#ok there are too many characters to tag sue me

[cataclysticosmonaut]

Ok but hear me out.

[kocch]

this is a rambling post no one is gonna read but I GOTTA WRITE IT because i've watched the whole 911 show in the past five months and never really talked about it, so i gotta say some things that are important to me (some might be unpopular opinions idk i don't really know the fandom, i've only checked the tag in the past weeks for s8 and all i can see is mostly annoying fanwars about which ship is better)

my dash could be biased and tumblr itself could be biased for mlm ships BUT WHY DID I NOT KNOW THIS SHOW HAS LESBIANS. like. i'm gonna use the few screencaps i posted here on tumblr while i was binge-watching the show buT

they're everything they're the best they're all i've ever wanted and they're not talked about enough, i don't know if it's because they're a wlw ship and they're a BLACK wlw ship or it's just that they're an enstablished couple and all, but damn i wish i saw them more in my dash and here on the freaking gay website because they have given me so many emotions through the seasons and they're SOLID and i just love them so much :( of course i know karen is not always present because it's a procedural show and sometimes the characters disappear for episodes, but they've solidified 911 in my heart . because damn this show is QUEER and it has been queer since day 1

my top faves are chim maddie hen and buck ok i don't make the rules they're the best but I LOVE THEM ALL and i think one of the best things of this show is the found family concept. you just gotta love them all. even if sometimes they have crazy writing moments through the seasons (like when buck tried to sue 118 or when eddie left 118 jfefhrf)

i love LOVE LOVE 911 because of all the feelings, the found family, how inclusive it feels with all the queer storylines and how diverse the main cast is (but also the case-of-the-day cast too... i'm a fan of another procedural like fringe, it was the 2010 and it was the whitest thing ever, (and the production was racist too) things have changed) BUT IT'S still copaganda. athena grant is a lot of copaganda. the two things can coexist i can love her and despise her story at times ok.

i hope we get a great henren/madney storyline in season 8 because (they're literally my faves) they're the best. i kinda wish for chim and maddie to long for a second children, now that they have mara in their lives? I'm not sure, i just know i need more of them. they're literally . so good to me. they've captivated my heart in s2 and they never left. the potential chim and maddie had was so great, but timing, trauma, depression, many things were keeping them apart, and every win felt EARNED. i just think sometimes straights have rights and that's madney's case.

i love buck like anyone in the fandom, but i think part of the craze on tumblr is due to his bisexual storyline and i gotta say... i do enjoy bucktommy. atm they're cute. being silly and in the honeymoon phase. do i ship buddie? i do, there are so many GREAT things through the seasons that make you feel - wow they could be perfect together - but that doesn't mean i will hate on bucktommy for now (yeah, i know, tommy was horrible in the past, yeah he was closeted and repressed, yeah he could have been better, he was racist and homophobic, i know, but i guess he got better since the characters are ok with him? sometimes we'll never get that resolution on screen) (i think all of them had their bad moments as characters, i mean, i could open a whole file about athena being a bad cop and still she's everyone's faves)

getting back to buck i did love his bisexuality storyline and i love him BEING BISEXUAL, it's not about tommy or about eddie or about anyone it's about him being bisexual. in his early 30s. BUT I gotta say, for how writers have written these characters, for me it made so much more sense for eddie to turn out gay than buck having his bi moment (and it's because of the writing). it makes sense for buck to be bisexual because he has always loved women and he's tried to make his relationships work, unlike eddie, but then he found out he also like men. he had soo many queer hints around him and it's just. fitting. i love him to bits. i wish s7 was longer so we could get things a bit slower, the pace was fast but i loved it. AND DAMN buck was jealous of eddie because of tommy? or of tommy because of eddie? I wonder.

i'm not sure 100% they'll go with buddie for now, but maybe it's just i am not an optimistic per se and i wanna see where they go with eddie's personal growth BUT eddie is gay. he gotta be gay. that man only had one love in his life, shannon, and that love is an idea he has. he thinks they had a great love story, but the truth is that they met when they were young, she got pregnant, he ran away from her for years with the military stuff, then he came back and she ran away, then they got together but still she asked for divorce and then she died. he denies her leaving him because of an idea of something that never really existed. even if he loved her, i'm sure he did love her but, it wasn't something perfect or functioning like bathena henren and madney. eddie is a terrible romantic partner (he's a good dad, but a terrible guy to date lbr) and it's because he's gay. i know everyone in the fandom agrees but i gotta write it down ok. when he's forced to date he feels like he has to perform? he self-sabotage all his relationships with women?? his love stories always end because of him? he had panic attack because of committing to ana??? come on ? the marisol storyline?? That shit is insane if he isn't gay

and that's why i'm asking for eddie to come to terms with who HE REALLY IS without christopher in his life. he's not just chris dad. he gotta stop running away. they have the possibility to make a great storyline for him, after several weird seasons for the poor guy. he gotta understand and accept himself and then maybe he'll work out the things with his son. this is one of the most exciting storylines for s8 and i really hope we get it. if we don't we need a PROPER story that makes sense with all of that tbh.

i'm ok with buddie happening in another season tbh i just want eddie to come to terms with his sexuality. i just love good writing and this show has its great moments with characters and that's why i love it, because it has heart. it has incredible characters i love.

i do love bathena and bobby and athena even if it might not be obvious in this post hahah and i wish we could get back may and henry, i miss athena having actually children

ok new ramble (about newsies ocs) today so sit tight inside roosevelt's carriage and enjoy the ride

FIRST, I very much adore the world of newsies and the cast, and I so often think how interesting the story would play out with different roles or new characters--

SECOND, Sue me, but I like x readers, i LOVE x readers, i WRITE x readers and i love ocs and self inserts and If whoever reading this has rummaged through the newsies x reader tag, they'd see that quite often, the reader or oc is a newsie, or, a girlsie for whatever reasons, and, while that's pretty fun, I think that we could all totally have some fun with other types of dynamics and professions!!

I believe that Miss Medda and her theatre deserved to have a bit more lore and connection with the story OUTSIDE of Miss Medda herself. Do the newsies frequent the theatre? Are they friends with any of the singers, dancers, whatnot? Have THEY performed there once? Who's to think that the newsies haven't collaborated with Miss Medda to use her creative resources for activism during the strike (that would be very cool)?

Oh, and nothing gets me giggling, kicking my feet and feeling all giddy than a theatre romance-- Your OC/Reader performing the hell out of the show when they see a certain newsie in the audience? Writing a poem/song based off them, or, hell, for platonic feelings sake, dedicating a play to their strike?

And, hey, what about journalism? What about being Katherine's best friend? If you'd still like your oc/reader to be a newsie, what about for intentions different than "because I had to"/"I felt different"/ or the like? Maybe your oc is a journalist undercover as a newsie to get the latest details? Or, working under Pulitzer to spy on the newsies during their strike (Could lead to many different kinds of conflict, imo)

Maybe some of my examples could be leaning dangerously on the edge of historical inaccuracy, but, truthfully, I honestly don't care much? Might be a bad thing to say, but, so long as it isn't ENTIRELY inaccurate, I, personally, am not too nitpicky about any details!

This is not to say "Stop making your ocs newsies!", but, if you're writing with the idea to diversify or bring something new to the table, deviating from the common stuff is pretty cool. But if you're not, that's cool too, so long as it's not hurting anyone or everyone's having fun :-)

A week later saw Eddie and Chrissy in her garage moving boxes around and laying a huge blanket over a couch to make the space bigger and more comfortable. Both of them had brought their own amps and set them up too. They had even found an old mini fridge and stocked it with chocolate, cans of soda, and bottles of water ready for practice. 

"Hey bunny" Robin greeted Chrissy with a kiss as soon as she stepped into the garage later that evening, 

"Stop being so gross and put each other down." Eddie grumbled at the pair. 

"No need to be so homophobic, Munson" came the response of Steve as he also walked to the garage. 

"Yes, me, a bit of a whore in the local gay scene, homophobic, that checks out." Eddie rolled his eyes before he walked away and picked his guitar up and made sure it was in tune.

"Chrissy, where did you want me to set this up?" Steve asked Chrissy, pointing down at the big bag he had brought in with him.  

"Towards the back, kind of centre if you want, makes the most sense," Chrissy answered, pointing at a vague space towards the middle of the garage. 

