ideal future p!atd movie would not be the social network style tbh. i think the only real way to do a panic! at the disco movie is to do it velvet goldmine style.

[l-e-morgan-author]

I'm musing on my plans ahead for a specific story (I'll update y'all when the month is over and I'm back on social media! but I have made a plot breakthrough literally three years in the making), and I realised: this character would absolutely have religious OCD/scrupulosity. So I need to do research.

People with ROCD, what resources would you recommend/what is it like living with scrupulosity? I may live with it myself, but I have no formal diagnosis and no medical professional has ever considered exploring it (that'd be multiple friends who've asked if I have OCD) so I'm hesitant to give her purely what I feel/experience in case I'm misleading myself.

A google search wasn't particularly helpful on specifically how to write it, hence why I came here.

Please signal boost and give me ideas :)

Though I won't see any responses until the month is over, if you have questions about the story itself and how her issues impact and are impacted by it, I'm happy to answer anything. I don't know how to keep a spoiler to save my life, lol.

finished episode 34 and what I am getting is that Shan Gudao is basically going "You be better than shixiong? You be better than shixiong at martial arts and be the favourite of our shifu? SUFFERING FOR SHIDI FOR TEN YEARS, SUFFERING FOR SHIDI FOR TEN YEARS!!!!!"

I was literally sound asleep and my roommate (not even into iwtv/tvc) sent me the video, and then proceeded to to text my phone, call me, and then when I did not wake up, she came and knocked on my bedroom door so I woke up to “they dropped rockstar lestat, you need to wake up, you’re gonna want to see this”

Had a stressful day and then spent the rest of the evening making a compilation of Terra eye closeups to cope. Did not even remotely help with making me feel more normal but at least now I have much more extensive and obvious comparisons of his ffucking enormous prettyboy disney princess lashes oh my god what is his ISSUE

Might be a hot take as a bkdk and tgck truther here, but I find izuocha endlessly fascinating, beautiful, but also tearfully tragic.

I see their love for each other as something representative of their innocence and naivety when they only knew so little about who they were, and what was to come.

I think the main barrier of their relationship is that its rooted in how they see each other very idealistically, specifically that they're attached to the image of their Best Heroic Selves, and not the deeply selfish, destructive, freaky, and egotistical parts of them. To each other, they need to keep fulfilling that image or else that same person they looked up to would almost die in front of them, and that would be too cruel. Although that hero is still there, that same person they looked up to is not the same now because of...well...everything.

Izuku had barely even talked to girls when he first met her. She was Izuku's first ever real friend (Sorry Kats, everyone and him knows he was terrible), so he saved her in that entrance exam even if it was so dangerous. She gave a new meaning to his derogatory nickname just by being a friend that believed in him. After that, she saved him several more times (Blackwhip and Megaphone are the biggest samples iirc). It makes perfect sense that she is Deku's hero.

Ochako hardly knew what it meant to be a hero when she first got into UA. Just by reaching out to some kid tripping, she made a new friend who would then save her in that exam, then save him again in return. This boy then became someone who was always working so hard to save everyone in trouble, and she realized she wanted to be just like him too. "I want to save people"

But...Deku changes. The weight of One for All is on his shoulders and he needs someone to carry this burden with him. He continues to want to save other people at the expense of himself, still not letting his true selfishness and ego ever show- and it only grows more and more unbearable.

Then...Ochako fell in love with Himiko. Truly, relentlessly, selfishly and devotedly in love with a girl who then dies giving her blood to her- the greatest expression of love Himiko could ever give.

Not that they can't love each other because of this happening (and...so many other things oh god), I'm honestly not sure how to explain it- But them ending up together after losing that innocence and naivety? After Ochako will forever grieve the girl who showed her love in its most beautiful and ugly form? After Izuku changed so fundamentally as a person that the butterflies of a nice girl talking to you doesn't exist anymore? After that simple image of being a hero and being in love has completely changed for them both?

Even so, I believe they still love each other. There is no label I know of that can properly describe them though. They are each other's image of being a hero when it comes to saving people. Aside from Shoto, no one else can grasp the grief of the person you tried to save dying in your hands. They would no doubt try to cope with these losses together, and just try to get better together...but so much has changed. They've changed. The world changed. What are they now? Who are they now?

"What happened...to us?"

Mega Man Ships, but They're Explained Reverse Pandora's Box Style - Part 1

So here's how this is gonna work. I'm going to use a shipping template to explain a bunch of the Mega Man ships that I support. But here's the catch - with every ship, the list is going to get more and more obscure. Let me explain further:

The ship we start with will be something well-known, and the last one will be one so bizarre and out-there that you might want to argue with me once you see what it is. Heck, you might want to argue with me at any point during this. And you know what? Go for it. I enjoy debates. Just be respectful. We can settle this like responsible members of society.

I am a multishipper. If you ever see the same person twice, that's why.

 Some characters are aged up slightly (none of the kids are adults now, don't worry), because I like to think the characters age over time (that and I can't believe they gave Rock the Ash Ketchum treatment...). I will be going off of headcanons and vibes for characters without confirmed ages.

