[saedii-gilwraeth-simp]

Okay I'm back in my feels about tydii, so here have my list of headcannons that will never die;

Saedii's hair is uncontrollable when it's not braided, bc 7 braids that don't look stringy = thicc af hair and from experience, that shit is a nightmare regardless of texture. Tyler has made the mistake of undoing Saedii's hair for her before bed and waking up with both of them tangled in it many times.

Tyler likes older music and by that I mean he is 100% a swiftie. Saedii once threatens to break up with him bc if she has to hear the chorus of Shake it Off through their mind bond one more time while he's a galaxy away she's going to punch someone in the face (possibly herself).

Saedii's a biter and vastly enjoys watching Tyler try to look all official in his AL uniform with his neck covered in bruises. Even better if she knows he has to teach younger cadets who are all short enough to see them very clearly.

Tyler gets her back by being as obviously and publicly in love with her as he can. He will call her every ridiculous pet name that he can think of and holds her hand as much as possible. Saedii claims to hate it but no one misses that she's always the slightest bit more purple in the ears when he does it.

Saedii has the ship log footage of Tyler killing the drakkon saved on her personal uni. No one is really sure why. Except for Tyler, who knows exactly why she has it (bc long distance is a bitch and it gets her going lol)

Tyler keeps a list on his uni of all of the things he likes about Saedii. He sends her one every day if they have to be long distance. Saedii's not one for super open affection, but in return she sends him photos of things that made her think of him. They're not all winners (she sent him a photo of the Great Ultrasaur after they'd had a particularly nasty fight) but the good ones make up for the bad ones (and the one she once sent him of her in her favourite bra more than made up for plenty of bad ones).

Saedii sings their kids Syldrathi lullabies, but from memory, which means Tyler is unsure if they're actually lullabies or softened versions of some weird Syldrathi death metal (some of them are but Saedii won't tell him that). Ty's not much better, he goes between rock ballads and whatever hyperpop song Scar stuck in his head last. And Taylor Swift, because he's on a mission to get his kids to annoy their mother with it.

Tyler has pretty regular nightmares after all the shit he's seen and doesn't like to talk about it with the others because he wants everyone to think he's fine. Saedii always knows and will call him in the early hours of his day so he can get everything out of his system before he has to appear all perfect.

Saedii's lieutenants are more scared of her after she gets a Be'shmai than they were before. None of them are really sure what about it makes her seem scarier, but she is. And don't even get them started on how terrifying she was when pregnant (Tyler's not sure what they're on about, according to him, she was basically a teddy bear while pregnant).

The pair of them are complete horndogs. It's actually so stupid how often they get caught doing stuff in places they shouldn't be. Scarlett is fully ready to bleach her eyeballs just so she never has to walk in on them again.

They adopt many many animals over the years they're together. A couple were pets for their kids (Tyler vetoed a drakkon for either of them, so Lae had a snake and Kal had a husky) but after the kids moved out, Saedii got a couple of drakkon and Tyler got a couple of dogs. They also have a cat, but neither are really sure how, the cat just appeared one day.

Saedii is the favourite grandmother of all of her grandkids and she's definitely not emotional and totally normal about it. To be fair, Kal and Shae's kids don't have another option, but that's cancelled out by the fact that Lae and Flora's kids have about 6 other grandmothers.

Tyler gets so hot-and-bothered when Saedii's being bossy. And he plays it off for the most part, but if she asks he'll happily admit to her that she could step on him and he wouldn't complain. Saedii also gets hot-and-bothered when Tyler's being bossy. But only when he's bossy to other people.

Anyway, add more if you want

OC Questionnaire

Thanks to @willtheweaver here, @theeccentricraven here, @paeliae-occasionally here, here, and here, @the-golden-comet here and here, and @somethingclevermahogony here!

Hey, this is somehow still not all the tags I have for this game but I'm cutting it off at eight again!

Previous questionnaires:

Round one masterpost

Round two: Tyler, Gwen, Liam, Noelle, Akash, Robbie, Sam, Ewan

Round two: Jazlyn, Carla, Wade, Rose, Maddie, Xitlali, Jedi, Lexi

Keep reading for Ash, Kelsey, Atsila, Teo, Carmen, Issa, Raissa, and Gabriel

#1- Ash

What would it take for you to admit you were wrong?

“That's a bit hard because I really don't like admitting it. It sucks. I hate being wrong about things. [Pause] I guess it has to be pretty bad. I am usually sure I'm right about a lot of things, but this drama happened last year with Shelby, and I did admit to Lexi that I was wrong about her. But that was only after this weird thing happened with her dad. I dunno. It freaked me out.”

Are you forgetful? If so, how do you remind yourself to do things?

“Admittedly a little. But I have Lexi to remind me to do a lot of things.”