“So Robin, this is the first time we’ve properly spoken since you started dating my little Chrissy, she won’t tell me so I know it’s got to be embarrassing, how did you and Chrissy get talking enough for you to end up together a few weeks later.” Eddie quizzed, noting Chrissy blushing out of the corner of his eye.

“Oh, there’s not really a lot to tell to be honest, she sat next to me on the bus, asked me what I was listening to, I said The Clash, she said she loves them, we listened together and then switched between our styles of music” Robin shrugged as Chrissy got redder and redder. 

“Fuck off did she, what a lying little bitch. Christina Cunningham, why would you tell such a lie? You hate The Clash, always have .” Eddie cackled, turning to look at Chrissy who was bright red and trying to hide behind her hair. 

“I just wanted to listen to music with the cute girl from band, ok? so sue me.” She replied, sighing, his reaction was exactly why she hadn’t told Eddie the full story when he asked weeks ago. “Can we just play something now please?”

Five minutes later and the band was ready to start playing together. Steve sat behind his drums and everyone else picked up their instruments.

"Chrissy, you want to start a beat on the bass? Steve, try not to sound like shit ok, we all know punk drums are a mess and don't hold a rhythm." Eddie said, getting himself comfortable with his guitar.

Chrissy started with a beat that Steve apparently knew the drums to, and soon enough Eddie was leaning into the mic and singing. 

"I sit around and watch the tube But nothing's on I change the channels for an hour or two Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit I'm sick of all the same old shit In a house with unlocked doors and I'm fuckin' lazy" Eddie sang as he started to play the guitar with it. 

"Bite my lip and close my eyes Take me away to paradise I'm so damn bored, I'm going blind And I smell like shit" Robin joined in the singing and playing her own guitar with him. 

The four of them played the whole song and didn't miss a beat, ending with all four of them laughing. 

Steve and Eddie caught each other's eyes and stopped laughing straight away.

"I guess for a couple punks you two can play well enough" Eddie sniffed, putting his guitar down and heading to the mini-fridge. 

"The fuck is your problem, Munson?" Steve asked defensively. 

"I just don't want us sounding just like noise, bad noise at that when we play." Eddie replied, whilst drinking his water.

"So what? All punk is just bad noise to you?" Steve questioned, standing up from his drums clearly unimpressed.

"Yeah, it is. Just bad drums, bad guitar, bad vocals. I guess it’s good that most punk songs are really short." Eddie shrugged. 

"Fuck you, punk is more than the music, more than the drums, guitar, and vocals. It's about the people, the lyrics, the message behind the songs." Steve seethed, moving towards Eddie. 

"Oh yeah, because metal isn't political at all?" Eddie asked, raising an eyebrow. 

"It's really not," Steve responded, clearly pissed off at the other brunette.

"Alright princess, sit down and let me play a few songs for you that show you that a song can be both political and actually good." Eddie rolled his eyes and grabbed his phone. 

"No, enough of this dick-measuring contest, ok. Either shut the fuck up so we can continue to play or take this tension to a bedroom, giving you 5 seconds to decide." Chrissy said loudly, pointing between the two of them.

"Chris, baby, we both know they aren't going to fuck just yet. They need to pretend to hate each other first before it happens" Robin laughed. 

Both boys stepped away from each other. Eddie drank more of his water and Steve went to grab his own, throwing one to Robin who caught it without looking.

"I'm down to play more if Munson can stop being a bitch and play something that isn't just loud guitar and screaming." Steve shrugged, sitting down behind the drums again.

"I give it 3 weeks before they're fucking" Robin giggled, earning her a death glare from Steve.

“Well that was fun,” Robin said sitting in the passenger seat of Steve’s car. “It was really nice to spend more time with Chrissy. I still haven’t asked her to be my girlfriend by the way. Do you think she’ll say yes? I’m not sure she wants that.” she continued to ramble. 

“It was something, I really hope he gets that stick out of his ass before next practice, I can't be bothered with that each time. But yes, she will say yes if you ask her out.” Steve said, sounding exasperated. 

“You just want the stick out of his ass so you can stick…”

“You can walk home if you finish that sentence,” Steve interrupted her. 

Robin laughed, buckled her belt, and sat back in her seat. Steve sighed, started the car, and drove her home. Neither of them talked about how right she was.

“Eddie, can you play nicely with Steve next time we have practice? I’d really like this band thing to work, ok? Even if it doesn't really go anywhere I want to have fun and enjoy this.” Chrissy pleaded. 

“Fine I’ll play with the punk jock so you can have fun with your girlfriend” Eddie replied dodging a half-empty bottle Chrissy threw at him before falling over dramatically. “Tell my mother I love her,” he said, throwing himself to the ground clutching his arm.

“Lord help me” Chrissy laughed.

The following week after the first practice found them all sat around in Chrissy’s garage talking about the band and the music they should play. 

“We write enough songs between us, we could just do original stuff. I will say this isn't bad, Munson” Steve commented, reading through Eddie’s finished songs and notes for other songs. 

“Approval from Harrington, just what I've always wanted” Eddie replied, rolling his eyes. 

“Eddie for fuck’s sake, that's enough. He was being nice and you were a peanut head! That wasn't nice at all.” Chrissy snapped, punching his arm lightly. 

“Yeah, you're right. I'm sorry” Eddie mumbled in the direction of Steve. 

“Shall we talk about band names?” Robin put in, trying to change the subject. 

“ My list for names so far is this,” Eddie said, turning to a page in his notebook and turning it so everyone could read.

Corroded Coffin 

Be My Coffin

Your Coffin

Six Feet Under

Corroding My Coffin

Distort Mission

“They all suck to various degrees” Chrissy replied, pushing the notebook back towards Eddie. 

The four of them sat around for another 20 minutes or so discussing band names before Robin finally suggested The Spitfires. 

“Yes, I love it,” Chrissy said excitedly. 

“Of course you love the only one Robin suggests” Steve commented, rolling his eyes, earning him a laugh from Eddie.

Sunshine is just argumentatively not a good nickname for me.” Rev said, crossing his arms and glaring at Richie. Richie just smiled goofily, thrilled to be back out in the air with Reverie. “But it’s always sunshine when I see you, Rev! My day just brightens up.

1, 10, and 15 for the choose violence ask game :)

THIS IS A LONG ONE SORRY. I guess I had violence in my heart.

1. The character everyone gets wrong

Ok im aware this is like the most predictable answer for me but its true. CLARA!!! People don't get her at all and it absolutely infuriates me, because she's pretty much the only companion in nuwho who is hated to this extent (ie, people saying mean shit about her on my posts ABOUT HER) Oh does she annoy you by having the exact same traits as the doctor? Do you not like her egotistical and controlling behavior? I wonder why. Perhaps there is a point there.

Sidenote - it annoys me when people will call her a mary sue and simultaneously get mad at her being an asshole and yk, having character flaws, as if those terms aren't mutually exclusive & her hyper-competence that gets read as "mary sue" isn't an intentional choice by the narrative and a result of her being DEEPLY unwell in other aspects of her life.

I feel like a lot of people judge her based on the second half of s7 which, to be fair, is awful and I don't think they knew what they were doing with her yet. But in the context of her whole run she is genuinely one of the most evocative characters to come out of doctor who for me, especially in the way she serves as a kind of commentary and subversion of companions as a whole. I genuinely could talk about clara forever but yeah I do feel like a lot of the hate comes from the fact that people Don't Get Her.

And then among fans who do there's always a risk that they see her as this blank slate twee girl to self-project onto which again, to be fair, is how she was written in season 7. But so many things from supposed fans of her as well that I'll read and be like she would not fucking say that. she does not have the emotional awareness to say that. and/or she is not like a uwu quirky shy girl she would fucking speak her mind about that. She is deranged and I love her. I have to shut up abt clara or this will be the whole post.

10. Worst part of fanon

I honestly cant get TOO annoyed with doctor who fanon because i am a comics fan AND a danny phantom fan and its surprisingly common practice for people in both those fandoms to be a "fan" of something they have not consumed the media for in any form, resulting in this horrible mess of fanon with no connection to what makes the original compelling. + doctor who is such a mess of canon anyway basically everything has been canon at some point even if its shit.

