#platonically. but literally each other's loml

[hawkfuller]

we've got chemistry, we either gonna kiss each other or headbutt each other, and you never know what. phil is disgustingly talented, he can sing, he can dance, he can do frontflips, he can act, he can do comedy, he can do sound effects, he can play football very well... there's really nothing he can't do, other than believe in himself enough. (x)

[thiefbird]

Okay I'm sorry for bothering you out of the blue but literally no one else I know would care-- bc of you I just started listening to the audiobook of m&c and. Why is the language so sensual. This is an old man book????? I've read smut that's more restrained.

Also love that Aubrey's defining feature is LORGE lmao

oooooooh which narrator, Tull, Vance, someone else? never apologise for bothering me about the Aubreyad - and let me know if you wanna join a server!

POB's favourite author is Jane Austen and it showwwwwwwwws I love him so much. He masquerades as an Old Man Book and throws in multiple sympathetic, textually queer characters (and textual queer-vibes-giving Stephen Maturin on top of that!) and the most tenderly loving prose I've ever read.

I fully maintain that Patrick O'Brian is one of the best wordsmiths of the 20th century, and especially so when it comes to describing love in any and all forms. Whether you read their relationship as platonic or romantic or alterous, the fact that Jack and Stephen love each other is explicit and integral to every facet of the books (and later on, their love for their wives (and Stephen's fraternal love for Jack's wife) and children is the same). I don't think POB has his equal for perfectly writing love, and the expression of love.

also absolutely godbless POB for creating a beautiful hot fat blond man for me (and Stephen Maturin) to be obsessed with. Jack Aubrey loml i adore you

s.tormlight for the fandom meme 🩷 & stormlight! (for the fandom thing) // @dcviline + @weavinglight

The first character I first fell in love with: Jasnah. It was immediate, and I never recovered. Her poise, her wits, her Ace rep, her capacity for good as well as her ability to be that bitch. Will not lie, my bestie hyped her up and she has not disappointed me once.

The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: He was just one-armed comic relief. Now I muse the little bastard. I thought he might be somewhat cringe comedy and tbh as it was my first Sanderson outing I didn't know what to expect when I heard 'Mexican-coded comic relief' but tbh? He's my one hand arm man, my confidant, my best friend, my silly mink. Love The Lopen, no notes.

The character everyone else loves that I don’t: This is such a cop out but I can't think of any universally beloved characters I don't like? One of the gifts of the series to me is the nuanced and thoughtful characterization of each main player, making them feel more well-rounded than a lot of fantasy without any of them bleeding into each other/relying on authorial tropes. Even stuff I don't like about them, I understand or respect from the sense of 'this character is a tool of the story and is performing that function spectacularly.' The work is put in such that I don't really dislike any of the fandom favs like the Kh0lins, Bridge Crew, Sz*th, etc -- I just side-eye some of their choices.

The character I love that everyone else hates: Moash, and it's downright pathological how much this fandom has it out for him. I get he's a villain and makes some really selfish, awful, narrative-redefining decisions, but there's some takes out there that frankly make me wonder if people read the same book I did. To wit, there is discourse surrounding if this man kicked a literal infant. I, meanwhile, am damn near his public defender at this point. He has layers. He's so Cool Motive Still Murder coded.

The character I used to love but don’t any longer: Dalinar is really one of those characters where your feelings about him get more complicated on a reread. He's still wonderful in narrative and a favorite because no one else in the genre is doing it like him but... Holy shit dude. The way his flashbacks reframe everything. Where is the justice for my girl Evi --

The character I would totally smooch: OK SO FUNNY STORY ax the bestie that got me into the series called my dyke ass would be bewitched by Jasnah. She's so my type it hurts. But they forgot a core aspect of my being: I'd do anything for a MILF. I love Jasnah -- twenty years older and a little more plush, since it's established she's a younger version of her mother. The LOML. My queen. Navani. I get choked up remembering she wasn't getting the good good for 6 years --

The character I’d want to be like: The way I actually want a Dalinar quote tattooed on my body. The way I strive for that level of getting my shit together and turning it around. The way I want to be Evi and Navani's husband. Wait what no delete that footage --

The character I’d slap: Can I lovingly backhand my beloved Moash just to try and convince him he's in a cult and needs to get back on that whole 'destroy the system' wagon? Not even like a hard slap. Just something less taxing than killing one of his buddies to realize how far he's fallen.

A pairing that I love: Have you heard the news of our lord and savior Szopen -- Jokes aside, I am not immune to mad scientist war criminal crab milfs and their captive engineering genius morally complex human milf. Navaniel or bust. It's everything I have ever wanted in my life.

