#og anon search party

[dipperscavern]

HELP i'm gordon ramsay anon and that man is my "hear me out..." celebrity crush 😭😭 anyways i've been thinking a lot about what cregan's kinks are outside of breeding + size + possessive. like, i can't imagine him having an exhibition kink cus he doesn't want anyone to see u or spanking cus he doesn't wanna hit u in any capacity. maybeee. . . lactation to go along with breeding 😵‍💫 ? biting to claim u (classic wolf behavior)? winter council, how do we feel about spit kink, somnophilia, belly bulge, or predator/prey for cregan. . . i feel like cregan is a lowkey freak that has at least one hardcore kink under his belt 🫣 omg what about him commissioning leather belts long enough to tie u up

-👩‍🍳

GORDON RAMSEY ANON YOU WERE LOST TOO. I AM SO SORRY. COME BACK WE MISS YOU!!! #OGAnonSearchParty

anyways, very good question indeed. let me think — size kink, breeding kink, a possessive streak every blood moon for sure. BITING!! he likes biting you but LOVES being on the receiving end, and the predator/prey omfg. him chasing you through the wolfswood wait who said that. COUGH anyways belly buldge to go with the size kink!!!! i think his “hardcore” kink would be the predator/prey u mentioned, you’re a genius’ <3

(finnick + cockwarming pretty please i’ll give you my firstborn child)

anon, i’m in love with you. take all of the forehead kisses. all of them. (btw, call me when that child is born!)

A/N: originally, this was gonna be something where reader and finnick are at a party and it’s kind of public, he’s a little meaner, but i think voyeurism as well as denying his girl anything she wants is a little ooc for him so i chose this instead. i still have the outline of the og, though, so if you’d be interested in reading that and are willing to excuse it lmk!

CW: cockwarming— mind you, fluffy cockwarming, because it’s finn!

MDNI, not proofread i cba 😔🫶

finnick odair would do anything for you. shit, he’s braved hell and back twice just for the chance to catch a glimpse of you again. you’re his world, the love of his life, and the last thing he wants is to see you upset.

which is why, when you entered your shared bedroom with a quivering bottom lip and glistening eyes, he dropped everything immediately.

“hey, hey, sweetheart, what’s wrong?” he had asked gently, brows pinching together as concern started seeping in. he beckoned you over to where he sat with open arms, and you gladly went. he pulled you onto his lap, warm hands cupping your face as he searched your eyes for any indication of what the problem could be. “talk to me,” he murmured, anxiety forming a pit in his stomach when you didn’t give him an immediate response.

it had been a long day. all the noise, all the people, all the feelings had gotten to you, and you just needed finnick. needed to turn off your brain in the way only he could. “jus’ had a busy day, too much going on and-” you sniffed, looking up into those sea green eyes and feeling a distant pang of guilt at the panic that was rising in them. “i need you, finn,”

realization flickered across his features and his lips parted before he pressed them together again, his gaze shifting from worried to conflicted. finnick never found it easy to deny you anything— and this wasn’t even something he wanted to say no to— but he had deadlines to fulfill, things that he couldn’t put off any longer. you knew that, you did, but you really were aching for whatever piece of him you could get.

and so, you end up here, still sat in his lap as he slowly presses into you, a quiet whine falling from your lips at the stretch. your face buries itself into his neck, hands bracing his shoulders. “finn,” your voice comes out strained and desperate, just above a whisper as you sink down onto him. “m’right here, sugar, i got you,” his hands rest on your hips, lightly squeezing them in encouragement. you continue to whimper as you take the rest of him, adjusting to the size. “i know, honey, i know,” he soothes, one of his hands coming up from your hips to rub your back.

a few minutes in, you’re a bit more mollified. your thoughts come to a slow, sticky pace, and suddenly, nothing seems so loud anymore. all that’s left in your head is finnick finnick finnick and the comfortable weight of him inside of you. “this what you needed, pretty girl? feel better?” his voice is low against your ear and you give a small nod, because yes, it’s exactly what you needed, but your words are kind of failing you at the moment.

you stay like that for god knows how long, his arm wrapped around your waist as he continues to work, your forehead resting on his shoulder. eventually, though, you shift a little, and it’s just enough to cause his cock to graze that sweet spot inside of you. his muscles tense underneath you as you tighten around him and he makes a sound in between a sigh and a groan, picking you up as though you weigh nothing. “what’re you doing?” you ask, your voice soft and dazed as he sets you down on the bed, hands slipping underneath your shirt and roaming further up as he starts trailing kisses down your neck. “taking care of my girl,” he tells you, and, well,

you’ll have to start having bad days more often.

