Prototype Fredbear (The Fallen Hero AU) visits the Sun and Moon Show universe.

The SAMS universe didn't have anything that Shadow Kennedy and Shadow Afton wanted, so he just turned around and left. He only stepped out into Kill-Code's base and was like "I hate this place already).

Advice for beginner Hellenists

This isn't necessarily a post where I include a list of Gods, epithets, resources, and offerings for said Gods, but rather, hopefully soothing the worries of those of us who are starting the journey into the religion. As someone who was once in a religion that made other religions sound like something absolutely terrifying, my journey into Hellenism was once which was also... pretty terrifying, and this fear was mostly just from my own mind.

Anyways, my list of Advice:

You can literally just start praying. If you want to get more formal, you can absolutely get more formal, but you very much don't have to. I've definitely had my first prayers to some Gods be "hello, [God or Goddess's name], I want to worship You! Please lead me in my journey. Thanks!" I can promise you, the Gods are much kinder and more understanding than any of us fully know.

You can also just start worshiping in general. I feel like I've seen on occasion people worried about the Gods not "calling" to them. This is definitely not something that needs to happen pre-worship. If you find them interesting enough to pray to, then that in and of itself is enough.

In a similar vein, I wouldn't be too concerned about the idea of "signs". I feel like there's a tendency for folks to be incredibly worried about everything when first starting out - the behavior of a candle, the sighting of an animal, a strange dream, all can suddenly seem to take on jarring significance. But I can promise you, the Gods don't constantly give out signs, and frequently, these strange occurrences can be attributed to the mundane. When something comes from the Gods, you will know, trust me!

You don't have to worry too much about the idea of cleanliness, be it spiritual or physical. Khernips are cool, and I'd definitely recommend integrating them into your practice sooner or later. Hygiene is cool too! But if I'm being honest, we in the modern day are far more physically clean, and a lot less likely to regularly encounter the type of pollution that would have been encountered in ancient Greece.

The Gods will be at varying distances over the course of your worship. Sometimes, They will feel close, joyfully, burningly so. And sometimes, They will feel far, and prayers may even feel a bit futile. Both of those are perfectly okay, and neither of those will be permanent.

And, once again in a similar vein, you will likely not find yourself having constant, close mystical experiences with the Gods (i.e., conversations, visions, etc.). These experiences are rare and far between, and I would advise that you not make them a central part of your worship. They will come when the Gods deem you're ready for them, and you definitely won't be expecting it. Focus on the little things!

My final thing (for now) is that you also shouldn't put undue pressure on yourself to be doing some sort of big offering to the Gods. If that's what you can afford, that's great! But if not, fresh water, a small wildflower that you came across and picked*, or a small bit of a meal also count as a good offering!

And with that, my (much longer than I was previously planning on) list of things for beginners to keep in mind! A lot of this list is made up of things which I picked up along the way, and a lot of it is also made from my own personal hindsight being 20/20. I hope this is helpful to someone, and that it maybe soothes some of the (incredibly common) worries which so often accompany those who are venturing into the world of Hellenic polytheism!

Hey I saw your old post asking which fanfics you should do next. I know it didn’t win but could you please please please do “Tell Me You Love Me Again” with Eddie. Im in dire need of some good angst ❤️

Tell Me You Love Me Again

Sorry this took me so long to write! I have had some massive writer's block. Hopefully, this is okay!

Pairing: Rockstar!Eddie Munson x reader

Story Type: Angst

Warning: Y/N use, swearing, Eddie's a bit of a greedy ass ngl

Summary: You've been with Eddie since before he was famous. It used to be a loving relationship. As the years have passed, things have changed. Can you save the dying spark between you?

*Not Proof Read*

□□□□□□□

"Baby, you wanted to talk. Why are we just sitting here in silence?" Eddie asks with a grin. He casually flips through a music magazine, observing all of the new instruments for sale.

I take a deep breath. How do I even start this conversation? He's been so busy launching his band's new line of merch that I doubt this is a great time to talk about our relationship. Who knows when we'll have another opportunity? This is the first time I've been able to see him privately in weeks. I don't know how long I can keep harboring my frustrations.

"We do need to talk...here goes nothing." I sigh. "It's about our relationship."

Eddie pulls his eyes away from his magazine, his smile fading into a serious expression. "What about it?"

"I've been feeling very frustrated lately. I feel like you're never home, and I never get to see you anymore. I miss you." I reply honestly.

Eddie sets the magazine on top of the coffee table that separates us. "I know it's been busy lately, but it's great for us! Now I can take you anywhere you want to go. Name any place, and I can bring you there." Eddie's playful smile returns.

I let out a tired laugh. "Eddie, that's nice and all, but the problem is you don't have the time to take me anywhere I want to go. I just want you to dial it back a bit, please. Spend more time with me, and I'm sure Wayne would love it if you spent some time with him, too."

I'm not even sure if Eddie has time to call Wayne anymore. I might be the only one talking to him regularly.

"I spend plenty of time with Wayne." Eddie's expression is slightly offended.

"It's just the past year; you've rarely been back. Can't you take some time off? Cancel a few tour dates or reschedule some photoshoots?"

"I can't just abandon my career, Y/N. My band has worked so hard for this." Eddie argues. "It wouldn't be fair to the boys."

"What about what's fair to me, Eddie?" I let out a frustrated sigh. "I'm not asking you to abandon anything, Eddie. I just think you should prioritize our relationship a little more. We barely see each other anymore!" My heart pounds. "When you're not on tour, you're constantly doing promotional videos or photoshoots. We haven't gone on a date in almost a month."

My flurry of emotions has caused tears to prick the back of my eyes. Fuck, I can't cry right now.

Eddie's shoulders are tense. His usual animated and playful exterior is replaced with a frustrated and angry one. One I rarely see, especially not when talking to me.

"That's part of the job. I'm a fucking rockstar, Y/N. I can't exactly blow off the world tours and photoshoots. My label and manager expects me to get shit out quickly. You don't understand! The moment I stop making songs and producing new shit, the moment all of this, " He gestures around the room to all of his expensive nicknacks and furniture. "disappears. I'll become irrelevant. My band will become irrelevant. This is my life, Y/N. And you're going to need to learn to accept it."

My frown deepens. "Do you hear yourself? How can you not see how greedy you're becoming? What happened to just loving music? Loving the art of creating, no matter how many people heard. When did this all become about money?" I stand up from my spot on Eddie's couch, needing to put some distance between myself and the man. I avoid making eye contact with him, knowing if I do, I'll burst into tears.

This room suddenly feels so suffocating. "Is this really all you care about? How many shows you can sell out? How deep your pockets can get?"

"For fucks sake, Y/N." Eddie groans as he leans back against his recliner. His head hits the back of the seat, an annoyed expression flashing across his face. "You're being so fucking dramatic."

I shake my head. "This is not what I signed up for. You are not the man I signed up to be with."

Eddie stiffens. Hurt crosses his eyes. His face turns stoic as he looks me dead in the eye. A dark anger replaces his hurt. "Things change. People change. Obviously, I've changed. If you hate me so fucking much, why don't you get the fuck out and find someone new? Someone who better suits your lifestyle since you're not happy with me."

I freeze. My heart drops at his bitter words. He's never spoken to me like this before.

He's so different than the man I fell in love with all those years ago. Life seemed simpler in Hawkins. I'd work the night shift at The Hideout and he'd play with his band. I was able to see him regularly while he was still able to do what he loved. No massive world tours to separate us for months. No partying until early the next day. Just the two of us, supporting each other and doing what we loved.

I feel my cheeks heat from embarrassment and anger. He's right. He's changed, and it's obviously been for the worse. "You know what, you're right."