A pairing that I despise: SHALAD1N. Obscuring it so I don't post negativity in the proper ship tag but oh my God my genuine fear is that given the nature of Sandertropes Adolin is gonna be the deadpool for KoW, Shallan will be our grieving widow protag, and 15 years later she and Kaladin hook up. Don't get me wrong! I love their dynamic platonically! I'm not even opposed to Shakalodin! But they NEED that buffer, I can't stand the thought of them 1:1'ing this ship. There's too much between them, too much trauma overlap and high key inflicted on each other, for me to see the endgame appeal. I think it'd self destruct messily and leave them both worse. They need sunshine boy or the romance will tear itself apart.

oki doki, after a bunch of breaks but still an obsessed spree, I'm done binging the Shot in the Dark Masterpost!!!!

Ofc I have a million things to say but let me just tell you I was so hooked and mad abt the fact that there were so many prompts and stories that I never stumbled upon cos they were buried under all your other posts, and MAN, I am severely addicted. To Cliff especially he's the loml I would literally die for him.

Crazy in Love had a GRIP on me. The romance was amazing, the angst, AND UGH JON LOSING HIMSELF MADE ME LOSE MYSELF LIKE UGH READING THAT CAUSED ME SO MUCH PAIN AND TENSION AND I WAS LIKE YES SYLVIA YOU GOTTA TELL CLIFF and I was genuinely so scared for her at the same time, like once again, y'all do emotion, so, damn, well.

Lost and Found was also really really good and it gave me much better context about the world and backstory considering I haven't read the books yet, but if I had to introduce a friend to the universe it would probably be through this. It really highlighted the platonic relationship with Cliff and Sylv and the angst at the end is still fresh in my mind even though I read it like two weeks ago and a million other stuff?? And duh, Jon and Sylv being literally the most delicious romance I've ever read. MAN. THEY CARE ABOUT EACH OTHER SO MUCH THAT IT HURTTTTSSSS WHYYYY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME AJHBSJHBJVBHDV

Out of the prompts I think the ones that really stuck with me are probably any of the ones that had to do with the siren fairy- like man. Any time Sylv has to against one or BOTH of her boys just kills me. I cannot. I am addicted LOL

also Cliff constantly rejecting Sylvia when she wants to heal him is so like. I love how it's clearly something that happens a LOT and it just connects them better. Like. Cmon buddy. Ik. But let her heal you like come onnnnnn. but then at the same time im like SYLV IT'S FINE JUST LEAVE HIM BE. BUt no. SHe can't. and i'm so happy that she doesn't.

Pocket Nap! IS ALSO AN ADDICTION, I AM ADDICTED TO IT THE WAY I'M ADDICTED TO TEDDY BEAR WITH XANDER AND GRAYSON. Something about sleepy prompts just gets me, you know?

overall that was amazing and I love them more then I ever have before and yeah!! Ik i haven't rlly been active but TRUST me I still come to you and Mary's pages almost every single day and yes!!!!!! so so sorry this ask got way longer then I thought it would !!! love ya!!!

AWWWW omg this made me night!! I am so happy I put together that masterlist of Shot stories, since it made it easier for you to look through them all!

Sylv's relationship with the boys fuels my happiness so much! Jon and Sylv are SUCH a comfort couple, and the sibling vibes between Cliff and Sylv make my heart GLOW ✨ Her demand for pocket naps is so valid. And the healing argument literally kicks off in the rewrite of the first book--just finished editing a bit of that 😭

Gosh I would love to revisit the siren fairy idea at some point. I'm a sucker for making tinies terrified of giants they trust wholeheartedly LOL. Sylv having to use magic against Jon and Cliff is so heart-wrenching and I need moreee 😩

Thank you so much for this sweet feedback!!

People Of Significance In My Fame DR

Caladin Leighton

Hes literally one of my best friends yall. He's also an actor and musician like me, and he played Connie Springer in attack on titan. We haven't really known each other for long but when we met we just clicked fr. Probably because we were one of the only black kids on set along w another actress who is also in our little friend circle.

Kazuya Minamoto

We're cool with each other ig. We're almost best friends but he's a lil annoying but nothing I haven't dealt with. We met on the set of Jujutsu Kaisen, he plays Gojo, and yeah the rest is history.

Kenji Akiyama

THE LOML (platonically ofc. I think. Most likely.) He's so amazing yall we also met on the set of jjk he plays Geto and he's just so amazing and funny and nice and cool. Omg he's one of my besties too.

Ada Bradburry

The loml but less platonic fr but still platonic. We sing together in our girlgroup she's just so amazing and fun and she's GORGEUS like I'm jealous fr. Anyways she's probably one of the artists I've collabed with the most cause she's a singer as well!