But I think in the end the worst part of DW fanon is, like all fanon, the flattening of really compelling characters to fit trope archetypes. I see this especially with tenrose, where they're just turned into this kind of generic ship that you can plug n play into any situation with little connection to the interesting ways they actually behave in canon.

As a kind of interesting reversal, though, fanon will often expand out dw's most generic characters (ie most chibnal companions. sorry), but only for the purposes of shipping and not in ways I myself find particularly interesting. Like imo Yaz is probably the least developed chibnal companion but pretty much the only one I see expanded on in this way because of the shipping potential.

15. that one thing you see in fanart all the time

im probably gonna get slaughtered for this but i think maybe weve had enough crowley in doctor who outfits or 10 meeting crowley fanart. maybe im bitter because i dont really care about the GO show and I feel like it fills up the dw tag to the brim these days

[m1ckeyb3rry]

LMAOO dw it’s just part of your character development that’s honestly really funny (the way that you always find crazy people around you is also kinda crazy LMAO not even kidding you really did get the “it’s for the plot/character development” treatment

So real it’s definitely not ALL animanga but you can tell there’s some that just let the art or style carry actually I think you bring up a really good test though!! Like if you can co very it into a light novel and have it still be good then you know there’s at least some substance beyond just the visual effects…omg the jjk discourse about the female cast fr irks me like guys even maki is NOT developed enough like she fr is always just alluded to as tojis copy so??? Bro angel/hana’s treatment was actually foul I’m ngl I barely even remembered her until I saw her in the second to last chapter and immediately face palmed like bro why…..but yeah jjk is definitely not AWFUL awful but not as peak as everyone screams about

Oh definitely orv cast is developed and actually relevant also yess i love the platonic relationships and dynamics!!! Kdj and hsy are so funny LMAO I love seeing that kinda found family/platonic connection with kdj and co.

LMAOO so real like there’s chronically online but then there’s an even more extreme where it’s really “do you ever see the sun” but speaking of that post you reblogged made me giggle “are you pro or anti ship” “I have a life” LMAOOOOOOOO so real like it’s really not that deep guys

DDHSHS people on wattpad fr cannot handle reader not being the Mary Sue ultimate it girl with a reverse harem also to the people saying it’s perfect except the OCs bro it wouldn’t be the same without the ocs like let’s be real please and yeah like ESPECIALLY since it’s not even a commission of any sorts maybe you were just posting for the sake of being able to read it all through wp formatting and platform too, why people have the audacity to actually spew shit like that is beyond me like ok it’s not your story though??? And you really took the effort of writing out a comment to say this it’s much faster to just click the close tab button?? It’s like they comment thinking that you’ll go back and edit out all instances of your ocs??? Honestly disappearing off wp is such a mood

LMAO yeah I’ll definitely casually watch the anime because at least the animation usually has some cool scenes too but nothing all too serious after knowing what happens (actually I’m excited for the memes to come when the Yuta and cockroach curse get animated HAHA)

SHSGSHSHS it’s ok if you end up converting there’s a good chance that at some point I’d follow suit knowing us but the opposite sides of a war trope is actually so interesting I haven’t read anything with that in awhile?? Just generally not even on tumblr so many possibilities for adding in complexities and depth…wc Kunigami esp with the angst and the whole transformation of wc

REAL when kaneshiro fails yk Mira’s got you….still baffles me how yukis been sidelined (literally) sm WAIT AHAHAHAH im crying if it were otoya instead of yuki fwtkac i can imagine it where instead of reading looking at yukis account during that lunch scene she’s looking at otoyas profile and karasus like “bruh his hair looks like a fucking leek you like this one???” And then he enters the room where they play tag and he’s like “HOLY SHIT ITS THE LEEK DUDE YOU MF” while otoyas trying to think which of the fifty dates he went on karasus referring to

Ok good LMAO ik sometimes when people type on a keyboard they’re wrists get tired which is why the buy wristpads so jic that was you I didn’t wanna be making you type a whole essay response like normal LOL WAIT GAHAHAH the recent one where sae goes “this goal is still lukewarm” and literally has the whole genie looking trail this is too good

LMAO I’m gonna be honest most of the media I consume usually isn’t for the romance factor anyways like I usually watch kdramas after seeing like a cliffhanger betrayal/dramatic moment so I don’t even mind that it’s not super romantic LOL I agree having some crack shenanigans content is good it balances out the angst and romance

LMAOOOO noted I will take this calibration into account in the future o7 but YEAHHHH PURSUIT very hype

- Karasu anon

PLEASEEE i have made so many opps in my life and honestly i know there’s a saying that if you make enemies out of a lot of people you’re the problem but i really don’t think i am?? like i always try to self reflect and i definitely have been villainous in the past as has everyone but there’s a startling amount of people that dislike me for dumb reasons JHSFSD omg it’s so bad

whenever i think of dropping someone i’m like oh was i the bad person in this situation but being objective i hardly am 😭 this girl i think was just really jealous of me and so took the opportunity to put me down at any opportunity (she was also lowkey islamophobic and as almost half of my family is muslim i did not find her jokes terribly funny) and she was also one of the ones that like if i liked a guy she was suddenly OBSESSED with him meanwhile they wouldn’t even know who she was?? like she’d go up and talk to whatever guy i idly said was cute and they’d literally be like “who are you lol” 😰 there’s a lot of weird stuff w her she’s also HUGE into jjk and jjk x readers so i’ve always been terrified she’ll find my account hence why i don’t ever do face reveals or post pictures of things she might recognize (like my dogs…we had already stopped being friends by the time i started riding cloudie so i’m not scared of posting him) she only ever read on ao3 and didn’t try to figure out tumblr + she liked gojo choso and nanami none of whom i’ve written for so i probably would be safe but it’s still a thought in the back of my mind…anyways…

RIGHT like can you make a light novel out of this?? then it’s probably good…i think blue lock is a good counterexample actually where the story is very much so enhanced by the visuals because it’s a sport animanga but i think the sports genre is a little exempt from that test because who wants to read about sports KFHSD idk if that makes sense ANYWAYS everyone always says that jjk’s female cast is good as if not sexualized automatically equals well written…like yes gege did more for them in the sense that they were at least mostly covered up but that’s about where he began and ended 😭 BRO HANA GET BEHIND ME the way everyone hates her too i honestly just wish she got better treatment back when i was into jjk i LOVED her i honestly could write an entire essay about how i would’ve preferred she be written (like i did w kuni and yuki) but tbh the story started going downhill shortly after her introduction so idek where i’d start…suffice to say i would’ve had her be alluded to much earlier, not had her be obsessed with megumi (i think a romance between them could’ve been thematically and visually very lovely but NOT how it was handled and not given the fanbase jjk has), and expanded on the angel vs sukuna beef especially how that might’ve impacted the hana and yuji dynamic 😩 i think gege had the same problem as kaneshiro where there’s just too many characters but unlike bllk, there’s a much more expansive world in jjk too and that would’ve allowed for in depth exploration of more characters without slowing the story terribly if only that was a consideration yk

i don’t think jjk is horrible either!! there are a lot of things i enjoyed about it and i wouldn’t say it’s the worst thing to come out ever — it also suffers from having such a large fanbase that people are going to be disappointed no matter what direction gege goes in, so i have to give him that; however, agree, it’s not as peak as everyone says it is, and i think it’s fanbase would do well to recognize it for what it is (a normal shounen with slightly more gore but also with the regular pitfalls of the genre) sometimes i think the ending wouldn’t have been as disappointing if it hadn’t been hyped into smth beyond what it actually is yk 🤔 and honestly i don’t think it’s a failure of jjk to be that LMAO blue lock is very much so in that category and i still love that!! mostly because it is self aware and doesn’t try to do more than it has the capability for…instead it takes genre conventions and works inside them/expands on them (ego vs teamwork, the backstories of characters like snuffy) to maximize its impact?? idk if that makes sense HAHA like at the end of the day kaneshiro included anri’s hip waist bust measurements in the egoist bible and she’s also the only somewhat main female character so he’s not trying to beat the bad female cast allegations whatsoever he fr just threw chigiri in and called it a day but it works?? because he didn’t sit and say “hm how can we defy everyone’s expectations and astound the world” he was just like “ok soccer manga time”