HI i just saw ur lokius fairytale post aaand like kinda rotating that cinderella scenario around my head any chance you have any other thoughts to add onto it ?

Hey anon, really glad the fairytale asks stuck with you because we've been having so much fun with them! Honestly I'd not had a chance to think of more until getting this but after having a little time there's a scenario I'm kind of loving which may or may not have spiraled from the og Cinderella concept so apologies in advance 😅

(also putting this under a cut because y'all know me and whew did this get longer than even I'd expected 😂💖)

Cue Ravonna sending Mobius on a reconnaissance mission to get details on Odin being up to something which seems to differ from the usual flow of that timeline, the details are vague enough for him to wonder where she's going with this but they both know the chance for him to get close enough to Asgard is too tempting to pass up and there's an upcoming ball with enough invitations that one more shouldn't be a problem. So he tries his best to at least blend into the background long enough to slip away and search for info but the fact that he's pretty much the only person at the party not boisterously jumping through hoops for Odin's attention or favor draws Loki's attention him like a lightning rod, lol, which doesn't escape mutual notice and since the only other option would be Loki making a scene to draw attention to whoever this mysterious(ly hot) stranger is no one seems to know, Mobius can't help pointing out he's not exactly someone that would be sent in as a physical threat so maybe if he's allowed a few minutes to explain he could make it in Loki's best interest 👀👀

Loki's skeptical but intrigued, and it's not like he was enjoying the night beforehand anyway so he follows expecting some obvious lie of an excuse as to what Mobius is doing there but instead Mobius quite bluntly tells him he's there for dirt on Odin that could be mutually beneficial for them both.

This part he keeps to himself ofc, but by now he's figured out whatever's going on clearly has to do with/is centered around Loki's future and after so many years of researching Lokis he's secretly harbored a crush and honestly does want the best for them if possible so it's very easy to at least tell the truth about why he's trying to sneak around in the first place. Loki doesn't completely believe him, but he's infinitely more interesting than anyone in recent memory and Loki's desperate to learn about him so he haughtily declares Mobius no real threat, and will guide him through the palace personally to seek out this all important info, with the threat of imprisonment if the night ends empty handed.

Mobius cheerfully agrees with the knowledge he'll be long gone through a time door before things come to that, and the night is kind of playing out like a fantasy he didn't even realize he had so because he knows it won't last he lets himself be a little playful with Loki, praising his magic and asking questions he hadn't been able to answer from his files, like which flower first comes to mind when he looks out at the gardens?? Loki of course bristles at first but soon realizes how much comfort there is in the way Mobius speaks to and about him, and how his words bask brighter and warmer than any sun 🥺

However, because of this he can also tell Mobius knows far more about him than he previously let on, and can't figure out why he seems so delighted by all the qualities everyone else has been so bothered by his entire life so as they search through Odin's private study he starts needling for details to match, eventually getting nothing but things that completely baffle him like how Mobius obviously has horrible taste in food and that he seems wiser beyond his years than any Midguardian he's ever seen yet somehow seems to have nothing of personal value in his life except something called a jet ski?? And he's taken aback how, when pressed, Mobius isn't even upset about it but just a bit sadly resigned. They share a moment of bonding over their prior loneliness and start to grow even closer, leaning in just before a crash sounds from the hallway and the sounds of drunken guards calling for there whereabouts of Prince Loki echo, forcing them to break apart as Loki panics about how to explain Mobius' presence and bringing Mobius back to reality about how far he let the night spiral by indulging so it's all he can do but stumble out an apology for everything as Loki tries to find a way for them to sneak away before turning back just in time to see the gleam of a time door disappearing in the middle of the room 😔

Now the whole "glass slipper" element is a harder one since it's not like even if Mobius left behind something TVA related Loki would be able to trace it back to him so this is where I headcanon he dropped a folded magazine photo of a fav jet ski he liked to carry around as a reminder of why he works so hard, that he had taken out to show Loki was he was talking about earlier and Loki uses to trace back to Don, alerting the TVA due to the obvious branch it cases, and then you can only how everything Mobius knows implodes from there which would probably take me a year to detail but is very fun to picture and yes because I love him this would also result in Don meeting the Loki of his timeline because he deserves love too 😂😂

@apocalypticsinn replied to your post “ok. i'm giving the first episode a shot.”:

Oh noooOOOO welcome to hell :,) Alice remains like this the entire series btw and it just. It doesn’t get better. The newest episode I wanted to strangle her- I’m VERY interested in hearing your full thoughts on even just this first episode-!