More to come...

[prtfrmhrtbrn]

im ill and incapable of real genuine human thought so im just going to talk about one of my favourite drafts that im working on and its this

-regulus & evan fake dating, ft aromantic regulus, endgame rosewater qpp AND endgame rosekiller.

-yeah im hitting evan with the polyamory beam. ITS CALLED PROJECTING!!

anyway its one of my favourite things in my google docs. some fun facts about it:

•barty & evan BOTH already like each other. evan also knows barty likes him back but thinks hes too much of a coward to say anything and his first thought is “okay, i’ll fake date somebody about this”

•oh and also regulus is just like “i mean alright i guess”

•regulus tells barty immediately. hes like “honest to god get your shit together” and barty is like “literally why would you do this” and regulus is like “i thought it would be funny”:

•you guys are all ALWAYS forgetting that if sirius pretty much raised regulus HES GOING TO ACT LIKE A TWAT SOMETIMES i love regulus being an absolute menace

•qpr. thats all i need to say. as a member of a qpr it is one of my all time favourite relationships in my life and i think not enough people write them. i ALSO think not enough people write aro characters as capable of emotion!! 90% of the time (in my experience!!) theyre just aro because the author couldnt think of a pairing for them and they felt bad. so anyway i changed that for this fic. and also in like… 3 other fics in my drafts. i love being in a qpr im in a qpr hey did i mention im in a qpr this post goes out to my beloved partner even though they will never see it

•sirius. sirius. sirius. i dont know WHAT it is about the black brothers but every single time i write ANY fic with either of them in they end up talking to each other. i cant stop them. im just writing and they say “we want to reconcile” and i say “that wasnt one of my plot points…?” but its too late! theyre already talking!

•regulus being SUPREMELY confused when he realises he likes evan <3 with the focus on the fact that he can still like him without it being romantic!! he has no idea what a qpr is but he’ll get there

•regulus GOES TO SIRIUS FOR HELP!! and sirius is like “ok i will help you” and regulus is like “what why” and sirius is like “do you want help or not tbh”

•but also regulus is like “ok so i have a fake boyfriend” and sirius is like “you fucking what”:

•the segment with sirius features a LOT of complaints from regulus (that part is his pov! it changes throughout between barty, reg & evan though) about the red of the gryffindor dorms. he is so upset by them:

•barty immediately notices when regulus accidentally catches feelings. hes like “…you thought this would be funny but it went like normal fake dating didnt it” and regulus gives him a very sad looking nod and says “i wont stop you dating him i still dont know what it is” and barty is like “getting over evan is too much work and id know, if he wants us both he can bloody well just have us both”

•spoiler alert for the fact that he does <3

-anyway. not much of this is written but i just wanted to talk about it! my dear best friend and the platonic loml is anti reg/evan (she could never get me) so… tumblr has to hear about it instead!

-oh also my fake dating experience is based in a little too much truth about my life (i did it) (its how i got with my partner) so! you know. you can trust the authenticity?

-thats all. i needed to get this out of my SYSTEM but it might end up on ao3 <3 anyways if youre a rosewater-er my ao3 is SUCH a safe place for you. my marauders pseud is hellenistic & my main is apartfromheartburn (but dont go there because its all anime fics i wrote 3 years ago) so my marauders fics can as such be found under hellenistic (apartfromheartburn). id link them but also i have a headache that will kill me if i stare at my phone acreen any longer so! thats not happening. end of this post! bye bye <3

10 Characters I fell in love with in 2021

got tagged by @braceletofteeth to list my 10 favorite characters for 2021!! this year was the Year of Kdramas for me, i had such a fun time getting into them and i cant believe it took me so long to get into the genre!! what has my life been before this??

I'm so excited to do this thank u for tagging me!! (in no particular order, ranking them would require too much pain)

1. Seo Moonjo (Strangers From Hell)

What is there to say? Inventor of bad bitchery. Master of stares. Doctor of teeth. Owner of our hearts. Love him for his toxicity and his hair <3 Hope jongwoo texts you back soon!

2. So Mun (The Uncanny Counter)

I haven't finished Uncanny Counter yet but GOD he is everything. He loves his friends so much, he wears his emotions on his sleeve, he has such a strong sense of justice, i just love so much about him.

3. Wen Kexing (Word of Honor)

insp for basically all of my web weaving posts, this man made me understand the term poor little meow meow. His character development is one of my favorites that i've ever seen, and i genuinely envy his shamelessness. remember kids, even tough women cant resist clingy men!

4. Cho Sang-Gu (Move to Heaven)

made smoking cool again. He wins the prize for making me cry more than damn near anything else in my entire life! His backstory......... literally if i think about this too long im going to lose it. Lee Je Hoon your hand in marriage pls.

