Watch Your Mouth

Dealing with someone talking shit about your man and you stand up for them because you're not about to let someone talk crazy about your man. A/N: I like to imagine this as an office girly scene and you have that one hater ass bitter coworker [Requested by: onliafaze]

Zayne

You could tell you were coming down with a cold and it was going to be a bad one. Zayne just so happened to have the day off and you were struggling to make it through your last shift before your days off. So being the loving boyfriend that he is, he brought you homemade soup and some cold medicine. He even kissed you before leaving not caring that you might get him sick as well. Just another reason to spend the day in bed with you. You sat at your desk with the biggest smile on your face. Suddenly a bitch with a voice like nails on a chalk board decided to insert herself into your bubble.

Hater: If you took better care of yourself your man wouldn’t have to waste his time coming all the way here to bring you soup MC: Weren't you sick last month and your man told you he was going to leave until you were healthy again and proceeded to ignore you for a week? Hater: ..... MC: Just because your man doesn’t care about you doesn’t mean you need to project on me Hater: I’m not projecting! MC: ………Whatever helps you sleep at night miss girl

Once you get home to tell Zayne what happened when he left, him being the sensible person that he is, suggests that maybe your coworker was just in a bad mood.

MC: Don't defend her Zayne: Sorry I meant her man hates her MC: Thank you

Rafayel

Rafayel truly had eyes for you and you only. He cared very little for others feelings you were the one and only exception. He also hated to be touched so when your coworker saw you constantly having a hand on him, when he would come by the office, she thought she’d try her luck. Rafayel immediately looked at her like she smeared the most vile thing known to man on his arm.

Hater: Your man is rude as hell MC: To you. Hater: No he’s just rude MC: To you. Hater: Why just me MC: You’re weird … who grabs on another woman's man right in front of her? You’re weird Hater: You’re rude as hell too you guys are made for each other MC: Cry about it

Rafayel stared at you in admiration while you told him what went down after he left.

Rafayel: Have I ever told you how hot you are when you get serious? MC: Yes all the time

Xavier

“Damn it I left my tea in my car” You had gotten all the way up to your desk when you realized what you were forgetting. On top of that it was cold so you were dreading having to walk in it again. Maybe you could make a cup in the office kitchen, but they only have sugar and you prefer honey; you prefer your tea. “I’ll go grab it for you just stay here and warm up” Xavier said as he appeared next to you with that soft expression he always has when he looks at you. “Thank you Xav you’re so sweet” You handed him your keys and watched as he quickly made his way out of the office before turning and smiling to yourself.

Hater: What is he a dog? Does he do everything for you? MC: ….. You know if your man hates you just say that Hater: M-my man doesn’t hate me w-why would you say that? MC: Look at you stuttering and shit did I hit a nerve? Hater: Whatever MC: Have the day you deserve babes!

Xavier approached you right as your coworker barged past him almost knocking the tea from his hand. He looked back with confusion etched across his face before turning back to you.

Xavier: What happened? MC: She was just admiring the relationship we have Xavier: What really happened? MC: She wanted smoke so I gave her a barbecue

Sylus

Thanks to Sylus wanting to spoil you at all time your office was the most decorated with all new everything and was even professionally designed to be organized and efficient. People loved to come by and admire your office set up. Except for one person who just seems to turn her nose up at you. She pouts for hours on end when Sylus makes his appearance to bring you lunch, flowers or even a ‘just because’ gift when he wants to see you. You ignored this bitter coworker day in and day out because why would you need the kind of negativity in your life? One day though she finally decided to voice her unwanted opinion to you.

Hater: You only have all of that because your man buys you everything MC: Yea … he does … tell your man to work harder Hater: That is so insensitive what if I'm single? MC: I can see why….. Hater: What's that supposed to mean!? MC: You're insufferable I wouldn't date you either

Sylus always found your attitude cute and it was even better when it wasn't directed at him.

Sylus: You said she was insufferable? MC: Somebody had to do it Sylus: and you were the perfect one for the job huh? MC: I was defending you praise me Sylus: I've never been defended before thank you Princess

As Luck Would Have It

Read here on Ao3!

Whumptober 2024 - Day 17 - Prompt: "We had a good run."

Rated: G | Words: 784

“Hey! Who threw my lucky blacks in the trash bin!” 

Echo sighs. He thought he had buried those things deep enough Wrecker wouldn’t notice. “Why are you digging through the bin?” 

Wrecker holds the undersuit close to his chest like they are his most precious possession. “You threw them away? Why?” 

“It’s a scientific wonder those things haven’t simply disintegrated,” Tech says, not looking up from his latest project taking up the barrack’s table. “Let them go, Wrecker.”

 “No, they’re fine!” Wrecker shakes out the garment before lovingly wadding them up in a ball. 

“Are you kriffing serious?” Echo asks, appalled. He begins counting on his fingers, using his scomp to point at each digit for emphasis. “They’re threadbare. They’re covered in holes. They smell like something crawled into them, died, and decomposed.” That last point counted for three. 

Tech chuckles. “That is an apt description.” 

“If I washed them, it would wash the luck off,” Wrecker says as if it is the most obvious thing in the world. 

“You haven’t washed them?” Echo cries. “Wrecker! That has to be a healthcode violation!” 

 Wrecker shoves the wad of cloth in his crate, and kicks the box under his bed. “What does it matter to you?” he asks. “They aren’t hurting anyone.” 

“The smell brings literal tears to my eyes!” Echo argues.

Wrecker smiles. “Not my fault you’re so sensitive.” 

Echo rolls his eyes. Obviously, this is an argument he is not going to win. 

**

Crosshair puts a hand over his nose. “Ugh, what is that vile smell?” 

 “Aw, shut up, Cross, they’re not that bad,” Wrecker says, pulling his offensive blacks from his pack. 

“They smell worse than they’ve ever smelled! What did you do to them?” 

Wrecker scowls. “Echo tried throwing them away, so I had to hide them. They never got a chance to air out.” 

“Kriff, you had one job, Echo,” Crosshair gripes. 

“He literally dug them out of the trash,” Echo grumbles, putting his helmet on and making sure the filter is on. 

“I don’t go around throwing away your guys’ stuff,” Wrecker grumbles. 

“Tell you what,” Crosshair says. “If I ever become insane enough to have something that disgusting, you have permission to burn it.”

Wrecker mutters something rude in Huttese, and begins to try untangling the limbs of the undersuit from their wadded mass. As he works at a particularly difficult knot, there is a loud ripping sound. Wrecker gasps. “Oh, no!” 

“You can’t honestly be surprised,” Crosshair deadpans. “Those threads were held together by filth alone.” 

“No, no, you don’t understand. I need these!” Wrecker cries, and Echo is stunned to realize that the giant is actually crying. 

If the startled look on Crosshair’s face is anything to go by, the sniper is just as surprised. 

Wrecker drops down into one of the crash seats, cradling the torn blacks in his hands. “I was wearing these the day that detonation went wrong,” he says, voice thick. He reaches up and touches the scars on the side of his head. “Could’ve killed me, but it didn’t. Ever–” his voice breaks, and he starts again. “Ever since, whenever I feel nervous about a mission, I’d wear these blacks, and nothing bad would happen, or if it did, it would turn out okay, ya know?” 

The tearful confession leaves Echo feeling lousy for trying to throw the blacks away to begin with.

“Listen, Wrecker,” Crosshair says. “Those blacks can’t do kark.” 

Echo scowls at the sniper. He isn’t helping. At all. 

But the man isn’t finished. “But if they could,” he continues, “you wouldn’t have to wear the whole thing for them to work. Here, give them to me.” 

Wrecker hesitates, sniffs, but hands the ruined article over. 

Crosshair pulls out a short blade, finds the cuff off one sleeve, and cuts it off. He holds up the circle of fabric. “Wear this. It’ll work the same.” 

“How do you know?” Wrecker asks, taking the cuff and slipping it over his wrist. 

“Because I said so,” Crosshair says. “If you can decide that a pair of blacks is good luck, I can decide that one cuff is just as lucky. Besides, now you can wear it all the time without worrying about it falling off your body.” 