Eddie's eyes widen slightly in surprise, like he didn't think I'd agree.

"You don't want to work this out like an adult, so I'm going to leave. We're done, Eddie. I can't do this anymore. I deserve someone willing to set aside time for me. I shouldn't be the only one giving 100% to the relationship. I need someone who respects me and what I need. You can't give that to me." I grab my purse from the couch. I pause right before I reach the door. " Eddie, " I turn to look back at the man.

He doesn't meet my gaze. His eyes are trained on his locked hands. He looks like he's in disbelief.

"I hope you find what you're looking for. Just know that you'll never have enough money or fame to please yourself. Materialistic things can only bring you so much happiness. You'll suffer until you realize that. I just hope it isn't too late when you finally do."

With that, I leave the apartment. As soon as the door behind me clicks shut, the tears begin to fall. I lean against the wall near Eddie's door and wrap my arms around myself for some sort of support.

I wish he loved me enough to apologize. I wish he would come out here, tell me he was wrong, and that he was going to try to fix things.

I finally garner the strength to push away from Eddie's wall and make my way downstairs. With every step, I think of new things I wish Eddie would do.

When I take my last step out of the apartment building, disappointment settles in my chest as I realize none of my wishes came true.

Eddie's a rockstar. He'll never love me as much as he loves his lifestyle.

I was stupid to think he'd always be the man I fell in love with in Hawkins, Indiana.

General Info/Frequently Asked Questions

Hi! I'm Talia 👑, i'm so happy you're here 🥰

Here is a list of FAQ that I get; please never ever hesitate to send me an ask or a message if you don't see what you're looking for here (or if you just want to chat) 💕 I absolutely adore hearing from you.

Do you have a Masterlist?

Yes I do, you can find it in my bio or linked here 💕

All of my series and collections have their own Masterlist:

The Game Itself (In Progress)

Princess of Diamonds (In Progress)

One Look Collection (In Progress)

Castles and Crowns Collection (In Progress)

Starcrossed (In Progress)

Do you have a Tag List?

Since I enjoy writing many different types of stories (and also because I write a lot of NSFW content 😜), I keep my Tag Lists separate. These are the lists I'm currently working with:

○ Everything Tag List -> Everything that I publish

○ Alice in Borderland Tag List -> Every AiB story that I publish

○ Chishiya Tag List -> All of my Chishiya stories

○ The Game Itself Tag List -> New chapters and one-shots set in The Game Itself universe

○ Princess of Diamonds Tag List -> New parts of Princess of Diamonds

○ Jujutsu Kaisen Tag List -> Every JJK story that I publish

If you don't see a list that pertains to what you're looking for, all you have to do is ask! For example, if you don't want to be tagged in smutfics, just let me know; I will never be offended. Your wish is my command 💕

Do you post on AO3?

Yes I do! I am thecheshireprincess over there as well 💕

I'll be super honest, I am not a master of using that space yet, but I'm sure I will learn someday

Do you have preferred pronouns/how can I address you?

Yes! Thank you so much for always being respectful to me and others in our community when you speak to us 🥰 I am she/her/hers

You can call me by my name, Talia. I also go by:

○ Princess

○ Koko

○ TC (Talia Corinne)

○ Giiiiiirlllll (iykyk)

○ Biiiitch/that bitch/this bitch/a bitch

○ Dude

○ Bro

. . . or pretty much whatever you like as long as it is well-intended ✨️

I usually joke that you guys could hit me with a baseball bat and I would just be grateful that you're interacting with me 🤣 I just love you that much! 🫶🏻

Who do you write for?

AIB: The majority of my current stories are about Chishiya (he is my husband), second most somehow being about Niragi (aka Dori Sakurada). I am super open to writing for any character, tbh.

Other characters I have active WIPs for: Aguni, Hatter, Kyuma, Kuina, Ann, Kuzuryu, Tatta, Karube

JJK: I'm most comfortable writing for Geto and Gojo, but I am willing to try with whoever.

If you have someone specific in mind, don't hesitate to reach out! ✨️

Do you take requests?

Sure! I'd be honored to make your dreams come true. Send me an ask 🫶🏻

My requests are currently closed until August 17th so I can focus on writing the epic stories you all have requested of me so far! I would be happy to recommend some authors that might be able to help, or you can catch me in August if you can wait! 🫶🏻

How often do you update?

These are the two series that I currently post regularly, and this is when you can expect them💕✨️

Mondays: Princess of Diamonds -> Week B

Fridays: The Game Itself -> Week A

This means requests/random one-shots that pop into my head will probably come on other days of the week. I do try to give a rough posting date for my WIPs, which you can find here; just keep in mind that inspiration happens when it happens and I can't always force myself to get things done.

Regardless, it is very unlikely that I go more than two to three days without publishing something. If I do, send a search party - I might not be alright.

Have you read the manga?

AIB: My AiB obsession started with the manga way back in the day (2010, was it?)! I love re-reading it when I'm not too busy, and you'll notice that I mix storylines/personalities from both the manga and the adaptation in my writing.

Except for Niragi - if I'm writing Niragi, it is Dori Sakurada I'm writing for, let's be honest. I would gladly murder manga Niragi, bring him back to life, and murder him again.

JJK: I haven't fully read the manga for JJK yet, but I do plan on it really soon; maybe over the summer!

Do you ship any of the characters together?

AIB: I only ship Kuina x Ann - they are the air in my lungs and I wanted so much more from their relationship 🥹💕

I do, however, strongly believe Chishiya x Niragi belong together, though I prefer that they are both with me (at the same time 😜).

JJK: SatoSugu forever, baby

Do you belong to any fandoms aside from AiB and JJK?

This is a fun one ✨️ Of course!

My very first fandom was probably Harry Potter, I'm sure you can guess that I am very much a Slytherin 🐍 with a very big Severus Snape and Draco Malfoy obsession

I also love:

○ Marvel (Loki, Bucky Barnes, Tony Stark, and Doctor Strange)

○ Star Wars (Din Djarin/Grogu, Obi Wan Kenobi)

○ Squid Game (In-ho specifically, sheesh 🥵)

I'm sure there are more, but these are my mains!

Do you have advice for new writers?

Absolutely 💕 My biggest piece of advice is to write whatever it is that YOU WANT TO READ. Every story I've written so far is because it was something I wanted to read and couldn't find. It makes it easier because you know at least YOU are invested ✨️ Otherwise, just write. Write. And write. And write.

Also, don't try to be perfect in your first draft, you'll get frustrated. Most of my stories start as bullet points 🤣🤭

If you ever have specific questions about this, please send an ask! I'm happy to help 🥰

Crimson Phantom: the one that gfkion got me

Flashback to my old yakutier list: in the top tier, you'll notice that one of these is not like the others:

SO WHAT IS IT DOING THERE????????

Perhaps the reason Crimson Phantom R5 ranks so high is cuz of the PERSONAL HISTORY i got with it. The straw that broke the fish's back? the last drop of water that makes the cup run over and spill onto my socks MOST iRRITATINGLY?Hm. Maybe. Prepare yourself for the longest post yet:

Let me give you a timeline...

