So I found this on bird app :

"i only like ge/go when it’s doomed and they have no longterm future

same with go/ge. they’re about the same to me but i think gojo bottomed more and was a total pillow princess about it in their teens. as adults they probably switched equally. i can see gojo developing his experience more with topping as an adult

either way they’re better as exes. gojo deserves more from a partner than someone who would leave him to start a cult "

Can I ask your thoughts, please?

………… I don't ship them sexually. Because I'm not comfortable with it.

(I have aroace spectrum satosugu headcannons I'm quite fond of. So basically I ship them queer platonically and semi-romantically and flip flop between the two.)

Sorry about that!

But in terms of are they better off being okay with being apart, or if they should stay together regardless…

Complex answer. Depends on the context really.

They loved each other a lot. And I disagree with 'Gojo deserves a better partner than someone who left him to start a cult'. Like… he does but also… that's not the entirety of the situation?

If Geto loved Gojo, why didn't he try to recruit him? by @ellionwrites

How much Geto canonically loved Gojo by @ellionwrites

These two analysis's explain it very well. Also there's a fanfic called Carry me home that is just 100/10. Character analysis interwoven and it perfectly explains this part of Geto's motivations.

Geto COULD NOT go on for much longer without coming to a breaking point. His cursed teqnique requires him to go through painful experiences over and over and over again. The very coping mechanism he prided himself on ('I do this to protect non-sorcerers') has fallen to pieces and Gojo isn't there (for his own reasons). He's grappling with his entire sense of self and it's been repeating in his head for A YEAR.

And Geto did not want to confront Gojo during the whole 'kfc breakup scene'. (Again, analysis above explains it really well.)

Shoko called him there. For good reason. I don't think either Shoko or Gojo had a good idea of just how bad it was getting because Geto (a) didn't tell anyone (b) Gojo was doing 'okay' (he wasn't) and (c) Geto's strong in morals and in resolve. He'll be okay.

(Gojo especially believes this. Strong sorcerers stay safe. Especially Geto. I have… a lot of posts talking about how Gojo depends on Geto to be around him when interacting and just… existing in general.

Gojo gets so fixated on being stronger so he wouldn't make the same mistakes like with Riko. He isolates himself to do so. ~~~ Backstory ~~ explains this.

The Gojo clan isolated Gojo, told him he's the strongest, and gave him rules and responsibilities for that - along with safety and confidence. So - in Gojo's mind - the only way to get stronger is to double down on these things. More responsibility. More isolation. He'll be able to take care of things once he gets stronger. )

LONG STORY SHORT -

Geto's ideal was fixing the world - partially for Gojo as the strongest, partially for himself because he was struggling and didn't have any foothold.

And… listen… sometimes you have to take priority over your partner. I don't think the way Geto went about it was right, by any means, but… at least he did something, he had to.

At the end of the day, the system is to blame. It's the system that drove them both to this and it's the system that let it perpetuate.

But let's say they met right before JJK0-ish and decided to forget the world for a little while and escape from it all together.

It would be… strained to say the least.

Because they are canonically soulmates. A pair. Do not separate. But they have and it's been going on for ten years despite the fact that they both very much still love each other.

Gojo just couldn't leave the society that gave him meaning (other reasons too), Geto couldn't leave the thing that gave him meaning.

Does that indicate that they do not love each other/shouldn't be together because they both value their respective ideologies? No.

(We're going to ignore Geto's whole 'kill the monkeys' thing for a second and pretend like it's just an opposing idealogology for the sake of the argument <3)

The circumstances, their respective coping mechanisms, and the system, very much the system, makes it so they went their separate ways. Just because their ideals got caught up in this thing and they went for their own paths does not mean they don't love each other and wouldn't jump at the chance to have a 'perfect world' with the other in it.

(the sunset scene, Geto's death scene… need I say more?)

If the society decided that "… maybbeee we shouldn't put all this traumatic pressure on children and say that the only answer is isolation and acceptance and instead give them the help and support they need" then Geto and Gojo would've stayed together.

But it wouldn't have been JJK then, would it? Without the friendship that haunts the narrative?

Sorry if I'm rambling, what I'm trying to say is - it's complicated. The story itself drove them apart and canonically they never got back together while mourning their separation the entire time.

And Gojo never moved on, never let go. If you wanted to - and this is something I played around with in my head - and if JJK miraculously got rewritten as a slice-of-life post hidden inventory, then part of GOjo's arc could be about letting go of Geto, as painful as that may be.

But honestly? Comfort people are hard to find. Geto and Gojo were specifically created to be a pair. Gojo was so detatched from the world that Geto tethered him to it. After Geto left, Gojo went on to be a teacher and do what the Suguru he remembers would've wanted him to do, and he 'doesn't feel lonely anymore'…

Gojo loves his students dearly, but he can't ask his students to understand him. And more than anything, Gojo wants to be understood and loved for it. The only one who fit that criteria was Geto.

(Gojo's whole sentiment about 'not as a human, but as a living creature' is Gojo saying that he (a) didn't feel human without Geto there (b) didn't let himself feel human and instead made himself a tool, gave himself the role of the strongest.

Because otherwise Riko happens all over again.

ANNNDDD I'm going off on a ramble.

Last point!

Narratively, should Gojo and Geto be a tradegy, where they never get back together? (AKA, as it is in cannon)

Yes. That is a huge part of their characters, along with being a huge draw to JJK in general. There's something about the separation exemplifying how much SatoSugu loved each other that gives it nuance and the possibility for lots of fix it fics.