Wrecker gives Crosshair a wobbly smile. “Thanks, Cross.” 

“Don’t mention it,” Crosshair grunts. He holds out the remainder of the fabric. “Now get rid of these before the noxious fumes kill one of us.”

Wrecker takes them, stroking the mutilated threads. “We had a good run,” he tells them. 

Crosshair rolls his eyes, but there is no heat in the action.   

Echo grins under his helmet. He knew the man was soft.

[unmotivated-writer]

Platonic yandere Vile Faculty:

Countess Cleo:

For The Countess to take notice of you and to start to care for you, you would probably have to be a somewhat classy and reserved student. She likes the students who don’t interrupt or ask too many questions during her lectures, after all it is very rude to interrupt someone who’s talking. If you do that and try your best in her classes you will certainly gain her favor (and favoritism).

Her signs of affection may start of small, things like a small but genuine smile when you answer correctly, asking you to stay after class and to your surprise offering you some tea and biscuits while the two of you talk, helping you discreetly when you're having trouble figuring out the answer.

If someone were to call her out on this behavior she would scoff at them and deny it until the very end. ‘Me playing favorites? Oh don’t be ridiculous!’ She would say angrily as she storms off to have some tea/wine with you while she rants about the “foolish” claims that are being said about her.

As things go by you will start to receive hand sewn clothes of the most expensive material known to man sewn and put together by the countess herself as well as a bunch of stolen jewelry regardless of your gender.

She also invites you to all her expensive dinner parties with ‘the rich and famous’ where you’ll be seated right next to her. If you ever were to decline an invitation no matter how politely she would act like you’d just told her that you hate her and that she can fuck of and die.

Coach Brunt:

Good fucking luck with her no matter what she says anyone can see that she is definitely NOT over Black Sheep. She is so overprotective and paranoid that you might leave like Black Sheep did. Expect a lot of smothering and attention from her, she will helicopter parent you to death and infantilize you. Although not intentionally she fully believes that what she is doing is normal and necessary. Trying to protest or argue with her over this will be waived off as nothing but ‘a fuzzy child tantrum’. There’s no way to argue with this woman and most people don’t try for that long since her patience is far from long. Since she is basically a PE teacher she has a habit of keeping an eye on your diet and somehow always thinks that you’re eating too little or that you're malnourished, she will force feed you if she sees fit.

Unlike Countess Cleo she plays favorites a lot and doesn’t try to hide it at all. Why would she? After all you’re the perfect little child and student (doesn’t matter how old you are she still sees you as a kid). Just don’t try to leave Vile and go along with what she wants and you’ll be fine but if you don’t then well…Don’t act surprised when you wake up in a room with cameras all around and your ankle chained to a bed with Brunt crying next to you asking what she did that would make you want to leave. Well no matter cause you’ll never get that chance ever again. Sucks to be you I guess.

Professor Maelstrom:

Maelstrom would be a very tricky and difficult platonic yandere to have on your tail. Nobody, not even himself, could explain why he started taking an interest in you either way he is aware of his obsession and accepts it wholeheartedly. He is a very secretive and manipulative man who can and will twist and warp your perception of the world or yourself. He somehow seems to know all of your inner workings and feelings. You could tell him that you like apples and he would go into detail on how that is connected to your childhood trauma/other issues, and the worst part is that he gets almost if not everything right about you. That of course creeps you the fuck out, which he notices and becomes absolutely delighted by.

This man is the inventor of gaslighting and manipulation if you ever even think about wanting to leave Vile he will know and gaslight the fuck out of you, imagine Mother Gothel from tangled but ten times worse. My thoughts and prayers are with you, you're going to need them when dealing with him as a platonic yandere .

Dr Bellum:

Saira would love a chaotic but smart student, all it takes is a few conversations and she’s already decided ‘Yep this is now my child I will teach them all about explosives and biological war crimes’. You and her would be an absolute force to be reckoned with and when you're not planning the most diabolical evil shit ever she’s showing you a bunch of funny videos of cats. She’s like a mom coming up to you and showing you facebook memes of minions but it’s cats instead.

She isn’t too obvious in her favoritism but she doesn’t try to hide it at all. If someone were to ask her if she had any favorite students she would say yes and then tell them all about how brilliant you are without any shame or hesitation. In her eyes there’s nothing wrong with playing favorites.

She no doubt has at least one drone following you around at all times just to keep an eye on you or she’s watching you from the security cameras all over campus. If you were to ask her about it she would lie and say that she’s working on a behavioral study but would refuse to give you any more details.

Please comment if you would like for me to write about having them all as platonic yanderes at the same time or if you would like for me to write about some other characters!

[konigsblog]

That mlmxreader blog also keeps claiming that you're sending your followers to go attack them and send death threats. They do a lot of arguing that your dark fic is not real dark fic and that you're purposely trying to trigger and retraumatise them - is what I gathered looking at a couple posts...

I think that for one, there are definitely writers who do romanticise some topics unhealthily with things such as rape/assault/torture, but I don't think you're one of those people? Like you frequently tag and keep stating that what you're writing is fiction, it's fantasy.

On that note, they keep trying to argue that CNC is the more "moral" kink to be writing vs. rape. I honestly think that rape fantasy is something people do fantasize about and can sometimes just not be CNC (bc they keep trying to pin it back to that kink). It's the fact that there's no established relationship and discussion like in most BDSM pairings where they talk about rape play. At the end of the day, you tag your works properly. I don't see much issue with writing what you want when you make sure to tag (which you do!) and are aware the subject you're writing about and its usual connotations (which you're also aware!). People can be mad and uncomfortable, but at the end of the day it's them who chose to keep talking about it. I think people need to get used to being uncomfortable on the internet. This is not a new concept and nobody here is a "hero" for anything.

Sorry I just paraphased some posts and asks with some of my own thoughts on it!

i mean, my content is supposed to be dark, it's dark content for a reason, and i'm not describing these characters to be standard; i'm writing them manipulative, vindictive, depraved, ect. i do appreciate you, anon, as you weren't rude, and instead polite. i appreciate it, my dear! 💗

i don't really care about this whole thing, but something i have never said was to send death threats. now, we don't know if they're lying – they could be – but, if they aren't, stop. i didn't tell anyone to send death threats, because i don't condone that. aside from death threats and mocking someone's trauma, i seriously don't care what you want to do. whether you don't block them, block them, whatever, they've made multiple posts directly insulting me in weird ass ways, so i couldn't really care about their immature opinion.

i'd like to point out something they said though, kinda funny, considering they've mentioned me multiple times outside of their callout post. they said they made ONE post about me with examples, that would be their callout post. but, they're not counting how they're talking about me in response to anons, or how they're mentioning me in their hashtags. it's childish. yes, you 100% have the right to not enjoy a certain kink/coping mechanism (because funnily enough, people use different ways to copes) but it's immature to name people, talk about how what i'm doing is "disgusting" or how i'm a "vile cretin" (like what lmfao 😭)

here's some screenshots of what i'm talking about when i say they've even insulted me, or made comments. this is 4/11 screenshots.

and comparing my supporters to an iof soldier... 😬 wtf is wrong with you? that's disgusting.

now, if anyone sends this to @mlmxreader, go ahead and let them know that they're not the centre of the world, them multiple posts taking about me and insulting me is immature on their end.

[crookedkryptonitebeliever]

in your earlier ask you said that yves is pretty much anti child so is he also anti pet? or maybe anti puppy/kitten/baby animal? when you described yves pretty much conditioning reader to dislike kids it reminded me when i got my kitten when she was three weeks old. it was during the lockdown so although i was there 24/7 i was lacking sleep because she refused to sleep on her own and i had to feed her every two hours and when she got older she got hyper and i needed to play with her so she could chill out a little more. i remember as i put her to sleep in my lap for the third time i thought to myself “is this what babies are like? but worse, dirtier and for a longer time?” as much as i love my little fur baby i don’t think i could go through that again so i wonder yves’ thoughts on pets. he gives off those vibes that he hates fur everywhere and can’t stand barking lol. but then again if reader wants a pet im assuming he’ll accommodate somehow.