​whgau first thing's first i am touched to hear you're interested in my thoughts

ok so overall it was very bad. @socvinc is correct that the sound mixing is fantastic, especially contrasted against s1 of tma which was shoestring budget dogshit. but then again this new show was funded by a seemingly boundless supply of patreon dollars so it fucking better sound expensive!!

alice is absolutely insufferable. you could stick a classroom full of twelve year old bronies (and i mean the og 2010s bronies not the gen z post ironic queer reclamation kind) in front of a hundred typewriters for all of time and they would eventually produce every single thing that has ever come out of alice's mouth. sure, it seems like gwen and most other people are annoyed with her, so at least she isn't being treated as funny and charming in-universe!! but absolutely fucking impossible to listen to. will not be putting myself through more of that.

also, the general animosity and malaise is unearned. sure, we have all been at jobs where everyone is burnt out and nobody cares anymore. but there's a sort of creeping realization that comes with that. even if things are bad right off the bat, they still get worse as you familiarize yourself with your new surroundings.

to have your exposition be alice telling sam that nothing matters and there is no point to his job and everything is stupid and he shouldn't even be here just makes me hate her. it doesn't matter that she's doing it to give gwen a moment to shine and prove her diligence and dedication. it immediately makes alice a deeply unlikeable character. she is relentlessly negative and cynical and lazy and we have been given ZERO justification for why she would be so abbrasive to someone just starting a new career!! plus she's fucking annoying so the cards are REALLY stacked against her.

and the relentless gloomy bleakness of the Archives was so. so. so. earned. all of s1 had this slow slow sloooooow build up of tension and horror and false leads and red herrings and SUDDENLY WORMS. SASHA'S DEAD. TIDAL WAVE OF WORLD-ENDING WORMS. THREE DREAD POWERS AT ONCE. AND EVERYONE HAS PTSD AFTERWARDS AND STILL HAS TO COME IN TO WORK. JON'S GONE OFF THE FUCKING DEEP END. THEN S2. NO ONE CAN LEAVE. WE'RE ALL TRAPPED HERE LIKE RATS IN A SINKING SHIP.

the gloom and malaise and desperation is real and tangible and you are there with the characters as it builds. it's rewarding and dynamic. opening episode 1 with "everyone hates it here bc it's very spooky and bureucratic" is just a pale and unsuccessful immitation of the slowburn that MADE the archives what they were.

also the very first little mini statement was so lame??? no build up. no atmosphere. no character development. not even a short story, just a tumblr uquiz option. "i saw my husband but he was Shaped Wrong and also dead" jesus christ...

i might listen to episode 2 just because i have time to kill but being dropped into the middle of an office party gave me traumatic tma s5e1 flashbacks and i can't live through that again. one of my tmp anons who mentioned it was very office-banter based was SOOOO right. the majority of the episode felt like those incorrect-quotes accounts that clog up tumblr search results. just people i don't know and voices i don't recognize having weird try-hard conversations.

oh that's another glaring difference: the dialogue and voice acting in tma feels incredibly natural. the way conversations are written and the way they are performed feels believable, like listening to recordings of people who do not know they're being recorded. the conversations in tmp feel like watching f.r.i.e.n.d.s in that every line feels really rigidly scripted. no one talks over one another. no sounds overlap. there are no natural sounding pauses or stutters. just bad sitcom dialogue. BUT as i said to anon.... that's what the people want.

overall feels like an ogfic "inspired by" tma that i would have no interest in reading. a pale immitation of lightning in a bottle.

can't say i blame them. we all have bills to pay. but i can say i resent them.

Hey, I really liked your article on what the Internet is like in 2024. For many of us the way it is now is all we have ever really known. How did people navigate an internet before Google owned search bars and the same 10 or so sites ran public opinion?