So I can understand why the bird poster thought that SatoSugu works a lot as a tragedy, it does. But if SatoSugu had a well-written redemption arc, that would also be extremely compelling I think.

But alas, this is JJK we're talking about.

Thank you for the ask! This was fun to ramble about at 2am.

I'm sad today for a few reasons work, and the soon to be three year anniversary of a friends death I will now tell you why I prefer bad mother Talia and why his favorite Robin was Damian Wayne. My friend was raised from birth to 14 years old not knowing who his dad was and mildly abusive mother I don't want talk about all thing she did because she's going to take up most of story and the sole reason my friend dead so fuck her. But when my friend was 14 because his mom got fired from her job and she didn't want to actually go looking for a job she dropped my friend off at his bio dads told him he was his son and left. Now like Damian he looked just like his dad and his dad had no clue he had a kid and unlike Damian he had no siblings and his mom 100% had no good relationship with his dad and definitely took advantage of drunk college kid who 16 years younger than her. So imagine your 35 year old man and the woman who he had sex with once almost 15 years ago tells you have kid and he looks like you but dose that even matter she just abandon her kid at his door step and like Bruce Wayne he doesn't kick the kid out or blame the kid but has DNA test done to prove he his well you know what happened he was his kid. So know he goes to court to get parental rights so he doesn't have to go back with his mom. Now some more Damian Wayne similarities he was angry who had undiagnosed autism who was neglected by his mother was desperately touched starved but his dad was a saint and tried to help him the best ways he could. Let me tell you I wish this story had happy ending but he got good few years after that we met up read comics together at my place since me and my family have decent comic collection I can't remember the run name on top of my head but we read the run Damian was introduced he was so happy a kid who had same shit hand dealt I remember my first time reading hating how Talia was depicted but now it my favorite Talia because everytime I read it I remember my friend and his shit hand and how his dad tried to help his son. Now I should explain why it's his mom fault my friend dead he was diagnosed with something I don't feel totally ok with sharing since you could find out who was with it but safe to say he was told he needed to be in assisted living situation shortly after his mom tried to force the court to put him under her care again since she would be given tax exemption from him just living their and she hired a really good lawyer and my friend saw his and his father's hand in the case and their was a good chance she could take him back so instead of even chance with living with her again he killed himself the trail never even made it to court. This is why I like bad mother Talia because every time I write something she deserves her getting her just deserts I feel a little better it's or anything bad happening to her I know it was the creator being islamophobic I don't care if can write legally distinct fanfic about a person who I hate and getting beaten up I'll take it.

I feel like you guys are owed some more facts about him he used to call his dad his Batman when he talked about him. He eventually had a step mother who actually tried to be a mom but sadly she only knew him for a few months I remember her crying the hardest at his funeral how it wasn't fair she couldn't hold him longer apparently she couldn't have children so when she learned her boyfriend at the time had a kid although he was adult she was happy. He liked Godzilla a lot he had some of black and white movies. He was the only person I ever met who liked the batman and Robin movie the one bat suit nipples and Mr freeze. He had hated when people ignored him he would start to hit your arm until you at least acknowledged his existence he tried this once with a teacher and he got detention so fast. He wanted to work in 3d animation. He owned but never read the homestuck epilogue books. I only got one thing from him sadly his 3d model folder I would show you guys his work but I can't look at his art without crying so I rather not.

Goodbye my friend my Damian Wayne from your Jon Kent

#goodbye friend #batman #dc #damian wayne #talia al ghul #sorry to emotionally dump this on you guys but his death day is coming up

And the reader can be whatever you want and the story can also be who ever you want. But can the two have a kiss I the fanfic at times. by @austinstyles

warnings: from Austin's POV, gender neutral reader, fluff.

summary: Austin has some trouble with how he feels about you, but what he doesn't know is that you feel the same.

word count:1063

author’s note: hello hello! here's the 4th request for my 2k celebration! I hope everyone enjoys (:

masterlist | add yourself to the taglist here | 2k celebration prompts here | request a prompt here or in my asks.

"I've been thinking about you and me girl, and we've got something going on.”

You’ve got this. You’ve totally got this.

I brush off my button-up for the tenth time, trying my best to get rid of the non-existent wrinkles. I tousle my freshly cut hair a little again, studying my reflection in the mirror timidly. Shaking myself out, I take a few deep breaths before forcing myself away from the mirror and out of my bedroom. I quickly grab my keys and head out of the front door, trying to convince myself that my plan will go exactly how I keep imagining it. Today was going to be the day.

Trying to keep myself pumped up, I played some Elvis on the way to Y/N’s house. We were having a movie night like we always do every weekend, but this time it was different. This time, I’m telling them how I feel about them. Usually, I’m cool and collected, but whenever I’m around them, that facade just melts away. I find myself stuttering and struggling to find the right words to say. I get this fluttery feeling in my stomach, and my heart races every time we hang out. We’ve been friends for so long, and a part of me is afraid they don’t feel the same about me. But I guess we’re about to find out.

When I pull up to Y/N’s place, my heart begins to thump wildly in my chest, and my palms start feeling clammy. I remind myself to take deep breaths, so I don’t get too overwhelmed. I force myself out of my car and make my way toward their front door. I stand there awkwardly for a moment, wondering if I should knock on the door and go through with this. What if they don’t feel the same? What if they laugh in my face? What if-

“Hey, Aus! You okay?” they open the door, their face falling in concern at my visible nervousness.

“Oh, yeah, of course! Just had too much coffee, is all,” I lie, smiling to cover it up.