Pets that need his constant attention like most mammals and noisy animals like the majority of birds are a big no for him.

However, he doesn't mind having reptilians as pets. As long as they're big enough to not lose them. He is indifferent to fishes, but he sees them more as home decor than actual living beings. Something akin to owning lava lamps.

He especially likes snakes. It fits with the aesthetic of his house and they're one of the lowest maintenance pets there is. He would meet all of its physical needs, but other than that, he wouldn't care to spend more time with it than necessary. The snake will be locked up in its enclosure at all times, unless you want to interact with it and he knows that your personality wouldn't lead to trouble. He knows everything there is to know about the snake, yet he sees it as a mere display piece for his living room.

Yves despises insects, he uses the presence of them as a sign that the environment isn't clean, and he does not appreciate having to think his house is filthy. No matter how much research he does on them and how many results show that insects do not necessarily equal dirty, Yves just could not accept them.

He is not squeamish, though. Yves despises them but he is not afraid of them, he knows how to handle a tarantula gently and keep calm when it decides to crawl under his turtleneck. If you threw a bucket of cockroaches on him he would not scream or flail, he would dodge it gracefully before dusting himself off. If any got onto him, he will just pick them off his clothes as if they're paper stickers. Yves will not beat around the bush and try to find a roll of newspaper or a bug spray, he is squashing that colony of spiders with his bare hands.

The way he could simply grab a handful of mealworms without hesitation makes the world think he loves bugs. He doesn't, not one bit.

You could simply shove him in a vat full of writhing maggots and he would come out as if he took a leisure swim in the pool, combing his hair with his fingers to get rid of any leftovers.

Yves would be annoyed more than horrified, lecturing you that pushing him into ponds of worms is rude while he jerks his head to expel the ones that are stuck in his ears.

Not to say he is inept at taking care of them. Yves can be an excellent caretaker for any and every animal. His research skills are unbelievably godly and he loathes the idea of him being perceived as incompetent in anything.

Yves also has a strangely high tolerance for all things disgusting and vile, he could clean up the most brutal bloody murder scene complete with mutilated bodies, decomposition, faeces, urine, vomit and other bodily fluids without wearing gloves or a gas mask; and still have an appetite to eat lunch immediately after. Vacuuming fur and sifting through the litter box is nothing to him. He just does not find much fulfillment in owning a pet. Hence, a pet becomes a parasite in his life, and he detests all things vermin.

If you wanted a furry companion so badly, he will hit the books and review the patterns in your life again.

Do you really want a pet or are you actually just bored? If it's the latter, he could effectively fill your time and make you forget about your desire for an animal companion. He could also negotiate his way out of this too.

Are you someone who hyper fixate on something or someone, then lose all interest after a few months? Then, he could wait it out. Taking care of your newest breathing toy as he counts down until you finally decide to abandon it and move on to greener pastures.

Are you someone who easily gives up at the first encounter of a problem? Maybe all it takes for you to drop the interest entirely is a meow that's too loud or a nip that's a bit too painful. He's going to train the animal to misbehave around you.

Are you someone who is susceptible to peer pressure? He is going to train your pet to misbehave around your loved ones. Manipulate your friends and family into thinking that you're an abusive or neglectful pet owner. He doesn't have to say a word to you, everyone is doing the pressuring for him.

Maybe you would fold under his dour glare and stern words, he can be quite scary at times. That generally reduces anyone into a shivering, crying mess that will not bring up the things that displeases him. This is usually the second-last resort to anything.

Perhaps you're a fierce animal lover and have a strong portfolio of being a cat or dog owner. You wouldn't give your beloved four legged friends up for the world, you will fight for them till your very last breath. Someone with unbreakable maternal/paternal instincts towards your precious fur babies. Giving them up is not in the equation.

Well, he is not above traumatizing you for life.

When push comes to shove, you might find your trusted non-human companions betraying you by lacerating your extremities to the point of no repair. Puncturing your throat with its sharp canines and claws, leaving you to breathe on a ventilator while Yves takes care of you in the hospital.

Or he could direct the attack to someone else, make you liable for lasting damages and having to put your seemingly rabid pets down. You would also have to live with the guilt of knowing you're mainly responsible for disfiguring that poor child's face, changing his life for the worse, just because you "didn't" train them well.

He warned you not to test him. Yves has been lenient and his patience has reached its limits. He may love you and want the best for you, but he is also very, very selfish.

[zhongster]

I saw your post about starting dungeon meshi and I totally agree that it has SO MUCH potential for food related kinks so I wanted to ask if you have any headcanons? Especially for the main characters?

I absolutely do dearest, I also included Toshiro despite him not being part of the main cast because he’s my personal favorite character <3

THIS IS KINK CONTENT, DNI IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT

Laios:

He’s a little stupid (affectionately) so he tends to eat things that he very much shouldn’t with concerning regularity

Because of this he’s no stranger to indigestion of all levels of intensity

His burps are pretty big

Probably the loudest in the group, honestly

He and Falin were definitely raised with manners considering who their parents are so he DOES know how to mind his manners he just doesn’t see the point in being uptight about it when it’s just people he considers his close friends

Gets all excited when he lets out a really good one like “Guys did you hear that?! :D”

Lowkey loves when he can taste the last thing he ate when he burps

“It’s like I get to eat it again!”

Marcille and Toshiro think he’s absolutely vile for that

His burps are really deep and loud but pretty short

He doesn’t usually get more than one in a row unless he’s particularly bloated

Here’s a video reference

Marcille:

High pitched burps

Pretty long ones too

She gets so embarrassed if they manage to slip out when she’s with the others

Unfortunately for her she often has to consume things in pretty rapid succession when she’s trying to replenish her mana

This’ll usually lead to pretty intense burping fits that she has little to no control over

Long drawn out burps just force their way out of her as she hides behind her hands

Here’s a video example

Senshi:

I feel like it just feels right to say he has incredibly deep, bassy belches

He’s literally a dwarf man idk

Tries his best to be polite about it but he really doesn’t trip if he lets one out

Will typically try to burp into his fist and face away from anyone he might be with

He tries to be a gentleman 😫

Oddly enough he doesn’t actually burp very often

He has a stomach of steel (aside from motion sickness lmao) so nothing he eats really upsets his stomach at all like some of the others

Here’s a video example

Chilchuck:

Legitimately the CEO of idgaf

Burps whenever he feels like he needs to

Won’t burp on command because he thinks it’s juvenile but absolutely will not hold a burp in unless it’s for stealth reasons

He doesn’t care if people judge him

The only time he burps on purpose is if he’d already burped naturally and someone told him to excuse himself

His immediate response is to flip said person off and let out an even louder belch

Luckily for him most of his companions really don’t trip if he burps (probably only Toshiro)

Here’s a video reference

Falin:

Falin’s burps are actually surprisingly bassy

Probably bassier than her brothers

Which serve as a pretty stark contrast to how soft spoken she is

It’s a bit of a surprise for people the first time they hear her burp because it seems a bit unlikely that such a loud sound could come from her

I do think she tends to get a bit embarrassed if they slip out in front of anyone that isn’t either Laios or Marcille

She tries really hard not to be rude and gross people out and she knows that some people in their company don’t really like it when others burp around them

Here’s a video reference

Toshiro:

Out of all the characters he’s the one that’s most likely to get horrifically embarrassed if he accidentally burps in front of someone else

Especially since he’ll actively scold any of the others for burping out loud so he feels particularly awful when he can’t hold one back

It’s even more rare to hear him burp than Senshi but it has been known to happen on occasion

Especially since I feel like he’s definitely the type to have a bit of a sensitive stomach

Similar to Marcille, when something upsets his stomach there really isn’t much he can do to stop the burping fit he knows is coming

He typically tries to hide from everyone when this happens but his burps are loud enough that they can usually hear anyway

They’re also extremely long so his brain has time to realize he’s fully belching in front of another person before it’s even ended

Has never once freely burped in front of another person, they’re always muffled behind his hands, his closed mouth, or both at once