Do you consider yourself a neat freak?

“Pfft, no. Hannah is. We share a room, so that sucks to be her.”

More Ash: questionnaire one, two truths and a lie, bingo, bag, origin, OC in three, interview

#2- Kelsey

Have you ever gone against your morals? What got you to or would get you to make that decision?

“Can't think of a lot of things. [Thinks] Well, occasionally I'll have a thought I don't like. Like once, when we first arrived in Alium, I got bored and frustrated, then I realized I was super worried about Maddie and my cousins, and felt bad for being bored. I dunno, actually. I like to stick by my morals. I guess I'd put my morals after my family, but I feel like having a family value is a moral. This is stupid; forget I said anything.”

Did you have any speech disorders as a child?

“I had a bit of a lisp, which definitely didn't make me a bigger target for bullying on top of my ticking. And struggling to read.”

Do you carry the popular opinion or unpopular opinion in your society? Or would you say you are on the fence or in the middle?

“I can't really think of an unpopular opinion. I guess I don't like Cheez-Its.”

Other Kelsey: OC in three, Picrew, bingo, questionnaire one

#3- Atsila

Would you do something illegal if you were getting paid a large sum of money? (You can choose the illegal thing)

“Pfft, yeah, who wouldn't? I can choose the illegal thing? Easy: my good friend Gwandoya is a speedster. He'll help me exceed the speed limit, and then we'll get a fine. And then I get a large sum of money, which makes the fine meaningless.”

What is your favourite non-human creature in the world and why? (Gods count)

“I must say dragons. My beloved Custos is a wonderful companion.”

If you were forced to kill one person you have met, who would it be. (Not yourself)

“Raissa Kamanzi, no doubt. I unfortunately have met her.”

Other Atsila: questionnaire one

#4- Teo

If you had a pet, what animal would it be?

“A dog or a fox, easily. Wade and I want to own foxes one day - they're so adorable!! And, like, K'Ehleyr is the best dog I have, like, ever met.”

How long would you like to live? Why?

“As long as I can! I want to, like, grow old together with Wade, and of course Parker. If we can all, like, die of old age, at, like, the same time, that would be just lovely. Sound minds at, like, 99. That sounds amazing.”

When will you be done?

“... Wait, that's, like, the whole question? Done with what? Life goals?? Let's go with that. I want to live a fulfilling life. Make, like, an impact on the world. Start a family. I think becoming, like, a YouTuber would be, like, awesome. And when I'm, like, done with making content, I'll be done. I guess. I hope I understood this question.”

Other Teo: questionnaire one, kiss picrew

#5- Carmen

Why did you leave home?

“Why did I agree to this interview? Ugh, I was a young adult, let's move on.”

What is your ideal job?

“I am perfectly happy where I am. [Pause. Pause. Pause.] Though I'll admit that I have wished I were apart of the Alii Power Database Council. I have a few words about organizing the subpowers alphabetically rather than rarity - since it makes it impossible to find anything unless you have the rarity memorized - but I suppose it is consistent. Working directly with the database council would allow me to gain greater funding to research the powers and certain potential subpowers.”

What will life look like when you complete your main goal?

“Wasn't this question asked to Mr. Attwood's Ceter boyfriend? Whatever, I just wish I was asked more unique questions. I hope to fulfill Atsila's wishes by completing her study on Alii from Ceteri and stopping the Refugae.”

Other Carmen: OC in three, OC in fifteen, Picrew, smash or pass, art, interview, questionnaire one

#6- Issa

Would you sacrifice yourself for another?

“Uh, yeah, duh. What kinda silly question is that? It would be wrong not to.”

How often do you daydream?

“Uh, quite often, actually. I find it so easy to be distracted.... Oops, sorry I fazed out for a second; thought of something CJ said earlier. Anyway, uh, my mind is a theater; constantly stuff is just happening up here.”

What is your favorite activity?

“Oh, I'm in musical theater! I love theater! I'm a champion at improv nights. I've also performed comedy skits there. I'm also in the art club and the debate club, and I'll attend book clubs! I also like baseball a bit, though I prefer to watch with CJ and Alex and Wendy. I'm not on a team, but maybe someday! Oh, yeah! Hanging out with my friends!”

Other Issa: questionnaire one

#7- Raissa

How many people have you killed?

“Ha-ha! I'm sorry, I had to laugh - what are you talking about? That's the dumbest way I've ever heard an interview start! How is that the first thing on your mind when you're sitting down with me? [Face hardens] Regardless, the answer to your question is irrelevant, and I find it incredibly offensive.”

Favorite type of drink?

“I am quite fond of green wine. Why do I have to answer such trivial questions?”

Do you smoke?

“... Occasionally.... This was a waste of time; I must get back to work.”