I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE ARE SO PRESSED ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE’S SHIPS like i literally do NOT care i ship zero characters it absolutely does not matter to me…only ships that are important are nagimira, miraeita, and tabimira otherwise idgaf /j fr though like how hard is it to just scroll and ignore when you don’t like smth 😰 also the entire school of thought (mostly from 15> year olds) that you should just stop engaging in fandom or liking characters or whatever after the ripe elderly age of 20 is SO FUNNY but also insane like who do you think is writing the fics you enjoy?? i have many thoughts on it that would get me cancelled but to me the line is like “okay if the mangaka/anime studio drew the exact same character and said they were 20 would i believe them?? if so it’s whatever if not that’s a little weird” for example when i was a kid watching indigo league i liked gary oak LMAOOO but now i wouldn’t like him because he very obviously looks like a kid yk?? but there is functionally no difference in the way that megumi, inumaki, and ino from jjk are drawn despite them all being wildly different ages it’s truly just arbitrary and in my experience a lot of shounen is just adults writing stories about other adults and then making them be “in high school” to appeal to their target audience and make their characters be more relatable to high school boys aka the main readers 😭 anyways at the end of the day people like to police stuff like that a lot so i don’t really share my thoughts on it but it really is just live and let live i promise you whatever character you’re defending does NOT care that people are writing fics about them they are literally just lines on a page…

PEOPLE ON WATTPAD ARE INSANEEEE bro (related to the earlier point) it’s the same people that complain about adults liking characters that start spamming the most insanely foul sexual things at the age of thirteen like how do you even know what any of those words mean?? forget about saving yuta okkotsu from anne at accounting who likes to read fics about him after work SAVE HIM FROM THE TWEEN FANGIRLS THAT WOULD GET HIS ASS ARRESTED ‼️ since we’re applying irl morals to fiction and all it very much so is illegal the other way too 😭 anyways yeah they always have smth to complain about like if y/n isn’t a reverse harem lead with every single guy at her feet, every power in the world, cringy “cold” personality where she’s uber strong and tells people to commit, and isn’t lame asf they go insane?? people complain in the early chapters of pomegranate ink that it’s “embarrassing” how reliant the reader is on noritoshi and how she’s always sucking up to him…like hmm…let’s apply some critical thinking here…why would she (who’s been told her entire life that she’s good for nothing but bearing heirs, has been essentially locked in her room for her whole childhood, is considered “worthless” because she didn’t inherit her family’s powers, and was almost married off to NAOYA ZENIN) be grateful to the one man who allowed her to have her own agency and treated her like an equal??? why would she be unsure in herself?? why would she ask for help constantly and think she’s weak??? also when they complain about her being weak omg please this story is 200k words i’m sorry she doesn’t start off strong but that would literally be so boringgggg it’s all about the slow development!! by the end of the story she’s brought someone back to life, is a grade sorcerer, defeats a special grade curse (because lbr she could’ve gone all of the way and killed jogo if it weren’t for plot needing him to be around longer), takes control of her ENTIRE CLAN, talks shit to sukuna’s face and then is instrumental in his defeat COME ONNNN SHE’S NOT WEAK FOREVER GIVE HER TIME she’s been abused for years it’ll take her a sec!! and speaking of abuse don’t get me started on the way they talk about reader’s mother LFKJHSDLKFJ they fr act like she’s the true villain when she’s in no better of a situation than reader 😭 actually things are worse for her because she has no one but her daughter left and her relationship with reader only just starts healing in pomegranate…god forbid we have complex female characters though!!

HELP if i convert to itoshism i’m dragging you down with me i can’t do it alone!! and i think opposite sides of a war necessitates writing a conflict that isn’t black and white (or else one of the characters would be evil and that’s usually looked down upon) hence why most authors steer clear as that can be difficult to do without making any one side into a villain HAHAHA maybe one day i’ll tackle the challenge again!! believe it or not i have done so previously in ship in the harbor and ig i did it well enough people seemed to like it…who knows LMAO

PLEASE THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING like fwtkac reader posts a picture of herself and otoya on a date and karasu swipes up on the story with an entire paragraph about how her new boyfriend is ugly horrendous hideous nasty fresh out of the swamp and whatever other insults fwtkac bestie came up with meanwhile reader is just like ?? your hair can be measured with a protractor ?? LSKFHSDKFJH omg there would fr be no tabieita it would be tabiken and then otoya would just be there because karasu will never forgive the “shrek lookalike” that almost stole his girl…wait that reminds me that according to hiori fwtkac reader is the only girl karasu follows on social media??? idk but that’s making me laugh rn because i think i wrote that he’s friends with all of reader’s friend group but he’s just so loyal to this girl who absolutely despises him that he won’t follow any other females but her 😭 honestly for all of her academic genius looking back fwtkac reader is so dumb because how did she not read between the lines there…

HAHA DW i’m all good!! i’ve recently begun responding to your asks on my ipad instead of my iphone which is why my responses have gotten exponentially longer and less emoji riddled LMAOO so it’s been chill!! responding on my ipad also means no random glitching out since i’m doing it on the website which auto saves drafts iirc so double win fr

LMAOO if you do end up watching it lmk how it goes!! and yeahhh if i’m ever going to go on a long hiatus i’ll make it explicitly clear like you will be able to tell without question that i’m gone otherwise it’s probably just me being silly HAHAH anyways this ended up being a bunch of random unrelated rants i’m sorry 😭

Ty for the tag friend!

Nickname: Um… for family it’s bug or Kaylabug and it’s just kinda stuck. And sometimes it’s KK, but only my siblings get that nickname privilege. I don’t really have one on here.

Height: y’all are gonna bully me. I’m 5 ft 1” 💀

Last thing I googled: “Was the word Fuck around in the 1940s? Was it used during WWII?” I’m a history graduate. Sue me. And I’m writing a WWII Byler fic where Will probably dies 🤪🥲

Song currently stuck in my head: I don’t know why but it’s that “you’re so vain” song that I keep hearing on TikTok and never looking up. That, and High Infidelity by Taylor Swift. And Girl at Home. Basically T Swift on repeat.

Followers: let’s just say, I have more on my Wattpad, Pinterest, and Instagram than I do on tumblr. I think I have 30? Idek. I don’t check, but I love all of you all the same! ❤️ thanks for following my lil gremlin self.

Wearing: black leggings, and my trashed white painting t-shirt, because I’m finishing Christmas gift paintings last minute. (This was a week ago at 4 am ok?)

Book/Movie that summarizes me:

Um… that’s a tough one. I don’t know that much summarizes me in all honesty.

Book: Published. . . Uhh Percy Jackson for the ADHD. And unpublished, probably Throne of a Thief (it’s my own unpublished book that I sort of horcruxed myself and friends of mine into the characters… and it’s been useful in delving into my personal trauma.)

Not sure on movies, so, I’ll go with both movies and TV shows?

Movie: Back to The Future trilogy

TV show: Stranger Things. I literally live in Middle of Nowhere - scenery is cornfields and woods- Indiana. My house? Is in the middle of the woods like the Byer’s Indiana home is. I just have horses too. It’s bad enough that I forget that the show is set in my state, I keep finding demogorgon hunter bumper stickers because Indiana peeps have really gotten into it. I have also… really gotten into it. And I like that the Duffers found Indiana so boring that we got the Upside Down after having to adjust for the show background. . . I’ve had too much supernatural shit happen in my life to not assume ghosts and stuff exist.

OH and Reign. The episode in S2 with Mary - where the song “Take Control of Who You Are” plays, that one helped me a lot when I went through a similar situation. (I don’t want to go in depth for fear of triggering someone else, but that really helped me find myself again.)

Favorite Song: I have too many. I’m gonna go with Girl at Home by Taylor Swift, because it’s been on repeat in my head. (I’m also writing a very sad Byler fic to that one. Basically it’s literal chaos and I like to cause my readers pain.) If we’re talking 80s, then it’s Twist of Fate because my pony is registered as “Twist of Fate” and I used that song for my last freestyle competition after 10 years of 4H.

Aesthetic: What’s that? No, but seriously, anything comfy? Like those cute twinkly string lights? And vibey led lights? That’s my bedroom. I have a mini couch and a reading nook by my window. If we’re talking Tumblr blog aesthetic, I don’t have one.

