A slightly unhinged ramble-rant on Chairman Rose and how people are missing the entire point of SWSH.

Like, I keep seeing it pop up--like a fucking rank smell you only detect if you’re in a certain place when the wind is blowing in the certain direction--but man does it not bewilder me. Like, these guys who post tags like ‘Chairman Rose is a bad guy but is not a BAD guy’ or ‘I kind of agreed with Chairman Rose’ are just. Are you high?? Did you entirely miss the point of his character?? Did you completely miss the main plot of SWSH?

I’m going to be talking about some heavy shit (including non-sexual child grooming and non-sexual child predation), so I’m gonna put the rest under a read more, let me just say that the theme of SWSH is the relationship between adults and children on their Pokemon journeys, the responsibilities adults have towards children, and what happens when that relationship is abused.

First off, before I get some know-it-all coming at me about how there’s no evidence that Rose is a child predator or a groomer, let me just say there is. Is he a Chris Hansen ‘take a seat for me’ groomer?? No, he’s not, because child grooming is not purely a sexual thing.

Per a very informative article:

“Grooming can be sexual, romantic, financial or for criminal or terrorism purposes, and can target both children and adults. The common aspect is that a perpetrator manipulates a victim by building trust and rapport. The key to grooming is a power dynamic within the relationship: age, gender, physical strength, economic status or another factor.”

Now, with that out of the way, I’m not going to go into shit that’s super obvious to anyone with eyes, but Rose is a serial child groomer. Like, his most obvious victim is Leon, and it’s really wild that people can’t see it?? Like, Leon obviously comes from a fucked-up home situation with a mother who’s absent and neglectful at best (and the people who don’t seem to realize this REALLY confuse me). Like, he has canonically raised his little brother in a house with three adults that could have done the job for him, and the anime literally stated that he was so busy raising Hop and taking care of household chores that he could barely interact with other kids. He was endorsed by Chairman Rose at an age that is implied to be at least two years younger than the average Gym Challenger, and--per the sub of the PokeAni--Rose literally raised him from the moment he became Champion.

(Where was Leon and Hop’s mother during this, you ask? Obviously being terrible at home, since despite Leon being run ragged for all of his life and rarely being home, he still somehow raised his little brother. Let that sink in.)

So Leon has spent his entire life being moulded into Rose’s delusion of the Hero of Galar for the sole purpose of sacrificing himself to defeat Eternatus to stave off an energy crisis that will happen in a millennium and probably would be averted with solar power. THE SUB IN THE POKEANI LITEARLLY HAS ROSE TELLING LEON THAT HE HAS GROOMED HIM FOR THE EXACT PURPOSE OF TAMING ETERNATUS. I’M NOT MAKING THIS UP. I WILL PROVIDE SCREENSHOTS IF ASKED.

Does he know Leon may likely fucking die in the attempt? He sure does, because he’s already started to work on grooming Leon’s replacements! In the game, Bede is a trainer who came from a neglectful home situation who was noticed by the Chairman and given his endorsement for the Gym Challenge wait hold on that sounds really familiar.

Really, REALLY familiar.

Rose’s ploy with taking away Bede’s gym challenger endorsement after Bede literally did what he asked him to was a clear manipulation tactic, and if it hadn’t been for Opal intervening (and she ABSOLUTELY has Rose’s number and you can’t convince me otherwise), the tactic likely would have worked, because Bede would have done anything to get his endorsement back.

(Also Oleana is absolutely the fall girl set up to look like an obstructive villain while Rose can maintain his veneer of innocence. That’s a topic for another day tho.)

AND THEN. in the anime, he flat out tries to do this with Ash. AND IN THE GAME, HE TRIES TO DO THIS WITH THE MC, LIKE BEDE IS HIS PLAN B AND THE PC IS HIS PLAN C. However, the only child Rose has regular chances to interact with who DOES NOT get the manipulation treatment is Hop. Correct me if I’m wrong, but the Chairman always tries to pull shit with you when Hop isn’t around, and the two times he DOES interact with Hop are at the very end of the game where Leon’s been forced into trying to stop the apocalypse and after the Opening Ceremony.

What’s different about the Opening Ceremony, though? LEON IS STANDING RIGHT OVER ROSE’S SHOULDER SMILING STEPFORDLY. Which brings me to my next point: why Rose pulls his end game bullshit.

