the battlefield tapped and attacking. Did Nissa’s communication make it clear when she was acting, and whether Ajani should be getting a 4/4 Angel from Geist of Saint Traft’s ability?
Turn-based actions
Turn-based actions happen automatically when steps or phases begin or end. They don’t use the stack and can’t be responded to. There are fifteen turn-based actions, which are:
• Phasing permanents in or out in the untap step • Untapping permanents in the untap step • Drawing a card at the beginning of the draw step • Setting a scheme in motion at the beginning of the precombat main phase (in Archenemy) • Choosing an opponent who becomes the defending player (unless you’re playing a multiplayer variant which has all opponents automatically become the defending player) • Declaring attackers at the beginning of the declare attackers step • Declaring blockers at the beginning of the declare blockers step • Active player announcing damage assignment order after blockers have been declared • Non-active player announcing damage assignment order after active player has announced damage assignment order • Assigning combat damage at the beginning of the combat damage step • Dealing combat damage after combat damage has been assigned • Discarding cards to reduce the active player’s hand size to his or her maximum hand size at the beginning of the cleanup step • Removing damage from all permanents and ending “until end of turn” and “this turn” effects after the active player has discarded in the cleanup step • Emptying unused mana from the mana pool at the end of each step or phase
I’ll save you the tedium of me going through and breaking down the above list in excruciating point-by-point detail, but suffice it to say that you can’t do anything “in response” to anything on the above list. For example, “in response to you blocking with Wall of Frost” does not make sense from a rules standpoint because blocking does not use the stack, so there is nothing to respond to. You can take actions before moving to the declare blockers step, or you can take actions after blockers have been declared, but you cannot do something “in response” to a turn-based action such as declaring blockers.
Special actions
According to the comprehensive rules, there are seven special actions which can be taken in a game of Magic. There is another created by Circling Vultures which allows you to discard it any time you could cast an instant (thank you to several Reddit users for pointing that out). The most common one is playing a land, but the others can be relevant as well. The seven special actions listed in the CR are:
• Playing a land • Turning a face-down creature face-up • Taking an action to stop a continuous effect or to stop a delayed triggered ability from triggering • Taking an action to ignore an effect • Exiling a card with suspend from your hand • Rolling the planar die in a game of Planechase • Turning a face-down conspiracy card face-up in a Conspiracy Draft game
Like casting a spell, you must have priority before performing a special action, but unlike casting a spell, performing a special action does not use the stack. A few of these can look fairly daunting, so let’s try to break them down:
Playing a land
A (usually) essential component of playing Magic: the Gathering, playing a land is a special action which does not use the stack. This is fairly simple: it means that the instant you have announced “I am playing this land”, the land is on the battlefield and you have priority again to do as you wish. Nobody can do anything before that land enters the battlefield. Playing a land is one of two special actions, alongside rolling the planar die, which must be performed during either main phase while the stack is empty (i.e. any time you could usually cast a sorcery).
Turning a face-down creature face-up
MORPHS! Although it is possible to have a face-down creature that wasn’t put there via morph or manifest (thank you, Ixidron), casting a creature with morph is the most common way of putting a face-down creature onto the battlefield. Because turning a face-down creature face-up is a special action, you don’t have the opportunity to blindly cast Shock targeting your opponent’s face-down creature before it possibly becomes Akroma, Angel of Fury. However, if the creature has a triggered ability which triggers when it’s turned face-up, that ability will go onto the stack as normal. You will receive priority and have a chance to respond. Just keep in mind that you are responding to the trigger and not the action of turning the card face-up itself.
Stopping a continuous effect or delayed trigger
A lot of words are used here to describe a fairly simple concept. Basically, this means that if an effect says you can stop it by paying a cost, nobody can respond to you paying that cost – it just gets paid. An example of this is Dominating Licid, which has an ability which reads “1UU, T: Dominating Licid loses this ability and becomes an Aura enchantment with enchant creature. Attach it to target creature. You may pay U to end this effect. You control enchanted creature.” If I pay U to turn my Dominating Licid back into a creature, you can’t respond by targeting it with Naturalize because the effect has already been ended and my creature has stopped being an enchantment.
Ignoring an effect
This is very similar to the aforementioned stopping of an effect – if you have priority and an effect states that you may pay a cost to ignore it, nobody can respond to you paying that cost. It is paid and you can ignore the effect regardless of whatever is put onto the stack after you do that. A good example of this is Leonin Arbiter, which reads “Players can’t search libraries. Any player may pay {2} for that player to ignore this effect until end of turn.” If I pay {2} with the intent of activating my Wooded Foothills, you can’t respond to the paying of that cost by casting Path to Exile on one of my creatures – you will absolutely have priority to do that if you want it, but because paying that cost doesn’t use the stack, the {2} has already been paid and I will have the chance to search my library for a basic land.