If we’re talking like- my aesthetic as a person? Dark Green pictures of trees when it rains. Toss some yeehaw cowgirl shit in- the cool y’alternative kind, mixed in with a lot of colors? Paint all over my hands half the time. Or charcoal. Add a splash of Nancy Wheeler’s wardrobe, pitch in my sister calling me a grandma, add in Adventurer extraordinaire bc I love hiking, gold earrings and necklaces- I like playing with them when I’m nervous. Idk pitch in some dark and light academia with tons of dusty but good smelling old history books, notebooks with love letters to friends and sketchbooks with doodles all the time - if it isn’t real paper I don’t feel like I’m writing, lab coats and chemistry and STEM, pitch in a rogue chaotic neutral half-elf 5 ft dnd character, and ‘oh you’re the horse girl from middle school’, toss a bunch of stray animals that I’ve adopted in, add a dash of hopeless romantic and that’s my aesthetic. It’s a hot mess is what it is.

Fav. author(s): This says a lot about a person. But also, I don’t know that I have one. There’s so many books on my To Read list, it’s crazy.

Rick Riordan- I grew up with Percy and it made me feel seen as someone with ADHD.

C.S. Lewis- I was hooked on Narnia, and I have my mom’s copies from when she was a kid. The covers are falling off, but now they just live in the series sleeve in my bookshelf.

Dream Job: Uh… I’ve wanted to be a veterinarian since I was six… but I’m starting to think that being a historian with an equine focus could be much cooler. I just applied to Vet School this past summer… I still don’t know if it’s a commitment I’m ready to make and I don’t even know if it truly want to go. And my parents keep pushing me towards it, lest I make a mistake and not go and regret it for 20 plus years… but what if I regret it now and can’t live my life because I go? I want to help people, and animals, and that’s all I’ve ever wanted, but I also need to have time for myself.

Random Fact: Stranger Things made me realize that I was bisexual. Okay… I had been questioning it for a very long time, somewhere in the back of my mind, but realized after I fell in love with Robin’s character.

And then found that I might have a crush(read: possibly in love with) on my college bestie/roommate and I am too chicken shit to ruin a 5 year friendship with the one person I can trust with my life and will take care of me when I puke from doing a stupid and combining my liquors (wine and vodka) and then offer to drive me, in my car, to McDonald’s nasty drive thru when I can’t even eat apple sauce without puking. She would fight a 6 foot man and win for me and everyone deserves to have an Amber. Correction: she has almost fought a 6ft man for me and would have won had he not been 2 hours away. Everyone also deserves to have a Mikayla, who will threaten to beat someone’s ass and then you two have adhd chaos hours together.

Sorry, that’s on oversharing. Mike Wheeler must’ve possessed me there because you totally say that about your platonic friends.

Anyways.

No pressure to do this, and I’m sorry if you’ve been tagged already! Also I really don’t think I know 15 people but we’ll try it out.

Klaroline Fic Rec: Quiet Light

Quiet Light by @definedareasofuncertainty✨

So I figured it was maybe time I started writing my fic recs again. I can't commit to a whole week or month of recs, but every now and then I will come out with a new one to one of the stories I have read recently! Already have a few in mind. 👀 Decided to start with Quiet Light by @definedareasofuncertainty, and the fact this is my birthday gift is only *part* of the reason. This is also an amazing story I think more people should be reading! (It's a Klaroline story, even though it has Carolijah as well, but since I am *me*, I decided to go with a Carolijah moment that had my heart in shatters - Luiza knows which scenes I'm thinking about here - also because they're so beautiful and I don't want to waste a chance to use some Carolijah edits, OKAY? Sue me.) Summary: Caroline Forbes sets off to the Bahamas with her boyfriend, Elijah, where she'll finally meet his brother for the first time. But as it turns out... she knows Klaus Mikaelson a little too well. Why you should read it: I'm biased to talk about this fic because it was written *for me*, but also I am *not* biased at all because this story is fantastic whether it's your birthday gift or not. And it has for sure turned into something so, so much bigger than I ever imagined it would be when I started pestering the hell out of @definedareasofuncertainty to write it.

. Here's what I thought Quiet Light would be: funny, light-hearted, rom-com-ish type of story about a lil misunderstanding that lead to awkward yet incredibly hilarious situations. . What Quiet Light actually is: an incredibly mature, deep and loaded study of relationships and self-discovery.

I'll start by saying Quiet Light is definitely not for everyone. I know that, and so does the author, which is why the story has been very well tagged and the A/N is filled with warnings. If you choose to disregard those, then it's your own problem. Do not go blaming the writer for not writing the story you wanted them to. It deals with certain subjects not everyone will be comfortable with, and that's fine. But the thing about it is that you should look past the actions and what you feel about them and really see what the story is about. I don't condone some of Caroline's actions in the story (and Lord knows how many SCREAMING comments I have left Luiza lol I'M SORRY, OK? DEFENDING ELIJAH'S RIGHTS IS MY ENTIRE BRAND), but you don't have to approve of what she does in order to still enjoy it. Quiet Light is about so much more than the hard, cold facts. It's such a mature take on relationships and how sometimes people screw up and do things they don't mean to. Nobody is ever 100% right, and nobody is ever 100% wrong. People are complicated and things aren't always pretty or neat. Not all relationships, no matter how good they might be on the surface, are perfect or truly fulfilling, and sometimes people figure that out in incredibly messy ways. What I love about Quiet Light is that you can see so clearly how Caroline chooses the path of least resistance because she had been burned before, and thinks that this is where she went wrong, by jumping head-first into the unknown with a guy she'd only spent one night with. But while things with Elijah are totally *fine*, it never really puts her heart at ease. Caroline, as in canon, is someone who tries to make herself fit a mold of expectations that aren't necessarily *hers*, but rather what she thinks it should be. But the truth is her heart longs for more. She seeks adventure and a love that will shake her whole world. When that proves to break her heart, she forces herself to settle for less. And then, when faced with the possibility of having all of that again, she ends up acting in a completely crazy way that makes her feel terrible later - but also gives her some much needed answers. Her relationships with Klaus and Elijah are perfect ways to understand Caroline's character, and the differences between the two are so, so amazing. There are some VERY powerful scenes in the story that had me going 😢😢😢 And my heart went to Elijah so, so many times. This is a story that definitely made me FEEL MANY THINGS. 😭😭 Luiza's writing is amazing, that's not news, but she really reaches some PEAKS here with the punches she packs and the emotional turbulence in some parts of the story. Her way to evoke sensations and get you right in the mood of things hits you right in the feels, and I think that's what makes it all the more powerful. I cannot recommended it enough. Beware of the tags and warnings and you'll be good! It's not finished yet, but it should be soon! And I know there are some surprises coming in the last chapter............. 👀 Thank you so much for writing and sharing with us, friend!

[the-sinful-voice-witch]

Ok so... It's time i give my opinion about the Sonic movies since they made me swallow the words of doubt I've been having since the very first announcement but who could blame my skepticism? There's barely any good movie based on a videogame and I didn't want Sonic to be more tarnished and HELL after seeing this thing 👇👇👇👇👇😬😬😬 this fucking thing!:

Why must you traumatize me this way?😭😭😭 What the hell with those teeth 😨😨😨? Eeeeeeeeee

Well sue me for being distrustful about having a good sonic movie! Also after Sonic X, which is ironically the only sonic show i liked for the sole reason of having Knuckles x Rouge content since I couldn't stand the rest of characters! Specially that damn useless, bland, boring, clingy tag along kid!🤬🤬🤬 I wasn't very enthusiastic about having humans with any protagonism 😤😤😤 and doctor eggman first looks didn't appeal me (because I didn't think he would change it to a more accurate appearance 😅)

The point is I stubbornly refused to acknowledge the existence of the first movie, not even with the new kawaii cutie more accurate redesign 🥰🥰🥰

Not even after being told that tails would appear in the sequel and while I was watching the first sequel trailer and I was pleased with what I saw i still remained stubborn until... HE APPEARED 😳😳😳🤯🤯🤯💘💘:

Damnit Idris Elba 😖😖😖 and also Spain Spanish voice actor with your stupid sexy smooth velvet deep voices!!! (As a voice actress I'm a sucker for voices...🤭🤭) Stop pulling out my furro side with knuckles 🙈🙈🙈!! And sexy voices! My ears are sensitive 😳😳😳

And just like that with a: "do I look like i need your power" my willpower banished! 😌😌😌 (I need a t shirt with that sentence 🤩🤩) You won Sonic movie, i watched you because I had to see the sequel ASAP and you shut my mouth and my doubts 🙇🙇🙇 forgive me!