Other Raissa: questionnaire one

#8- Gabriel

What would you say is your greatest weakness?

“Tsk. I don't like to think of myself as a person with weaknesses. Cassidy says I'm too uptight. He's wrong, of course. Jaz sometimes says I'm stubborn. I think Traeger called me rude once. I suppose it is frustrating that I can't adapt to unfamiliar situations as much as I'd like.”

Who is someone in your life that you like but that you don't trust?

“Bold of you to assume I trust anyone.”

If you could magically learn any mundane skill right now (cooking, a particular dance, a language, singing, sewing, etc.), what would it be?

“Part of learning the skill is the learning itself. The process. I would rather not instantly learn a skill. However, if I must answer this question...I suppose it would be nice to just learn how to drive. I find it admittedly frustrating that knowing exactly how cars work and what to do to drive them is not appearing to help me.”

Other Gabriel: questionnaire one

Tagging @sleepywriter00 @finickyfelix @rehnwriter @dyrewrites @talesofsorrowandofruin

1) What is something you spend a lot of time worrying about? 2) Would you prefer to leave where your hometown and never come back or stay in your hometown and never be able to leave? 3) Do you own something to rarely/never use?

[soft-likethesunset]

1, 12, 97 + 99 for the asks!!

JESSSS HI BABESSS

Who was the last person you held hands with?

my sister, i think. we were at the fair and didn't want to get lost, so we linked pinkies. that or my friend, when i was at my other friends birthday, and we were singing riptide together and jumping up and down.

12. What are your 5 favorite songs right now?

ooooh, i have so many, but if i had to choose, i'd probably say maybe 'she' by tyler the creator and frank ocean, 'waterloo sunset' by the kinks, 'bewitched' by laufey, 'chiquitita' by abba anddddd maybe 'let her dance' by the bobby fuller four

97. Favourite actor?

acTOR in particular? probably andrew garfield. and i know that sounds basic and everyone says something like that, but i genuinely think that he believes in good things, and he's unafraid to stand up for them, and he's just a really good actor as well.

99. Have any pets?

i have a couple! i have my two dogs, one at my mums and one at my dads, and a couple fish and two chooks at mums as well. i love them all

LOVE YOUUUU THANKS FOR THE ASKS

[magici-if]

Hello!!! :D

I hope that you're doing awesome!!! I'm so excited for this IF, I can tell from the Vibes™️ that it's gonna rule :D (But please take your time working on it!! Gonna be excited whenever it comes out so take your time 🤗)

However, I was wondering, could I have a few crumbs of info on resident friend and ball of sunshine Harley? 🥺 I'm just so weak for soft pining and friends to lovers haha

Thanks for all you do!! ^^

hii poet ! thank u so so much for the kind words <33 this is the kind of thing that makes me wanna finish the demo as soon as possible heh

here are some Harley crumbs for u 🤲 🤲

As expected, she has friends everywhere. She is from the US, so you could mention any state and she'd prolly know someone living there.

She was always the teacher's favourite, not because she's particularly studious or anything, but 'cause she's just so nice. Like, she'll raise her hand in class when no one is answering just 'cause she feels bad; she'll talk to and befriend the new students so they feel welcomed, etc etc.

She and a few friends jam together a few times a month, but she would like to join a real band in the future.

She is allergic to both cats and dogs, but that has never stopped her from wanting one. (aw)

Harley has dyslexia.

Will she write songs about MC? It's not an if, but a when. ;)

She sings and plays guitar, bass and a little bit of piano (enough to use MIDI keyboards). She's written several songs she's produced 100% by herself, Tyler the Creator style.

Harley has a little brother who's 10 and he's her best friend and favourite person in the whole world.

She volunteers every week at a women's shelter.

She mostly uses her powers for music experimenting purposes, such as 'infusing' her music so that the listeners feel calmer, for example.

Martin always jokes that 'Harley' sounds a lot like 'härlig' (lovely/delightful/nice in swedish) which he thinks fits her so much. (agreed)

☆ honestly i just rely mostly on the vibe of the person but one thing i cant stand is people that are two faced i dont even ever talk to people that ik talk shit to abt their friends / bring them down. I just like hanging out with people that arent gonna be judgy abt the things i do or the way i am cause it honestly just ruins everything. so bare minimumn just like be chill and dont spend ur whole time talking shit abt other people.

☆ been listening to sm chappell roan but ill try to include some other stuff ive been listening to

☆ biggest insecurity is my personality and mannerisms

☆ i think maybe 2 weeks ago i went to my favourite sushi restaurant ever i think it was some type of holiday too but i honestly dont remeber if there was anything special going on

☆ fairly confident i could fight like a snake even a poisonous one, maybe a large dog if i have a good strategy

Some of these might be inaccurate, so I'm sorry about that!!! By the way, sorry for disappearing 🙏😿

*⁠♡✧*

She would go absolutely crazy for anything sanrio related. She doesn't have a favourite, she loves all the characters (unequally, but still)

She draws moles on her face. Either near her eyes, or like one Marilyn Monroe had.