Thanks for the ask, anon! I got into that a little in the beginning of the article that excerpt was from. Repasting here, and I'll elaborate further down:

There was a solid three years in college—maybe even longer—when I literally read every single article on CollegeHumor.com and Cracked.com. Whenever I had some free time (an abundance I was tragically unaware of at the time), I’d type their URLs into my browser bar, scroll down to the last article I read, and start reading. Once I was caught up, I’d check in on a handful of other sites the same way (mostly webcomics, and a few blogs). Questionable Content, Penny Arcade, XKCD, Ctrl-Alt-Del, and, yes, even some more embarrassing to admit than CAD that I’m not going to mention here were all readily-available in my browser bar’s autocomplete. When I ran out of new stuff to read, I’d hit StumbleUpon, or Reddit, or Digg. There were always some new URLs out there for me to uncover, good or bad (and there were a lot of bad ones), and I loved finding them. Please don’t take this as me flexing my OG internet cred; nothing I’ve said here is all that different from the mid-00s experience of any online American goober. I say all this to point out a fundamental shift in how the internet (at least the internet that I’ve experienced, within my social and geographical bubble) has worked over the last ~10 years. Those early days were defined by websites, not social feeds. When I “went online,” I went to specific URLs to see what the people behind them were up to. Sure, there was Twitter and Facebook, and Myspace before that, but those were still avenues to direct traffic to websites, more or less. People went on those platforms (and later, those apps) to be social, not make content. The most “content creation” you’d do on Facebook in those days was upload a selfie or tag all your friends in a party photo from the night before.

Before the feeds, everyone had a website, and you'd spend your online time going from URL to URL to check in on them. If you've ever heard the term "blogroll," this is the time that was from.

Let's say it's 2006 and I have a blog with a bunch of dedicated readers. Somewhere on my blog's page, I would have section dedicated to linking out to other blogs I liked. That was the "blogroll", and before that there were "webrings" which accomplished a similar thing in a slightly different way.

Webcomics were really, really good at this. They organically created a lot of the social infrastructure that earlier internet ran on, and that the later web 2.0 stuff was built on.

After a while, RSS readers became much more user-friendly, and blog owners made their blog's RSS feed as accessible as possible. If you input a website's RSS feed into your RSS reader (RIP Google Reader, we didn't deserve you), then your RSS reader would update.

[Random screenshot of Google Reader I found online. This was Google's take, but all the other ones more or less worked the same way.]

It looked a lot like email, to be honest. And on that note, I think the recent surge in newsletters is recreating that experience, to a degree. I subscribe to over a dozen newsletters, from Substack and other platforms/outlets, and I filter them all out of my inbox and into a separate label. This is a screenshot of my newsletter inbox:

I don't have to log into Twitter, or Threads, or Bluesky, or whatever to get the content I want from the people I want to get content from. I don't have to worry about how the algorithm is sorting it; this feed is always chronological. There's nothing between me and the writers, artists, and other creators I want to keep up with.

With the collapse of the algorithm-driven era*, I think we're heading back to this (or at least, I think we should be). What's great about this is: we don't have to be beholden to the whims of platforms anymore. We can just get the stuff we want from the people we want.

*The algorithms are still very much alive and still very much want you to keep yourself hooked up to their slurry, but they've dropped their end of the bargain. The spell is broken, there's no longer one place that feels like everyone is logging into to talk about whatever's happening on the internet in any given moment. Elon Musk ruining Twitter was the final thing that broke the spell, but it started happening after everyone got mad at Facebook for helping get Trump elected in 2016. Now that everyone's looking for something else to replace what they used to get from algo feeds but failing to coalesce in one place again, that's never going to come back.

So that all answers your question: "For many of us the way it is now is all we have ever really known. How did people navigate an internet before Google owned search bars and the same 10 or so sites ran public opinion?"

But I'd like to focus on the second sentence there for a second. You're right, right now it feels like Google owns search bars and the same 10 or so sites run public opinion. However, that's only because we've all given that power to them. I understand it, and sympathize with it. Creating an intentional presence on the internet is a lot of work, and it's hard to keep up with it as all the services we use to do it change their policies and settings.