Y/N steps aside for me to walk through the doorway, and I enter their place. They go to sit on the couch and motion for me to join them. There are snacks all over the coffee table, ranging from popcorn to sweets. I sit down on the couch but not directly next to them. They furrow their eyebrows at me for a moment but then focus their attention on the tv.

“So, what are we watching tonight?” they ask me, scrolling through the various streaming apps.

“I haven’t had time to think about that,” I say, “Maybe we can finish watching that show we started a few weeks ago?”

“Good idea,” Y/N says, opening Netflix.

I try to focus on the show, but my mind wanders anxiously. How do I bring up that I need to talk to them without worrying them? What do I even say? I can’t just blurt out, “Hey! I am lowkey in love with you!” I try to push away the thoughts, turning my attention back on the show. But still, my imagination keeps getting the best of me. For a while, everything seems fine. Well, to me, anyway. We’re into our second episode of the night when Y/N suddenly pauses the show.

“Are you okay? You’re acting weird,” they frown, studying my face for any giveaways.

“Of course I’m okay, and why do you say that?” I scratch my head.

“Because you have hardly said a word so far, you haven’t dug into any snacks, and this show always makes you laugh, and you haven’t laughed once.”

I sigh, running a hand through my hair, “I’ve been thinking about you and I. A lot.”

“What about you and I?” they ask, a concerned expression still etched on their face.

“I have feelings for you,” I gulp.

A look of realization crosses their face, and then a big smile.

“So you’re telling me the Austin Butler has a crush on me?” Y/N jokes.

“Yes,” I say, nervously looking them in the eye, searching for any hint of rejection.

“I have feelings for you too, I’m not gonna lie,” they confess, scratching the back of their neck, “I figured I’d have to hide it forever, but I’m glad I don’t have to anymore.”

“Really?” I ask, raising my eyebrows in surprise. They like me back?

“Yes, really,” they chuckle, “But the thing is, what are we gonna do about it?”

“I have a few ideas,” I say, feeling bold.

“And what are they?”

“This,” I say, moving closer to Y/N and grabbing the back of their neck, pulling them into a kiss.

They kiss back, and I try not to smile into the embrace. Finally.

The rest of the evening is spent watching the show and cuddling on the couch. We decided to take things slow and plan a first date, nothing too serious. A coffee date that following Monday is the final decision. We sit in the back of the coffeehouse, where it’s somewhat private, and we often sneak kisses when there’s no one around.

“I like kissing you,” Y/N smiles when she pulls away from yet another kiss.

“I like kissing you, too,” I smile back, and it feels like there are hearts where my eyes should be.

That Friday, we went out to dinner and had a great time. When we leave, I sneak my hand into theirs as we walk to the car. They beam at me, their face bashful at the gesture. We arrive at their home, and I walk them to their door, our hands still grasping each other.

“I had fun,” Y/N says, and I nod in agreement.

“We should definitely do it again sometime,” I say, looking into their eyes.

They lean into me, connecting our lips for the first time tonight. I let go of their hand, running my now free hand around the back of their head and through their hair. After a few minutes, we both reluctantly pulled away.

“See you later,” they say, smiling at me before heading inside.

I stand there momentarily, wondering how I should surprise them with another date. As I walk back to the car, I keep mentally pinching myself because I can’t believe this is real and they like me back. I never thought I’d be so lucky.

ei-mugi · 1 year ago

Note

YESSSSS this eimugi CAN be written in a way where it has a satisfying conclusion in the present/future but the meat of it is really the war era. like eichi moving on to wataru(/fine) and tsumugi moving onto natsume(/switch) are both the best outcomes for both of their arcs and what will lead them to happiness in the future, sure.

but there is so much going on with both of them and their views on their relationship during the war and it ties in so nicely to those themes of Humans & Gods/Normal Ppl & Geniuses and Narratives (i.e. plays, books, tv, myth and legend, narrative roles, literary intent, etc). and on a personal level to them it's fascinating, too. i think tsumugi's unwillingness to consider himself having a role in his own life is ironically what allows him to cling to eichi so much, because eichi certainly isn't that warm to him in the war beyond basic pleasantries. but eichi (not unlike wataru) is so absorbed in what the war IS and who he is as a person and as a character in his own narrative that he can't see beyond it or consider what tsumugi may be thinking or feeling. i see a lot of reference to wataru's reliance on narratives to form or obscure his identity but not a lot on the same thing for eichi. then again i havent been reading many enstars essays lately lmfao.

i could elaborate on all that more but im worried about rambling excessively. but it really is all about them being such opposites thematically but then at the end they both have their revelation about how the other viewed them, and they both swap. eichi's the one who tries grasping onto tsumugi, but it's too late, tsumugi's already solidified his rejection and so rejects him in turn. eichi had been right, at that point it really had been too far into his plans for them to not complete themselves, even at his own death. and eichi had always kept himself so separated from other people, intentional or not (hospital), that like natsume i think he hadn't really experienced that kind of loss before. i dunno

Could I hear ,, some of ur mugi ships since you mentioned it briefly,,

omg dude its like basically every graduate ill eat it all up im so serious BUT if we're going into specifics i specifically pair him with:

nagisa, hiyori, rei, kaoru, wataru, shu, mama, and the angstiest one of all......... eichi himself (although i ship those two differently from the rest)

i just love the way tsumugi interacts with these people it makes me giggle so much. and like all of them (par kaoru and eichi) are pretty eccentric in their own ways and i just fucking love tsumugi being unable to keep up with them. and its ESPECIALLY funny having characters like rei and wataru lust for this absolute Nobody. it all just brings me sm joy

i know some people dont like ei/mugi but i feel like the beauty of it isnt "wow i hope to see these two get together some day!" that you typically expect from shipping, its moreso that lingering feeling of what used to be. what couldve been. that painful feeling of "Oh i really fucked this up didnt i" from eichi. that sense of betrayal tsumugi experienced. their relationship is one that is deeply important to me, and it saddens me a bit when people dont take the time to actually look into their relationship just because theyre so obviously not good for each other. sometimes having the characters end up together isnt the point of shipping ! sometimes the point is simply "these two have a relationship that fascinates me deeply and makes the cogs in my brain turn like crazy and i need to study them" and thats what theyre like to me. i love their dynamic alot its something that feels so incredibly Real