5. Cao Weining (Word of Honor)

idc if the term is out of fashion but he's truest embodiment of "cinnamon roll too good for this world, too pure." not that good at fighting but he respects women and u know his bills are paid. (Whoever is responsible for episode 34 i just want to talk. with my fists)

6. Pat Napat (Bad Buddy)

HELLO LOML the walking green flag himself!!!! Pat made me realize the type of person I want to be in my relationships (platonic or romantic) with other people. He is physically unable to resist showing affection to those he loves and its the most admirable trait ever. He is the blueprint.

7. Jesse Pinkman (Breaking Bad)

I watched brba before this last year but i rewatched it in 2021 and it made me fall in love with him again. he is also the definition of poor little meow meow. Someone give this man a break and a spa day PLEASE,

8. Kang Seokyoon (Strangers From Hell)

has anyone ever spit realness like "fuck mother fuck father fuck money" in the history of rap??? unlikely. the supportive friend everyone needs, deserved better. unfortunately looks very good covered in blood :/

9. Nadja of Antipaxos (What We Do in the Shadows)

I started WWDITS with my parents and it was such a fun show to watch with them. all of the characters are amazing, but Nadja is a legend in her own right. the owner of the 6 total braincells in that house. she is everything a girl can dream of being <3

10. Wang Xie (Word of Honor)

Scorpion king? no. king of my heart. can turn a look like his life depends on it. one glance will kill ur friends and family. has hot friends and the worst father figure on the planet, hes serving relatable content on the daily. I serve as president for both his protection squad and the zhao jing hate campaign (we meet on saturday evenings and braid each others hair. currently accepting applications!)

is it obvious word of honor has taken over my life?? not mad about it.

I loved doing this omg. I wanna tag @sofarraway, @forgive-and-take, @surajmukhis, @gr33kg0ds, @hotel-and-casino, and @saintmilky <3 (only if you want to of course!)

[xnchxntmxnt]

fboy face strokes my way into your inbox ayyyy

ok ok so sk8 for the fandom bc they need some love too

uh abt. me: any pronouns slight they/them preference but it switches so often 😅 greyaromantic + demiromantic with a slight preference to men.

ok i have trouble falling asleep or it's just out of my getting distracted and not realizing what time it is *coughs in stayed up till 5 am to watch the 2.3 livestream on a school night* im considered to be blunt and sarcastic with 80% of what i say is sarcasm and the other 20% is just the truth.

loud with close friends and on the internet and quiet with people i don't like or don't know

uh large groups of people staring me is sort of a fear of mine and i have claustrophobia

uh that's all <33

im literally platonically in love with you you give off such sweet and wholesome vibes ily /p

you've been matched with...

kaoru sakurayashiki!

no sleep buddies

no honestly he has insomnia and anxiety he cant sleep either so

you guys can stay up late watching youtube together because as much as he doesn't wanna admit it he likes spending the late night with you (he just despises the alarm clock in the morning)

he'd 100% watch the genshin streams w you don't you worry

he's a kaeya kisser ew /j

no but you both have your fictional boyfriends that you joke you'd leave each other for but the jokes only strengthen your bond anyway <3 its wholesome

he's a blunt person too!! tends to say what he's thinking around those he trusts (he's also a businessman so when it comes to that he's very good at lies of omission but not with you)

the only time you'll catch him lying is if 1) he got hurt at s and he's hiding it 2) he's planning a surprise for you

did I mention he's THE surprise date expert

he's so good at it

like—im one of those people who needs a plan so he'll give you a time for a date and what you should wear (fancy, casual, somewhere in the middle, etc) if you need it, but that's all the details you get. and if you don't need those details? all bets are off you're walking in blind

would NEVER bring you to S if you don't like crowds

the moment someone is talking to him his weird fangirls want to know everything about the person and he doesn't want to put you through that

however, once you start dating, he doesn't let anyone step over a (very clear) line when talking to him. when talking turns to flirting, he excuses himself and if they insist, he reminds them that he indeed has a wonderful significant other that he loves dearly

he gets so pissy and passive aggressive at them too if they keep pushing it

you bet your ass joe has sent you a video before

I think he'd like to see your loud side, but understands if its not something you can do in real life as much as you can online

jokes about how ur gonna leave him for ur online friends but like its very much a joke dw he's not an ass

however he enjoys really quiet moments

if you're doing something on your phone or computer he'll want to be next to you to do it

he's working on something or reading or something like that

and if he's reading mmmm him in glasses— ill stop now lol

anyway he just enjoys being close to you, not that you two have to be exchanging words. just being in your presence makes him happy

you stole the loml i hope u know that /nm

[pastagolia]