She takes HOURS to get ready. She always has to go last into the bathroom, when it comes to getting ready for anything (with her family).

Always had to take care of her cousins, and / or siblings during family reunions. She acts like she hates it, but actually enjoys it a lot, despite it getting tiring at one point.

Because she takes care of her brother's often, she's quite good with kids.

She definitely owns A LOT of keychains. And definitely would sometimes attach one to her phone case.

She's a heart girl. Give her a piece of paper, and it's going to be filled with hearts. Her school notebook margins are also filled with hearts.

Has very poor concentration.

Dog person.

She probably likes Tyler the Creator

♡ I'M SO SORRY IF THEY'RE INACCURATE, BUT I STILL DIDN'T FINISH THE STORY !!!!!

[princesscatherinemiddleton]

So @duchessofostergotlands tagged me to do this and I love talking about myself and forcing people to hear it so...

What colour are your eyes?: Brown

What instantly tells you you if a person is good?: Bad start but I don't understand the question. Not to sound like Roald Dahl on main but when I fall out with people they look mean and cruel to me, even if they were the most beautiful person I knew when we were friends

Do you have a recurring dream?: Most of my dreams currently revolve around me not being able to get my class to stop talking during an observation

What is the most interesting class you have taken?: My English degree was essentially a "what random topics can we fit in here" degree so we had classes on such a wide range of topics from how to run multi-media PR campaigns to whether or not porn should have a plot and how to trick someone into giving you the quote you want for your article. We were given this really immersive behind-the-scenes tour of the architecture of Bath for my PGCE though, so that probably wins

How often do you find yourself daydreaming?: A lot. When I was younger, I used to sit on the sofa and daydream that I was playing rather than actually playing

Name/nickname: I've had a lot of nicknames through the years but I'm predominantly just Grace

Zodiac: Leo

Height: 5 foot

Nationality: British

Favourite colour: Burgundy

Favourite season: Summer

Favourite animals: Lions or foxes or hedgehogs

Favourite fictional characters: Amy Santiago. Mulder and Scully. Emily Prentiss from Criminal Minds. Bronwyn Rojas from OOUIL. Nikki Alexander from Silent Witness. Rose Tyler. Currently obsessed with Arthur from BBC's Merlin.

Tea, coffee or hot chocolate?: Hot chocolate. I don't drink tea or coffee

Average hours of sleep?: If I sleep naturally, probably about 7. For work, about 5

Cat or dog person?: Both (but also neither - I'm not really an animal person)

Number of blankets slept with: Currently two

Places ancestors are from: My grandma was born in the same house in England she lives in now, my grandad was born in Wales and refused to admit he was Welsh, my grandpa was from an Irish travelling family and my nan was Jewish. But predominantly the Republic of Ireland and Wales

Dream trip: I'm going to Amsterdam soon and that was a big one! Italy, Greece and Spain are top of the list

Blog established: My main blog was April 2010, I think. This one was June 2015

Random fact about yourself: I have an eidetic memory. Also, that I keep having to go back and remove full stops from this so I look cooler

Three ships: Mulder and Scully. 10 and Rose. Jake and Amy (and Hotch and Prentiss)

Last song: Hits Different by Taylor Swift

Last movie: In the cinema, Shazam 2. At home, Scream (I watched the Scream 5 and 6 double bill on the day Scream 6 came out and I need to talk about it)

Currently reading: I Want to Die but I Want to eat Tteokbokki by Baek Sehee

Currently watching: I'm in the middle of rewatching S6 of Elementary, S4 of Merlin, S1 of Downton Abbey, S7 of Criminal Minds and S7 of The X Files and I'm swapping between them every other day. The last new show I watched was Class of 07

Currently craving: Maltesers

I'm just going to tag @sophiebernadotte @harryandmeghansussex and anyone who wants to do it - just say I tagged you!