And here my opinion of the first movie: Usually I'm not a fan of Sonic alone, i like it better when there's more characters because in all the versions (except Sonic boom) I've seen of Sonic he is... Well in all the shows before sonic X he is a bit repellent... And then in Sonic X he had a dislikable personality like he was "too cool for everything", he was so free... "Oh I don't like to be attached to anything", "im a free spirit..." "I joke and I'm so cool and I barely have any flaws and I'm only vulnerable in specific few very few moments..."🙄🙄🙄🙄 Ajjj he and Amy had the worst personalities, they were flanderized 😒😒😒 i couldn't ship them in that show like Rouge and knuckles because it was just terrible 😔 but here in the movie i adored his personality because he HAS FLAWS AND HE IS VULNERABLE! this is surprising because according to Ian Flynn writer of IDW comics SEGA for whatever stupid reasons doesn't want Sonic showing strong emotions, he always has to be cool...🙄🙄🙄 (Still i think Ian tried to make him as relatable as he could and improved Amy rose so Kudos!) and condescending and even when he is seen with his friends or at least with just tails he is always portrayed wanting to be alone, free alone on his own blah blah ajj But in this movie Sonic is lonely, he doesn't like to be on his own! He suffers being alone, he has facial expressions that feel like he is about to cry, he has emotions! He wants to play baseball with people and have fun and he is clumsy 😂😂, a complete dork, he makes bad jokes and acts goofy!! He tries to be cool but fails 😆! HE ACTS LIKE WHAT HE IS: A KID! i mean a 15 old teenager but that's a kid 🤭 and he is so lonely he pretends he is part of the family of a couple of humans he sweetly admires! I mean don't you see? Mister "I'm too cool for everything" and "I'm always my way on my own" feels lonely, shows sadness and looks up to people he secretly watches he pretends he is one of them??? I LOVE HIM! He became more wholesome and relatable! 🥰🤗😖😖😖♥️ Before him the only sonic i liked was ironically (because I hate so many things of that show) sonic boom Sonic and it was because since that show was made only with comedy purposes he was made... Not exactly too cool for everything but more like a wannabe cool hero, he had many flaws, we never see him vulnerable because of the comedy but he is sassy and cynical and silly 😂😂😂 and he doesn't seem to like being all alone on his own(he was like that in the game but learned his lesson) he spends a lot of time with his friends and because of all that i found him more likeable.

And that brings me to talk about the humans: oh dear lord donut and lady pretzel, forgive this fool for thinking you would be like that obnoxious tag along useless kid!🙇🙇🙇

This time instead of a clingy kid who follows around the too cool for everything Sonic who acts as a too cool hedgehog big brother who has to rescue him (like Amy🙄).... Since this time Sonic acts his age and it's lonely they have a father-son relationship, tom is his caretaker, it was so wholesome seeing them both with flaws helping each other and bonding over deep moments! And Maddie...💘💘💘 Pulled my gay side out! Seriously Maddie o my Maddie 😍😍😍😍 🥵🥵🥵🥵💘💘💘💘 I'm so in love with her!!! She is so beautiful, so pretty, so kind.... kyaaaaaaaaaaaa The best part of this is that they didn't use a dramatic bullshit plot to make them interesting, they are just a supportive with each other, affectionate loving couple! (No trace of stupid cliche drama to force them to be relatable and interesting like fucking Chris in Sonic x🙄🙄🙄, stupid tag along clingy brat... Little Jojo was more likeable than you and only showed up a moment) And they have a dog and Sonic gets jealous of the dog 😖😖😖😖😖 and they become a family!!!!!! YEEEEESSSSSSS and of course Jim Carrey's Eggman was marvelous!! Perfect mix of sadism, crazyness, evilness... And the fighting scenes were perfect so yeah I've never been so happy to be wrong about a movie 👏👏👏👏😭😭😭

See you in my next post to comment the wonderful sequel!!💋💋💋👋👋👋

C2077 Misty INSP Set

Here is my first set of conversions from CDPR’s Cyberpunk 2077, inspired by one of my favorite characters, the occult store owner and nurse Misty Olszewski.

This set includes 31 items:

12 deco clutter: tarot, skull, hookah, incense (WA EP REQUIRED), 2 dragons, lion, tea cannister, maneki-neko

8 wall lights: Esoterica sign, neon stencils, shop price tags for shelves, and 5 tube lights

5 CAS items: shirt, shoes, hair (HEAVILY FLAWED), and 2 necklace ACCs (SN EP REQUIRED for fit/fat morphs)

2 wall decor: posters & sequins

1 table light (high poly)

1 armchair

1 1-tile wall shelf (cloned from the 2-tile shelf from ITF EP)

1 basegame column retexture

Enjoy, dashis and choombas!

Download set (package files) : Mediafire | SimFileShare

Descriptions & preview pics under the cut:

Most of the stuff is pretty self-explanatory, but just a few quick things to point out:

The Tube Lights were made so that I could recreate Misty’s shop facade, so there are a few different styles:

I tried arranging the Tarot Cards to match each of Misty’s card readings for V (they are SUPER SPOILER ALERTS for each of the different game endings). I say TRIED, cuz the game would glitch out and the cards would go invisible so I couldn’t see all the effing spreads! >_< So I just winged it.

Misty’s CAS CC

As for Misty’s CAS items, I already warned y'all that the Hair was effed up; I can’t make it any better, sorry. :( But her Shirt, Shoes & Necklace(s) came out ok. There are 2 Necklaces (SUPERNATURAL EP REQUIRED for fit/fat morphs) cuz one is made bulky for Misty’s top, and the other is slimmer for tight shirts.

Bunch of Stuff

The Neon Stencil wall lights have 2 recolorable variations I’m rather proud of, cuz I had to make them from scratch, since I couldn’t find the effing meshes or textures anywhere in this game’s bogus frikkin files don’t get me started.

The Chair is found under Living Chairs.

The Table Light is pretty HIGH POLY, so be careful using too many.

The Posters are just a bunch of random ones I liked; they’re nowhere near all of them though, cuz laziness.

Bunch of Clutter

Everything’s either under Misc Deco or Sculptures. (The Column is just a basegame retexture still under Columns.)

The Incense REQUIRES THE WORLD ADVENTURES EP.

The Magazines are under Misc Deco, and Open and Closed, and the closed ones are stackable.

The Price Tags are Wall Lights. You can barely see them except for up close--I tried adjusting the alpha, the bloom, UVs, but no dice. Oh well I tried, sue me. I made them specifically to fit the Wall Shelves from the 2-tile Into the Future EP.

As a bonus, I threw in a 1-tile version of the ITF Wall Shelf (cuz EA sucks) that I think might also require the ITF EP, cuz I cloned it.

_______________________________________________

And that‘s everything for now.

Enjoy, dashis and choombas!

Are we allowed to hear the rant on A Tale of Magic? I hate it as well and wanna hear more opinions on it

FELLOW ATOM HATER HELLO FRIEND

You can indeed hear the rant! Word of warning: i was up till midnight last night and am a bit scattered, and i have not read the book in awhile, so this may be slightly incomprehensible. I'll be pulling some stuff from my actual review, too.

Disclaimer: it's fine if you like it, good for you, now please go away. this will only upset you and i don't want to upset people.

So, let's get this out of the way first: Colfer abuses italics. Like, i love italics, and i still wanted to rip my eyes out by the third chapter. Instead of using emotional description and tags, he emphazies every other word, even when characters are having normal conversations. He also uses italics to represent it when people are yelling, and people yell quite a lot in his book.

Ok, i'll stop with the italicizing now, but that's what the book is like, right???

next: the magic system is shit! total shit! there is not a single part of it that makes sense! it is never once explained in any way, shape, or form other than "fairies have magic, humans dont, witches are evil fairies". I am fairly lenient with magic systems; they don't have to make total sense or make sense right away, but i think it's fair of me to... yknow... want even a little bit of context. A Tale of Magic is the seventh book in the LOS universe, and i still dont know what the fuck is going on with the magic.

Example of well-done vague magic: The Raven Cycle.

Example of well-done explained magic: Six of Crows.