Songs that make me think of my boyfriend and why -

I don’t expect anyone to read this all the way through I just like making lists and wanna share a little bit of my heart

Caught Up In You by 38 Special - it’s one of those songs where the singer never expected to fall in love and then they met someone who changed their life and dragged them into the eternal bliss and obsession of love, and not to get too personal on main (she says at the beginning of a list of songs that remind her of her favourite person) but that is literally what happened with us. Both of us wanted to be single forever, but after meeting each other we changed our minds and immediately started planning for our future together

I Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing by Aerosmith - I asked him what song reminded him of me, and he sent me this all casual like “yeah I was lowkey thinking of you while listening to this sooo” and then I listened to it and actively cried

Hey, Leonardo by Blessed Union of Souls - see this one is just an amazing song because it’s all about how, as the chorus says, “she likes me for me" - not because of anything like looks or money or anything, but because of personality and the love in the soul, which as an asexual person I relate to real hard

The Boys of Summer by Don Henley - this is technically one of those break up songs that sing about a summer fling and how he thinks about her all those years later, but I love it because 1. it’s a beautiful song and 2. the first time I heard it was in the car with him on the way back from the first thing we went to as a couple. I sat next to him in his car holding his hand shielding my eyes from the setting sun, heading back to his house to eat dinner and play Minecraft, and it was just so amazing

Summer of ‘69 by Bryan Adams - one time we were sitting in the car and he said “bruh this is my favourite song because he says 69 lol” and now I laugh every time I listen to it (I laughed beforehand too but now the humour has a bit of love in it)

Photograph by Def Leppard - he made me listen to it because he liked the guitar solo and it is already a banger, plus it’s kind of  a love song (more like a lust song, but the lust is so easily disguised that I can sing it and still be all lovey without thinking about how this guy is basically wanking to a picture of a girl he likes)

Fat Bottomed Girls by Queen - I showed it to him because I thought he’d like it and apparently it’s one of his favourite songs so we sat in the car together scream singing about fat bottomed girls (and it’s kind of funny because he really did pick himself a fat bottomed girl so it’s funny to hear him singing about it lol)

Mr. Rainmaker by Warrant - this is just the sweetest song, here is the sweetest bit - “Mr. Rainmaker, don’t waste your time, cause I’ve found a girl who is permanent sunshine” - and that makes me smile so bad because he is my permanent sunshine

Share Your Address by Ben Platt - see this song is just a beautiful proclamation of love and the intention of spending the rest of your life with another person, which obviously has me thinking about the loml

Temporary Love by Ben Platt - while we’re on this Ben Platt album, temporary love is what I listen to whenever things get hard because it is about a couple pushing through the struggles of being intimate with each other and sharing their souls - “leaning on somebody’s never easy” - and that is so true, and a reminder that he loves me even when I feel scared to let him

I’m a Believer by Smash Mouth - this is good for a couple reasons 1. Shrek is a meme and half of our relationship is memes and humour 2. it’s another one where OP never thought he’d fall in love

Smooth (ft. Rob Thomas) by Santana - one of the songs that he recommended to me, so I think about him every time I listen

Hooked On a Feeling by Blue Swede - I am in fact hooked on the feeling that he’s in love with me. I was never appreciated by people I wasn’t related to whilst growing up, and the best friend I made in high school ended up just using me, so the idea that someone is actually in love with me and not pretending or using me is so beautiful

Walk This Way by Aerosmith - again, not a love song, but it’s a song that we both love and is a whole ass bop. Plus, when we were in high school, whenever we were trying to motivate our group to stop standing around and start walking we would start singing this, so not only is it a connection between us but it’s also a memory of a time when we were just friends and both secretly crushing on each other

Jack & Diane by John Mellencamp - a song that I got from his playlist that slapssss, and that kind of has some stuff that makes me think about him and about us

Hotel California by Eagles - this is a rock ballad. I am NOT a fan of rock ballads. But this is one of his favourite songs that he sings all the time, so back when I had a crush on him, I sat down and listened to it a billion times until it was stuck in my head and I was forced to like it so that we would have something in common, and now whenever I listen to it I think about him and what I would do for him

Mama I’m Coming Home by Ozzy Osbourne - this is another rock ballad but it’s one of his favourite songs so I conditioned myself to like it and now I love it and it makes me really happy, so particularly when the syncopated guitar comes in I think about him (no reason for the placement, I guess that’s just when I realised the song kind of went hard)