Whenever he burps in front of another person he has to apologize 8000X before he can move on

Laios has been known to compliment his burps whenever he’s around to hear them which Toshiro absolutely HATES

Here’s a video reference

[natasha-in-space]

I was so happy to see that the mysmes fandom is still somewhat alive on tumblr, thank you *smooch*

Could I request Jumin with a popular Idol/Actress!MC? I feel like the dynamic would be interesting because most of the women Jumin's dad dated were celebs and all. I got this idea after watching Oshi no Ko, oddly enough-

Ohhh, that is certainly a very interesting dynamic to think about, anon! I decided to go with you being a popular idol. Considering the way his route canonically plays out, I can't really see you being able to hide your identity from him, so I'll go with the initial idea that he learns about your relative fame from pretty much early on in the game. To address the elephant in the room: yes, it would probably take him much longer to open up to you... not because of anything you do specifically, but simply because of his past experiences with figures of fame. It'd be one thing if you didn't know who he was, or he didn't know who you were. But, you are both in a position where you can easily exploit the other for whatever gain you deem useful in the long-run of your career. At least, that's how he views it. Jumin has... a very, very bad history with influential figures barging into his personal life. It made him learn to put up tall walls to protect himself. Jumin doesn't want to get exploited, and he doesn't want to be viewed as a prize to be won. So, be prepared for a very closed-off Jumin Han on your hands. That doesn't mean he'll be rude, though.

He's simply being very careful about what he types in the chatroom. After all, V has decided to make you their new party coordinator for a good reason, and he trusts his childhood friend's judgment with his full heart. There is no reason for quarrels in the RFA. He will treat with respect you deserve, but will keep his distance.

However, as you slowly get to know one another, he will start to open up, little by little. You never force him to talk about anything he's uncomfortable discussing. You pay attention to what he says and you're interested in actually getting to know him as a person, and not a public figure. You're there for him when he feels dejected and lonely after a miserable dinner with his father and his new exploitative girlfriend. And, ever so slowly, he starts to realize that... you're not like any of those vile people his father always tended to bring into his life. You see him, not his status. And that makes his chest feel tight with an emotion he can't quite put his finger on.

I can see the rest of his route playing out relatively similar to the canon one, with a few small differences. Firstly, Jumin would probably try and keep you away from his father for as long as he can. It's not anything against you, he just... Well, when your father somehow seduces more than a few of your seemingly trustworthy personnel, you'd start developing habits to prevent that from happening ever again. It leaves a bitter aftertaste in his mouth, and you should talk with him about this issue one-on-one. It's not about the lack of his trust in you, it's about the lack of his trust in his father, even if he initially denies it. Hold his hands and reassure him that everything is going to be alright. He needs to hear that from you.

Secondly, the whole 'arranged marriage' thing would probably resolve much faster than in the game. It's a very crappy excuse on his part, but Jumin's father will be much more lenient to let his son do whatever he wants once he learns that you're quite an influential figure. It's one thing to break up a couple when he has all the power to spin the story in his son's favor, and it's completely another when you have the power to fire back at them and cause serious damage to their company's reputation. Again, it's a rather twisted way of looking at things, but it is what it is. You'll have many issues to resolve with Jumin's father and his attitude towards you and his son.

Now, as for an already established relationship with Jumin in this scenario, I do have a couple of headcanons! He visits all of your concerts, but he doesn't really like to attract any unwanted attention to himself. He gets the best seat, of course, since he wants to see you shine in all your glory, but it's not anything too fancy. He's here for you, not the press. Your professional lives are independent from each other, and you two respect the work you put into your individual careers on a deeply personal level. It's actually rather sweet. Of course, the fact that you two are dating will affect your popularity in one way or another, but you will never use that to your advantage. You may be a popular idol, and Jumin may be the future head of the C&R corporation, but your love for each other is simple and quiet. Between closed doors, you two are just normal people loving and cherishing each other, nothing more and certainly nothing less.

What Jumin will do, though, is accompany you on your tours, whenever his schedule allows it. After all, you often do the same for his own business trips, so it's your guys' form of travel! His favorite thing is visiting you at your recording studio. Don't get him wrong, he adores seeing you dancing and interacting with your fans with grace and charm... But, nothing beats the opportunity to hear you sing. Your voice is something that can easily make him melt within just a few moments of hearing you hum a certain tune, even after years of knowing each other by this point. It always brings out the softest of smiles on his face as he quietly watches you sing, his heart fluttering to life just like the first time he saw you face-to-face in his penthouse.

Jumin truly thinks you're the most inspiring and amazing person in the whole world. For him, you are the brightest star that helped his tired eyes see the threads suffocating him in the cold but comfortable darkness he has lived his whole life in. You gave him the warmth and light he needed to set himself free and open his heart to the world, and he's forever grateful for you stumbling into his life like a wild hurricane.

Shell 4.2 Live Reactions

(This is me, writing reactions as I read, because why the fuck not. They're not complete, mature thoughts taken after I sit back and evaluate what I've read. Consider them as such)

“We’re updating your wardrobe,” Lisa decided, after we’d left the boys behind. “What’s wrong with my wardrobe?” I asked, a bit defensively. “Nothing, really.  It’s just very… you.  Which is the problem.” “You’re not making me feel better, here.”

Rude. :P

“Your personality is reflected in your fashion choices.  Muted colors.  Brown, gray, black, white.  If you are wearing something with color to it, you’re wearing it under a sweatshirt, sweater or jacket.  Never anything that would stand out.  Never showing much skin.  While most people our age are picking clothes with the intention of defining an identity for themselves, fitting into a clique, you’re focused on staying out of sight and not attracting attention.  You’re being too cautious, overthinking things you don’t need to, always making the call to play it safe.”

Not quite clear on how this is bad.

“More to the point, I’m seeing you alternate between the same two pairs of jeans every day, when you got a paycheck for two grand five days ago.  If I don’t make you buy clothes, I don’t think you’re going to.”

Probably fair.

“Not that one,” she waved at the dress, a plaid number, predominantly red and white.  Annoyed, I shut the curtain.

What, Lisa's power tells her if a Taylor will be able to pull off a given dress?

I finished doing up the buttons of the dress and opened the curtain, “Ever think I didn’t want you prying?” She undid the top button. “What you want and what you need are two different things. 

A very fair point. Just not sure I'd always trust Tattletale to be able to pick out 'need' as well as she thinks.

“I could help make the suckish parts suck less,” she offered. I swear my blood turned cold in my veins.  I could just see her showing up at school, taunting Emma.  I think the prospect of facing down Glory Girl again would spook me less.  

Why? Emma, WHY?! Take the fucking help. I get that you've been beaten down so hard you don't see a way out, but seriously, fucking take the help.

Goddamn Teenagers.

“You need to get used to showing some cleavage.  Like I said, be bold in your fashion choices.” “I’d be fine with showing some cleavage if I had anything to show,” I pointed out.

I feel like I shouldn't be laughing at this line.

“You’re taller than a thirteen year old boy, don’t be silly.  Besides, whatever you look like, whatever your body type, there’s bound to be someone out there who thinks you’re the hottest fucking person they’ve ever seen.” “Fantastic,” I mumbled, “There’s a sketchy pedophile out there with my name on him.”

Taylor, you're a tall girl with very nice hair. Tall. Just accept that you're bi and you'd have a whole new world open up.

Lisa laughed, “Go, try something else on.  But throw the jeans over the top.  I’m buying them for you, and if you never wear them, I’ll have to be content with you feeling guilty about it.”

Vile manipulations of a true villain! :P :rofl:

“Do me a favor and don’t go telling the gang how badly I let things slip, as far as Panacea being one of the hostages.  If they ask outright, you can say, I won’t ask you to lie.  But if they don’t ask, maybe don’t bring it up?”

I can't help but feel like She's got a second motive here, but I can't for the life of me guess what it would be.