Example of a shitshow of magic that makes no fucking sense in any singular way: A Tale of Magic!

next next: i hate the main character so fucking much, why couldn't Lucy have narrated, Bristol Board is--i dont use this term often but she is--a total mary sue chosen one Not Like Other Girls protagonist, i hate her, that is all i feel the need to say over this aspect

NEXT next next, i am quite upset with Bristol Board's "magiclexia" thing. For starters... "Colfer learn what words mean" challenge. Clearly it was supposed to be based on dyslexia, but the dys is "not" (e.g. disability, dysfunction) and the lexia is relating to words and reading. magiclexia is "magic reading", basically. He should have done literally anything else. fuck, "dysmagica" would have been better than this (though that makes my eyes bleed a little).

NEXT NEXT NEXT NEXT, this is the most exhaustingly heavy-handed metaphor for homophobia ever. I'm gay and i got sick of it within a few chapters. It's all "magic's not a choice, hate is! people are born with magic! magic isn't moral or immoral!" and the anti-magic people are like "magic is against god! magic is a choice! you can be a fairy, but only if you never use your magic!" it's exhausting and not subtle in the slightest. (Plus, there's no gay people in this homophobia metaphor??? thats. hm. not great). Also, his metaphor for gay people... are fairies... you see why having your gay metaphor be called fairies is bad, right...?

next next next next NEXT, Colfer has never in his life been taught "show, don't tell". Every single fucking event and emotion is expressly told, you never once have to use your own brain because he'll go like "she cast her eyes to the floor, blushing, and mumbled, 'sorry'", and then immediately add "she was embarrassed" NO SHIT SHERLOCK!

finally (not really but if i keep going i'll probably drive everyone insane with the length of this post) i don't know whomst the fuck this book is for, and that is a problem. It's content and character ages suggest it's YA, but the reading level, character simplicity, and humour is more suited for MG. It's not the weird space between YA/MG, either; i've seen books do that, and this is not the same place. Colfer's LOS series is middle grade, which moves into YA-MG for the last book, and this isn't even that; it's very obviously trying to be YA, but it has way too many immature, childish moments in places that don't seem to be on purpose.

Anyway, i told you i hate this book! this is just the one book! i didn't even mention the 6 LOS books or this book's sequel! do you understand the amount of wrath i have toward this book? because it's a lot!

ty for the ask and have a great day!

Sunshine is just argumentatively not a good nickname for me.” Rev said, crossing his arms and glaring at Richie. Richie just smiled goofily, thrilled to be back out in the air with Reverie. “But it’s always sunshine when I see you, Rev! My day just brightens up.

[bizarrescribblez]

haiiii its you know who hahahhahahahahauuuu for ur recent ask game >:,) 3 (GUSH), 4, 6, 10, 11, 12, and 16 x)

Omg I wonder who this is 🤨🤨🤨 perhaps THE wife of the Riddler herself?? But WAAHGH TYSM for sending a bunch I’m so excited…. :,3

3. how do the other characters generally feel about your self insert?

OMG ok so I won’t go into extensive detail cuz I literally could but hmphs lemme thinks ok so. Jim Gordon/Commissioner Gordon is me pops :) my padre!!! So we’re very close despite me not actually being his kid, y’know.. like even when I find out who my FR parents are I don’t really care cuz he’s my dad.. Bruce and I have been childhood friends since I like to think middle school/after his parents died, so (not to be Mary Sue-ish) we’re also pretty close and other than Alfred I’m pretty much the first to figure out/him tell me his Batman since we both fight crime.. Selina and I don’t meet till the events of The Batman but we’re very tight and most likely keep in touch after she leaves Gotham.. Me and Ed are really in sync too since we have similar interests and ofc he’s dating my bestie so he’s honorary bestie :) and I like to imagine me and Officer Martinez also knew each other as kids so unintentional trio of him, me and Bruce!

4. would you be considered a main character, side character, villain, or something else?

HMMM I think overall I’m pretty much a side character :) especially in The Batman and most likely only tag along whenever Bruce and Jim are together cuz padre hehehe..

6. does your self insert have any pets?

I haven’t thought about pets yet :)) I’d really love her to have an astrological critter she had since she ended up on Gordon’s doorstep.. kinda like how Hercules had Pegasus in the Hercules movie.. so many a space looking bun bun…

10. how do the other characters feel about your self insert and f/o's relationship?

Omg this is such a good one.. me hopes you don’t mind I do Before Two Face + After Two Face huhuhu cuz it sounded fun..

[Before Two Face!]

I feel like Bruce and Jim (and Ed too tbh) (actually everyone of you think about it) are on the same boat about feeling on the fence about it. Mainly cuz he’s a politician and running for mayor so they’re all pretty sussed out especially after everything in The Batman where literally anybody could be hiding something .. but I feel out of everyone Bruce would be the least H about it especially since he probably helps fun his campaign.. me thinks … Gordon is just concerned dad who doesn’t want me to get hurt and Ed is Ed he hates politicians UFGFDFDGGG

[After Two Face!!]

It’s safe to say that . Yeah if Bruce and Jim weren’t more concerned for me this is ultimate levels of concern. Tbh I don’t think either of them other than Ed and Selina (and my bff :3) know I’m dating him at that point since.. failed mayoral stuff —> mob boss now so I wouldn’t want Harv getting caught or sent to jail…

11. what kind of outfit(s) does your self insert wear?

Omg.. I can literally send a bajillion outfits omg

Ok update I picked a lot so :)

As you can see… ayo why she ourple.. also very pastel-y and space themed :)

12. how would the fandom view your character?

Omg that’s a hard question yet I love questions like this.. tbh I feel like people would think she’s OP or overpowered even tho all she can do is float… and draw powers from the stars.. like y’all she’s less OP than Superman 🙄 boutta make her weakness everything but kryptonite.. or they’d say she’s a rip off of Roxanne from Megamind cuz I’m hero/news reporter hehehehuhu

16. freebie! name a fact about your self insert you want everyone to know.

AAAA I don’t think I have a fact on the spot.. but she’s pretty sailor moon inspired like her hair/space aesthetic :) that is all

[jacksallys]

hi thank you to @jasonfunderberkerthefrogexists for tagging me in this fic writer tag game! i have not actually written a fic in a hot sec but i’m working on some stuff so yes. i have no idea who to tag but if you see this and you post fic then i’m tagging you <3

how many works do you have on ao3?

twenty one! tho i have nine more in my ao3 drafts

what’s your total ao3 word count?

fucking. 103844 what the fuck i only posted my first fic like. a year ago ish why did i spend six months writing 103k of muke fic when i could’ve written a fucking novel

how many fandoms have you written for and what are they?

two! 5sos & rainbow rowell’s carry on

what are your top five fics by kudos?

1. coffee shop fic (w/ muke)

2. random hair braiding prompt (w/ lashton)

3. the witch fic (w/ muke)

4. fake dating fic (w/ muke)

5. baz & smoking drabble (w/ snowbaz)

do you respond to comments? why or why not?

ok so i try to but also sometimes i put it off when i receive them, and then i forget about them and feel awkward answering them when i remember like five months later but i do read all of them and appreciate them all <3

what’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

i am simply too depressed for angst. some people’s comfort tag is hurt/comfort but i can’t read that w out crying, let alone write it. i guess the end (so far) of what i’ve written of carry on fic is sorta angsty?

have you ever received hate on a fic?

no thankfully not bc i think i’d die inside

do you write smut? if so, what kind?

no! thank u to everyone who does i love that shit when it’s abt fictional characters and not real people but i can’t write it and also i don’t think i want to hfjdkd

have you ever had a fic stolen?

no i don’t think so hfjdks

have you ever had a fic translated?

nope!

have you ever co-written a fic before?

no but the amount of shit that me and @radiosil3nce come up w could probably be put in a fic 😔

what’s your all time favourite ship?

ok. well. my first favourite ship was scorbus. i was dealing w a LOT of self internalised homophobia and then i started shipping them and realised hey maybe gay people aren’t gross, maybe i’m gay. it’s probably wolfstar, but also i don’t think i’d love wolfstar THAT much if i didn’t love sirius. based off of like, the dynamic alone, merthur. their dynamic’s elite. but wolfstar is my favourite just bc nothing makes me happier than thinking abt sirius black happy, and nothing makes sirius black happier than remus :)

what’s a wip that you want to finish, but don’t think you ever will?