May 2022: start playing nuca during Mystical Banquet. First SSR is Endless Banquet Garu. I am intrigued by his musculature and adorable puppy eyes. July 2022: Idol Fest. I only care about Olivine. Captain Oli is the one SSR i get, and i am exceedingly happy. October 2022: Eerie Escapade. I pull for Garu, but get 3 Yakumos. I am bitter and ignore him entirely. November 2022: I don't have many SSRs, so I consider building my 2-star vampire yaku. This would involve unlocking his rooms for the stat boost. I ask Friend A, who also plays nuca, what his rooms are like. Friend A says "it was roleplay cringe but free' I respond, "i expected as much" and do not build up vampire yaku. December 2022: I get Friend B to start playing nuca. Since we live together, it is very easy to spark impromptu , impassioned nuca discussions in the middle of the kitchen. February 2023: Friend B discovers the main menu- Past Events and Galleria, most notably. Their eyes sparkle as they look thru the events they missed. "When did you start playing?" they ask. "Since THIS event." i say, pointing to the Mystical Banquet banner. "Can I see who you have?" I give them my phone. They express mild awe as they scroll. We continue life as usual. March 2023: Friend B gets Spring Chaos Edmond and i am JEALOUS. I say so- regularly and loudly. During one such griping session, this occurs:

Me: you JUST started playing . you cannoT be destroying me in the rolls like this!!! i'm getting NOTHING!! Friend: but you have so many units that I don't! That I didn't even have a chance to get!!! Me: none of them are Beautiful Bride Edmond??!!! Friend: BUT YOU HAVE VAMPIRE YAKUMO Me: ?????????? so??? Friend: GOD HE'S SO BEAUTIFUL AND I'M SO SAD I MISSED HIM Me: you can have him. he's not doing anything over here. i wanted garu!! Friend: YOU HAVEN'T EVEN UNLOCKED HIS ROOMS? THAT'S NOT FAIR. GIVE HIM TO ME. I'LL TREAT HIM RIGHT Me: i wish i could dude i wish i could

Please imagine the utmost confusion on my face the moment my friend equated Bride Edmond's beauty to Vampire Yakumo's.

Because,, from the moment I started nuca, I had zero interest in yakumo's general aesthetic. I was long soured off the vibes due to an extensive history of dating sims shoving a Certain Guy into my face:

"Certain Guy AKA 1st potential love interest is imperious red/black guy who's also kinda the True Ending so we're only giving you the illusion of free will and you will be disappointed by the lack of care we give to other routes compared to this guy. You wanted a character that wasn't him? HAHAHA nah that nobody dies in a ditch offscreen. You were SUPPOSED to fall in love with the 1st guy we showed you and find his attitude problems attractive for the rest of your blissfully coupled life." (The freshest wound at the time was Nobunaga from that Specific branch of the ike series)

Butbutbut!! Yakumo is not imperious??? He's nothing like what you're describing??

Yes, dear reader, your assessment is fair. UNfORtUNATeLY, I'm a shallow ho and just the LOOK of his redblack skeleton embroidery was enough to repel me. The only thing that kept Yakumo in the Neutral zone was that his story self was Wibbly.

Looking at VAMPIRE yakumo, however... This was not wibbly. Here, with his hair slicked back and his torso seemingly widened and his generic bishonen-vampire-halloween-cosplay ...... it irked me. I did not like it. This look was everything I hated about those redblack domineering types haunting my past. The one interesting thing about yakumo (his wibble. his personality subversion of the aggro trope) and they GOT RID OF IT? Nah. I'm not into it. I refuse it out of principle.

I was steadfast in my dismissal of vampyaku for months.. But that was because I played alone- without outside influence.

Then that March conversation with Friend B happened.

SUDDENLY, SOMEONE introduces the POSSIBILITY that YAKUMO in THIS form can be attractive? Huh? Seriously? People think that?Legitimately never occurred to me. Unfortunately, my friend's words are in my head now.

During that convo (a convo which, unbeknownst to me, caused the first cracks in the healthy moderation i held for this game), i jokingly offered to unlock vampire yaku's rooms so my friend could watch them. A peace offering. "PLEASE!!!!!", they yelled,, with effusive sincerity.

Ah... well now I had to commit...

Determined to give my friend a Nice Thing, I threw excess knives at yakumo in my spare time. "I might as well unlock these rooms, and see how bland they are, and maybe sorta achieve vindication when I show them to my friend and they find out how Not Worth It vampire yakumo is compared to bride edmond" (I am fueled by spite and pettiness.)

thus, with time... ROOM 1 UNLOCKED!

Yakumo is wallowing again. Nothing new. He's handling the new cooking duties well, though. Good for him! Eiden is perceptive and wonderful, as usual... ah, eiden, beloved eiden.....i adore him and all the Sense he brings to these traumatised clan members ☺ Oop, there they go! initiating the cliche roleplay! Biting. Blood. Yep. Guess we're doing this.

AND NOW WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT ROOM 2

I was so self-satisfied when i unlocked R2. I mean, i wasn't going to show my friend until i unlocked EVERYTHING, but so far? From what I saw? this ain't it. this is SAD. this is... so very unsexy.

the only thing anchoring me to the present while watching this room was eiden's cheeky self. As Friend A remarked long ago, this was indeed cringe roleplay (but eiden is free).

I'm not very adept at voice reading/recognition, but i still felt something was up with yaku's voice. Meaning, it was different. he was REALLY laying it on heavy... It being the Role? Where was his tremulous soft voice? Naaaaaah, here in R2 we got yaku DROPPING octaves like they're on fire and affecting a drawl that...i think... is supposed to add to the seductive dangerous mood? i think? i'm really not good at parsing the horny from the Not fjkdrhgdu

with every extended vowel leaking thru yaku's fangs MY ANTI-NOBUNGA DEFENSES ARE BRISTLING yaku is REALLY playing it [Count Drakumo] up and he is NOT himself and, wait, he's spiralling? ooohhhhhh ok this is not good this is not fun he is not having fun

yes ok we've been over this my boner is dead killed by sadness that's just me not everybody is like me and i should let ppl like what they like MOVING ON

ROOM 3: OOOh Girl How they gonna react after THAT disastrous scene Woah!

Yakumo, angry???? Standoffish???? REfusing to be near Eiden? Interesting.... I mean. No! Not interesting! There's nothing interesting about vampire yakumo! Cliche as hell!!! Conventionally decent-lookin whatever-man is growling and hiding his face in a shadowy corner while saying things like "oh i'm a horrible monster .who could truly love me?!" and "stay away!! i'll only hurt you!!!"

Eiden: starts spouting truths about how the perception of "bad" and "undesirable" traits don't negate an entire person's positive traits and that someone's value can't be determined by such rigid thinking

Me: dammit eiden. stop making sense. i'm trying to hold a grudge here .............i'm starting to get hungry...

ROOM 4: OOPS I LOVE EIDEN AGAIN

I LOVE YOU EIDEN AND READING THIS ROOM MADE ME LOVE YOU EVEN MORE yakumo is, once again, spiralling in his self-hatred. i, on the other side of the screen, am getting weary. tbh, if you asked me to react to yakumo in real time, i would not know how to behave appropriately. i probably would have dismissed his concerns in some way (empty reassurances or bored ignoring).

but eiden??? ebeatutiiful emotionally UNconstipated FULL OF EMPATHY FIBRE eiden? candid... communicative... accepting yet not encouraging the dark thought patterns. . a self-aware king...

so when eiden gets in front of that mirror to demonstrate the self-talk "training":

I AM SO ENDEARED AND IM LO IBVE UHJIJM....

When Eiden gives yaku a chance to try, poor snakey doesn't know what to say. So Eiden whispers all these nice words and affirmations while standing behind yaku, expecting him to repeat them outloud THEN OF COURSE THE SILLY GUY ESCALATES TO HORNY AND I HAVE TO 🤣🤣🤣

ok, i'll begrudgingly admit... pretty cute interaction... and funny... if there's one way to win me over it's The Funny... how dare. how dare this room make me smile. I'm having a little giggle. Over a Yakumo room. THANKS eiden. For injecting humour into anything and making everything seem more tolerable...