Dr. Feelgood by Motley Crue - my music taste is heavier metal and more exciting music (Black Veil Brides, Motley Crue, Metallica, Warrant, ACDC, etc) and his music taste is more chill classic rock (Queen, John Mellencamp, Aerosmith, Def Leppard, etc). I like a lot of his music - I’ll listen to pretty much anything as long as I can bop to it (that’s why I don’t like ballads) - but he doesn’t really like my harder stuff. This is one of the songs he recently admitted to liking, along with Enter Sandman by Metallica, so now I think about him when I hear them

then there’s a whole list of songs that I got from his playlist that are actual bops and I listen to mostly because I like them (but like a little bit of him still pops up when I listen), and LOTS of songs that I can picture us dancing to together in the car, screaming the lyrics and dancing and laughing together.

honestly I think what we’ve learned from this post is that I am in love with him and everything makes me think about him.

anywho, if you actually read all the way through this, hi I love you and I hope you will have/are having an amazing day. thanks for humouring me and letting me geek out about the one person in this world who chose to love me and has continued to choose to love me every single day

I literally cannot stop talking posting typing thinking about it and about him, I know it’s unhealthy to be obsessed, and honestly I don’t think I am obsessed, but you have no idea how crazy it is to me that there is someone in this world who picked me. out of everyone else in the world. he had a crush on the prettiest most talented girl in the whole school, and she liked him back, but he chose me. and he keeps picking me. every day he wakes up and sends me memes and tells me he loves me and takes as much time as possible out of his week to call me and thinks about me all day and tries his best for me. and that is crazy. I spent most of my life being told that the only reason I existed was to make other people happy and my worth was determined by how I let people use me and that people loved me not because of who I am but because of what I can do for them. so the fact that there is someone in this world who lets me be me in all my needy attention-whoring glory and loves me because of it shakes me to the core every single time I think about it. 

and I can’t stop talking about it, I wanna tell everyone that stands still that someone is in love with me and chose me and doesn’t think that I’m annoying and thinks that I’m worth it just because I exist and not because of what I can do for him and I just wanna tell everyone everywhere that HE LOVES ME

okay that’s it, ya girl is gonna go to bed - if you couldn’t tell I sorely need it. sleep well, dear friends, and remember that life is beautiful, you are beautiful and worth it, and that no matter what kind of love you want - platonic, romantic, sexual - it is there for you and it will be more amazing than anything you can dream of

[hongism]

okay but fr this chapter was absolutely spectacular like my jaw dropped. i absolutely loved the backstory you gave us and the way you wrote it was so freaking cool like i pictured it so clearly in my head and i could not stop reading!! i can see that san and yn are about to be more of a thing and while it is not my #1 ship, i am extremely excited to see it play out fr. and i know a lot of people want to see like woosang x yn, but honestly i really want to see woo and yn get closer but more in a platonic or sibling like way, i think they are going to come to care for each other a lot but not romanticly and i really want to see that. i find the found family aspect in these types of stories to be so powerful gahhh.

i am ready for the big reveal for next chapter and ive seen you mention its not gonna be anything we can come up with and im just ready. like hit me with all you got. as always, you are the queen of fantasy. ILYYYY -solar🌙

EEEEEEE omg thank you bby pls i’ll 😖😖😖 you’re too sweet to me just break my heart why don’t you </3 but im THRILLED that wooyoung has become your fave ohohooh i know we all still harbor Mountains of love for hwa bc it’s hwa and he just yes. just yes. know that im struggling as much as you are ;;-; but let’s go wooyoung bestest boy he’s shaping out to be quite brilliant isn’t he 👀

as for the next chapter teehee im so beyond excited for it altho i have a sneaking suspicion that it’s gonna be another long chapter we’ll just have to wait and see! i’m finishing up the outline today or tomorrow i hope so </3 i can’t guarantee whether the big reveal will come in the next chapter or if something will interfere buuuuuut im ready to hit you with all i’ve got don’t you worry 😤

forgehope said: How does Gale feel about Vivi? The Harvest Goddess/King? How does Chase feel about Maya? How do Chase & Gale feel about each other?

UNPROMPTED BECAUSE ARTHAS IS THE LOML.

How does Gale feel about Vivi?

The sun rises, the moon sets, the Wizard cannot fucking STAND the Witch. Gale hates Vivi with every fiber of his being and it’s a deep, deep set hatred that has spanned as long as the two entities have been alive. He will never be her friend. He will never give her the time of day. He will never extend a hand to her. While Gale is a soft and understanding being, he is also extremely set in his opinions of people once he has formed said opinions.