#its the. the. eichi as a god (leadership-wise) and so absorbed in this narrative #but he hates himself. he thinks hes evil #^ i could go on about these i have like a google doc full of quotes #and he absolutely refuses to let himself believe that not only does authentic friendship exist but that he could have it or is worthy of it #and tsumugi is just a rando hes just some guy. and he doesnt think hes anyone notable or special. and hes totally blind to the narrative #so that exchange he has with wataru right before the final execution isnt just 'tsumugi misread eichis friendship'#its 'tsumugi misread his entire narrative purpose and role' and again ironically thats what makes him fit it #hes not eichis right hand man or his confidant or his lover or rival or anything. hes the fool #^ yes bringing up the same words i used in my own fanfic lmao #and that scene is just as important for wataru as it is for tsumugi too #(& i suppose wataru took on that fool role. almost. later on? im still new to looking into wataru so. lol)#neither tsumugi nor eichi know what friendship is. sigh #sorry. tumblr user ei-mugi likes eimugi. living up to my namesake for once #theres just so much to say here i feel like im barely scratching the surface

I’m having a deep think right now about the overlaps and the differences between the appeal of fascism, and that of libertarianism.

On one level, this is because I am writing a Sucession fanfic, and trying to get into Roman’s head.

But on another level only reason I’m even writing Succession fanfiction is that I identify with Roman, and that is in large part because he is a queer person who is philosophically in the thrall of his terrifying conservative father, whose love he desperately craves.

And once upon a time, that used to be me. And I feel deep and abiding shame about that.

(Not the sexy kind of shame. The devastating kind.)

But as I delve into philosophical discussions of fascism and conservatism (and honestly, I have not yet delved the deeply), I’m starting to realize that maybe I have less in common with Roman, and more with Connor (if we leave out his weird S3 white-nationalism dog whistles about the evils of onanism).

I’m basing a lot of this on the first chapter – which is all I have read so far - of “The Reactionary Mind” by Corey Robin; which I came upon via the source list for the linked YouTube video.

youtube

[link to “Endnote 2: White Fascism” by Innuendo Studios, on YouTube.]

Robin (if I’m understanding him correctly) posits that the end goal of conservatism is fundamentally Fishstick fascistic, and that the real animus driving political conservative movements is always the desire of the privileged to remain above those the existing social order oppresses.

I have certainly voted for, and carried water for, conservatives (a fact of which I am, again, deeply ashamed), but I don’t think that was ever the real appeal for me.

I’m not saying I didn’t internalize beliefs that were (I now realize) racist, classist, ableist, and elitist; but I don’t think that was ever the main draw, so much as a side effect of reading the goddamn National Post every fucking day

But for me, I think the main appeal of conservatism was the illusory promise of total self-sufficiency, and of being impossible to further hurt. It was the libertarian lie, bound up in the same nihilistic appeal as the Nine Inch Nails song whose hook is “Nothing can stop me now, cause I don’t care anymore.” (‘Piggy’ is the song.)

In this respect, I think I had more in common with Connor; I was also the discarded child who grew up to think of themself as “a flower that grows on rocks and feeds on the insect that land inside of it.”

Honestly, that soliloquy (from S4E2) could’ve been me at thirteen.

I felt rejected and shunned by the world, but I was also rapidly becoming aware that I could use my looks and intelligence as currency (just a Connor uses his literal currency as currency).

It was only when I was 21, and ended a long relationship, and found myself with no one to turn to, and no idea who I was, that my father swooped in to be my new best friend; and that’s when I became more Roman-like in my fawning attempts to appeal to him.

But I think Roman truly believes that his father is better than him, whereas a much more significant part of me always knew my own dad was a false prophet.

I think the world reaffirmed this belief in Roman, because his father has been so successful, and I think his father, concerned with legacy, has been much more active in fostering this mythology than my own father was.

(My dad would tend to just willfully ignore that l existed for several years at a stretch, if I was acting too cringe [i.e. not stereotypically conservative-lady feminine enough] for his conservative sensibilities; something I am assuming that Shiv could probably relate to.

The scene where Logan tells her he wants her back in the fold was very similar to what my father did with me when I was 21, and I glowed just the same way she did.)

But yeah, I think an internalized belief on Roman’s part that his father truly is better than him, and a desire to “be as good” as his father in order to redeem himself and overcome this inadequacy in his person, really feeds into Roman’s affinity for fascism / conservatism.

And I think that belief structure is with him in that bathroom with Mencken, unacknowledged and subconscious, and even more insidious than his conscious priorities of wanting to win points with Logan, and maaaaaybe wanting to be pushed to his knees and have a fascist phallus (a fascllus? I’m going to hell) thrust upon him.

Anyway, if anyone ever reads this, feel free to suggest some books / essays / videos to my reading list.

So far, in addition to the above-mentioned Cory Robbins tome, I am planning to actually finish “The Ur-Fascist” by Umberto Ecco, and to at least dip into “The Dialectic of Enlightenment” by Horkheimer and Adorno, and “The Authoritarian Personality” by Adorno.