I think this straight-to-the-source model would be better for all of us in general, and the best part about it is you can just start doing it for yourself whenever you want. You don't have to wait for a platform to start offering it, just find the writers and creators you want and subscribe to their newsletters. If a platform changes something that puts a wall up between you and the people you like there, doesn't matter. You're following their email newsletter and will still get those emails as long as they keep sending them.

That early internet I described was full of people still figuring out how it all worked, so the gears and inner workings were a lot more apparent and easier to play with. As the internet has gotten more polished, those gears have been covered up and less visible, but they're still there.

In fact, every Tumblr page has an rss feed, just add "/rss" to the end of its URL like this: https://seancurry1.tumblr.com/rss. You could set up an RSS feed yourself, or figure out a way to convert RSS updates to emails. Here's an IFTTT recipe to do it, but I'm sure there are other ways.

The platforms all want you to think the way the internet currently exists is the way it's always been and the only way it ever can be, but all the gears are there if you look for them. You can start ripping the guts out and seeing how it works for yourself, and even make it better.

Anyway, happy to pass on my Elder Internetter knowledge if you have more questions! I think we're at an exciting turning point in the internet where the power to shape our experiences is up for grabs, but it's up to us to grab it.

OK different anon but the ferrari smick brainrot has firmly taken place in my skull. as OG anon said, seb has to fend mick off with a broom after the confession; i just want to see a scene set after a gala/formal event where they're staying at the same hotel. seb says his goodbyes around midnight and goes to head up to his room. except mick catches the door of the elevator the last second and gets in. and. elevators are liminal spaces ya know? and they both have been drinking. seb leans against the wall and closes his eyes for a second; he's been avoiding staring at mick the whole night, how handsome he looks in the dark suit with his hair slicked back. and then he feels mick step in and mick grabs the railing RIGHT next to his waist and when he opens his eyes, mick is only a few centimeters away, intently watching him with hooded eyes.

seb's breath hitches; he doesn't have any room to escape to-- and if he was honest with himself, he'd know that he doesn't really want to. "mick," he says, finding that his mouth is suddenly so, so dry. "we can't. you know that."

and mick just keeps looking at him and goes "i don't," and then he leans in and runs the tip of his nose from seb's chin up to the corner of his mouth, along his nose. seb is shocked still by the desire. and then mick takes his hand and puts it to his waist-- safe enough, seb thinks, giving him the tiniest squeeze. but then mick slides his hand down, down to his belt, his fly and then seb feels his hot hard cock covered only by his slacks. "this is what you do to me," mick says, hot against his cheek.

ANON GET BACK HERE. GET BACK HERE RIGHT THIS INSTANT AND ANSWER FOR YOUR CRIMES. I'M SENDING OUT A SEARCH PARTY. I'M ARRESTING YOU. JAIL FOR ANON. JAIL FOR ANON FOR A THOUSAND YEARS.

How dare you just stop there! Come back here. Picture me yelling into a void, COME BACK HERE AND FINISH WHAT YOU STARTED! Your genius brain and elevators being liminal spaces, you should write a book anon! Mick being the one who instigates? Yes I'm nodding I'm nodding I'm taking notes from you and scribbling furiously. Mick says, THIS IS WHAT YOU DO TO ME????

How does Seb respond in the face of Mick's desire? Does he give in? Does he summon all his strength to push Mick away, hurt them both emphatically? Does the elevator ding open and ruin their moment? WHO WALKS IN? WHOOOOOOO. Charles? Oh god. Oh god! I'm going crazy actually anon! I need answers!

[fictionkinfessions]

Excuse me MPC, I just noticed I forgot close out my Warhammer 40k quiz confession (post/680321312148815872) with my usual tag/ending signoff. I recall submitting this post, but I swear I might've sent in another confession with the same information, just slightly altered. Can you please check if there's another post similar to this that has been submitted with the tag #📖🔥💀? To give specific information, I thought I mentioned I find it neat how I've changed compared to when I was Erebus. I didn't mean to double post twice about the topic, I just genuinely forgot I sent this one in. I don't want the post deleted if it is in queue, but I do apologize for the double posting. I don't know if you can amend the tag to the OG post, due to it being an anon post. Sorry for the trouble, I hope April Fools has been kind to you. - #📖🔥💀

Ok sure, it’s tagged! The double is not on the queue afaik, so I went back like five days and searched some keywords? And I don't think we got a double? Unless I just can't find it! Either way, it's totally fine! You're defintely not the first and you're not alone in resending stuff about the same topic! I've definitely done that lollerskates! Happy poisson d'avril day to do!! *hands you paper fish*

Do you blame Serena for fighting for Dan? It is plausible that she thought Blair was never serious about Dan right? And honestly the way Nate was written, he didn’t have much of a personality and seemed lost about his path for most of the show.