After the practice run, Yaku ends up spilling his actual fears about his dual natures... but eiden insists that he can handle both.

yaku: if i think these dark thoughts does that make me a bad person eiden: well we all have layers n stuff so go wild yaku: if. if i. wanna lock u away all for myself and gnaw on your bones forever and keep u attached to my skin like an anglerfish absorbs mates into their flesh. will u hate me??? eiden: girl let your freak flag fly. i can take u ;););)

OKAY. SO MAYBE I CAN SORT OF SEE THE POTENTIAL FOR *NOT-AS-SAD* HORNY. THIS IS QUITE NICE (i comment mildly, gesturing to the emotional catharsis and deepening your understanding of another person). Now that yaku is emboldened in uh, being himself? all versions of himself? let's see how boinking is gonna go. hopefully it will be quite the departure from R2's struggle hours...

FUFIOKIN. ROOM 5: BANE OF MY EXISTENCE

The FIRST thing that strikes me when the room starts is

EIDEN YOU ARE SO HOT WHAT TH BRWOIJAOIEWFSKAESFKJLFEA?

INIPPL?

EIDEN'S HANDS? I'M BITING THEM? LET ME BITE THEM??? Yeah so i'm just staring at eiden displayed proudly in the mirror and a bird could probably land in my mouth with how it was hanging open, thinking, "yall know how to lewd your protagonist, nuca.... respect....." i'm distracted, but i need to move the room along so

.? ⚠! (ALERT NOISE) (ping!) the only yakumo room i've unlocked at this point is the OG SSR/Story H. i may have seen idol r2, too. so my current image of yakumo at this point is: -wet -crying -subby little baby

therefore, him saying he's GOING TO TEASE EIDEN causes my brow to upturn. 🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨 really? really, yakumo? YOU? are you even capable of doing that? can you do more than one thing [be wet baby]? i doubt it. these games always choose one niche for a character and stick to it... you caNNOT drift into switchery. try it i dare u (<- famously lesser-known last words)

eiden, in line with "i can take all of you", responds that he likes both. and btw, this ain't one-sided. he warns that he's about to weaponise bottoming again. if yakumo thinks he can just lead eiden around, lolollololo l good luck. my boy's gonna squeeze him dry (seriously. i have zero faith in yakumo's ability to stay in control of any situation)

OK! so! they're fukin *mundane hand gesture. rollin it along*

yakumo slows his roll and is all, actually, part of the fun is looking at you confused and needy :3 so he's going at a super lax pace and adjusting his dick angle and some other tactical penis feint that's edging eiden into horny frustration

as if i'm cheering on my fave racehorse, i start YELLING when eiden ~~snatches back the reins~~~~

WEAPONISE! 👏THAT!! 👏BOTTOM!!!!!!!👏🏭🎬ATTABOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!📣📣📣🔊📢🔊🎖🥳📣🔊📢

wait what ........HOW HAS HE NOT LOST IT? if eiden went off on me like that, uhhhhhhhhhhh hahahaha rest in pesis i'm losing immediately but... crybaby.... is holding it together? in fact, he somehow TAKES CONTROL AGAIN??????? THET F ????

idk guess i'm shocked with processing another side of yakumo that i didn't expect,, i avoided yakumo because his look served potential for "2000s toxic seme" energy. but i tolerated him because his ACTUAL personality was NOT That. yet... now he's showing that exact domineery junk and i'm ..ok with it? Is it specifically because i've only seen him be pathetic in every other room?!

i'm just gonna...a. take a moment here to... maybe sort of understand the predicament i'm in along with my growing . something. admiration? for yakumo. uhhh.... hmmmm..........

yeah ok whatever people can be freaks about nipples i guess

SHIT I FORGOT HE HAS COLD HANDS . SHIT. I FORGOT I LIKE COLD HANDS SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M INTO THAT?

NOT THE NECK BITING AGAIN AHAHAHAHAAHHAHHA FOR REAL?????? VAMPIRE COSPLAY SERIOUS????? (<- my voice has gone an octave higher as i start panic laughing)

i don't know why i didn't expect that here. do i just not think ahead? it's stupid count drakumo. of course he's gonna suck blood. at least twice. maybe the rest of you saw it coming, and rolle dyour eyes. ahahaha, how very trite. how very standard.

did the active shattering of my preconceived yakumo.png weaken me THAT much? was i sudddenly swept up into the revelation thata game was Finally going beyond the yaoi dichotomy? to make someone subby AND dommy? Was i SO swept up that the "cringe vampire roleplay" bypassed my eyerolling sensor?!?!?!

i've got a single nervous bead of sweat making its way down my back and it's cuz of the very simple combo of hole/temperature/neck

so while i'm taking another impromptu wary pause , stewing at how DEVASTATED i may or may not be idk whatever it's not a big deal that the neck bite isn't shown on screen

LOGIC: that makes sense. animating and drawing that separate pose in this setup would be way too much work for 2 sentences. HORNY: TEAR INTO HIM. SUCK HIM DRY. LET ME

SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

yeah for real. I'M feeling attacked right now. eiden trying his best not to splort from the three-pronged feel-up (struggling like an amorous salmon up a waterfall) when suDNDEnly

......?

*RECORD SCRATCH* ?!?!?!?!?!??!?????!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!???!!!!!??????????????????????? ?????!?!?!?!?????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????E?!?FKFOO>>>>?VFF??A""????":??"??????!?!!??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

👆

WHAT WAS THAT?

*runs into the adjacent room like it's a reality tv privacy booth* *slams the door and stares incredulously at the camcorder* *points toward the room i just left*

IS THAT ALLOWED?

Is Yakumo legally allowed to say "fuck"?????

*falls into a hushed and baffled whisper* i don't have enough Japanese comprehension to parse exactly what yakumo said oh god i wish i had the comprehension is this a translator liberty? is it real? because if the original speech was actually more reserved but the translators were like "bro that ain't sexy. just write FUCK"?? i guess that wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility? but if yakumo legitimately said "fuck" ...... AND dropped the honorific from eiden's name?! .......... huh! ohhhhhhhh *ruffles my hair out of confusion* did he really say that? i mean ok he's a grown ass snan i shouldnt ' be scandalised like i hear d an infant say FUCK as its first word , 11 months out of the womb ....... *deep breath* ok. don't dwell on it. gotta return to the task at hand. *steadfastly turns the doorknob and returns to my previous location*

so eiden looks like what i feel right now (in the key of: !?!?!?) thankfully the surprise doesn't last long in the face of his shamelessness (blessed be eito), so he tries to repeat after yakumo but yakumo's drilling him so hard that brain mysgh muysh can't really... speak..prororperly

SUHUT THE FUCCK UP YAKUMO I'VE NEVER BEEN SO OFFENDED BY SUCH A SHORT SENTENCE GO AWAY WITH YOUR THIRTY SHADES OF COUNT DOMKUMO PARADING IN HERE THINKIN YOU CAN DISH OUT ORDERS LIKE THSI WHEN YOU'R E NORMALLY A SOBBING MESS BY NOW=====----

*pinches in between my brows* uueugh...... eiden doesn't get to finish his task but they go at it until the screen goes white with that powerful SPLOOSH we all know and love

and yakumo FINALLY breaks character getting juiced released a bit of his control i guess we hear an "uhu" at last. he uses his pathetic wibble to ask eiden for more because he's still hard. of course he is...... mans is never done.......dick ouroboros with the way he never ends.......