While I could give commentary giving context for each of these ships and the content I put in the template, I won't (except for special instances). Instead, I'll write a oneshot for each one.

Not only that, but I will also be linking a song for each ship! Although I won't be explaining those, or else we'd have a bunch of mini-essays of me doing lyrical analysis (but. Hypothetically. If you wanted me to do an essay for any of these songs for any of this ships. I would not be opposed).

Every ship will be under a cut. You don't know what you'll get unless you click the button. That way, you won't get jumpscared by some crazy, out-there ship while you're scrolling through your dash as this series goes on (that, and this series' title has to make sense somehow).

I've tried to make my handwriting as legible as possible (I'm not very good at writing digitally), but if you can't read something, let me know.

The inspiration and original template for this post have been snatched from here. However, you may notice that some parts of the template have been censored on this post. This was done for two reasons: 1. Some parts of the original template are suggestive, and I try to keep my blog PG for the most part. 2. On that note, some ships are between characters who are minors. And I do not want to make any sort of suggestive content about underaged individuals or children (or anybody else, tbh), thank you.

The censored version of this template can be found here in case you would like to use it (it might look like nothing's there, but that's because the background is transparent):

Now that the ground rules have been established, it is time to prove to you all that I (mostly) come in peace. Go ahead, open the box.

See? I told you the first one would be normal! - Ship name: Bassroll/Rollass - Song: "Head Over Heels" (1985) by Tears for Fears

--- This was a stupid idea. Bass stood outside of the Lights' residence, wanting to kick himself. Even if Roll answered the door, who was to say that she would react well to what he had to say? Stupid, he thought. Absolutely stupid. His fist hovered above the door, as if he were about to knock - but then he put it back down, shaking his head. He spun on his heel, as if he were about to leave, only for the door to open behind him. "Bass?" Bass jumped at the sound of Roll's voice, face burning as he heard Roll's voice. He swore at himself - what was he getting so flustered for?! He turned back around and took a deep breath. "Roll." "What are you doing here? Are you looking for Rock?" "Nah. I'm here for you." Roll's eyes widened, and Bass could've sworn she saw her turn a shade of pink - but it disappeared as soon as it appeared. "You - you are?" She soon became angry, and crossed her arms. "Why? Are you here to kidnap me again?"

"Nope. Kinda the opposite." He walked back to the door, standing in front of her. "I want you to leave me alone."

Roll blinked, confused. "What?"

"You heard me. I want you to stay away from me. Quit showin' up to help Rock in fights, quit comin' over to be a 'good influence' for my sisters. Just back off."

Roll's brow furrowed. "And why should I?"

"Because I can't focus around you, that's why! How am I supposed to fight Rock or do whatever random garbage Wily comes up with for me to do around the fortress if you're always there?"

"I still don't see the problem."

"That's the issue! You don't know what you do to me, you-" Bass stopped, his face flushing. Why did she have to look at him with those stupid eyes? "Nothin'. Forget it. Do what you want." He turned and left, his ears burning from how hard he was blushing.

Roll, on the other hand, was absolutely stunned. Could it be that Bass felt the same way about her that she did about him? Why else would he get so red when talking to her? And how else could she "do something" to him when she'd never laid a finger on him? But - no, that was ridiculous. He'd just told her to leave him alone! But at the same time... Roll sighed. There was only one way to settle this.

She had to talk to Bass.

---

"I don't want to watch this movie!"

Bass rolled his eyes at Waltz's whining. "It's my turn with the TV. And I don't want to watch it, either. But I had to pick somethin' 'age appropriate' for you two, since neither of you know how to take a hint and bug off."

Piano looked at Bass curiously. "Brother, you are being uncharacteristically hostile toward us. Is something wrong?"

Bass cocked an eyebrow. "You speak way too proper for an eight-year-old, you know that?"

Piano frowned. "You are trying to change the subject."

Bass clucked his tongue. "Look, I'm not mad at you and Waltz, okay? I'm just not in a good mood right now."

"Why?" Waltz asked.

Bass shrugged. "I dunno. I just... well, today I had to tell somebody who was gettin' on my nerves not to be around me anymore. But now I feel kind of... weird about it."

"Are you sad?"

"I don't know, Waltz. I don't want to talk about it. Let's just watch the mo-"

"Bass?"

Bass flinched and almost fell off the couch. He turned to his left, and sure enough, Roll was standing there. "What the - who let you in?! And didn't I just tell you to stay away from me?!"

Waltz squealed and ran up to Roll. "Roll, Roll! Are you here to play with me and Piano again?"

"We would like it very much if you did," Piano said, walking next to Waltz. "Dr. Wily bought us a new tea set yesterday, but Bass isn't any good at having tea with us."

"Yeah!" Waltz agreed. "He's the worst at playing pretend. But you're great at it, Roll!"

"Maybe we can play tomorrow," Roll said. "I came over to talk to your brother."

"Aww! Okay..."

"I have to advise you that he is not in a very good mood," Piano warned. "And based on what he just said, I gather that you have something to do with it. If I were you, I would exercise caution and try to determine if the conversation you are about to have with him is truly worth it."