“Something less intense,” I decided, “I’m kind of feeling like I jumped into the deep end of the pool without entirely knowing how to swim.  I’d prefer to get to know my powers better in the field, figure out how to deal with situations, before I’m up against people like Lung and Glory Girl, who are literally capable of tearing me limb from limb.”

She really has skipped the Tutorial, hasn't she?

“I know it’s kind of cliche, but when people with powers get together, isn’t it kind of standard to share origin stories?”

I just - I dunno, I feel like I have some trouble believing that Taylor, in-universe, wouldn't know not to ask this?

This feels more like a line that has to happen for the reader to get the info, rather than a line someone in-story would actually be saying here?

PSA: SORRY ANOTHER RANT BUT THIS TIME ITS ABOUT TATIANA NOT MAKING SENSE AND ALASTAIR MAKING ALL THE SENSE IN THE WORLD LIKE CAN HE HAVE ALL THE LOVE YET

“It is not your fault”, said Alastair. “None of this is your fault. Benedict Lightwood brought down vileness upon his own family, and Tatiana could not accept either his culpability or her own.”

“You sound very wise”, Thomas said. For a moment, it was as if and Alastair were alone on the street, surrounded by the icy sheen of london in winter, the cold itself a sort of protective circle around the two of them.

“Guilt is one of the most sickening feelings there is,” Alastair said. “Most people will do anything to avoid feeling it. I know I-“ he took a deep breath. “One can either refuse to accept it, push it away as blame others, or one can take responsibility. One can bear the unbearable weight.”

He sounded exhausted.

“I have always wanted to bear it with you,” said Thomas quietly.

“Yes,” Alastair said. His eyes were bright with cold. “Raziel knows, perhaps that is the reason I have not become like Tatiana myself. You keep me human Tom.”

I always love these lines by Alastair and Thomas. I hated Tatiana’s whole villain arc. you got your son killed and your father involved himself with demons and got himself infected while harming your mother and somehow it’s Gabriel, gideons, jems, as well as Will and Tessa’s fault? I hate Will and Tessa but they did not turn Benedict into a monster. Tatiana reminds me a lot of Benedict. they both seem to be the type that never want to blame themselves. I couldn’t see Benedict ever holding himself accountable. the sad thing is his prolific activities is the reason Gabriel and Gideon and Tatiana lost their mother. it’s Benedict’s fault he didn’t think Tatiana shouldn’t have been trained in combat.

out of all the villains in TID, Alastair seems to be the only one who had good cause to be one. you can technically count him as a villain or at least the merry thieves did. it was either be bullied or be a bully for Alastair. lots were racist towards him at shadowhunter academy. I’m not saying he’s a perfect villain (he never seemed to be a villain but I’m trying to look at it through the merry thieves pov) but he seems to be the only good villain they had. Tatiana’s actions never made sense and belial seemed to be a very weak prince of hell. there’s too much plot armor around the main characters. you can’t tell me that they could defeat a prince of hell like that. Belial seemed very amateur. if you compare him to shadowhunter show villains (asmodeus and azazel), their power holds. what I hate is seeing a powerful villain or any character being overtaken by a lesser being. PLOT ARMOR I HATE YOU

with me, I need a villain I can root for. not all of them need to have their reputations restored but Alastair once again wins in this category. I love Alastair but I hate how the merry thieves pin him as this evil person for the longest time. the shadowhunter academy books and TLH are two very different stories. they almost don’t make sense. (it reminds me of TEC and TMI where we see healthy Malec in one and toxic Malec in the other. or how Alec and Magnus in TEC have their own minds but they’re out in the backseat in TMI) we see Alastair be a bully in the academy book but we don’t see him being rude towards the merry thieves in TLH without reason

Alastair has every reason to have issue with Matthew and James

1. from the looks of it, James seems to be in love with Grace. Alastair isn’t about to have his sister be used

2. Matthew is an alcoholic and Alastair more than anyone knows how that works. he protected Cordelia so often from her father so she could have a childhood so no way in hell will he allow this life for her. he doesn’t want to see Cordelia hurt or destroyed. a woman’s reputation then could have easily been destroyed

3. while it’s understandable why they would view Alastair as vile from their academy days, Matthew seems to be the one who points the gun at Alastair first in TLH no matter what (and look it’s been months since I read it so it’s not super clear in my mind but I remember Matthew being the instigator first)

4. worst of all- Matthew guilts Alastair into being there for Charles- the man who hurt Alastair badly and it seems like Matthew knows this

and I’m not excusing any of Alastair’s behavior but at least he changes. yes he was a bully and he did bad things in the academy. Alastair himself knows this. he’s not excusing any of his behavior. he doesn’t go around throwing excuses and defending his behavior. (I love myself some character who does bad things but can grow from it) and he’s not really that awful to James and Matthew in TLH first. he seems to actively try desperately to be a good person throughout the series. so it’s one thing to say hey Alastair was a dick in academy but if you’re going to write TLH and not show us, it does nothing for us.

what about when Matthew sneaks into Cordelia’s room after Elias dies and I can’t remember the exact words but says some shit about Alastair. he tells Thomas of Alastair’s past actions which obviously Thomas deserved to know but Matthew only says it out of anger. Alastair should have been the one to tell Thomas. inappropriate pov and plots ya know.

and I see a lot of matthews behavior being accepted. they start to be friendly in chain of thorns but there’s no discussion or any development between them. it’s quiet and goes unnoticed because CC decided to spend half the fucking book of Cordelia and James not communicating

none of this is hateful- I love Alastair and I love Matthew. I just think it’s a shame we didn’t get to see their relationship actually developed. I understand why Alastair can’t stand him but I also see matthews reasoning. he bought in Alastair’s words so much that he harmed his sibling. he takes his anger out on Alastair but a lot of it is Matthew hating himself. I also find them to be the most interesting characters in the series who get shitty treatment and are overlooked

and Tatiana is one of the most boring doesn’t make any sense villains. I’ll never forgive her for killing Kit or being the reason Barbara is dead or the fact Cordelia kills her. there’s not much of a discussion with her brothers who I feel have the most rage against her. she’s not developed very well. CC has a pattern of not developing her villains well enough. I love a good villain but I need a reason to relate or root for them. they don’t all need to be fixed, some can stay bad but if they don’t make sense, I can’t buy into it. they need to win me over

and my whole point is that Alastair figures out the whole taking responsibility thing. he has so much to be angry about. not having a childhood, racist people all around, Charles treating him awful, being guilted into being around Charles, not having Thomas when he wants, Cordelia also being awful to him, never feeling a priority but what’s great about Alastair is he chooses not to sink in the im going to be mad no matter what

I love Thomas saying I always wanted to bear it with you because it shows that Thomas accepts Alastair. he wants to help Alastair anyway he can. Thonas wants to grow with Alastair. you can always improve your ways. Thomas sees Alastair trying to change and be a better person. and honestly just my opinion, but he seems to be good from the start of the series. maybe I’m the only one who feels that way but a lot of his behavior seems a bit justified if you look at things from his pov (DONT COME AT ME IM NOT MAKING EXCUSES JUST SEEING THINGS FROM HIS POV)

Alastair has been through so much guilt and he knows that he could have suffered in blaming others or taking accountability. my love for Alastair stems from him always growing. he understands his behavior was unacceptable in the last years but inside and out, he is good. and for a character who always gets put through it, doesn’t get povs, gets left behind- it’s actually miraculous CC ever had him grow. but she does have a habit of hating certain characters and having them grow vs never allowing a character she obsesses grow

he protects Cordelia, he’s the best brother to Zachary, even when Thomas is upset with him- he’s still there trying to help him anyway he can. HE LITERALLY FUCKING TAKES CARE OF CHARLES AFTER CHARLES HURT HIM

I guess my whole point of this is I LOVE ALASTAIR CARSTAIRS AND HE DESERVES ALL THE LOVE IN THE WORLD

my man looked at Tatiana’s actions and was like well she is childish, petty, and miserable- and that’s exactly the person I don’t want to be so fuck that lifestyle I’m going to be a good bloody person. we love him for that

[sophieinwonderland]

This influx of people saying "don't be mean to anti-endos they are just misunderstanding the term!" Really doesn't make sense to be, like hey weren't most of us taught to like stand up against bullies? Not hold hands and sing songs with them? No? Just me? Has like anyone else realized that being nice and explaining yourself to bullied just gets you bullied harder and it's a lot better to stand up for yourself??