Hello, there! I’m your Santa for the DCMK Secret Santa event! I’m so excited for this event and even more so to be gifting to you! I’m super psyched just looking over the prompts and characters you’ve got listed, and I can tell this will be a lot of fun!

While I’m here, I noticed you're a writer and so I figured you might like to read in turn. If so, what are some of your favorite DCMK fics that you’ve read? Consider it a promotion for your favorites, if you will. Feel free to list as many as you’d like, even your own!! I'm always looking for good titles to add to my growing "unread" collection.

I hope you have a lovely rest of your day and an even better tomorrow!

–Your Secret Santa

Well hello there, Santa! I hope that you're doing well, and I really hope that something on my request list tickles your fancy. :)

Starting with a big question! Gosh, there are so many good fics in this fandom. I don't have a set list of my favs, but I can mention a few that stand out in my memory. I'm doubtful that I'm going to give you anything you haven't already read before tbh, but they're fandom favourites because they're just that good, so they're always worth reccing again, right? Allons-y!

A Study in Scarlette by kittesbasu is on everyone's Kaishin reclist for a damn good reason. If there was only one fanfic that existed for all of the DCMK fandom, I would want it to be this one. Everything about it - from the mystery they're unravelling, to the way the characters are portrayed, to the electric relationship between Shinichi and Kaito - is all so perfectly on point that I can barely believe we have been gifted with such a gem. Their other DCMK fic, Beneath a Waxing Moon, is also excellent.

Soulmate fics are incredibly popular in this fandom, and one soulmate fic that I am particularly fond of is All In by Procrastination_Sensation. I'm a total sucker for identity porn and soulmates, so this one is a hit with me.

A Study in Trust by Calculatrice is another fav of mine, especially for how it explores the evolving relationship between Shinichi and Kaito.

It's not exactly fic, but I would also recommend BakaThief's excellent comic Shadow Chase. It is ongoing (and will continue to be for a while!), but it is fantastic. Just know that when this story says 'slow burn', it really means it! Next chapter out next week!

In terms of beloved authors, Phantoms_Echo has a huge corpus of work that is all great fun. At present, I'm eagerly awaiting the next instalment of her Sentinel&Guide Universe.

I'm also a huge fan of Rachello344's work. Her Kaishin interactions are just so cute, and I love the way she writes both of them. A Marriage of Convenience is particularly cute (love me some oblivious Kaito for once). Also, I don't read a whole lot of NSFW stuff, but when I do, Rachello is one of my favs.

Self-reccing seems a little odd, tbh, but if you want to know which of my own works I'm the most pleased with, the answer is probably Scion. Because there will never be enough Conan + KID shenanigans for my liking, and I think this one turned out pretty well.

That's it from me, Santa! Later days! :)

Millie's Diary

If you're hooked, read the whole fanfic here.

March, 11

It’s my 17th birthday, and I’m not celebrating… again. I mean, it came as no surprise, there’s nothing to do anyway, but I’ve never felt so lonely in my life. What do other girls my age do? They date guys, go clubbing, they… I don’t know? I feel so incredibly lonely that I started this stupid diary. Stupid diary for stupid Millie.

March, 17

Dear Diary,

I am sorry I didn’t introduce myself properly. I felt so terribly overwhelmed that I totally forgot about decency.

Name’s Mildred, 17. I live on Crockett Island. It is a very close-knit community in WA. I live with my parents. Dad’s a fisherman, as most men here, and Mom’s a paramedic. Well, she’s actually a nurse at the local hospital, but doctors don’t last long here, and she’s learned a lot herself. The only thing she might not know well is surgery, but Crockett is a quiet place with few severe injuries happening. Typically, such things are treated on the mainland, and the ferryman can be amenable if he wants to.

Every Sunday we go to church, and that’s the center of our social life. People chat before mass, discuss all sort of nonsense. I’m not a huge fan of either, though: by Sunday, everybody has expressed their opinion, and here they just sum things up. As for the sermons… well, Reverend Carver is obviously a nice man, but I—more often than not—fall asleep right on the pews. I wish he hadn’t been so monotonous and slipped a joke from time to time, but all he does is endless droning. Jesus did this, Jesus did that… Jesus had better be doing my homework. Sure he can handle a few formulas, huh?

Anyways, gotta go. Continue tomorrow.

Love,

Millie

March, 20

(Should’ve been March, 18, but I failed)

(Sorry)

Dear Diary,

I’m sorry I didn’t make it ‘tomorrow.’ The homework was tremendous, and Mom needed a hand: I filled a register while she was running through medical records. We do it once a month or so. She wants to keep everything in order in case there’s a patient delaying a checkup. Inspector, really.

Anyways, where did I stop?

I wanted to tell you about our little island, but actually, there’s not much to say. Men are primarily fishermen, you already know that; women do other jobs, and those who still can prefer to flee. I would love to. I mean, I love this place, but… I don’t see much prospect here? I hope I will get to college. You see, our school’s not too good: the old lenient Mrs. Keane is hard of hearing, and she doesn’t even seem to care. Her husband, the intimidating Mr. Keane, the chemistry teacher (we call him Vigilante), is, on the contrary, rigorous and demands we explain everything on seven pages, no less. He also gives us physics lessons. And mathematics, too.

Dad takes me to the mainland every now and then, so I can get a glimpse of what people do outside our community. I do hope I will make it to college.