Anon, if you were searching for a succinct answer, I am sorry, you came to the wrong nerd’s inbox...

I mean, if anything I blame the writers.

It depends on where you’re asking—if I blame Serena for turning to Dan as a source of comfort when she’s vulnerable (I’m thinking of s3 & s4 specifically) then like, no, that’s a very human thing to do.

And it’s not like Dan didn’t do that either, he gravitated to Serena in s4 largely, in my unsolicited unprofessional opinion, because of his grief over losing Milo.

If you’re talking about the s5 finale though, and the severely OOC behavior involving emotional manipulation and revenge porn...then it’s a no from me dawg. That’s not okay.

Nads (mysteriesofloves) has written about this more eloquently than I’m about to, but here goes: in s5, at the wedding, when Serena confesses that she loves Dan, she echoes the same words Blair tells Nate way back in the pilot: “Always have, always will.” Which is, on the surface, a nice sentiment, but there’s such an underlying cynicism to it in the context of the show, because...it’s untrue. And both women communicate it at moments to save something that is in many ways already gone.

(Dan, I do believe, had already let Serena go a long time ago, as I say here).

As for your second question, it is plausible. It’s obvious to us, as the audience, the depth of Blair’s feelings (Ms Meester truly did The Most), but Dair’s relationship as it’s displayed on the show exists mostly in its own bubble, and is insulated from all the batshit 5b plots swirling around it. Serena is not omniscient like the audience is, so she probably doesn’t see their connection, and, given her response to the Pink Party Debacle, she probably isn’t looking to. And I think that “Always have, always will” brand of cynicism comes into play again here, with a “you don’t know her like I know her / you don’t know him like I know him.” and it's technically true, Dan knows Blair the way only he knows her, and Blair knows Dan the way only she knows him

Largely, I think the main tension Serena feels is that: these two people, who always seemed at odds, connected through one shared interest: her, but now they’re connected by a myriad of different things, so Serena doesn’t know how she fits into that anymore. Which, again, is a very natural and human way to feel, but the writers took it in a direction that makes me Very Sad.

I do resent the Nate remark a little bit, bc I am very fond of him, my dear Pure of Heart, Dumb of Ass, Bi of Sexual. I do agree that the writers were not good to him, but in the beginning seasons gave a lot to explore. If you’re meaning is that he wasn’t a viable option as Serena’s potential partner during s5, well, neither was Dan, imo. I think Nate as a character of depth doesn’t get enough credit sometimes, he’s highly observant of other people, naturally kind and empathetic, and has a sense of ethics that is interesting to explore, at least until it hits a wall when it comes to his friendship with Chuck. Like, why Nate put up with him after season 3 is beyond me, but that is when the writers kind of...stopped believing in him as a character, and he really did become “the handsome vacant one” as Georgina puts it. But, as S (strideofpride) says, that’s #NotmyNate.

I mean that’s the real tragedy of the OG GG, for each character (except chip wiskers tbh) at one point the writers decided to lean in to the most cynical version of said character, and retconned any shred of humanity.

The PS tweet about fav couple just saw some clerith fan said Cloud already in love w/aerith ? Like how can he fall in love with a girl in less than two days (this is not disney)why do they ignore “it not real” line why are they in denial like i sure would not feel comfortable with that cause it not good to their pairing I’m ok with their pairing preference but don’t ignore the facts that against your pairing not being canon cause it not canon like why do they even think that ? Sorry new to ff7

Hey anon. 

The one positive about that Playstation post is how much Cloti is in the comments. The few C/A posts that were trying to twist facts are from the same accounts over and over when it comes to these posts. Some of them I can’t see because I’m blocked, so... if there’s more, I can’t see them.

There was an overwhelming amount of Cloti. I’d say the next were from Unchartered and TLoU2. Then I did see some C/A. Some of it was tame, people just saying “This is my favorite couple.” That’s fine to me.