Vivi is the night to his day, the death to his life. The only time he will EVER allow her to step foot into his provinces is when the two of them have absolutely no choice but to join forces, but those alliances are short and unpleasant. Needless to say, the bad blood that runs between them is dark and bitter. They’ve had explosive interactions stepping into one-another’s thresholds and, as such, have learned to stay clear of one-another. If they need something from the other, they send a messenger in their steed. They CAN be cordial around each other, but in very short doses.

This is something I’ll elaborate on more because I have very Deep Lore(tm) for Gale’s character that I still just. Haven’t gotten into, but Gale and Vivi do not mix. He thinks she’s an abomination and she thinks he’s a waste of the powers given to him, although in the grand scheme of things, their telltale roles of “good/light/life” and “evil/dark/death” are necessary. Tldr Gale hates her and it’s a feud that has been in place for as many centuries as he’s been alive and although they still acknowledge the existence of one-another, don’t expect them to be standing in one-another’s presence without a damn good reason.

The Harvest Goddess/King?

Contrary to what one may think, his opinion on the Goddess and King are somewhat more complex than first meets the eye. It’s not to say that he doesn’t respect them, because he absolutely does. He does not, however, worship them or even necessarily see them as god-like entities. Perhaps because he is inhuman himself and immortal, he has lost his sense of faith. He believes in magic and things beyond humanity’s control OBVIOUSLY, but he does not believe in Gods. The Goddess and King are just servants of the Earth, the same as he (and arguably Vivi) are.

The Harvest Goddess he looks upon more favorably, although he would not technically call her a friend. She is a calming presence to which he occasionally is allowed the company of, but the two rarely interact. She knows of him and he is always aware of her, but their paths do not cross beyond times where the Earth relies on both of them or he, in her steed, carries out the will of the land in order to protect and heal it. Whether or not she favors him, he cannot say. But the times they do cross one-another, he is respectful.

The King is much more mysterious to him and leaves him with many questions on how exactly he feels regarding his existence. The Harvest King does not often get mixed up with the trifles of humanity, preferring to govern the affairs of the Earth from within his own realm, so needless to say, there are very few times in history that Gale has even MET him. Ironically, Gale sees him as very cold and regal, as opposed to the Goddess’ warmer nature. In truth, he’s a little put off by his approach, but overall, his opinion of him is very neutral.

How does Chase feel about Maya?

Listen maybe I’m in the minority but I HATE Maya and Chase’s entire dynamic and relationship as presented in game. Maya/Chase is AWFUL and I REFUSE to recognize that romantic ship on this blog, I cannot stand it. Chase’s feelings towards Maya are confused in the sense that like. He doesn’t dislike her, necessarily, but she annoys him. Maya treats Chase like nothing more than a quest to be conquered or an object she wants to win by proving herself and like??? Honestly literally never gave me the vibe that she knew anything about HIM as a person beyond “oooo he’s a cute good cook uwu notice me uwuwuwu” and then Chase is the one who got demonized for being rude to her.

Even though she bothers him, he doesn’t see her as actually hopeless or anything, though. She has good qualities. She’s determined and headstrong and if she really put her mind to it, he’s certain that she could accomplish the goals she set. But always having her act like he’s up on this pedestal and he OWES her his heart or whatever because that’s what she wants is ridiculous. Could the two of them become friends? Absolutely!! I think Chase/Maya has a lot of platonic potential, especially since Chase sees a lot of her good qualities and finds her cheerful and fun when she isn’t being... Like That.

Maya’s a nice, cute girl, but he doesn’t see her romantically (and never will!!! I’m sorry!!) He wishes she’d stop bothering him with UNWANTED!!! AFFECTIONS!!! and focus on herself more, because she could really be a good chef and learn a lot if she would just ... put her heart into it and honest to god LISTEN and TRY. He doesn’t hate her, she’s just really agitating and pushes him way too far and he’s bitter because it’s unfair that he takes the blame for that when he’s just not interested.

How do Chase & Gale feel about each other?

Gale and Chase are rarer to cross paths than some of the other townsfolk, but they do on occasion because Chase will at times find himself exploring the woods, mostly looking for animals to interact with or a place that isn’t his house to practice playing his violin. I feel like Gale would’ve stumbled upon him once or twice playing and taking a liking to it. They’re definitely, like... civil acquaintances. Not quite friends, but they’ve reached the point where the Wizard will speak kindly to him and Chase is acting friendly rather than being a tsun bitch about it KJNHKJHNM.

Chase absolutely asks Gale for help on occasion when he gets sick or will go to him on others’ behalves when they could use something for their health. Because he’s so polite about it, Gale will always do what he asks of him free of charge and wish him or whomever else is sick well.

