people on here keep talking about tropes that make me think they only read fanfic. or maybe im even more under a rock than i thought
#or perhaps a secret third thing:#ppl keep seeing one thing and contorting it to fit into what they wanna see. and THATS what theyre talking about#on this note 'fav ship dynamics:'you mean the fucking foils#developing my media literacy has been really rewarding but its also just made this whole site almost wholely unbearable#lightposts#nothing against fanfic btw i love fanwork. its just that on a wider scale it can get incredibly samey. and misinterpret. -y.

What if X felt human emotions more intensely than most? (And maybe have more mental breakdowns than most aswell)
#megaman x#rockman x#ロックマンx#mmx x#mmx zero#my art#fanart#well well well if it isnt me projecting onto X again#I drew this as a doodle at 11pm a few days ago but thought I could do it better digitally#if people want to see the og doodle I can post it#Anyway Zero doesn't know how to deal with X since if anything he struggles with interpreting emotions and not feeling enough#Did I make X have autism or bpd or perhaps both? Only the orb knows for sure#or a secret third thing (ptsd)#also wanted to try something new with the manga style since I've been reading the mmx manga over the past week#i think it came out well

still very much of the opinion that more people would appreciate pavel if they were able to look past the narrator's bias. the question of the narrator’s exact identity, ephemeral and shifting as it is, warrants consideration here as well.
#i made a tongue in cheek post about the narrator question in demons as well but#whether it’s dostoevsky himself (the whole time? perhaps only some of the time?)#or some amalgamation of the town itself#or some secret third thing in the vein of bakhtin’s uncontrollable characters theory#for all that the narrator loves alyosha they do not extend that same affection to pavel#(also interesting to consider how much of himself and his son he put into these two characters)#i suppose i’m separating narrator and narrative in my mind though bc i don’t believe you’re meant to#leave the story despising pavel. if anything i feel like it’s natural to feel the compassion for him that no one in the story could#i mean readers evidently feel it for ivan so why not his double?#the brothers karamazov#📘.txt#lit tag

Buddie Week Day 1: Secretly married
Hen is relatively certain she has their new probie, Buck, figured out. Him saying he has a husband throws her for a loop, but who hasn't lied to a naked man in handcuffs flirting with them before? But Buck only gets more confusing from there.
Or, Buck talks about his husband so much and so weirdly that no one is sure if he's actually married or not.
#buddie week 2024#eddie is sir not appearing in this fic except for four lines#truly we love hen in this household and this is a hen appreciation fic#this is not technically a secretly married fic but perhaps it is a secret third thing#buddie fic#911 fic

the aforementioned “the engagement got broken off and they actually went out together” pykas comic wip...page 2 (which i only show the bottom part of here) needs some reworking if i ever want to return to it so i want this version preserved for posterity i suppose.
#fire emblem echoes#python fire emblem#lukas fire emblem#i call it pykas and do like to read it as complicatedly romantically charged here but like-#part of what i love about the energy between these two is that fuzziness of them bonding over being emotional outsiders#a Secret Third Thing kind of feeling between platonic-romantic. that doesn't feel super uncommon when u meet other lgbt ppl. lol#anyway i perhaps project onto video game characters a little bit sometimes it is a fun pastime#fire emblem

if you must live, darling one — chapter 1
Chapters: 1/11
Word Count: 2,099
Relationships: Essek Thelyss/Caleb Widogast (Developing); Essek Thelyss/Original Character(s) (Past)
Summary:
For the last week of their excursion into Aeor, Caleb's companion has largely withdrawn, just when they'd begun to grow closer physically, even while they have avoided discussing what is between them.
Fearing he's overstepped, he follows Essek to the top floor of the Tower to ask, and finds him caught up in the fear of gaining a partner but losing a friend.
#critical role#cr fic#shadowgast#essek thelyss#this is fully developing relationship shadowgast for the record it's just like. the demi nonsense tangled up in it. cuz it's INTERESTING.#this is mostly character study with some thought experiment#me? capable of writing something short? THE WONDERS ALSO NEVER CEASE.#(we hope I am capable of it anyway lololol)#also for the record this is neither 'i think Essek is purely gay' nor 'i think Essek is perhaps bi' but a secret third thing#(recognizing that being aspec can be DEEPLY alienating and/or liberating from allo modes of relating to attraction)#so like. plenty of love in the past relationship! attraction? less that it's not present and more that the question of it is irrelevant.#but yanno. enjoy!

Man, it's funny growing up and hearing that gender is a social construct, but when I, a Gen Z, socially deconstruct The Gender, suddenly it's a fact of nature.

maybe if i keep public posting about how dumb of a concept the animal realm is in touhou, someone might deliver the lore i need to make it make sense right unto me..... wheee anyway lol same thing as beast yokai or perhaps ghosts or lol um not how survival of fittest works L or Wym Theyre Slaves Coz Dexterous Hands Youre All Anime Girls Rn ARE YOU DEAD OR ALIVE OR DIVINE OR WOT etc etc
#dear diary#touhou#if only there was a local lore smartass who knew things....#its a concept i rlly like but find hard to justify or pin down.#Why are animal spirits sent beneath hell? And human spirits?#Are they dead people? Yokai? Some secret third thing- abstract personifications of animalhood?#They say it isnt part of hell... But my best explanation is that its a RING of it#For the ambitious and greedy#Perhaps animal abusers or tyrants#They go to the Hell of Dog Eats Dog™ for a nice holiday?#but supposedly this isnt the caseeee

do you ever spend time scrolling because you're wayy too excited to pick up that book again because it's about your favourite topic and thinking about it makes you sooo stressed because it's your favouirte topic? or should i get diagnosed with autism
#secret third option: should i perhaps go to sleep instead? it's 28min past midnight and i have to bake tomorrow among other things like#doodling ryuk the shinigami from the anime (and manga) death note#started watching it again#this time i intend to finish it#it's fucking hilarious#we all know about the#“i will take a potato chip !!!! and EAT IT !!!!!!!!!!”#but there's a scene later on where L reveals that he's actually all of the top 3 detectives in the world and offers a police guy a#strawberry to keep his secret and the guy just goes like “mmmm” and PUTS IT IN HIS POCKET??????#not even joking#it's a comedy if you don't take it seriously#oh shit i SHOULD go to sleep because look at that i'm rambling again

Ive wondered about my fascination with ULTRA BEEFY characters.
'Tis not attraction, that i am sure of.
Would I want to be a fine musclebound specimen?, I've wondered - the answer is I wouldn't mind either way. I am fine being a beefcake. I am fine being who I am currently. What a wonderful sentiment to have - but one that would not translate into enthusiasm.
But I have finally placed the root of it all.
I want it to be like that one episode of Malcom in the Middle with Hank and the bodybuilders.
#However I also want the same thing in reverse with a handful of lanky looming critters where I open all their pickle jars#Not romantic. Perhaps platonic. But a secret and strong third thing - commensalism