Leon is now in his early 20s, so he has obviously started to ask for his own agency and say no to things. He has also obviously realized that he does NOT want Rose around his brother, which is why he is fucking looming over Rose’s shoulder when he meets Hop and why Rose almost seems to deliberately avoid Hop for the rest of the game. Rose knows that if he so much as messes with Hop, Leon is going to absolutely turn on him, and he’s already become obstinate enough to be a problem. Rose is losing control of Leon, which is why he’s grooming his potential replacements.

It’s also why Rose LITERALLY HOLDS LEON HOSTAGE IN A TOWER. Like, I am amazed that people haven’t seemed to realize that Hop and the MC were ABSOLUTELY rescuing Leon from a hostage situation. Leon had been on top of the tower with Rose for HOURS at that point, and given Oleana’s personal fucking army and how much Leon clearly did not want to be up there, it’s obvious that there wasn’t a way he could easily extricate himself from the situation. What you do hear from his meeting with Rose sounds a lot like a guy trying to say no while also trying to de-escalate a volatile situation: almost like a victim to their abuser oh wait.

(Oleana also says that the reason she wants to defeat you and Hop is to break Leon’s spirit so he won’t have the strength to say no to the Chairman anymore. Like, that’s literally in game. It’s dialogue.)

So yeah. You’re rescuing a prince from a tower who’s being held hostage by an evil king trying to use the prince’s special power for nefarious purposes. This game is full of fairy tale metaphors. Like, a ton.

When you and Hop show up, you basically force Rose to let Leon go so as to not look like a complete fucking monster or cause a scandal, and Leon basically very politely tells Rose to ‘fuck off’ when he leaves.

So Rose--this narcissistic, megalomaniacal child groomer, who’s basically been shut down by the lynch pin of his plan--does the absolute most rational thing and RELEASES THE APOCALYPSE DEMON OUT OF SPITE. He literally says on a screen in front of Galar that oh no, his releasing Eternatus and causing the Second Darkest Day is actually all LEON’S fault for being so unreasonable and unrealistic. It’s manipulation. It’s emotional abuse. It’s Rose punishing his victim for saying no. It’s Rose throwing a tantrum because Leon told him to wait another week before doing something about something that would happen in a millennium.

Bede made a fool of Rose doing exactly what Rose and Oleana wanted him to do, so he punished him. Leon said no, so he punished him, and punished all of Galar while he was at it. He’s not doing shit for the good of Galar. He’s doing it for himself.

See, the game’s story exists to debate the relationship between adults and children in the Pokemon world. For generation after generation of games, children as young as ten have gone out in the big wide world with nothing but their starter and a Pokedex, and the adults they have met have never had any poor intentions towards them specifically. Yes, there’s all the evil teams and blah blah blah, but they weren’t targeting you, the child MC. You were just caught up in their messes. SWSH is the first game to show that no, there are adults who will try to take advantage of you because you are a child, and there are good adults who will try to protect you.

Opal protects Bede. Leon protects you and Hop. Leon has obviously gotten old enough to realize that what Rose did to him was wrong, and he tries so fucking hard through the whole game to protect you and his little brother from his boss’s machinations and all the bad shit happening in the world. I know people bitch about being ‘railroaded’ and not allowed to participate in the ‘plot’ until the end, but that’s the point. The good adults are trying to protect the children from the bad adults trying to harm them, and the children intervene only when the adults die trying to save them. Children should be allowed to adventures and have fun, but they should also be protected and shielded from shit that can harm them and shit they’re not old enough to understand, and this game--for better or for worse--is trying to strike that balance.

One last, very important thing. Leon’s life had been micromanaged and controlled from the moment he became Champion by Chairman Rose. He had to become all things to Galar--its fucking policeman, it’s regional hero, it’s unbeatable symbol of perfection, it’s hero, and--almost--its messiah--and when the MC becomes a Champion? He doesn’t hesitate to become Chairman, and he tells you--the new Champion--that your job is to explore and have fun. He doesn’t ask you to do sponsorship deals. He lets you do matches and tournaments at your own leisure. He calls you politely to ask if you want to do the Galarian Star Tournament. He doesn’t even know your PHONE NUMBER and I think about that a lot.