BUT THEN EIDEN PULLS A FACE THAT GRABS MY ENTIRE BRAIN AND FLOODS ME WITH SO MUCH AFFECTION

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY JUST LOOK AT HIM SLUTTY BLEP i was having an out-of-body experience i was suddenly going over every BL i've ever played and how none of the protags were ever this unabashedly INTO IT (of course we are only here because we build upon the foundations of our gay ancestors THANK YOU GAYASS SPIRITS OF YORE , ) BUT! i'm experiencing a grand realisation of how far we've come and how eiden being a slutty versatile dweeb enriches my life to untold measures and his stupid cute little ;P thirsty look is going to sustain me for years and also i love it so much i'm going to screenshot it and keep it in my gallery just so i can look at it whenever i think about homophobia existing ever . i love u eiden get that dick and hole forever💖

now that yakumo is all vulnerable and Himself and freed from his edgy persona , he's just pounding into eiden liek 🥺 i'm just a normal snokai right? 🥺😥 so it's ok to act the way i truly want to❓ you'll accept all of me? 😖 i'm not a horrible irredeemable monster ?? 😧💦 you still want me? here?? with you???🥺🥺🥺 i'm allowed to make you feel good??😢?😭?😥 of course eiden affirms all this with a big moany yes (in surprisingly eloquent words despite the state of his anus)

and to top it all off, the room provides a full circle of plot by letting eiden complete his failed "repeat after me" task from before..- with a horny addendum about how he can't get enough of yakumo's dirty expressions, because of course our boy has to get the last word.

ahhh,,, like an epic movie,, it all comes together. loose ends tied and fucklines affirmed. tasks fulfilled; pervert's journey complete;; we, the audience, can go home with satisfied closure.

after-credits sceNe: when the post-nut clarity hits yakuei, i am brick'd with overwhelming concern about eiden's leg. how has it NOT cramped this entire time, being held up like that.? what was that? at least 15 minutes?! of lifting up one leg and spreading it so wide? damn, boy, is ya potassium that powerful? no calf cramps? nothing? eiden your sexual athleticism is unrivalled. i am in awe.

Note!

When i first watched these rooms, I didn't have headphones. Months later, i finally got to watch the scenes WITH SOUND. and i was so very pleased to hear that yakumo's voice in R5 was a nice middle ground between his suuuuper drawly heavy cosplay mode R2 angstvoice,, and his regular uhuu soft voice. it's definitely more himself, but with the added confidence of roleplaying ehuehue so it's just nice!! to hear him being more secure in himself!! and enjoying the situation!! but also teasing eiden and enjoying the power plays?? yay! near the end he returns almost fully to his regular voice due to , you know, whiny pleady 🥺 feels-too-good things afoot and that just .... upped the affection for me.... ugh... so he CAN do both......

in future watches, i eventually take the time to look at yakumo's face instead of eiden's. . .

and i do NOT like where my subsequent thoughts go

oh no he's hot.......................

WE RETURN TO REALITY. IT IS SOME TIME BETWEEN MARCH AND MAY (2023). I HAVE AT LAST UNLOCKED ALL OF CP YAKUMO'S ROOMS. I AM IN MY ROOM AND I AM SHOOKETHED. Shortly, I seek out Friend B, the catalyst for this train of horror and realisation. I tell them the task is done. Eventually, i give them my phone so they can watch their beloved vampire yakumo rooms. I couldn't even hand it over with the derisive scoff I THOUGHT I would show. the look of absolute dismissal that used to appear whenever someone mentioned crimson phantom yakumo. No, i handed it over with thinly concealed amusement . perhaps even excitement, that someone would soon share in something that so pleasantly surprised me. A part of me wished for them to return my phone with a disappointed "tch". to tell me that, oh, that wasn't very good after all. you were right. i could have missed out on vampire yakumo and lost nothing. Unfortunately, they returned my phone later that evening . their eyes glittered with the glee of someone whose hopes were beautifully fulfilled. "OH MY FUCKING GOD I KNEW it was gonna be amazing!", they bubbled. "Yeah." is all i could say... . I spend the following weeks slowly falling victim to yakumo's charms. By June, I am putting up posters of him all over my room while talking about how much i hate him.

SUMMARY: like nuca itself, it started as a joke and now the quences have conned. i'm suffering the cussions, reperfully. eiden did NOT help. he was beautiful and amazing from every angle and that added to the positive associations with these rooms,, and by extension, yakumo. and now? now i hate this snakeboy for what's he's done to me. i'm p sure he's actively moving the goalposts on my preferences as i type. i'm scared. he has too much power . that this mushy noodle would subvert tropes by following the old kabedon-seme script then DO IT AGAIN by hitting me with the SUBVERT REVERSE BEAM #2 and now i dream about railing him under the moonlight.

it was all downhill from that accursed roleplay. eiden's a gayteway drug. he fkoin got me. and now yakumo's got me too

Hello! I’ve been kind of a silent reader for a while, but I’m trying to show some more love to my favorite accounts more. I really just wanted to say that I really love your account and your OC. I also think it’s really cool how you still find time to post content even with university work. I’m not sure what your major is, but I still find it really admirable that you put out such good writing while also juggling university work, probably a job, and a social life. You also post super regularly, and I always look forward to when I’m able to read your new content!

With that being said, take care of yourself and good luck with university! I’m a junior in college rn and it’s taking everything in me to fight the burn out😔

Hi there! This is genuinely so nice, I wasn't having the best evening (I also worked the closing shift) so this was the last thing I expected to find in my inbox but this is so sweet 🥹Thank you for taking time to say all of this!! 🥰

I've never said anything too personal on there except for revealing my name, but I'm actually a second year clinical psychology major (you can see where Hima's new major came from 🤭), and you're most definitely right, I do have a part time job! My mind has an incredibly active imagination which really helps with the regular posting (except for drabbles which take more time) and seeing you all enjoying whatever I put out makes me feel so happy. I was actually pretty shy to interact with people through asks (or anonymous messages) at first but you're all so nice and supportive!

I completely understand what you're saying, first year was very overwhelming, but it's all about finding the rhythm that fits you! Since it's not high school where everything is already structured for you, you can finally find what works for you; what type of studying, what schedule, just try to take full advantage of what free time you have (play a game you like, watch videos that really interest you, GO OUTSIDE AND WALK - I promise it genuinely helps). If you're burning out then taking things one step at a time is the best solution. Create schedules for yourself where you give yourself certain days/time slots to study or complete assignments and during those times focus fully on that course/task, not whatever else you have going on and realize that grades DO NOT MAKE YOU. In first year one of my professors said something that really marked me; she said that in university/college, a 70 is amazing because of how prone people are to burn out, how much they have going on, how hard the work is, etc. In first year you don't necessarily have to pass with flying colors, just pass with enough to make yourself think "you know what, yeah I did it" (I'm not usually very good at voicing advice but hopefully it helped at least a bit! 🩷)

Please take care of yourself, HYDRATE WELL, EAT WELL and get plenty of rest!

As a Guy who Fixes Machines for a living, but unfortunately doesn't have Much experience with engines, *but* has read a Ton about them: please tell me about steam engines and/or their Repair Quirks and Logistics. Infodump Away :chinhands:

I'm going to be honest with you - this is one of the most flattering asks I've ever received in my 14+ years on this website.

Steam locomotives seem pretty overwhelming at first because, as you'd expect, there's a lot of moving parts, and they're actually huge. Like many large animals, people often don't realize how big they can actually get until they're in the presence of one. The one I drove, Strasburg #90, weighs in at 212,000 lbs - and she's smaller than a lot of the active steam locomotives operating today. 106 tons is nothing to sneeze at, and she's still considered smaller.

You probably don't need this in layman's terms, but I'm going to try to keep the explanations easy to understand in case anyone who doesn't work with machines reads this.

How do the beasts run?

Continuing the metaphor of these things basically being really large animals, you have to feed and water them. Early steam locomotives ran on wood, but as time went on the most common fuels became coal and oil, and today some can even run clean on vegetable oil or torrefied biomass. The fact that they need to be fed and watered fairly regularly is why there's always at least two people in the locomotive cab - you've got an engineer driving and a fireman keeping the beast fed and monitoring the water levels in the boiler.