- uses he/any pronouns, he mostly doesn’t give a fuck. also doesn’t care if you stick to he/him because he likes it. he also tries out mirror pronouns every once in a while and flipflops between any

- unlabelled energy. also doesn’t care abt that type of stuff, but he’s asexual and it takes him a while to grow feelings. he’s afraid of letting people close to him but it really doesn’t matter to him, not that much. he’s pretty apathetic about it

- generally smells like shittily applied cedarwood cologne. it’s one of those cheap drugstore brands and sometimes he forgets to apply it in the morning, and he doesn’t spray it very well. also smells like grass sometimes

- his favourite subject is psychology/maths/anything logic based (he likes those puzzles). growing up with his bitchass karen mom who probably twisted all the words he said, he doesn’t like cryptic or vague language or poetry (english class) because it reminds him of her. in math, there’s only one answer. in english, there’s hundreds. also the words swim on the paper and he finds it hard to focus

- he has his ears pierced. he begged his parents to take him to an ear piercing studio they just ended up taking him to claire’s but he was still so happy about it

- he BEGGED for a dog or a pet when he was very little but eventually stopped at some point. he asked for stuffed animals and never got any because “it would be too hard to keep track of when we’re moving and you would lose them and get sad” and he’s still very upset about it. used to hug like three pillows when he slept

- he was told they were settling down in georgia and now his current room has millions of stuffed animals i will not hear any arguments about this

- he’s a kicker in his sleep (when he gets any). he kicks plushies off his bed like all the time, he’s not apologetic though he’s just like “oh shit”

- worst and best guy to have a sleepover with. super clingy

- he knows very few actual life skills other than operating a microwave for frozen meals because he largely grew up alone without his parental figures in his life. ashlyn and tyler eventually teach him how to cook

- his growth is stunted bc of that period in his life and he’s short like ashlyn

- he is a HORRIBLE gossip addict. they’ll be sitting at the lunch table eating in silence and he drops “did you hear that samantha’s parents are divorced and madison dropped her bc samantha’s mom doesn’t drive them to the mall anymore” like HUH WHERE DID YOU HEAR THIS?

- he gets school lunch and very rarely (if ever) brings lunch from home. sometimes ben makes him lunches

- plays with his food (this is canon) but he makes storylines out of whatever he does its like his personal roman empire

- big fan of extreme foods (spicy, sour, etc) ((he grew up eating plain ramen)) and loves weird food combinations. everyone always makes weird faces at him when theyre at the mall and he orders weird shit

- he doesn’t know proper meal etiquette until someone has to tell him, his parents didn’t teach him anything (I HATE THEM)

- he’s a really bad cook like ben because he always ends up getting distracted, and somehow manages to skip over steps in the recipes.

- he probably likes cooking shows though and is like “yeah i could do that” (he can’t do that)

- the first time someone (tyler) made aiden a homecooked meal he started cry laughing (it was mostly crying) (nobody talks about it)

- the few times his mom has made him meals whenever she’s home they’re really bad. they don’t taste anything like home, but he didn’t know what home tasted like so he just cried. his mom thought it was because of how good it was (it wasn’t) and he just cried harder

- he dislikes bitter flavours, especially like, orange juice that you make from scratch but you don’t put any sugar in it (it’s because his mom once tried to make homemade orange juice/lemonade to feel more like a “real mom” and it was horrible

- he’ll still eat bitter food though he just wouldn’t like it that much

- likes crunchy food or food that pops in your mouth (poprocks) bc he thinks its cool

- probably needs glasses from how long he’s spent staring at screens (his backstory)

- the one thing his parents consistently did as a kid was take him to his doctors appointments so he has stellar teeth

- he’s fit and fairly athletic (jumping off walls and all) but he doesn’t play sports because he just. isn’t interested in any of it. he tries everything but nothing really sticks that much

- he eats his greens but probably wouldn’t care much for the healthy vegan lifestyle, not that much of a picky eater (this part is canon)

- his favourite holiday is halloween because 1. candy (which he didn’t get much as a kid unless he specifically asked for it or ben brought it over) and 2. he loves dressing up it’s so fun to him

- understimulation is the BANE of his existence he genuinely wants to tear out his own hair every time he gets like that. gets really irritated

- he disassociates a lot, generally experiences a lot of derealization. he doesn’t feel like he’s in his own body sometimes

- insomniac

- chases thrills so that he can “feel” something. doesn’t care if it hurts him or not, because at least then he’ll remember he’s a real person and that his life matters

- really bad at telling when people are lying/are irritated with him. he just keeps pushing until they explode

- good with secrets (his own) but isn’t good at deflecting if asked about someone else’s. he’s just like “ummm. would u look over there. a bird!”