The game is about the responsibilities adults have towards children. It’s about how you don’t have to be the main character to be the hero. It’s about how you can’t and shouldn’t do everything alone. It’s about how child predation and abuse don’t have to be obvious or ‘traditional’ to be real and a threat. Finally, as Leon demonstrates so poignantly, it’s about breaking the cycle of abuse.

And THAT’S why SWSH is one of the best stories--if not THE best--that the Pokegames have ever told, regardless of its faults and the National Dex and a berry tree looking a little weird.

Heya... Mars here. This is a little awkward, but Miss Cynthia seems to think it's a good idea, so... FAQ??

Q: Team Galactic? The doomsday cult?

A: It's not a cult anymore! We've been busting our butts in that court mandated therapy!

Q: Why are you still around?

A: We just want to fix things. The Champion and Cynthia did a really big favor, keeping us out of Forever Jail. Plus, some of us didn't have anywhere else to go. There's only about... 33 of us now?

Q: Why is Mars running this shebang? Wasn't she like, bottom of the totem pole.

A: Rude. But true. Saturn is technically in charge, but he's... not been doing too well. Can't blame him, really. It's a miracle he lasted this long. Jupiter went to Hoenn to work at some space place because we kind of ran out of money. So that leaves little old Mars! Jupiter thinks shes superior still, but I'm not the one with a live in Interpol agent.

Q: What do you even do?

A: Classic community service stuff. Also, working on reuniting stolen Pokémon. And cleaning up the lakes after the whole bomb thing. That was Jupiters idea, by the way. NOT mine. Oh, and about half the grunts have day jobs, for previously stated broke reasons. Saturn does some online coding stuff that I don't understand in the slightest.

Q: Is Cyrus alive?

A: I don't know.

cassini starts another blog, part... 11??? main blog @plasmaapologist blah blah blah. i could use this app to get an autism diagnosis i think

this blog is based on an au of my own dppt interpretation/au. it is canon based but not compliant. ye have been warned. blog will deal with heavy topics from time to time, all will be tagged

- the plot was that of platinum, for the most part

few things to note:

- this blog takes place very closely after dppt. only the events of kanto, johto, and hoenn have happened. asks relating to things in the other games will be answered, but will likely be met with confusion

- the start of this blog is 5-6 months after the events of the game

- charon does not exist. hes stupid and i dont like him. 👎

- lucas is the champion, dawn is the professors assistant

- dawn is probably one of my most heavily headcanoned characters. just a warning ♡

- despite being based on platinum, lucas failed to capture giratina. he later gained the trust of dialga, though their relationship is more of friends than pokemon and master.

- mars and saturn genuinely have good intentions. however please feel free to accuse them of otherwise. (jupiters only acting good to stay out of jail)

reoccurring characters blah blah blah. you know them but i thrust my headcanon upon ye

mars: she/her, 20. main poster. interim leader while saturn recovers. trying her best

saturn: he/him, 26. may occasionally post. not currently acting as leader after a mental breakdown, but still handles finances and does announcements when he can.

jupiter: she/her, 28. currently working at mossdeep space center in hoenn under the very careful eye of interpol. she never actually cared about team galactic, but its keeping her out of jail...

---------------------------------------------------

lucas: he/him, 14. current champion of sinnoh. has been helplessly busy since becoming acting champion. someone give this man a break, please. hes got a bit of a hero complex now. enjoys hanging out with barry and dawn when hes free, which often puts him around team galactic when hes with the latter.

dawn: she/her, 13. professor rowan's assistant. a quiet girl with a melancholic side; her real passion is art, but no one seems to appreciate it. has an odd but strong friendship with mars, and likes helping out.

barry: he/him, 14. impatient as ever. does not get why his friends want to help those galactic freaks so much!? why can't we beat them up and put them in jail forever?!?! main goal: blow up beat his father in battle

cynthia: she/her, 34. former champion of sinnoh. trying to enjoy her newfound free time, but she's been tasked with keeping an eye on team galactic. she secretly doesn't mind, and has developed a friendship with saturn. she wants to visit unova sometime soon, but she's just so busy...

professor rowan: he/him, old. early 60s? haven't decided. it's the professor, man. pretty much dawns main family, since her actual one doesn't seem fond of her. he doesn't really like her hanging with former terrorists, but also, doesn't want to control her.