You do not have to sit here and be kind with someone who is against your existence and has said very vile things about it. This isn't even a matter of like "they just misunderstand it" no they just don't listen when you explain it, they have their own belief of what endogenic is and will refuse else wise, it is weird to say that you have to be nice to someone who is very rude to you.

In the end, I feel that life is about balance.

If someone seems like they're open to change or willing to learn, then I absolutely believe you should be willing to teach them.

I do think you can sometimes change people by being nice. But you also need to recognize when people will see niceness as a weakness to take advantage of and hurt you.

Something that bothers me is that I feel like too many people are taking it to one extreme or the other. This idea that we should be nice all the time, and not call anti-endos bigots or a hate group because that's too "mean" feels incredibly harmful.

Conversely, I will also say that I have been disappointed when I have seen an anti-endo ask what appears to be a good faith question, or at least a question that could be in good faith, and ends up met with hostility for it by people who have been burned too many times.

I guess, what I want to get across is that I don't want the message that people take away from my posts to be that they should never be kind to anti-endos. But that kindness isn't always going to be the answer. There will be times when kindness won't work. Or when by trying to be kind, you are doing a greater harm.

[croissantlover24]

The first thing you did when you arrived home was open your computer and search up on Googol what Fazbear Entertainment's email was. Once you found it, you wrote out a hefty letter about their treatment of their aquatic life and how disgusting it was that their innocent sirens were so malnourished and cold. You ended off the email with your name and, after taking a deep breath to cool your rapidly reddening vision, clicked "send." In less than ten minutes, you received a reply.

TEN MINUTES?????? JEEZ.....

"Dear member," they wrote back. "While we find your concern for our sirens incredibly endearing—" they sounded venomous in their word choice—"we must inform you that there is nothing wrong with them. They are fed on a constant basis and have a perfectly normal temperature. We request that you leave the animal care to the professionals who know what they are dealing with. They are doing a much better job than a novice of your stature would."

THAT. IS VILE????????? THEY CANNOT BE BEING SO RUDE???????

How professional, you thought dryly. You narrowed your eyes at the name on the bottom of the reply. Vanessa. Of course. Seeing how rude the email you received was, you let your hotheadedness get to you and sent another reply back.

Vanessa.....

"Dear Fazbear Entertainment Staff," you wrote, the keys on your computer clicking loudly with each letter, "as a marine biology student specializing in the treatment of oceanic species, I would love to put your doubts to the test. I'm quite sure, with all due respect, that I certainly could do better than your staff." You were cocky. Confident. Almost embarrassingly so.

Uh Oh

Vanessa promptly put you back in your place. Her response was brief, but long enough to make your hands shiver. What had you just gotten yourself into? "Dear member," her response stated bitterly, "we welcome you to come to the establishment at 9:00 A.M. tomorrow to show us the 'right way' to take care of the sirens. Don't be late." You swallowed hard. Could you do this? … You scolded yourself mentally. Of course you could do this. You specialized in this.

OOOOOH BOY.... Reader.....

You couldn't do this. The building seemed menacing in the early morning light, a fire to the match that you were. The wind bit at the exposed flesh of your ankles. You held your coat tighter around yourself, took a few shaky breaths, and waltzed in. "Hello," Vanessa greeted. Her tone was sour, more so than the most tart lemon. "Hi," you said back dully. "We feed them four fish a day," she began, walking towards one of the back rooms you hadn't noticed the day before.

ONLY FOUR?!

"That's nowhere near enough," you interrupted. "Sirens of their stature need at least twice that. They seem like they're still growing—their teeth are more blunt than they should be—so I'd even give them thrice the amount." "Mhm," Vanessa ground out between gritted teeth. Your cockiness put her on edge. "We keep their tanks at 60 degrees Fahrenheit." Seeing you were about to interject again, she raised her voice and continued, "We also clean their tanks every other day and clean their teeth every night—as you stated, they're still growing, so they haven't been able to clean themselves."

I must say, Vanessa is a Very Unprofessional individual. Biting her.

She paused in her walking. You abruptly stopped as well just before you would have barreled into her. "Well, except for Moon. He attacks any staff that try to touch him." "Who's in charge here?" you snarled. "You're mistreating your fish. When was the last time you cleaned Moon's teeth?" "Never," Vanessa replied in a tone so certain you wanted to retch. This was nearing animal abuse, if it wasn't there already. "The scientist we had in charge quit last week."

I'm pretty sure this is just straight up animal abuse....

"Who did you replace them with?" you pressed. "No one," she deadpanned. "We haven't replaced her yet." You must've made a face, because Vanessa rolled her eyes. She shoved four salmon into your hands. "Go on," she said with a wolfish smile, "show us how much better you are at this than the professionals, student."

HISSING AT VANESSA

With an impassive expression—she didn't need to see your fury—you dropped the four fish into the tank. The two sirens swam over immediately, including the "violent one." Neither fish seemed to recognize you, far too interested in their food. Of course they were more interested in nutrition. They were so thin, so malnourished. You dropped four more in. Then eight more. Then eight more again. "Quit it," Vanessa growled, pulling you away from the tank. "You're wasting our fish." "I wouldn't need to 'waste' your supply of fish if you had fed them right the first time," you hissed back.

The poor sirens were probably starving... certainly even.

She narrowed her eyes but said nothing else. She led you to the heaters, watching with her arms crossed as you turned the heat up to more sea-like temperatures in seconds. "That," you glared at her, "is better." The machinery whirred and squealed behind you to make up for the sudden increase. She scoffed in annoyance. Her eyes widened, however, as she got a brilliant idea. Well, an awful one for you, but the perfect one for her to get back at you for your impish behavior. She shoved a bunch of supplies into your arms. "Go clean Moon's teeth."

Hm,, this might not go excellent, but considering Moon knows them and was relatively civil with them yesterday, it might go better than I expect

"What?" you hissed. "You heard me," she countered. "Sit on the edge of his enclosure and clean his teeth. You can do it, can't you? Since you know everything about fish?" You glowered at her. There were only two ways this could go. One, you would succeed, and Vanessa could go eat dirt. Two, the siren would get mad with a person invading his space and kill you. Were you willing to take the risk? You mulled over your options. Were you really about to risk your life over a bitter argument? No. But you were willing to risk your life for the sakes of these abused fish, and cleaning their teeth would definitely be beneficial.

As long as you are careful, and try not to force Moon into coming over to have his teeth cleaned, I think this could go pretty decent!

"Alright," you relented, much to Vanessa's shock. You walked over to the window that opened into Moon's enclosure and waited. And waited. You were patient. You would let "the violent one" approach you on his own terms. You would not rush him.

YEAAAAAAH! You get it, Reader!

Soon enough, you heard growling coming from one of the patches of seaweed. You closed your eyes so he knew you weren't watching him, so he knew you were giving him space. Tap, tap, tap. After the familiar rapping of his claws on the glass echoed out into the dark chamber, you opened your eyes.

:DDDDD

Moon grinned up at you from where the surface of the water met the air. He seemed healthier already after having more to eat, thankfully. He flexed his scales, which were jaw-droppingly beautiful. His fins swayed with the gentle motions of the water. His ruby eyes pierced yours. "Hello," you said.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

You waved to him. He waved back. You were only a few feet away from him. His claws were so much larger than they had originally appeared. You couldn't help the anxiety that bubbled in your throat at the notion of him using them to rip you apart.

Slow movements, and being sure not to startle him should be enough to keep you safe

You moved closer to the opening, only a few inches from being dropped into the tank now. Your motions were slow and careful as to not frighten him. You ensured Moon could see you at all times. The last thing you needed was him interpreting you as a threat.

They get it!!!! They get it!!!!!!!!!!!!