- runs really fast, he wakes up early in the morning to take a walk around the neighborhood. he sometimes encounters tyler if he happens to go into his city (which is often, because he doesn’t like being in his house)

- his house is always really cold, which is why he tends to run really warm (his body is compensating). he knows how to turn the ac off, but it always ends up turning back on in the middle of the night

- he grew up learning The Gifted Child instrument; the piano. he dislikes classical music (he says it’s boring but it’s because of this). he also almost got forced to learn the violin but he once practiced so hard his fingers started bleeding which is how he got out of it

- likes verbal validation bc his parents never told him they were proud of him

taylor

- she/they cis demigirl, gets a bit upset at being misgendered though (people think she’s the transfem twin because tyler passes really well)

- bisexual fem pref

- decorates her locker for almost every occasion. halloween, christmas, easter, birthdays. also decorates other people’s lockers for their birthdays before school starts with sticky notes

- has tons of stuff in her locker (except food because tyler won’t let her) just in case anyone needs anything but she’s not very organized so she doesn’t know where anything is

- because of this she’s one of those people that barely makes it to the door before the bell rings but she’s trying to fix that habit

- enjoys crime documentaries/true crime, horror stuff. used to make tyler watch with her but his anxiety gets really bad and he started getting paranoid

- adores christmas bc it’s a family holiday she makes tyler and her mom homemade gifts every year

- loves dogs with every bone in her body she asks santa for one every year but alas. tyler always has to write “a letter from santa” back saying they ran out of dogs at the north pole

- uses emoticons like “:D :] :3” all the time when she types, downloaded a bunch of sticker packs too. especially cat ones

- had her future all planned out as a kid and told her dad she’d be a mechanical engineer and build trains and rockets to bring him places when he started getting really sick and couldn’t move anymore

- her hair is actually kind of dry (compared to aiden’s or ashlyn’s) because they couldn’t afford great shampoo or anything

- has an ehh skincare routine and doesn’t care much for her fashion sense, just wears whatever’s comfortable

- knows a lot of random facts as conversation starters, she’s surprisingly good at small talk ( + comforting people)

- gossips with aiden aallll the time bc she’s super sociable and knows lots of people who tell her secrets. she doesn’t tell any of the important ones but just little drama things

- her and aiden are bffs

- really likes kids because they’re funny, she has a big imagination like them so it’s easy for her to play with them

- she’s a swiftie and whenever someone asks her if she likes taylor swift as a joke bc of her name she says “i like all music!” (she loves tswift)

- really likes sweets over most types of food, she’s healing her inner child guys

- has always ALWAYS wanted to go to a circus/carnival/festival when she was younger, but they couldn’t afford tickets. she still has that dream but she obviously has bigger priorities now…

tyler

- transmale he/him

- doesn’t care that much about dating, he actually doesn’t think about it that much until he meets The Gang. he always too busy taking care of his family to bother with relationships

- dislikes heavy meals, eats in small portions. it’s a habit

- used to be a picky eater but isn’t anymore, when he was younger they struggled to put food on the table so

- he’s like tigris from ballad of songbirds and snakes; when he prepared food for the family he’d eat bits and pieces of it while cooking. eats raw meat sometimes but once got sick from it so never again because he doesn’t want people taking care of him

- he HATES being sick. HATES HATES HATES it, hates having to burden people

- stress cooks because he likes having things to do with his hands. he also runs laps/paces around when he’s stressed

- runs his hands through his hair so it’s always messy

- he doesn’t bother combing his hair unless it’s for a special occasion like the first day of school, he just doesn’t care that much

- gets up early like aiden to keep up his physical fitness, doesn’t stray far though because his mom wakes up around the same time he does

- is VERY punctual. will be furious if someone makes plans and then is late. always arrives somewhere like, fifteen minutes early. he’s trying to break taylor’s habit of being late

- occasionally scolds taylor about how messy her locker is

- is extremely (and kind of scarily) meticulous. clean backpack, clean locker, clean room. it’s a habit

- book smart and figures things out pretty easily. he has an internal computer inside his head i swear. latches onto concepts very quickly

- likes math because he’s good at memorizing concepts but biology is his worst enemy, he gets queasy very easily

- motion sickness

- doesn’t actually have a set plan for the future, other than “help his family.” will probably do something related to sports (sports scholarship) or will do something math/analytical related

- spams people when they don’t respond to him but quits eventually (semicanon)

- has some sort of separation anxiety i swear he does

- keeps every single promise he makes because he hates broken promises (his dad told him he’d be fine and out of the hospital soon), he also doesn’t make a lot of promises

- dislikes nicknames like “champ” and “buddy”

- he’s ambidextrous

- he always seems to be like, tense? can’t relax at all. it might be because of his anxiety (HE HAS ANXIETY)

- only ever relaxes if he’s at home

- rarely watches television, he says it’s a waste of time (he always gets distracted and gets up and goes to do something else) he can leave it in the background though

- i think he has chronic pain, i don’t know where but i just think he does. everything just aches sometimes and he’s so young fuck life

- he’s okay with kids like his sister, not as good as her but he’ll take care of them (habit x37362828) he’d probably say everything really monotone though “there’s santa claus, wow.”