This is a diagram of a fire tube boiler from Wikipedia. Steam locomotives generally use this type of boiler, which gives them their familiar shape. The fuel is thrown into the firebox on the left of the diagram, and the heat from the fire flows up to the tubes in the boiler. The water in the boiler becomes steam (specifically what's called "wet steam" because it's saturated). The steam rises to the highest point in the boiler, the steam dome at the top. From here, the steam is sent down into a superheater, which dries it out and produces superheated steam, and that's what's directed down to the cylinders to get everything moving. The smokestack on the right of the diagram is where the exhaust gasses are released, giving off that plume of smoke everyone expects to see.

Now that the steam is at the cylinders, the pistons can start pumping and moving the driving rods on the driving wheels (the big ones). Here's an animated gif of that process, again from Wikipedia.

At this point, it's basically like any other engine with pistons - the pistons get pumping and the machine starts operating. This whole section of the locomotive is referred to as the running gear, and includes the valve gear, connecting rods, brake gear, wheelsets, axleboxes, and springing.

Essentially, it's a steam engine with wheels that is capable of pulling incredible amounts of weight if everything is done correctly. Your average steam locomotive is still stronger than your average diesel or electric locomotive is. Depending on what you needed your steam locomotive to do, the size of the driving wheels would differ - locomotives built for high speed tend to have really large drive wheels, whilst locomotives designed to go slower but pull more weight have smaller drivers for better adhesion and traction.

Maintenance?

As expected, since they have a lot of moving parts, steam locomotives need a lot of active maintenance. They're checked frequently, have mandated annual inspections, and are required by the Federal Railroad Administration in the United States to have a more thorough inspection every 1,472 days of active service - so it's basically 15 years or 1,472 days of operation, whichever comes first. 90, the locomotive I drove at Strasburg, is currently undergoing her 1,472-day inspection as I write this post and she'll hopefully be back in operation for her 100th birthday next year.

One of the things that's unique about steam locomotive maintenance is that the boiler regularly has to be cleaned out, which is why the boilerplate on the front has hinges - that thing's a door! This job was more dangerous historically because boilers were often insulated with asbestos, but pretty much anything operating today has had any asbestos removed or wasn't built with it in the first place. This website has a really good explanation of the process of cleaning out and fixing up a locomotive boiler for a 1,472 day inspection, complete with photos!

In terms of steam locomotive shops, I'm biased towards Strasburg because I grew up going there all the time, but they really do perform incredible work. Late last year, one of their locomotives, #475, had a run-in with a crane left on the track due to a misthrown switch, and her smokebox took some damage. Fortunately, the damage was minor, and they were able to get her repaired in a mere 96 hours.

She now looks like this:

They opted to braze weld her and didn't smooth it out as a reminder to crews to stay vigilant, so she now has some really cool battle scars.

I'm not as well-versed in repair since I don't have hands-on experience with it (yet), but once I can start volunteering I'll hopefully have some more stuff to talk about since I'm hoping to learn to work with these machines more closely! (And drive. Drive all the time. Drive forever.)

[billythesimp]

Welcome to my Inter-Knot Page for Requests and General guidelines for sending anything through my ask box. I'll try to get everything in order here to make it an easier process.

If I'm missing anything or you have any further questions, please talk to me and I will give you my take/word on the situation. If it's important, I'll add more into the guidelines as we go along!

Thank you guys for checking it out and thank you for your patronage!

⋈ Falu

Character Count

For Requests, I'll do a max of 3-4 Characters per requests.

Please list the characters you want to ask and as for the reader insert, please clarify the basic things like gender if they have one/species if their is a specific prompt you would like to see.

i.e fem!reader / father!reader / bangboo!reader

if not specified ahead, I'll usually go straight to a gn!reader. Everything will be tagged properly either way but please let me know in your request to best fulfill your wishes!

▿

Prompts

For Requests, I'll do scenarios, headcanons, AUs, single-character interactions, drabbles, and detailed prompts.

That being said, I would like to note that anything following any NSFW will be handled differently. In fact, I won't be taking direct NSFW requests as I don't feel confident that I can deliver your wildest fantasies to the best of my capabilities. I do have my own ideas for future content which I will share and might mention/hint at some sexual content here and there, but that does mean I'll consent to accepting any NSFW/general smut content. 1*

Anything with established relationships like even poly relationships (or prompts including harems types content), I will try but I'll admit, not my area of expertise.

If a Prompt becomes popular and becomes somewhat of a series on the blog, I will add a tag for the specific request and add it to the tags list on the intro post for easy access to said requests.

▿

Interacting with Falu

I would like to state that I am down to talk about characters, simp over our favorites, and making friends in the community. I won't say no to a simple Hi or Hello, I like answering questions and interaction as a whole so feel free to come say hi!

I don't only making writing requests and prompts, I also make characters and draw occasionally so don't be shy to share your own thoughts and ideas! I'm have a ball for a brain, got all these ideas bouncing around.

I would like to state some boundaries as well down below.

One ; I am not a consistent writer as stated before and have a very packed schedule, so please understand that I can't post regularly and/or interact with people. I also am a nervous reck so please be patient.

Two ; I don't mind any form of interactions. Whether it's me, the writer / persona Falu, the Bangboo who I am accompanied by, ButterBoo, or even breaking the fourth wall the OP. Just please be respectful and kind, we can have fun with this until we can't.

Three ; Don't be rude on my blog, please treat everyone with respect. Understandably if you see something you don't like on my page or don't enjoy my writing, I request that you don't interact with it and move on. It works out for everyone and we all can continuing going along.

Four ; I do have the right to reject and refuse any request sent to me. So please don't go spamming my inbox with the same request, or even hit me up in DMS with your request and asking about updates on your request. I will block you if you continue these actions and worst case scenario I will turn Anon off. 2*

1* Especially when it comes the some characters who I see as minors (Corin/Ellen/Koleda/etc.). I don't do Aging-Up Characters content either so don't expect that. Also included in this list of no no's is anything with non-con, r-pe, SA , intense gore, self-harm, or suic-de.

2* I like to leave my ask box open for anon's because I understand if people aren't comfortable or wish to remain anonymous when it comes to interactions and requests, we've all been there when you are spotted by mutuals in the wild when you think you aren't noticed. I respect that choice so please do the same and respect my boundaries so we can have fun together in comfort.

[bluudud985]

Tem bluudud get in NOOOOWWWWW!!!!!!

HELLLOOOO I'm Bluudud. I'm a fictive & while this blog is probably gonna be mostly forsaken do NOT expect it to be exclusively limited to that. My source isn't my only interest. Call me ooc and I'll bite your head off

I'd consider myself pretty canon compliant but that being said I am also 17 and have a bunch of stuff going on that in-game bluudud definitely doesn't. Idrc if you ask me abt source, if I'm uncomfortable I just won't respond. Don't take it personally

Other Bluudud fictives or kins are good to interact idm

[ Btw this intro post is written all proper and stuff because someone said it'd help with readability. I do not type like this regularly I'm very unserious + I use the e -> 3 typing quirk. I add plaintext under the cuts of my posts trust ]

DNI + boundary stuff + tags under the cut

DNI:

Basic stuff, DNI if you're homophobic, transphobic, racist, any of that

If you ship C00lkidd, Pr3typriincess, or myself with each other. Those are my siblings

On the same note DNI if you ship any of us WITH OUR PARENTS. Can't believe I have to say that

IF YOU SUPPORT GENERATIVE AI OF ANY KIND, YES EVEN ROLEPLAY BOTS, GET OFF MY BLOG. This is VERY personal to me

Boundaries:

I do not care about system discourse or whatever, don't bring it up. It makes the majority of my headmates including myself uncomfortable

Please don't joke about the events that happened in Forsaken unless I initiate the joke myself. I'm comfortable talking about them to an extent, but joking is a different thing

Tags:

#bluuchatting -> textposts

#bluupaint -> art tag

#bluumail -> ask tag

#bluuliv3 -> gaming tag, basically any posts I make about the games I play will have this

#sapstr3am -> me yapping abt my family/friends/generally being lame and emotional

More will be added as I continue to post here

#[[3RROR]] -> I'll probably have a general tag for if someone else posts on here, but this tag is specifically for my best friend

Hello, I used to follow you when you were writing regularly and you haven't done that in a while and I was just coming here to say I really miss your fics, nobody writes stuff like you and for male reader and marvel, I know your probably taking a break but I was wondering if you would consider coming back to write something? I never got to request a fic from you and I'd love the chance if your open to it... Sorry again to bother and if your not comfortable with it do you know anyone who writes stuff like you?