You placed the cleaning supplies for his teeth down beside you and dipped a hand into the water. You moved your hand back and forth, feeling the temperature. It was satisfactory. Moon watched you intently. You flinched as claws locked around your wrist. You looked down. The siren was eyeing your appendage intently. You smiled at him, hoping he'd return the gesture to see his teeth.

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

He did. His grin was spread wide, flashing each of his dirty teeth. You grimaced. Moon let go of you. "Wait," you implored. He tilted his head. "Your teeth are dirty." You felt foolish talking to a fish, especially with the viper—your new nickname for Vanessa—watching. "Can I help you clean them?"

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's it! He does seem to understand English, so talking to him should be helpful!

Much to your surprise, he opened his mouth wide. He could easily swallow you whole, you noted in terror. You took a deep breath, picked up the tools, and cleaned his teeth. Moon was still and silent. Comfortably so. The rhythm of the action calmed you.

YIPPEEE!!!!!!!!!!

Vanessa gaped from her position a few feet in the distance, shock painting her face. She clearly had not expected you to be able to "tame the beast." You grinned at her. You had won this argument… "We ought to offer you a job," she murmured, eyes wide in begrudging respect. …but at what cost?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Final thoughts: See how easy it is when you treat things nicely, Vanessa?

I love how you’re telling Reader what to do when they’re the marine biologist lol

Vanessa sucks /pos

[thedreadvampy]

Scuse me doing a vent

The situation is thus:

My partner's partner has recently ended a very messy and toxic relationship. both they and their ex were hot messes in the most unhelpfully complementary way and they sent each other into an increasingly toxic spiral - the ex was clingy, paranoid and overbearing and the partner's partner was frequently cold, unkind, belittling and downright nasty to and about them. they broke up and got back together over and over again even though it was incredibly clear that they were making each other miserable.

there was some moderate messiness around the breakup. before the breakup I had sat down with the ex (who I don't know outside this) and encouraged them to end the relationship and let it go instead of continually pressuring their partner to keep taking them back when it was making them both so unhappy. I was real mad about it too bc honestly while I totally understood the partner's reactions bc I too have very much dealt with the kind of emotional black hole of person-in-perpetual-crisis that the ex is, I thought they were being consistently really shitty to the ex and I told the ex that. the next day the ex broke up with the partner and there was a whole big 3 day drama I got sucked into about the partner trying to delete the ex from my life, which I was like OK MAN THAT'S NOT YOUR DECISION. we've since worked it out - emotions were high and I was triggered as fuck and all told it was a mess. but they did break up permanently. which is good.

fast forward a couple of months to last week. my partner and their partner have been organising an antitransphobia movement space for the last few months. the ex feels that they're being unfairly excluded from participating in that movement space.

the ex started messaging me last week asking if I wanted to get a coffee and catch up. the same day, I hear from my partner and from my best friend (who is very close to my partner and their partner) that they've been constantly talking about the breakup in the organising discord server, that it's escalating to accusations of abuse and maybe to demands that the partner be removed from the space, and that other people have started weighing in. both my friend and my partner are a wreck, particularly my friend cause this is like the 3rd time an organising group they've been in has come catastrophically apart at the seams when interpersonal drama ends up exploding into a bunch of triggering public litigation. my partner is trying to calm the situation down and act as a point of contact between the ex and their partner, but they were also already really annoyed with the ex for largely unrelated reasons AND they're worried about their partner spiraling out so they're struggling hard.

I'm worried about my friend and my partner, but I'm also not fucking in this conversation - I'm not on the discord, I don't think me weighing in would help anyone, and tbh my opinion on the original situation is: as far as I can tell neither of them were abusive in the sense of an unbalanced power situation; they were both pretty vile to each other throughout the relationship; it was a Bad Idea relationship that made both of them their worst selves; from out here it seems pretty clear that the best thing either of them could do for themselves is stay the fuck out of each other's way as much as possible, and I know that's easier said than done but the ex seems very actively opposed to even TRYING to not be in constant contact with the partner and that's a great way to erode any sympathy I have here, frankly.

anyway as I say I was quite happy to Not Be Involved

uhhhhh so the ex messaged me today to bitch about how my partner is being So Rude To Them in all this? we haven't like. spoken. other than them asking me if I wanted to catch up.

I blew up a bit tbh I was like hey man. I'm not fucking involved and I don't want to be but wild that you would open with complaining about my partner as if I'm likely to agree? also maybe idk consider that emotions are running high and given that you rightly expect that people will give you some grace for being Brain Problems and upset, maybe grant the same grace to other people?

they've just messaged me back actually post cancelled I'm not reading that goodnight

anyway I'm having a whole Second Hand Drama Time this week and I'm not going to let myself get dragged all the way back into it bc the last blowup when they broke up had me fucked up for like 2 weeks, it's very Ungood for me from a trauma perspective to get pulled into this specific flavour of drama

but also like. this is my confessional bit cause I know it's not a worthy thought. man I have sucked it up and played nice and removed myself from MULTIPLE spaces I wanted to be in to avoid starting shit with people who have behaved much more directly violently to me than the partner appears to have with the ex (mostly their crime, and as I say I fully agree that they were out of line, is being a bit of a dick to the ex, giving them the cold shoulder, and sometimes abruptly asking them to go home). and it's the same feeling I get whenever other people's interpersonal drama becomes this massive all-encompassing Thing I'm just like jesus fuck pull it together. suck it up and get out of the way of people who you know you can't be around. because at this point it just feels like you want to hurt them and don't mind hurting yourself in the process and I just do not have patience for that, especially when doing that is also throwing a massive spanner in the works of both a very urgent political organising space and a bunch of other people's fucking lives.

like I very much believe that we should take accusations of abuse seriously but I would say if I personally felt unsafe around someone what I wouldn't do is try to elbow my way into a group they just started and complain about not being let in. I would probably. go find a different organising space that wasn't run by someone I didn't want to be around. if I felt they were a danger to others I might talk to people in that group privately but like. why are you getting mad that you can't go to places the person you're beefing with is in? why are you mad that they won't answer your messages? why are you waiting for them to validate you? fucking hell man cut yourself loose.

asking this on anon bc I’ve been up since 3am and couldn’t go back to sleep bc the moon is too bright and stupid but anyways I need to ask given your more recent posts and also the current situation going on

are you like

an active ccdream fan?

like from your other posts I’ve gathered that you are a fan of cdream

but

like do. Do you ACTUALLY condone him saying the r slur? Under any circumstances not just yk like in regards to tommyinnit fans; yes that’s bad but also like in general that’s one of the most abelist worst slurs you can say??? Especially bc like. Even if HE can “reclaim” it not everyone does??? And at that point it’s just calling an entire group of people a horrible slur??

Ig what I’m trying to say is;

are you. On his side???

and why???

sorry if this comes off as rude again I’ve had a horrible nights sleep and am confused delete this ask if you want

Jesus god okay the drama has caught up with me xD

I mean in general yeah id say i'm a ccdream fan and it colors a lot of the ways I react to what he does. But it's also been a while since there was the whole dsmp thing and since he's posted videos so I don't think I have as strong of an interest in what the guy does as I used to. But I do like him.

So my first instinct when seeing him do that is like. Okay he's probably fine. But I've thought about it ive slept on it and even if he maybe doesn't mean the r-slur with all the implications people usually do (due to him being neurodivergent) thats still a vile fucking word and I don't think he should have been using it like that, actually. I like him but I've been firmly against the use of that word for everyone else so it would just be hypocritical to let him do it.

So. Yeah. I think it sucked for him to use that slur regarding tommyinnit fans regardless of other factors.

Other factors being, and there i honestly havent been keeping up with it too much, but from what I've gathered from the dash the way he has been treated by the ex-members of dsmp and tommy. On this aspect I do believe he was in the right cause of like. The evidence? It seems to me he was trying to communicate with them but also I havent watched his stream so I should probably do that make up my own opinion instead of relying on the ccdream fans on my dash lol.