Love,

Millie

March, 27

Today’s sermon was a disaster. Reverend Carver spoke about Jerusalem, miracles and all, but I wouldn’t listen. Does it even make any sense? Luckily, I sneaked a book from a library. Yay, miracles do exist!

Love,

Millie

April, 10

Dear Diary,

I’m so fed up with this island, with those people, with this goddamn church directing me what to do and how to live! Why do I necessarily have to go there? I hate it. I hate Carver with his infinite lectures; I hate whining Mrs. Keane trying to complain about God knows what, I hate her husband, I hate the Gunnings with their pious faces, I hate EVERYTHING!!!!

April, 12

Dear Diary,

Dad didn’t take me to the mainland. He kissed me on the forehead and said that I was a good girl. A stubborn one, but good. Mom sniffed and said that those F’s in Mr. Kean’s class claimed otherwise. Fuck Mr. Keane. Fuck Mom too.

June, 9

Dear Diary,

Sorry it’s been a while! Too many things at once. A new doctor came, so Mom’s all occupied showing him around. I like him, actually. New people are always good. Is there a chance that odious Carver gets replaced? I’m done listening to his feeble attempts at mass.

But that’s beside the point. You know, I met someone. He’s exceptional. I wouldn’t say this is the love of my life, but I do feel something stirring in me. He takes my hand, and I immediately start smiling. We even kissed. I feel so dumb, so dumb! We crawled out of the church while the whole island was there, and he kissed me on the lips right in the grove behind it. Can you imagine? I feel like a sinner. Maybe I am? Not that I care.

Love,

Millie

July, 12

Dear Diary,

I am so nervous. God, I am so nervous, so nervous, so nervous! He says that we should move further on, but I don’t understand what he wants? I need to talk to someone, but it’s like a desert, you know? Dad’s out working, Mom’s… well, she’s changed. She’s always been irritable, but this is beyond comparison. Friends are of no help: I don’t want the whole island to know about my relationship! This is ridiculous.

Millie

July, 14

Mom knows everything. She may have known from the very beginning, but when I tried to buttonhole her, trying to pry into her past and maybe get a piece of advice (for a friend, yeah), I realized that she was staring at me a little too intently. It was like a huge snowball. She spoke about God, about sins, about Devil and seduction, embarrassed me, saying that I should never let a man ‘slip into my panties’ before marriage. It is a disgusting thing, she said, and it is absolutely unacceptable at my age. People do it to make children, she said. I never even thought of it, I swear. I swear! We never even discussed that! All we did was a little kissing in the grove! Why does she have to be so rude? Did I do anything wrong?..

September, 14

School. Again.

I didn’t have much energy to write, but now I think I’m here back again. For a while. Lessons getting tougher, Mr. Keane is turning into a monster with a ruler. When does it end? Finals, finals, come along, lemme leave that dreadful home!

December, 23

We broke up.

Merry Christmas, I guess.

Imma be real with you, Nomura is writing this, so I don't think he's trying to push some message about the value of remakes versus the value of fanfiction. I think he just can't help but turn everything he writes into Kingdom Hearts.

Near the end of the first game, the evil plot ghosts eventually merge together to make this thing:

It's a big spooky monster that throws black holes of magic at people in a place where the world appears to be ending and oh hey look at this totally unrelated recurring Kingdom Hearts boss fight

What's especially funny is that, until like the 95% mark, Remake follows the plot of the original almost completely, with only slight deviations being added for the purposes of expanding upon events. When Remake first came out, the common fan reaction was "Oh, this is the part Nomura worked on," since everything that happens in the final hour and a half of the game was basically just Kingdom Hearts again.

Rebirth is the same way. In order to make that fight with the evil plot ghosts happen in Remake, two of your party members are blessed with meta-knowledge of the events of the original game, so they know exactly what's supposed to happen.

The problem with this is that this makes it very difficult to write a story that in any way resembles the original, and the trailers made it very clear that Rebirth is, much like Remake, almost 100% faithful to the original story, with a few deviations in places where things are expanded. So off-screen, the plot ghosts just take away the characters' meta-knowledge, so the story is allowed to play out the way it did before. I don't know if this was course-correction, but it sure felt like it was.

It's only in the final couple of hours when Nomura, the creeping chaos, the lurking specter haunting this franchise, makes his return that you have to fight Hyperdimensional Fanfic Sephiroth with Zack and Aerith from another dimension.

Obviously, all art has some sort of intention behind it, but in Nomura's case, I sincerely doubt it's to make commentary on the value of remakes and fan content. I think he's got a style of story he likes to create, and while it doesn't fit at all with the original game's story, by god, he's going to fit that square peg into that round hole.

What I imagine - and this is purely based off what I think would be funny, rather than any evidence - is that Nomura was allowed to do basically whatever he wanted with the endings, but the rest of the games had to at least mostly adhere Final Fantasy 7's story. That's why, until right before the end, both Remake and Rebirth are mostly pretty normal and recognizable as the story of the original game.

It wouldn't surprise me if the third game - no doubt titled Final Fantasy 7 Revengeance - also dials things back for a bit, like making it so the Aerith that Cloud can see fades away for a while, or maybe something happens to make the cast forget that alternate dimensions exist, or something like that, because once you introduce that as a plot element that the characters know about, it's difficult to have a normal story after that.