Hosie+fankids Pokemon AU

I AM WEAK FOR AUs, WEAK I SAY😭😓😞

Anyway here's a list of Hosie+my Hosie fankids's Pokemon team and the explanations for why I picked the specific Pokemon for them under the cut bc this got long and I don't wanna spam the tag with constantly long-ass posts all the time (especially when those long-ass posts are AU specific lmao rip)🙏

And who knows mayhaps I'll draw a Hosie Pokemon AU in the future one day. Gotta have a point of reference for me to look back to👀

Okay, enough rambling from me, hope you enjoy this long list of Hosie Pokemon AU and also so sorry for all the reading under the cut

//

Hope Mikaelson

Delphox

Lycanroc Midnight

Gliscor

Garchomp

Absol

Alolan Ninetails

Hope’s first three Pokemon represent her Tribrid side. Delphox = witch, Lycnroc Midnight = werewolf, Gliscor = vampire. I don’t think there’s really much need to go into detail as to why I picked these three Pokemon for Hope 😛 

For the other three, Garchomp, Absol, Alolan Ninetails, it’s all about aesthetics, really. Garchomp, I found out, is a pseudo-legendary, so I think it fits her pretty well being a Tribrid. I mean, aside from her eldest daughter Lana, there’s no one else in the supernatural world that’s a Tribrid like her. Plus, Hope with a Dragon type on her team is pretty dope if you ask me. 

Absol has this infamous connection to disaster. And… Well… I don’t need to explain too much about why I picked Absol for Hope, do I 👀? Plus also it gives me this like, lone-wolf type of vibe which fits Hope’s vibes a bit.

Finally, Alolan Ninetails! Look, I don’t know why, but I associate ice/snow with Hope. It just somehow happened that way (maybe also because Hope=ice Josie=fire and the typical ice/fire tropes in some ships 👀). But Alolan Ninetails is also majestic as fuck, and that’s also Hope. She is also majestic as fuck and she deserves to have a gorgeous and majestic Pokemon on her team.

Josie Saltzman

Sunflora

Spiritomb

Mismagius

Houndoom

Haterene

Leafeon

The two Grass types, Sunflora and Leafeon, in Josie’s team made me think of her affiliation with plants and I do not remember if that is a canon thing that Josie really loves plants, or if it was a fanon thing that was created through, well, the fandom. But I thought it worked regardless

For Mismagius and Spiritomb, I picked them specifically to represent Josie’s (Siphoner sorta) witch and her Dark!Josie era on the show. Mismagius obviously being the witch and Spiritomb being Dark!Josie. It helps that Spiritomb is also a Dark type, and it does make me think of when Josie like put all that dark energy into that dark object, so it works!

I picked Houndoom for Josie because of her pyromaniac tendencies teehee 😜 lol I'm half kidding. I did remember there was a moment with her character and fire: Penelope's hair, the confession letter, that one scene where she blows out a little match–I thought it wouldn't be a Josie team if I didn't have a Fire type with her. And the reason for Houndoom specifically is because Houndoom is cool and also part Dark type which ties back to her Dark!Josie era.

Haterene and actually Leafeon too, are because I’m a sucker for giving twins paired Pokemon haha. So while those two are Josie’s, Lizzie’s has Grimmsnarl and Glaceon. Haterene because she also has this fairytale witchy vibe, which I thought was kinda fitting for that one fairytale scene in the show where Hope jumps into Josie’s mind or something to deal with Dark!Josie. Leafeon because, c’mon. Eeveelution pair Leafeaon and Glaceon, it’s too good of an opportunity to pass up!

Lana Mikaelson

Delphox (shiny)

Mightyena

Hydreigon

Brambleghast

Meowstic (F)

Froslass

Lana is also a Tribrid like Hope, but I also wanted to give her some differences in her starting three Pokemon so she’s not like a carbon copy shadow of Hope. With that being said, I do have her first Pokemon be Delphox, like Hope’s. I thought maybe it would be sweet for Hope's Delphox to have eggs and Hope passed one to Lana and it hatched into a Fennekin. A next gen thing. But shiny because in my mind, Lana's magical fires take on a more black and purple hue (even if shiny Delphox’s fire is still red lol).