Exiling a card with suspend from your hand
By this point we’re probably starting to get a little repetitive: suspending a card does not use the stack. You pay the cost and exile it from your hand, just like you turn a morph or manifest face-up by paying the cost and turning it face-up, without waiting for approval from your opponent in between those two things. Although it looks like an activated ability to some players, note how it doesn’t use the “cost: effect” format which indicates an activated ability. You can suspend a card anytime you could normally begin to cast it as a spell.
Rolling the planar die
Rolling the planar die doesn’t use the stack, but its effects do: this doesn’t cause as much confusion to players because rolling either the chaos symbol or the planeswalk symbol will cause the corresponding triggered ability to be put onto the stack (in the case of the planeswalk symbol, it is simply “When you roll {PW}, planeswalk.”). Players will then have the chance to respond as normal. Just remember that nobody can respond to you saying “I am about to roll the planar die” because you just do it as a special action. It is one of two special actions which must be done at “sorcery speed”, the other being playing a land.
Turning a face-down conspiracy face-up
The philosophy of the morphed creatures section from earlier also applies here. Players don’t have the chance to respond to you turning the conspiracy face-up, it just happens. Do note that you can only do this when you have priority – it can’t be turned face-up in the middle of resolving a spell.
Circling Vultures
You can discard Circling Vultures any time you could cast an instant. This is another action which can't be responded to, just like the rest of these special actions. The Vultures was in a player's hand, then it's in that player's graveyard and that player has priority again, although if something triggers from a creature card entering the graveyard (such as Sidisi, Brood Tyrant), you won't have to wait to put that trigger onto the stack. It triggers immediately.
Mana abilities
Mana abilities don’t use the stack. This is a fairly simple concept and doesn’t need much elaboration, but let us recap what constitutes a mana ability while we’re on the topic. An activated ability is a mana ability if it doesn’t have a target, isn’t a loyalty ability, and could add mana to your mana pool when it resolves. Some examples of things which aren’t mana abilities:
• Deathrite Shaman’s first activated ability (“T: Exile target land card from a graveyard. Add one mana of any color to your mana pool.”) is not a mana ability because it has a target • Sarkhan Unbroken’s first activated ability (“+1: Draw a card, then add one mana of any color to your mana pool.”) is not a mana ability because it is a loyalty ability.
A triggered ability is a mana ability only if it is triggered by resolving an activated mana ability, it does not target, and it could add mana to your mana pool when it resolves. Although mana abilities do not use the stack and you cannot do anything “in response” to a mana ability, you CAN respond to abilities like the first activated ability of either Deathrite Shaman or Sarkhan Unbroken before they resolve, because those abilities are not mana abilities and therefore use the stack.
Replacement effects
Another thing some players try to respond to is a replacement effect for a card entering the battlefield. Replacement effects are effects which replace how something happens. An example: “As Phyrexian Revoker enters the battlefield, name a nonland card. Activated abilities of sources with the chosen name can’t be activated.” Phyrexian Revoker has a replacement effect, because instead of simply having it enter the battlefield, you choose a name as it enters the battlefield. The word “as” at the beginning of the ability is the key here which indicates that this is not a triggered ability. Because it is not a triggered ability, and we know that it’s not an activated ability or a spell either, the ability does not use the stack – that is, if I resolve a Phyrexian Revoker, there is no point in time at which you can “respond” to the ability while the Revoker is on the battlefield before a card has been named.
Moving through steps/phases
The final thing I would like to touch on with regards to things that can’t be responded to is moving through steps or phases. Don’t worry: your opponent still needs your permission to move through those steps or phases, as (with the exception of the untap step and the final cleanup step of the turn) you’ll both pass priority on an empty stack before moving to the next step or phase in the turn. What I’m talking about is phrases like “In response to you going to combat”, which are unclear and very ambiguous. These phrases do not indicate when you intend to act, because “in response” has absolutely no meaning with respect to the passing of steps or phases in a turn – do you have an action in my precombat main phase, or do you want to act in my beginning of combat step? Instead, explicitly indicate when you wish to act. Not only is it technically correct, it also helps avoid potentially messy judge calls about the exact timing of a situation and who said what when.