- he and taylor both have a pretty strong southern accent from living in middle of nowhere georgia (i think someone made an art post on this a while back :D)

- is really bad at video games because he gets frustrated easily

- he grinds his teeth when he sleeps and has jaw pain what a loser

note : PLS TELL ME Y'ALL SEE THE INFLUENCE THEY HAVE ON EACH OTHERRRR!!! im so obsessed with them :((((

KENMA KOZUME:

!!? mac demarco FIEND. he's listened to the entire nine hours of one wayne G, that's how serious he is. when the rumour that mac was gonna retire got big, he literally fell to his knees with his hands in his hair. he was so mad when he got big on tiktok oh my god i just know this mf is always complaining about the "tiktokification" of mac demarco like omg its never that serious.

his favourite songs by mac demarco are:

★ 20200819 she gets the gold star on the one wayne G album.

★ moonlight on the river on the this old dog album.

★ still together on the 2 album.

!!? after careful consideration, i have decided he is a consistent steve lacy enjoyer. he found him from 911 / mr. lonely by tyler, the creator and he's been a loyal fan ever since. let me tell you he was HERE for his 2021 era where he was smashing phones and testing the crowd bc why are you spending hundreds on a concert and you don't even know the lyrics to the artist's most popular song? gtfoooo 😭🫵🏽

his favourite songs by steve lacy are:

★ give you the world on the gemini rights album.

★ only if on the apollo XXI album.

★ infrunami on the the lo-fis album.

⌗ HONOURABLE SONG MENTIONS: thinkin bout you by frank ocean. about you by the 1975. better in the dark by tv girl. charcoal baby by blood orange. sdp interlude by travis scott.

KUROO TETSURO:

!!? he really likes mainstream rap so yeah, he's a drake listener... he's not too weird about it at least, he's just into music that hypes him up that's all!!! thinks drake won the beef solely based on vibes and intuition because he did Not keep up with it. let me tell you, he was shocked when kenma explained the beef in full detail with a powerpoint and a clicker 😭 it was a whole intervention.

his favourite songs by drake are:

★ summers over interlude on the views album.

★ 8am in charlotte on the for all the dogs album.

★ portland on the more life album.

!!? on that mainstream rap note, he is also a travis scott frequenter. of course him and bokuto made kenma and akaashi do the sicko mode trend with them in 2018 WHO DO YOU THINK THEY ARE?! he had a phase that quickly died out after a couple of months but it came back when SOS by SZA came out and oikawa played him open arms ft travis.

his favourite songs by travis scott are:

★ I KNOW ? on the UTOPIA album.

★ 3500 (ft. future & 2chainz) on the rodeo album.

⌗ HONOURABLE SONG MENTIONS: REEL IT IN by aminé. backseat freestyle by kendrick lamar. riot by childish gambino. love sosa by chief keef. didn't cha know by erykah badu.

AKAASHI KEIJI:

★ other side of the game on the baduizm album.

★ green eyes on the mama's gun album.

★ gone baby, don't be so long on the new amerykah part two: return of the ankh album.

!!? he doesn't listen to a lot of newer songs unless his friends make him, but one artist bokuto put him on is laufey. her fun songs aren't super overstimulating for him like most of the songs bokuto's has played for him and just like erykah, she unfortunately has the perfect discography for overthinking.... he likes to think he's branching out but most of what he listens to is just variations or heavy elements of jazz 😭

his favourite songs by laufey are:

★ i wish you love - live at the symphony on the a night at the symphony album.

★ trouble on the bewitched: the goddess edition album.

★ falling behind on the everything i know about love album.

BOKUTO KOUTARO:

!!? it would truly be a crime to deny that he is a hardcore waka flocka flame enthusiast. his alarm wakes him up with no hands at 6am every morning and he goes to sleep to wild boy. he even tried to negotiate with a tech guy at one of his big games so round of applause could play when he entered the court.

his favourite songs by waka flocka flame are:

★ rooster in my rari on the triple f life: friends, fans & family album.

★ no hands (ft. roscoe dash & wale) (single).

★ o let's do it (ft. cap) on the flockaveli album.

!!? the pop girlie equivalent to waka flocka flame... lady gaga. he just likes a lot going on in his music and that is Not his fault. he said that once and he was told to get into metal and he respected it... it just wasn't him. he immediately went back to his roots which were speechless and starstruck!! him and oikawa bond over their love for loud dance pop music for sure.

his favourite songs by lady gaga are:

★ justdance on the the fame monster album.

★ applause on the ARTPOP album.

★ telephone (ft beyonce) on the the fame monster (deluxe version) album.

⌗ HONOURABLE SONG MENTIONS: HOT TO GO! by chappell roan. shake back by kodak black. from the start by laufey. fantasy by mariah carey. big poppa by the notorious B.I.G..

hiiii bestie !!! i saw you had a tonne of fics on ao3 and wanted to know if you had any recs for new fans og afl??? any works of your or any other peeps to check out?? thxxxx

hi bestie!!! (I don't know this person)

This is a hard question because there's so much out there - probably not much on AO3 (unless you like Alex Fasolo and then you're in luck) and then Wattpad is just an insane mix of literally everything, mostly footballer x fake sister fics (which I, myself, am guilty of, and I'm sorry)

oh, also I only really read Saving Lotte Sullivan on Wattpad which I reckon is really good but I could be bias.