Mightyena and Hydreigon represent her werewolf and vampire side in her Tribrid title thing. Now, I know Hydreigon is a three-headed Dragon and nothing to do with vampires or even has a vampire motif. But lemme tell you something: it's fine. Don't worry about it. Lana with a kick-ass Dragon type like Hydreigon is hella dope don't come at me I'm fragile. Also Hydreigon, I just found out, is a pseudo-legendary type, which I think fits with Lana’s Tribrid nature. Not full legendary rare, but still rare enough that there’s no one else like her except for her Mom (which is also very fitting because Hope has a pseudo-legendary with Garchomp, another Dragon type).

Brambleghast is an immediate must because aside from black-purple fire, I think it's neat that her magic also manifests in brambles/briars. So this Pokemon is literally perfect for her.

Meowstic and Froslass give me this like, stand-offish and cool vibe, which honestly fits Lana's entire personality of a typical ice princess vibe who may or may not have a superiority complex.

Hayley Mikaelson

Lycanroc Midday

Primeape

Toxicroak

Gallade

Nidoking

Espeon

Hayley is the only werewolf–aside from Lana but she’s a Tribrid–amongst her supernatural siblings. So I thought it would be rather sweet if Hayley also have a Lycanroc but Midday form. I like to think that maybe Hope’s Lycanroc had babies and Hayley ended up getting one of the Rockruffs. Like passing on a legacy hehehe.

Asides from that, Hayley’s the type who will pull punches, she will act first and asks questions later type of person. So having a few Fighting types on her team was a no brainer. Like Primeape, Toxicroak, and Gallade–the latter which I just found out is part Fighting so that was a fun discovery.

I also thought Poison types would fit Hayley pretty well (and maybe it had something to do with the fact that Poison type logo colour is purple, and purple is her colour lmao). Which is where Toxicroak and Nidoking comes in. Plus, they would also fit in the power punches that is more of Hayley’s playstyle in combat.

Like with Josie, I love, love, love giving paired Pokemon to twins because I’m a massive lame unoriginal dork! Except I did bounce between giving Hayley either Flareon or Vaporeon to match with Jay’s Jolteon. Ended up not picking Flareon even tho she’s a spitfire because I feel like fire is a bit more of Jay’s thing even tho I picture Jay having more of an affinity to lightning. So then I thought maybe Vaporeon? But in the end I picked Espeon (it did pain me to not give Jay Umbreon because to me, Espeon and Umbreon are a pair) because purple is Hayley’s colour but I also think Espeon fits her, especially because Espeon is a Psychic type and Hayley has a few Fighting types, and Psychic is effective against Fighting. It also would tie into the fact that, despite Hayley being very hard-headed and tough, she still has that vulnerable moment to her that she tends to hide away from other people. It’s a pretty good balance!

Jay Mikaelson

Jolteon (shiny)

Toxtricity Amped

Spiritomb

Yamask

Flygon

Typhlosion

Look, I don’t have to repeat that I love giving twins paired Pokemon, because we been knew lmao. Jolteon is perfect for Jay because I always pictured him to have this affinity with lightning. However, I am a bit stumped on if I want Jolteon to be shiny or not, because Jay’s main colour is green (more like olive green), but we shall see. My answer will probably end up being a “yes his Jolteon is shiny and Hayley probably hates that he got a shiny Pokemon” haha. Shiny Jolteon it is then!

To keep in theme with his association with lightning, I gave him Toxtricity Amped form because I thought it’d be cool. Sometimes there’s just no deep reasoning. Sometimes it’s just “i think this is cool” lol.

Spiritomb for Jay is the same reasoning I have for Josie except he doesn’t really do what she did in the show and messed around with a dark object. But I thought it would be neat to give him Spiritomb (maybe this is actually Josie’s Spiritomb that she passed down to Jay, who knows). With Yamask, I didn’t have much of a story on why he has one, but I think I thought it fits him? I don’t really know how to explain why I think that. It just does.