"Oh, don't worry, Piano. I already thought about it."

Piano nodded and grabbed Waltz's hand. "Very well. Come with me, Waltz. I have an idea for something we could do."

Bass' sisters left the room, and Roll and Bass were left alone. "So," Bass said, staring at the TV to distract himself from Roll, "What do you want?"

Roll sat down next to him. She had to keep herself from looking too hard at Bass - he somehow managed to still be cute, even when he was angry. "I thought about what you said earlier."

"Psh. As if. If that were true, you wouldn't be here."

"I had to tell you something."

"Which is?"

"You know how you said I do something to you? Even though we've never fought or anything?"

Bass huffed. How could she not realize the affect she had on him? He moved away from her, wondering if that would help. It didn't. In fact, it made it worse. She moved closer, wanting to return the distance between them to its original state. She wants to sit next to me... Bass had to put his head in one of his hands to hide how red that realization made him. "What? You mean what you're doing now?"

"Yes. Uhm... I think... I think you do the same thing to me."

Bass scoffed. "Yeah, right." He felt fine to look at Roll now, the stupidity of her statement making him laugh. "Do you even know what you're sayin'?"

"I do!" Roll pursed her lips. Was she really going to say what she was about to? What if she was completely wrong about this whole thing? What if the reality of the situation was something really ridiculous, like she was a carrier of Roboenza and made Bass sick whenever she was around him? Or what if Bass was just really mad at her? But then again - she would never know for sure unless she said what she felt, right? "I... I like you, Bass. I like you a lot."

Bass snorted, and Roll felt her heart sink. Had she been wrong after all? "'Like me'? Really? What, you wanna be friends or somethin'? I thought Rock was the only one in your family stupid enough to try that."

"That's not it," Roll corrected. Her confidence was starting to come back. It wasn't that she was wrong - Bass had just misunderstood her. "That's not it! I - I want to be more than friends with you."

"What? Like 'best friends'? Wow. Not even Rock would think that we could be-"

"No!" Roll stood up, frustrated. "How do you not understand?! I want you to - I don't know, take me out on a date! Or something!"

Bass gaped for a second, shocked. Then he began to snicker. "And why would I do that?"

"Because - because you like me, too. Or at least, I think you do..."

Bass scoffed. "No I don't. You're a Lightbot. I hate..." he trailed off. For some reason, the word 'hate' didn't quite fit how he felt about Roll. Even though it fit perfectly for Rock. And Blues. Blues sucked. But for Roll, it was different. He didn't really have anything against her. She never tried to preach to him about how he was "more than his programming" and had "goodness in him", like Rock did. And she never tried to grill him about why he did the things he did, or how he saw himself like Blues did. But she did make his core overheat whenever he saw her, or make it hard to think, or make his insides feel all fuzzy. And it didn't help that she was kind of pretty looking...

Wait.

Wait.

Was Roll... was Roll right?

"No - no you can't be serious. I can't - I can't like you, I - oh, I'm done. Wily's going to kill me. I'm dead. He's gonna be so freakin' pi- wait. I don't have to tell him. Yeah. Yeah, the old man doesn't need to know about this! This doesn't stop me from cleanin' Rock's clock. This... I can work with this. It's all good. I've got this..."

"Hey, Bass?"

"And I'm sure there's a way to turn this off. I mean, I didn't start out like this. This is recent. It's been... what, two months since you started screwin' with my head? It's cool. I can fix it. It's fine. All I have to do is just... think of somethin' I don't like about you."

"Bass, listen..."

"Okay, let's see." Bass thought for a moment, standing in front of Roll to get a better look at her. He tried to think back to every time they had talked, every time they had a petty exchanging of words. But... no. There was nothing that he could use. "Huh. I'm, uh... comin' up short. It's fine. I'll think of somethin'. Dr. Light couldn't have built you perfect, right? Even though it sure seems like he di- wait, no. I wasn't supposed to say that-"

"Bass! Listen to me!"

"What?!" Bass threw his hands up. "What do you want from me now?!"

"Calm down! It's going to be fine! We don't have to do anything. I can leave. If it's going to be a problem, we can pretend like there's nothing-"

"Are you kiddin' me?! You started this problem - and now you want to act like you didn't?" Bass grinned. "I don't think so, Roll. Since I can't figure out how to stop how I feel about you, I'm goin' all in." He walked directly to her, making sure to get as close as possible without touching her. He bit back a laugh when he saw her turn pink again. "Park. Seven-thirty tonight. And you better not stand me up."

Roll smiled, and Bass thought he was going to fall out. "I wouldn't dream of it."

"Hey!" A familiar voice called out from nearby. "You two should kiss!"

Bass whipped his head around, and saw Waltz and Piano spying on him and Roll. Waltz slapped a hand over her mouth, but it was much too late for that. "You two! Don't either of you know how to scram?!" Bass started to chase after them, and Waltz screeched as he did so. Piano didn't say anything - she just focused on being faster than he was.

Roll laughed, and decided that now would be a good time to leave.

She had a date to get ready for, after all.