Okay, so: the premise of the Final Fantasy VII remake is that the audience's demand for the remake to follow exactly the same plot as the original has manifested as a horde of evil ghosts who intervene in order to keep the story on the expected rails, with a particular emphasis on ensuring that characters in the remake die at the same times and under the same circumstances as their original counterparts. At the end of the remake's first instalment, Cloud and friends fight and defeat the king of the Evil Plot Ghosts, an act which breaks time and creates a multiverse where everybody's fanfic is real. Sephiroth subsequently merges with all the fanfic versions of himself and becomes some sort of fucked up metanarrative god. Later, Cloud simultaneously succeeds and fails in preventing Aerith's death, which partially dislocates him from the prime narrative reality, and he begins perceiving an adjacent fixit-fic universe where Zack never died. The Aerith of that universe then teams up with Cloud to fight Hyperdimensional Meta Bullshit Sephiroth, a battle that ends inconclusively when Sephiroth flees, stranding Zack-lives-universe Aerith in the prime narrative reality, though only Cloud can see her. The game closes with the revelation that, unbeknownst to everyone else, Sephiroth slipped the Black Materia into Cloud's pocket during their fight, setting in motion the events of the unpublished third instalment. Have I got all that straight?

Hey, guys. I normally try to live free of drama, but drama sometimes just catches up to me. In the last 24 hours, someone started leaving some really rude reviews on one of my most popular fanfics on Fanfiction.net. Now, this is not something new. Despite how well-liked this particular fic is and how many wonderful, kind, and thoughtful reviews I’ve gotten, the nasty ones stand out.

These latest reviews were, by no means, the worst I’ve ever gotten. I once had someone spam me with some of the vilest, most disgusting insults and threats I have ever seen. What set these reviews apart is that they wrote them under their own account. Normally, these guys like to post their nastiness under the anon/guest heading, so it’s fairly simple to just delete them. Not so when posted under an account.

The messages, as I said, were initially just rude. Insulting my OCs (who were basically just background extras) and just generally not contributing any critique of substance on this roughly ten-year-old fanfic. They then left one neutral comment and then one actually kind of nice comment, but then completely shifted into saying I was making “stupid decisions” and that I was “going to destroy everyone’s character” before saying they were dropping the fic.

They then wrapped it up by telling me to kill myself.

This is the first time I have ever had to report abuse. Again, I normally just delete anything hateful or rude because it’s usually anonymous, but I couldn’t do that here.

What’s more, no one ever, EVER, has any business telling someone to kill themselves. Not only is it incomprehensibly cruel, it is actually illegal to do online. I told my father (a retired lawyer) about what had happened and he said, “Yeah, no, they can’t do that, it’s a federal crime. If Fanfiction doesn’t do anything about it, that is a liability to them.” So I’m fairly confident that there will be some consequences for this person’s atrocious behavior.

Thing is, though, I’m not even angry about it. I’m just really disappointed that someone feels that it is acceptable to say such things to a stranger online. I had sent a couple PMs to them before I reported them, but got no response. I really do wonder what is so messed up in their life that they didn’t see what they were doing as wrong. The gentler, more nurturing side of me really wants to sit down with this person and ask if they are okay.

I recently applied for a teaching job (English) and one of the things I’d like to do, if I get it, is teach my students about how to give good critique. I’ve seen too much toxic stuff online and I feel the best way to combat it is by teaching young people how to express their opinions on other people’s work in ways that are constructive and healthy. Part of the problem with reviewers like the one I dealt with, I think, is that they weren’t taught that disliking something doesn’t give you the right to be abusive. And that is something that needs to be learned as soon as possible.

All in all, though, despite how that person treated me, I just feel sorry for them. It doesn’t matter to me that they hated my fic. If I’m totally honest, I’ve fallen out of love with that fic, myself. But the amount of anger that has to exist inside of someone for them to tell another human being to kill themselves (over a crappy, old crackfic at that) speaks volumes about what kind of a place they are at in their life. I only hope they find better outlets for that anger than leaving comments like those. I have had some problems with mental health and suicidal thoughts in the past, so telling me to kill myself really strikes at a sore spot. However, I was able to take it in stride and, while it will definitely linger for a while, I will be able to move on.

What worries me most is that they might say something like that to someone who can’t move on. And that could have far more serious consequences.

what i like to spend my money on: mostly clothes and jewelry. and candles sometimes. omg and books how could i forget!!

inside joke with liv: we've got this dumb little handshake we've had since literally forever that we call the bunnyfish (long story, idek how to begin explaining it) im the bunny shes the fish. ive been trying to convince her to get matching bunny and fish tattoos FOREVER but to no success. ill get there someday!!

weird fear: maybe more of an irrational fear but i cannot lean against car doors while theyre moving cause what if it opens and i fall out on to the road and die. like what if. it plagues my life fr.

weirdest dare ive ever done: tbh i cant even remember. i usually pick truth cause my friends can be EVIL and i will not subject myself to their dares. they're never creative enough with their truth questions so its always something dumb like "darkest secret" or "who do u like"

worst impulse buy: luckily nothing huge, but i impulse buy random shit like nail polish or lipstick all the time. i have yet to buy something i fully regret but im sure the day will come!

fav quote ever: AHH okay this is such a good question. my absolute fav is from anne carson's an oresteia:

“Pylades: I’ll take care of you. Orestes: It’s rotten work. Pylades: Not to me. Not if it’s you.”

something about someone wanting to take care of u even when ur at ur worst just KILLS ME. RIPS me apart.

9. fav quote from a fic: this is a basic answer but i really love that line in atyd about james having an ego the size of a lake but a heart to match it. just <3 yes. i love that man so much. theres also a bunch of lines in just lovers by zar that are taken from little women that just kill me every time i read.

10. ever met a celeb: ive never spoken to any but i DID walk past seth rogen like a month ago. and i saw john mulaney with olivia munn over this past summer too it was jarring.