carry on fic but also draft’s wise, starstruck fic & my poly hp au

what are your writing strengths?

according to gigi it’s the fact that i write p good dialogue and am good at making my version of other people’s characters seem in character <3

what are your writing weaknesses?

probably. lack of motivation. and the fact that i can’t read over my own writing w out dying. and self confidence hfjdkdks

what are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in fic?

i’d probably do it! i think i’d just be nervous abt getting stuff wrong bc the only languages i know are english (barely) and french (studied it for five years and i can barely speak it) so. it’s not looking good

what was the first fandom you wrote for?

ok it was either winx with a self insert and a completely mary sue oc that i paired w brandon or a harry potter fic where draco had a sister who was a year younger than him called andromeda bc apparently in this andromeda black wasn’t a thing?? ok. also yes she was a self insert who decided to karate chop harry potter at the train station?? i was like, eight. enemies to lovers stan since ‘03 <3

what’s your favourite fic you’ve written?

god quality wise, i think either carry on fic or my witch fic are my best. carry on fic bc it’s the most recent, so ofc it’s gonna be the best bc writing gets better AS you write, so new stuff is always gonna be better than old stuff. i love my witch fic, i got some really nice comments on it and i think it’s one of my best, but also my fake dating fic has a special place in my heart, it’s rlly the only one that i reread

[katierosefun]

hi how are u : )

quick writing q, how did you come up with original characters? are they star wars characters or just like general?

i feel like i have ideas but like. struggle to make them into people. if that makes sense.

hiya!!! i’m good, hope you’re doing well!!! (and thank you for asking this question because,,,you should know i geeked out temporarily because someone’s asking me about original characters??? whooo boy!!!) 

also...things got lengthy (again), so i added all this under the cut!

okay, so i have like one (1) star wars original character named eiko, who i introduced in time, wondrous time. introducing eiko took a while and it was a lot of me being super anxious and kind of lowkey scared because...star wars fans tend to be a little protective, and sometimes original characters aren’t that well-liked, especially because of that fear of “mary sue”-ness and etc. 

so in the case of a star wars original character and to avoid the problems specific to and inherent to all the problems we run into with original characters in fanfic writing, i just kind of. make sure that she’s actually got some traits that! people can mostly relate to! 

so for instance, eiko’s just a very anxious kid who wants to be a good padawan, but: 

how do you be a good padawan anyways when there were already so many amazing jedi who walked the path  before you?

how do you handle those expectations? 

are you harder on yourself because of it? probably. 

do you glow when given compliments? absolutely.

and i guess when making a star wars original character, or an original character in any pre-established fandom, then you really want to make sure that if they’re connected to a canon character in some way, the canon character gets a storyline of their own. 

the canon character and the original character can rely on each other from time to time, but i think it would be kinda boring if the original character just followed around canon characters and never figured things out for themselves. 

basically: we want your original character to have some independence away from the canon characters.

how do they act when they’re alone? 

what do they do in their free time? those are things to think about when you’re trying to better grasp an original character in a pre-existing fandom.

but in terms of writing original original characters, i have this thing where like. i just take a singular personality trait that (usually) i have and dial it up to 100000. because, as one of my own friends likes to say, we contain multitudes. there are so many lives and so many different facets of you that are sometimes fighting for the spotlight--and sometimes, i like to give those different facets a little bit more of a voice in original characters. 

because really, chances are, those little bits of you that are still hiding around the corners? those traits are sometimes more exemplified in other people. so, like, if that was confusing (which i know it was), a quick example: 

i will be the first to admit that sometimes, i can be an incredibly rude person. (idk how much of a surprise that is to people. i hope it’s a bit of a surprise, because i don’t like to be rude.) 

and of course, there are tons of very, very, very rude people in real life. the reason why i’m not rude 24/7 is because there’s a part of me that dials it down a quick notch. but there are people out there who don’t have that dial, and they’re able to exist relatively freely just being the rude people they are. 

so that’s kinda where i start in making my characters feel a little more real/also a little more diverse in character! 

because as one of my creative writing instructors once told me, writers tend to be a quiet bunch. and i think anything we write--including characters--tend to reflect huge parts of ourselves, so imagine if we just had a cast of quiet characters who twiddled their thumbs all the time. that’s not a good story, and those aren’t always very dynamic characters. so have fun! take one singular trait that you find intriguing about yourself or in in others and say to yourself, “okay, but what if i dialed it up?” see where it gets you!

but i guess if we want to talk more about how to make characters feel like more real people, then i guess it goes down to the age-old question all writers need to ask when looking at their characters: 

what does your character want?

think about it. anything your character wants is what is ultimately going to drive them forward to do what they’re going to do. act the way they’re going to act, say what they’re going to say. 

there’s a story that i wrote a while back about a girl who’s the daughter of an assassin. she wants to be a lawyer, while her mom wants her to follow the family business and become an assassin as well. 

so how does the mom act? the mom does everything in her power to get her daughter to be excited about being an assassin--lets her in on interrogation rooms, takes her to a shooting range, gets increasingly frustrated and turns up the denial denial denial mode every time her daughter talks about the possibility of law school. 

the daughter? the daughter does everything in her power to make sure her mom knows that she doesn’t want to be an assassin. she deliberately lounges around during the interrogation, she misses all the targets on the shooting range on purpose, etc. 

so, in essence: your characters have to want something first. as soon as they want something, the rest will slowly come to place. even if you’ve never been an assassin or the relative of one, you still probably relate to at least the feeling of wanting something badly, and all people know that feeling too! it’s real, and it’s human to want something. 

combine that want with, idk, the type of background you have for your characters (and there’s a ton of different resources on developing that specifically), and soon, you’ll find yourself writing/communicating/tearing your hair out with a much more fleshed-out character.

and, if you’ve done all these and you still want to know a little more about your character, another thing to flesh out original characters/stories: 

1. write fanfic of them. no, seriously, do it. sometimes you can’t really write your big story/novel/whatever right away, but you have a very specific scene or you want to reimagine them in a different setting and just play around with them. that’s okay! what are they like in a modern day high school au? in a coffeeshop au? play around with it, and see what’s consistent (do they meet the same people in the same manner over and over again? do they like to listen to one specific kind of music? do they still talk funny? do they still wear x?) 

2. make playlists! like...music is personally one of my big inspirations, so this is where i usually throw in some good old playlists. more times than not, i’m able to write with my original characters with my original character’s specific playlist playing in the background. (and it’s wonderful! i have one character playlist that’s almost solely musical/disney music because she’s a very innocent kind of gal, while another playlist is very heavy punk/rock because that’s Just How She Is.)

3. write incorrect quotes! you know the ones i’m talking about--there are so many incorrect quote blogs on tumblr. i have a separate, private sideblog here on tumblr that’s completely dedicated to writing incorrect quotes of my original characters. i sometimes post screenshots of them here too, although i haven’t done that in a while. but incorrect quotes are fun, and they might give you a good idea of the kind of characters/archetypes you want them to fit into! 

(and, because i can’t resist, here’s an example from my own original characters:) 

galen: andrea, i need you to swear to me--

andrea: shit

galen: 

galen: i meant swear like promise, andrea //

rosalind: crushes are the worst 

dae: yeah, whenever i’m near one, i just start acting nervous 

rosalind: you’re always nervous 

dae: ...don’t think too hard 

myung, tired: bold of you to assume rosalind thinks

4. alternatively, make a whole private side blog dedicated to your original characters and reblog/tag the posts that remind you of them. like, you know the “[x] characters as tumblr posts”? yeah. i do that a lot. so, just because i really can’t resist, some more examples: 

“Bro, We Are Rivals . Its Ok To Pin ME Up Against A Wall . Im Ur Nemesis . I Hate You . ... Bro, We Are Kissing Now . . No Dont Stop Bro .. Bro ... // @gayarsonist 

oh so you’re just going to wear a black turtleneck?? like some kind of slut?? // @allergic-alien 

and sometimes, i’ll use that blog to also reblog poetry that resonates with my original characters/gifsets of actors/actresses that i would fancast as my original characters. (like,,,did i look at ewan mcgregor in mortdecai and gratuitously tag him as a villain character in one of my wips? yeah. yeah, i did. it’s fun writing that villain character now, though. :)) 

and those are all the tips that i have!!! i hope that helps!!! have fun writing, friend!!