A lot of Gale’s interactions with the other townsfolk are through Chase, unless they directly come and ASK for him themselves. If someone needs medicine, or a potion, something for their children, something to soothe pain, etc, etc. Chase will volunteer to get it from Gale because he’s Actually Nice(TM) and Gale will give it to him because unlike a lot of the other townsfolk who even to this day he has not met everyone, he does know him.

Thanks now I stan Chase/Gale mini friendship.

1, 19, and 26 for the movie/tv asks 🍈💛

edit: OH I JUST GOT THE EMOJIS ILYSM!!!!!!! 🍈💛

1. top five tv shows

critical role - not technically a tv show but it has completely taken over my life and i NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT

game of thrones - seasons 1-6 only, i am nothing if not a mega fantasy nerd and oh lord this show was so great before it became literally the worst letdown in the history of cinematic storytelling

american horror story: coven - WITCH BITCHES FTW!!! i also really enjoyed murder house but coven is SUPREME*

scrubs!! - literally makes me laugh so much every time i watch it oh i love it

gilmore girls - i am constantly craving autumn and this show will forever be a balm on my sad, sweaty, desert rat soul

19. top five underrated characters (going to try to keep this about twilight!! and whoops i slipped that’s more than five oh well)

MIKE NEWTON - i know he’s a joke but let me love him & thus make you all love him by association, trust me he’s a good buddy underneath his nonsense

angela webber :’) ♡ loml

bella swan - my girl gets overlooked all the time come on guys

leah clearwater - stephenie come on you were really onto something here you didn’t need to nerf all your most interesting characters

esme cullen - she’s an architect!! she designed all their houses & interiors!!!! she’s so kind and loving and has a heart shaped face and gardens and adopts literally everyone and oh my god i love her

jessica stanley - literally all of the human characters are underrated and i will defend them until my dying breath!!!! jessica is wicked smart and a super gossip and i LOVE HER FOR IT gOD

charlie swan - like yes he’s funny as hell in the books and Dad™ in the movies but oof, he’s so good for bella??? i love their dynamic SO MUCH and i wish stephenie had spent more time developing it. also he’s absolutely adorable and has unlimited possibilities for angst which is the most important character trait ever

waylon forge - buttcrack santa. nuff said.

26. top five crack ships (again going to keep this about twilight because this fandom is very gay and welcoming i don’t want to get hate for my Opinions™ on other material)

angela/bella!!!! - like my #1 ship oh it makes me so happy

billy/charlie - i just love the potential here, they’re both very lonely in canon and their friendship goes through a lot during the story and yet they always care deeply about each other. i love the potential here, the classic childhood best friends to lovers progression of their relationship

edythe/bella - not really a crack ship??? kinda canon??? but it’s so good. i do love bellward but make it GAY and OH HERE WE GO (edward/beau is also lovely)

mike/jacob - i have a post saved in my drafts about this that’s like SUPER LONG and got way out of hand and i don’t know if they would be right for each other long term, but their interactions in new moon and the possibilities that could have unraveled from there and the journies of self discovery they could go on together make me so happy, especially in the context of wlw!bella being a strong friend to both of them

mike & bella - this last one is platonic and super obvious as it is my BRAND, but i love love love their friendship, and i wish mike had gotten a chance to be more than just a comic relief character. he’s so kind and caring and while i definitely don’t ship him and bella romantically i wish they had become better friends, that bella had let herself become attached to her human friend group and not just ignored/forgotten about them in the long run. this isn’t a crack ship as much as me crying in the corner over these idiot teens i love them so much. bella needs silliness in her life and mike is nothing if not silly, and after she turns him down he’s still a great friend to her and that’s really telling of his character potential

and one last thank you

which would be to you, wonderful reader of this right now. whether you’ve been here since day one or found my account just now; whether you left a like in passing or shared one of my posts to your story bc it made you laugh or you related to it or it helped you; whether you took the time to write me a comment or replied to one of my stories or sent me a dm just to say hi or how much you liked my account; thank you. if it weren’t for any of you, i would not be where i am today. i love every single one of you so much <3333

[odegaardbf]

missed you more!!! i’ve just been grinding revision at libraries every day r u proud, almost done with biological principles and then i’ll only have three topics left! barely done socio tho, i did spend all day yesterday learning culture key terms and answering five mark questions, tbh all i need to do is learn theorists and how to answer question the rest i can freestyle. missed u sm bby (u r also my platonic loml)-🧸

IM PROUD OF U ANON!!! socio is easy to freestyle once u have key terms, theorists and basic theory. feminism always relates back to the exploitation of women in society, marxism relates back to the exploitation of the working class by upper classes and those with power (in family talk about the warm bath theory!!) and functionalists just waffle abt how everything is a system and we all benefit each other!! that's literally how I got a 8 in sociology