And I also need to do some thinking about, yknow, the implications. Like him using the r slur in this context fucking sucked, should I stop watching his videos? I don't know and I feel like I need to wait a few days for the emotions to calm down. But in the mean time all the memes about the ex dsmp members' behavior specifically are pretty funny to me so thats why I reblogged them. And yeah they support dream, but dream being in the wrong about using that word doesn't mean he isn't in the right about other stuff.

But in general id say I'm pretty distant from all of it. Cause I haven't heard of him in a while, and I haven't been keeping up with the drama enough to form myself a strong actual opinion. So maybe I'm wrong about him being in the right concerning his interpersonal drama idk. If I am then I'll be real sorry for holding a wrong opinion for a couple of days genuinely

TL;DR: I don't like him saying the r-slur and I think it wasn't alright at all

Anyways. By the way are you someone I know or that Ive talked to or follow? If so id like it if you could make yourself known, you know so I can really explain myself to you if youve got questions or anything. That would suck to lose a friend over some stupid drama and me not thinking about the implications™ before I reblog stuff. Because I don't really pick "sides" sometimes people are wrong about some stuff and right about other stuff. But it seems to me like your biggest problem was with me condonning the use of the r-slur, because it's a horrible word and you have strong opinions about it being neurodivergent, and we're on the same boat about this. I think it sucks, like, really sucks.

Anyways, wishing you a good nights of finally fucking sleep anon, kisses!!

[review-anon]

I know little red is still around, maybe you guys could find and ask her? I am sure that red hooded mercenary would help out, or at least try. - Abno anon

That's all well and good but we don't even know where she even is!

Wait is that a woman in a red cloak and hood?

HHEEYYYYYY WOMAN IN RED CLOAK OVER HERE!

*The woman clearly heard them and came over*

Little Red Riding Hooded Mercenary: What's with all the screaming over here?

Hey you can kill shit right? Well there's something we really need fucking dead right now.

Little Red Riding Hooded Mercenary: As long as you pay me good, I will kill this thing you request, what is it?

Well Sonia and Fuyuhiko you guys are wealthy so you can bill the cost, right?

Indeed, there is a vile monster born from a foul liquid in that room and its harming two people now, its immune to most normal weapons that's why we cannot go in there...can you kill it?

Little Red Riding Hooded Mercenary: Oh so its one of THOSE creatures isn't it? Annoying bastards...but I will be sure to put them to rest.

*Little Red Riding Hooded Mercenary swings the door wide open and with a yell of "Eat lead bitches" fires her machine gun with reckless abandon into the room*

ARGGGHHH!!! Who's shooting like a madman in here?

I-I don't have nine lives here!

*The more slowly grow inhuman fake David looks down to see his body is ridden with bullet holes* Well that was just rude. *The holes immediately close up*

Oh lookie here its one of those freaks running around, and who are you supposed to be? Some edgy Little Red Riding Hood?

Little Red Riding Hooded Mercenary: You have a healing factor...like HE does...

Ooooo are you referring to your furry friend; the Big Bad Wolf?

Little Red Riding Hooded Mercenary: *Her one eye starts to glow yellow* What did you just say?

You know...I always found it silly humans feared wolves so much, sure a pack is dangerous but the one in the fairytale is a lone wolf, which doesn't exist in nature.

A wolf that cannot work with others is worthless...and no wonder they die so easily...no if you want to strike fear into humans...you need to take on another apex predator, one that doesn't fear anything...one that can hold a grudge and chases you to the end of the earth....

What I am trying to say is you should fear the TRUE king of the Jungle...the Tiger...

*The Fake David starts to bubble and melt as the humanoid body starts to morph into something...inhuman...more animalistic...and much much bigger...*

No.....

What's going on Nico? Do you know what is happening?

....That monster in the Medical Bay, it got that form from feeding off Kyoji's negative emotions...and yet we have another monster but nobody who's bad thoughts have been fed on...

Or at least I thought...but there is ONE other person who has been infected with Void Juice for a long time...enough for a form to be forged from it...

However...I cannot say this person is actually a human.

N-Nico? Are you saying that this other form came from-?

*Eventually the creature shaped into a more animal like shape, one that is very familar as it looks like a fully grown Sumerian Tiger, abet one with very pale fur however there is some very off features to it. Firstly the stripes on its body are actually dark purple inky tentacles that are fully capable to being used as ones, its mouth is impossibly wide and the ink is massively conocreated around the eyes which are now a piercing yellow colour, and lastly its much much larger then a normal tiger being more akin to the size of a bear*

Little Red Riding Hooded Mercenary: *Loads up the shotgun* Well aren't you going be nice to look at as a display when I cut off your head?

T-This...cannot be...is this monster based off Sawa's own inner demons and regrets?

...I'm afraid so.

*The Tiger Monster chuckled loudly and lunged at Little Red Riding Hooded Mercenary while she is firing bullets into it...and them not having any effect on her*

[fantastic-babies]

People are spreading misinformation and disinformation about seungri on still life mv , I only read one comment which kept insulting him writing such rude shitty things about him about how he ruined the other 4s legacy and what not and even saying I wish this comment reaches bigbang members , should we report these comments , I think it's better to report because these people aren't gonna listen anyways , but how long is this witch hunt going to continue against ri ? I am a new fan only came to know about his case in 2022 , that bbc documentary is gonna spread so much disinformation, how long, when are the tides gonna turn when is this witch hunt gonna stop against him ?

These people hiding behind their screens claim to be such savoirs of bb , that commentator has written such vile things about how they could go back in time so that they could fix things and the 4s could could continue to shine as stars , how can you erase him like that , they don't even know seungri , they don't even know how he was the glue of that group.

I don't even think you can become a bb fan if you don't like seungri so I barely understand those ot4s , he made the other members shine so much , I was just watching happy together yesterday and he kept on bringing what they were good at and he kept on bringing them at front to show their skills and without him the group would have never shined as much and while making the others shine he also shone so brighter , not everyone can do that. He would shine individually exceptionally anyways but not everyone tries to make the others shine as much as he did. I , as speaking for myself would have never become a fan of GD if it wasn't for seungri he made GD shine so brightly , that genuine happiness which I saw on GD during that motte tour in 2017 in which seungri was the special guest , that was just so infectious and adorable , when I first saw GD he looked so exceptionally talented but there was such a deep layer of sadness hidden inside , I thought does he even smile or what back then as a teenager. Seungri is like the warm sun who heals and the brightest star who makes others shine so much , and he gives us so much happiness . Maybe I am biased because I love him the most but I don't think bb would have ever shined as much if it wasn't for him but I am a fairly new fan who became a fan quite a few days ago only after seeing so many relentless attacks against him by that shitty bbc documentary , the fans since 5 years are doing so much , it's thanks to them only I learnt that seungri was innocent in 2022 but so many people still choose to remain ignorant.

I wish the other 4 members atleast said something to indirectly show that they support him , maybe just maybe things wouldn't have gotten so far , I know it's just wishful thinking but I wish they said atleast something because I just don't believe that they don't care about seungri especially GD, he adores and cares about him so much as far as I have seen from the videos and even those likes do confirm that he misses him , I don't know what are their reasons maybe seungri asked them not to , because seungri being so exceptionally loving would hardly want the others to get hate because of him but I still wish they just said something to show some atleast indirect support. Most probably they do support him privately a lot but I just wish things didn't get this much badder so I just want one indirect public statement to show support 🥹 , maybe just maybe these bullies would atleast think before writing such vile comments against him they would atleast know that the members do support seungri. But maybe it's just wishful thinking, even if the other members do that , would things change even a little bit ? The media in that country is so vile and the netizens full of hatred and the courts so unjust which fail the victims.

try your best to ignore ot4 i know it's bullshit and it makes no sense but that's what they have convinced themselves is right. only fight back on posts if you feel like it.

as for gd i agree he showed real happiness when sr showed up on his tour. sr lifted the spirits of everyone there and if gd hated him... why tf would he invite him? he even mentioned sr in rehearsals like cmon the man missed him so much. if any of these people bothered to watch/read interviews, full concerts and not just the same five clips over and over again they would see none of them hated ri. but they don't care.

whatever the members feel now should be an actual statement but i'm afraid we will probably not get that :/