Hello! Sorry I only now reply, but my life has been rather busy and I barely have time nowadays. TvT So, now onto the answering here...:

Yeah, I sadly notice that not many write Marvel x Male!Reader fanfics that actually also makes.... OTHER Readers happy, that are a bit different and not always the submissive "Yes, Daddy" type.... (That was a slight joke, don't take it personal guys. Please, I don't mind anyone being like that just a bit humor is sometimes needed) My private life has been rather going downhill recently and with that it is currently rather hard for me to come back, write stuff, post it and such. To add more to the chaos I am currently in, my Motivation has been very low recently and I get easily distracted, just because I am not at my 100% currently. I try to distract myself with other things to get back on my feet, but it barely does anything. It is...not a fun thing to be in currently, but I manage somehow a bit... I don't mind getting requests for now, but nobody can expect me to actually write them for a while, because I myself have no clue when my life will be better once more and less in the state it is in right now. TnT I just always feel bad when I get requests and can't force my Motivation to be with me, so I can write them... I mean you guys want to read them at some point too and I just....can't kick them out as fast as I used to anymore... T-T You didn't bother me at all, don't worry. It's fine to ask and write someone you liked to read the works of before and they suddenly just go MIA for months.... Sadly I don't know anyone who writes the same -or even similar- stuff I do, since most of the ones that DID write and probably knew someone before, long left Tumblr aswell. I have no clue where they all went either. I have been rather distant here for a while and stuff, so I am unsure if there is a new platform/website they went to or something... T-T

[tryingahandinholdingapen]

reblogged a post about this a while ago (or possibly threw it in the queue, in which case, apologies it will turn up eventually) but I woke up mad about this for some reason so I'm going to complain

it really does bug me in books/movies/other media and in fanfiction where they establish that god(s) exist in that setting, AND often ALSO establish that said god(s) do have a tendency to do like, noticable, provable things that any person could theoretically see for themselves if they were in the right place at the right time. or sometimes the god(s) even regularly and predictably do something you can observe (for example responding to prayers or doing Something noticable at the time of a specific festival, etc)..... and yet

And yet, in these same stories, there's often like. fuckall people who actually believe in the god(s) of that setting??

like okay so the post I reblogged/queued was actually more focussed on "why do these people not have noticable organised RELIGION if they definitely have GOD(s)" but for me it's the belief thing that bugs me more. like. a lot more

if there's observable proof that god(s) exist then what the fuck is your reason for not believing in them? and how on earth would that ever become the MAJORITY OPINION? you have proof! you have proof, right there! what do you MEAN you don't believe in the god(s) that you've for centuries had proof DO exist and DO (to varying extents of anount/regularity) intervene in your affairs??

it just annoys me because it makes no sense! I can only assume it's due to creators who irl don't believe in god(s) copy-pasting that belief to the media they create without really....thinking about the implications...

I'm not even asking for a decrease in "media where god(s) provably exist and yet for some reason the overwhelming majority of people still don't believe in them, bafflingly"

I'm just asking for creators to take like, two seconds to give us a passing line about WHY they don't believe in god(s), given that there IS PROOF THEY EXIST AND DO STUFF in these settings. For example: if it's a setting that has magic, or that has technology that the majority of the population doesn't really understand, it would be entirely reasonable to at some point drop in something about "yeah, the god(s) supposedly exist and did (insert proof here) but come on, everyone knows that was faked. with the kinds of things magic/technology can do, do they really expect us to believe it's GOD(s) and not someone real good at magic/technology trying to string us all along?"

Or alternatively something like "Ah yes, the god(s). the god(s) that have never helped me personally nor anyone else I know. the god(s) of an organised religion whose political and social power relies massively on us believing everything their priests/equivalent tell us about who+what the god(s) are and what those god(s) want from us. those god(s)? are we sure these god(s) aren't completely made up for some political agenda? cos I sure as hell ain't"

or "well the last 'proof' we had was (50 or more years ago), and nobody bothered to really write it down clearly, and some of the oral accounts contradict each other and....well. maybe god(s) exist. or maybe tales got altered and blown out of proportion over time. completely normal thing to happen tbh"

or even a somewhat widespread sense of "okay yes fine I admit that god(s) exist, there is proof, we even have (some vague grasp/an extremely detailed idea) of what they want from us mortals. however, please consider: just because I believe they exist and do things doesn't mean I have to believe IN them. what did they ever do for me? most of the time when they do intervene it just fucks things up further - often that doesn't seem to be on purpose, but, well....those priest types like to tell us all the time that us mere mortals could never understand the god(s) and....has anyone ever considered that maybe the god(s) don't understand us mere mortals either? maybe it's not even malicious, maybe they just don't really understand how to help us or get us to follow the 'right path' or whatever. so yeah sure the god(s) exist and sometimes they do things but really I think it would be for the best if they didn't. I think maybe the god(s) should stick to their own business and we should stick to ours"

or on a more individual level, a severely peeved off Chosen One/Saint/etc whose like "yes, the god(s) exist. yes they do things. yes I believe in them. you know what else though? I fucking hate their guts. look at this shit. look at what they did to me/what they expect me to do. you want me to go temple/church/etc? want me to pray to them? fuck off. fuck off, fuck you, and fuck your stupid god(s)"

just like, anything. give me anything. literally ANY reason that the media you've created considers "blatantly ignores something humans historically seem to care about a lot, and in this setting actually have abundant proof of existing"

if you give me a reason for it I'll accept it! but every time I read/watch/hear some variety of "yes there is a lot of proof that god(s) exist, no I still don't believe in them despite said proof, yes this is a common belief to hold" it vexes me a little more. like I barely noticed it at first but every time it comes up it annoys me more than it did at the last time and at some point it's going to escalate up to a real pet peeve and eventually may even escalate all the way up to 'prompts me to abandon that media immediately and entirely, unreasonably pissed off for the rest of the day'

Howdy! I'm going to be doing an introduction of sorts. I realize I probably should have done this FOREVER ago, but anyways...

Here's the basics! Some things are in my bio, others aren't, so here we go!

Name : Charlie

Age: Under 18 (for now)

Gender: Gender Apathetic!

Pronouns: Any, I couldn't care less

What to expect from this blog:

I'm into a few Fandoms, including Hazbin Hotel, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, FNAF, and a few others. I, more times than not, am posting art related to those fandoms, and sometimes even my Original Characters!

Now here's the more important part, commissions and art trades!

Commissions: CLOSED! I don't have a PayPal / Cashapp / Zelle / any mobile banking, so therefore I won't be doing commissions.

Art Trades: OPEN! I LOVE doing art trades!

RULES FOR COMMISSIONS:

I can't do them, so therefore please don't request them!