Maybe I'll just make a list of AO3 fics for each club (and yes, for the dogs, it'll be anything written by AFL whores about bailey smith) and a lot of this is just tooting my horn, I am sorry.

Adelaide

Tyler Brown adjusting to adelaide life

Brisbane

Take me home country roads part 1 and part 2 (obviously)

Carlton

Okay so the best year Carlton had was in 2019 so anything from 2019

Collingwood

literally anything with Trent Bianco and Jack Ginnivan (Collingwood power couple) or Darcy Moore x Charlie James Dean

Essendon

idk if there's much Essendon fics out there so this one? i mean who likes essendon anyway? ew.

Fremantle

I can't remember what year but maybe it was 2021 when 2 guys 1 cup read out Cunfe (Cunnington x Fyfe) fanfiction on the podcast so yeah find those episodes. (The fics were all family friendly and G-rated, don't worry, you can listen to them with kids in the car)

Geelong

Has to be this one

GWS

hard to pick my favourite jesse hogan one

Gold coast

what about Matt Rowell getting mentally scarred before a game. I'm so sorry.

Hawks

either Tom Phillips starting a podcast, or Tom discussing the four P's

Melbourne

probably anything with Ed Langdon or pie boy

Norf

see Freo

Port Adelaide

Bailey Smith ripping through the entire Port Adelaide team OR those lousy five chapters I tried to write about Jack Watts

Tigs

the resurrection of Matthew Richardson (hurts a little to remember writing this after what they did to me last week)

Saints

can I say my multi chapter newsreader fic even though Rob plays for Melbourne in it and not his beloved saints. Or when Ben sits down with his accountant Callum Wilkie

Swans

probably best to go to AFL whores for this one

Weagles

who even writes Weagle fics

Dogs

anything from AFL Whores regarding Bailey Smith

[partywithponies]

I was a certified melancholy-enjoyer as a child, okay. I loved the end theme of Bagpuss because it kind of made me want to cry every time. I read Goodbye Mog over and over when I was small because it made me feel heavy in my chest and I wanted to feel it more.

I watched all the Redwall TV series at the tender age of 5 and absolutely loved it.

All my favourite kid's movies growing up were the ones with sad or bittersweet endings. Loved Fox and the Hound. Loved the 1970s Charlotte's Web film. Loved My Girl. Watched Asterix Conquers America over and over until the tape wore out JUST to hear the Bonnie Tyler song Say Goodbye. (Still one of the best songs ever recorded in case you were wondering.) I was completely and utterly obsessed with All Dogs Go To Heaven for several years to the extent I based an entire half term-long school art project on the film because I was told to base it on something important and personal to me and all I could think of was Dead Doggo Movie, and I absolutely despised All Dogs Go To Heaven 2 on a fundamental level for the sole and solitary reason that it undid the bittersweet ending of the first film and gave it a neat happy ending.

I used to sit for hours listening to sad and melancholic songs on my walkman and later my mp3 player (I was born in 1996, I had both in my childhood, okay) just to cry, for fun.

I remember having to do a presentation on my favourite book at school when I was 11, and my reason why it was my favourite was basically just "my favourite character dies and it makes me cry and I like that about it". At roughly the same age I got really into Watership Down, both the book and the movie, and I hated the TV series so much just for being too happy by my standards.

When I got old enough to use youtube unsupervised I used to just watch endless "saddest movie moments" complitations.

And I'm not saying all this to sound ~ different and special ~, I'm saying it because I know it's not even a little bit unusual. It's a perfectly normal way for a child (or an adult) with a lot of difficult feelings to deal with the catharsis of those difficult feelings in a safe and controlled way, and if I'd had any of that media taken away from me because it made me upset, I'd have got a whole lot worse.

And I'm saying it because there still wasn't nearly enough age-appropriate media that dealt with the themes and feelings I was looking for at all the different stages of childhood, and if you don’t provide a child with enough age-appropriate media that tackles dark themes, they might do something stupid like be 12 years old and become troublingly obsessed with TV shows about dead police officers and criminal fugitives in space.

Anyway, TL;DR:

The urge to make children's media as safe and happy and non-upsetting as possible is so misguided. Sure, that's what some young children prefer, but if you leave the children who like to be a bit scared and the children who are fascinated by death and/or violence and the children who enjoy melancholy with no safe way to explore those themes, they'll only end up seeking out media they're way too young for while no-one's supervising.