Then you had some twisting it, saying he’s been searching for her for 23 years, that he’s been in love with her, that he fell for her. They’re using some old arguments, some non-canon sources, and some is just made up.

The resolution scene with Aerith is one of the most interesting in the game, and it’s a shame that for a while I couldn’t bring myself to watch it because of what people were saying online about it being a love confession. But I did, finally, and now  I’ve watched it a few times. It’s far from a love confession from either party.

 Aerith is the most important character in Remake. She says things and we need to listen, because everything has meaning. Cloud stares at the window of the house for the majority of it. He clenches his fist at one point - which is what he does specifically when thinking about Tifa or seeing Tifa in pain. @nibelheiim has a post about the fist clenching. For some reason I can’t find it right now, but it explains the hand symbolism in the game.

Aerith’s resolution was supposed to be the 3 minute plot points summary from the OG. She references Cloud’s issues and some future events. You say you’re new to FF7, so I’ll leave it at that in case you don’t know the full OG story or anything else from the compilation, and don’t want it spoiled. 

The best thing to do with those posts is ignore them and realize that - no - you’re not crazy, you didn’t miss anything. I went through this myself. Being a fan of FF for at least 20 years, I had no idea how nuts the fandom was, but I’ve found some really awesome people to talk to about my FF obsession, so it was worth it, even through the initial psychological turmoil I went through trying to figure out what the hell was going on. 

Normal shippers - the non-extreme ones - happily try to enjoy their ship, whether it’s canon or not, and don’t completely tear down other characters. I stay away from any “anti” folks. If it say “Anti Tifa” “Anti Aerith” or anything like that, not for me. I don’t like extremes on either side. I love the whole story, so I like the characters as well! But with shipping, the extremists make it seem like the entire game is about the relationship for their ship, and that’s sad. They’re missing out on so much good stuff....

LIKE VINCENT! Nobody talks about my boy Vincent, maybe they’d feel better if they did.

I do enjoy my Cloti, and my blog is mostly Cloti, but I will not twist facts to fit my ship - I don’t have to, though. It’s all there. I also enjoy posting about the other characters since I do love them all.

lord dipper i fear squidward anon and squiddy are the same no? ive been a lurker since like JUNE lmfao and i think theyre the same?? this blog is my keeping up w the kardashians so ill be crushed if im wrong LOL

KEEPIN UP W THE KARDASHIANS LMAOAO I LOVE TJAT. ANYWAYS, ANON LORE

now unless i’ve completely gone past the point of no return on the insanity chart, squidward anon and squiddy are nNAURT! the same. squidward anon was named when they sent an ask about cregan i think and said “the pic of squidward holding up a piece of paper is me rn”, and i named them squidward anon. not that i don’t love squiddy (spongebob voice) (love ya squiddy), but squiddy i think appeared after the time of og anons (why are the og anons literally my doom of old valyria….), unless they didn’t and just adorned the emoji, and i just forgot and have the intelligence of a frantic pregnant beaver in the sahara.

wait i started in march april may june junes your month this month and last month and late july (?) were crazy months march is out the question late april to may is a possibility…. okay squiddy, squidward anon, if u can hear us please stop taking selfies your sisters going to jail.

What is #OGAnonSearchParty?

i was gonna say something silly like wait actually i’m not going to say that ANYWAYS. allow me to add to the lore of her grace dipper

when my blog first started gaining traction, my favorite thing ever was anons (and still is, i literally love y’all sm sm sm), and so i took it upon myself to name them 😭 i named pondering anon, reverse elsa anon, gordon ramsey anon, spirit airlines anon, squidward anon (not to be confused with squiddy/🦑) etc. unfortunately (as you’ve seen my inbox) i think a lot of them got pushed toward the bottom/or just got busy, so i haven’t seen them in ages 💔💔

but pondering anon has returned!!! i get delighted everytimr i think about it.. anyways, among their delicious asks they asked where the og anons went and so i went on an #OGAnonSearchParty and scrolled all the way to the very bottom of my inbox to find and answer all the og anons i could!! and i think hashtagging is funny :3

#TheyreEatingTheDogs #DreamFaceReveal #HESUGLY #TrumpAssasinationAttempt #HOWDOYOUMISS #ONEJOB