11. fav snack: theres this snack mix i love called humpty dumpty party mix and its SO good. (the cheese one specifically) its got mini pretzels and doritos and puffy cheetos and crunchy cheetos and these little cheesy hoop things in it and its delicious.

12. crush on anyone: (dw ur good i dont mind!) not atm! i think my standards are too high bc of fictional characters and celebs so people irl always pale in comparison. like if ur not james potter or lily evans or sirius black im not wasting my time its simple.

13. who knows me best: definitely liv. she is as much a part of me as i am of her and we can read each others minds. also my dad, im almost a carbon copy of him cause we have the same interests and sense of humour .

14. lover vs getaway car: lover. the hopeless romantic in me had to. i love getaway car but its gonna have to be lover <3

15. all time favourite moment: visiting italy and greece was a dream come true cause ive always wanted to visit since i was a little kid. since it was a school trip i was with my friends and liv ofc and i had the time of my life. seeing the parthenon irl and the colosseum in rome changed the trajectory of my life fr.

16. fav moment with liv: ive got many but one specific one thats really special to me was when i came out to her & fine line by harry styles was playing & she almost crashed the car cause she was crying (WITH HAPPINESS LOL) it was very funny. that song has a special place in my heart bc of that <3 i also love when we go for late night drives and blast music. or when when we go to the beach at sunset with a bottle of wine>>>

17. r(egg) vs r(edge): im a r(redge) truther idc. i know his name is rEGulus but i am Not calling him r(egg) it sounds like EGG!!!!! r(edge) forever.

18. languages: sadly english is the only one i fluently speak. i know some italian but im not fluent (i blame my dad, whos literally from italy but didnt fucking teach me his language. wtf man) i also know some spanish and very very minimal french. i can read basic norwegian as well(i was obsessed with SKAM in 2015 so i had to learn some) BUT in terms of reading, i can read ancient greek and a bit of latin. also aurebesh which is a writing system from star wars (massive fucking nerd alert)

qs for u!

fuck marry kill evan reg barty

fuck marry kill pandora lily marlene

how many languages do u speak?

“too far away from sirius to be in the picture.” fuck fuck fuck this is the cause of my DEATH. i died and this is why. (pls one day catch them in a pic together. one of us shall do this. new mission.)

I KNOW HAPPIEST BIRTHDAY TO THE BEST MILF EVER <33333 (did you see theinvisiblemuseum’s fanart of lily ???? it’s so fucking good ???) & you’re right she would’ve so loved taylor swift (can imagine her dancing to lover with james)

tay tay <333

mr perfectly fine - JEGULUS - this song is fucking jegulus after they break up and regulus is all ‘you promised. you promised. you promised’ ‘Mr. "Leaves me all alone, " I fall apart// It takes everything in me just to get up each day’ IT’S LITERALLY HIMMMM. he left and regulus fucking shattered this is the TRUTH.

message in a bottle - JEGULUS - i’m thinking a celebrity au jegulus where they like date secretly or james is a fanboy then gets famous and reg writes a track for James’s movie (??? fic idea alert) AND I’M SO YES. THE MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE IS SUCH A REGULUS THING TO DO , TOO . (mr rab in a locket)

last kiss - JEGULUS / WOLFSTAR - this matches perfectly for both of them - except more wolfstar because in canon i think reg would’ve definitely known that they’d have a last kiss. and remus was the one who would’ve trusted him and all that shit. (and hello?? remus would so fuckin dance for sirius this is canon?? and wear his clothes after he’s in azkaban . )

fic rec for u (did i forget last time ?? i will not do this again , ‘tis a crime) - pink lemonade by moonysbookshelff (ft jegulus wolfstar rosekiller , with ace evan , and a happy ending , and also it’s a celeb au!!)

chatting !!!!

no because i’ve heard far too much of harry’s englishman accent when he’s yelling in some speech to sit through 2hrs of that shit.

“kids look this is a souvenir pic i took many years ago from my trip to london , the city of fashion & vibes.” “that’s a fucking pigeon mom.” (not a fucking pigeon why the fucking pigeon. no please no.)

but tbh pink is my favourite colour …. but i have too many shirts and trousers that i’d lose my mind to see as pink. so no thanks , no red socks today!!

YES OMG !!! podg ben barnes = sirius & dune tim = regulus !!!! this is canon major fucking canon !!!!!!!!! (it’s the smile and the facial expressions.) AND CALLING PAUL REGULUS THAT’S A CLOSE ONE . they might’ve found out the depths of your insanity then !!

yes yes godspeed but i did medium well on it. like everyone’s yapping on about the last q on the exam which they got like ‘4.35’ and i got 190 so idk. that’s like 2 marks i lost right then and there!!!

that lady should be arrested for war crimes. it was madness i tell you, MADNESS.

taylor and 1D over jazz , but you gotta try the jazz thing at least once. at least. it feels surreal, i’m telling you. this liz sounds so fucking cool high five to us dude we won the lottery of best friends.

wdym you didn’t know it was kentucky??? was there not a fucking colonel sanders standing right there ??? COLONEL SANDERS FOR THE WIN (i love kfc!) . this what i’m saying all fields look the same i can’t fuckin differentiate.

L & E // L & B —- > best motherfucking friends you will ever find ever. got the ‘married by 40’ pact with my dude too.

wine & books & fanfic > actual romantic satisfaction. alwaysssss. (i do not like her anymore. she’s consdescending as fuck. what the fuck do u mean ‘can’t believe u dk what a processor blah blah computer shit thingy is ??’ BITCH CAN U TELL ME WHAT A FUCKING KETONE IS ???? i thought not.)