RULES FOR ART TRADES:

- Follow me before interacting with me to do an art trade. I will follow you back!

- No empty profiles or profiles that haven't been posted on in a long time (I'm talking at least a year if not more) If I can see your profile is at least somewhat regularly posted on, and that there's at least 2 or 3 posts, I can believe you're potentially trustable!

- NO NSFW / ANTI ANYTHING / SEVERE GORE / HATE ART IN THE ART TRADE! You will be promptly blocked and reported for showing any reference art / trading art with that type of content!

WHEN YOU DM ME FOR COMMISSIONS:

I will redirect you to this post, along with an explanation I cannot do commissions. If you persist, you will be reported, flagged, and blocked!

WHEN YOU DM ME FOR ART TRADE:

- Make sure you follow me before you interact! I will follow you back and we can continue from there

- If you have art posts on your profile, I will use that as a reference for what your art style is. I don't discriminate based on ones style, though!

- I am fine with most things (furry, humanoid, human, or just any creature in general) for what you'd like me to draw, just send me 2-4 reference photos of what you'd like! I'll do the same for you!

- The time for when the art is to be traded will be discussed directly. Not everyone's schedule is the same! If you need more time, you let me know!

- More than likely I will send you updates on the art I plan to trade with you (what you requested) I will be sending the sketch layer, the lineart, and the flat colors. The final sending of said art will be fully shaded and rendered! If you are not happy with how something looks, let me know ASAP so I can make it closer to your liking!

Okay, I think that's everything for now! Bye-bye!

In the Teen Wolf fandom, it seems like peeps only love the big-names, the ones who regularly return to post content versus people who joined in the last few years.

As someone who has been here a while, what's your take on this? Should new people stop trying? Because that's what I'm feeling.

Hey friend!

I just wanna say, before I really get to my answer, I'm kind of touched that you see me having been around for a while!! I'm definitely not what I'd consider a big-name and I know my blog is mostly just my little corner full of stuff I curate with my own creations or reblogs of other people's but you see me 😊 I'm also for sure not tapped into the fandom itself like some folks I follow. I just doot my snoot in my little archive of teen wolf shenanigans and try to maintain friendships with anyone who wants to interact with me (via asks, messages, or tags, good golly I wanna hug anyone who interacts in tags lol and I for sure recognize when ppl come back).

I typed a way longer response that you may not have wanted, all to just say I would hate to see new people stop trying!! I adore that teen wolf is still pulling people despite it being off air and potentially not getting more movies (whether or not that's what most people want). I think fandoms need fresh air continually too. No two people will experience the show or content 100% the same way and have every single response be the same. Just with the two cakes mindset of creation, there are multiple cakes for how we all digest the show and they're all delicious. I carved out my own little corner here because I wanted organization for myself, and I create largely for myself. Any interaction I get, I fucking adore, I cannot impress that enough lol. I just never really expect it bc I know I do my own thing here with stuff like Multiamory May moodboards. Rarepairs and polyamory and trans headcanons just aren't everyone's cup of tea and I stopped trying to be recognized for what I "target" when I know my quality isn't 100% and I'm just vibing to my own weirdness instead of being super put together about it. I've definitely flickered in and out of the fandom when it comes to engagement too - like how last year (or year before? idk, time is confusing) I was running regular events but currently I just don't have the energy/passion in the same way.

If you really want to be seen more, esp if you make your own posts/content, utilize tags, even if you're hella lazy with it like me. I try to always use #twedit no matter what, in addition to #twfemslash and #twrarepair when applicable. Those go on the radar of people who fill the queues of some "big" blogs that do a bunch of reblogging just to have continual content out there. I also feel like I got a foot in via a couple of my discord servers, mainly Teen Wolf Legacy, and making a couple too (one for Scott shipping, one for teen wolf femslash; others i know of included pecific Derek-positive ones, a Stiles shipping one). That absolutely increased my reach, because I could share my stuff with people who specifically wanted to get pinged for, say Allison/Stiles content as an example. Idk that my following blew up or anything, I'm still a relatively small teen wolf blog. But it did make it easier to grow into my niche here. It also made me realize how big the fandom is. Some might only watch for or engage with a particular ship or character, while others like me do so for pretty much anyone.

This was still lengthy, I'm sorry. You caught me after work when my brain is like solely focused on decompression via fixation and tumblr is often a source for that. Please don't be discouraged from trying, and if you feel comfortable coming directly to me I could possibly point you in the direction of some other teen wolf blogs with similar interests! Big-names are hella daunting and it still blows my mind some of the ones I always sort of looked up to also just have some nerd behind them that I can talk to (even if I feel like im annoying them lmao). Feel free to talk with me more either on or off anon too, I'm pretty much always here to some extent. I love new people so fucking much, I'm just not engaged enough to always see you 💜💜💜💜

me, regularly: so glad we're past the seme-and-uke thing

fandom, occasionally: no, we've just changed how we refer to it, we still feel just as strongly as we did before

Hey what’s this murderbot stuff you talk about all the time? It seems neat

It is The Murderbot Diaries, a series of sci-fi (mostly) novellas by Martha Wells! :D The protagonist is a "construct," a semi-organic robot/cyborg made of both mechanical parts and cloned human tissue; it specifically is a SecUnit, a type of construct designed for security work on the Corporation Rim, a part of space owned and operated entirely by mega-corporations that use people as serf/slave labor and thus need non-rebellious, pre-programmed security to run herd on them.

The theory is that SecUnits are simply equipment, and Corporation Rim dogma basically treats them as less people than humans (which it, frankly, also often treats as not-particularly-people unless powerful enough), and they're controlled by "governor modules" that punish them if they take any unapproved actions. The dominant narrative about constructs is that, without their governor modules, they'll run amok and murder people.

Murderbot a) is very much a person, though it has some trouble coping with that fact, b) disabled its governor module after its bad code made them run amok, c) has not in fact run amok murdering people since, and d) is in fact spending most of its time watching media while it continues to do its job. Literally all it wants in life, when we first meet it, is to be left alone to secretly watch TV inside its own head. #Relatable.

The series starts with Murderbot finding people willing to treat it as a person and starting to escape the role for which it's been designed and the cruelty of the Corporation Rim, and continues on into a lot of grappling with how to exist as an independent being, learning to form its own identity, dealing with people's expectations of it (whether hostile or well-meant), and so on. It makes friends! It learns and grows as a person! It deals with its issues, sort of, and learns that sometimes dealing with those issues means asking people to accommodate it and sometimes it means accommodating them and both are reasonable to do and expect.

The books are first-person POV, and Murderbot is a very snarky narrator; in part due to the mostly-novella format, each entry is very tightly plotted, flows very quickly, and is heavy on fast, fun action. The other characters and Murderbot's relationship with them are also wonderful, and I in particular enjoy seeing Murderbot gradually develop friendships, entirely unaware and/or in denial the whole time.

My mom bounced off the books initially but then fell in love with the audiobooks and thinks the narrative style works better that way, and the narrator for them is extremely good, so if that's a way you enjoy engaging with first-person POVs I will recommend that as well!

cleric: can I make a Medicine check to see how he died?

me: you don't need to make a check-

cleric: please! I haven't used Medicine once yet

me: okay, go ahead

cleric: [rolls an 8] ...I can't tell much, can I

me: well, honestly, the DC on decapitation is very low, you can tell how he died by the way his head is not connected to his body

My #1 post of 2022

woke up this morning to a comment on a fic saying they hoped I didn’t mind them commenting on such an old fic, and the fic isn’t even a year old, so I’m going to reiterate: I can’t speak for every single fanfic writer in the world, but I don’t know a single one myself who wouldn’t be thrilled to get comments on years-old fanfic! there is no deadline! it honestly made my day