Gave him a Flygon on his team because, like with Toxtricity, I just think it’d be neat! Also green lol. No but there is actually a little bit of reasoning. So asides from lightning, I think Jay would also have an affinity with the Earth/ground. So it fits that Flygon is a Ground(/Dragon) type as well. Flygon also has pretty good speed stat, and to be honest, Jay is very nimble and agile when he’s in combat and isn’t using his magic. I have a lot of his melee fights incorporate a lot of contemporary dance and gymnastic moves because I think it would be really interesting for him to use a lot of that in his melee fights, plus it would be pretty creative writing-wise to see what sort of things I can come up with to make those fights feel fluid because he is very agile and dextrous.

Typhlosion is there because I am biased and I love Typhlosion, fave starter of gen 2 babeyyy. But also has that little small spark of fire that he and Josie shares and I think that’s pretty neat heehee.

Leo Mikaelson

Litleo

Chansey

Granbull

Sliggoo

Aggron

Mimikyu

For Leo, I obviously had to give him Litleo. There was no way I couldn’t not give him Litleo, his name is practically in the name. Perfect Pokemon for our sweet summer child boi.

I actually had a tough time picking out the rest of Leo’s team and had to go back and forth with his way more than the others. Mostly because I had a thought of “what if he just has primarily Fairy types for the rest of his team” which evolved into “oh what about he has Fairy and Dragon types” which then evolved into “what if he just has these conventionally “””scary””” Pokemon on his team in contrast of his sunny bright disposition”. I think I did end up sticking with that regarding Granbull and Aggron.

Chansey came about because Leo wants to help his family out no matter what. That includes learning how to do potions even though he has no magic. That means learning up on werewolf packs and diplomacy even though he’s not a werewolf. That means researching the history of vampires–which becomes a family history thing–and figuring out ways to help rippers. He also makes sure his family is taken care of if they end up in some battle and are hurt. That’s where Chansey comes in. In Pokemon, Nurse Joy’s in every Pokemon Centre has a Chansey. They are like the poster Pokemon for Pokemon Centres. And in some of the Dex entries, Chansey is a very helping Pokemon. Whether that’s giving people or Pokemon its egg to eat to heal them, or bringing trainer’s happiness if they’re caught. That’s Leo. That is completely Leo.

Gave him Sliggoo to also balance out the Fairy types that he had on his team! I think it'd be neat for him to have a Dragon type. Because, tbh, Leo is gregarious and befriends creatures so quickly no matter what or how they act. Leo has amassed an army of creatures who will protect him no matter the cost and that's super precious to me haha. Which brings me back to my reasoning for giving him Granbull and Aggron lol (I know they're not scary ok).

And with Mimikyu, at first it was because I personally love Mimikyu but the more I thought about it the more I went “oh wait the lore of Mimikyu would maybe perhaps fit Leo’s arc of being the only human in a family of supernaturals and feeling very low of himself and inferior because he’s the “token human”. Like it would play into his insecurities a bit, but then he would, of course, eventually learn to embrace that yeah, he is the token human and will fuck shit up for those who underestimate him because he’s just a human.

'NEVERMORE' we all knew would come out on top. this is THE brainworm. the piece de resistance. the swansong except i'm not quitting or dying when it's done. hopefully. i haven't told anyone but i'm very aware this could blow out to 200 or 300k if i finish it, and it's. i just love it. unfettered creativity etc. Nevermore is based on the stray kids cinematic universe, the music videos and performances that all connect to tell a story, but even if you don't know stray kids, i think you can read it - it's about a group of boys (a band? a group of musicians?) stumbling into another world that is made of music and controlled by a strict government, and their journey back home to their own time and place, and the things that are left in their wake. it's huge and it's long and it's the first time i've reached 70k and still felt like i have a hand on all the plot lines without leaving plot holes in my wake.

'The Gone And The Gathered' is a zombies fic set in an au where zombietown is treated as an internment camp by Seabrook, also based on ghettos/concentration camps from WW2. Zombies are used to run the power plant and supply electricity and water to Seabrook and have never left the town; werewolves are known wild entities, and some have been captured as they are Useful in maintenance in the power plant. The story follows teenaged Wanda and Zoey through a series of discoveries about their world and the ripple effect this has on Zombietown and the world beyond the walls that they have never seen - and it's about staying quiet and accepting your lot in life, or daring to strike out and create a better future for yourself and your people, even if it might mean sacrificing yourself.

'Turn Your Back On Mother Nature' is a MCU Eternals fic, focused on Druig and Makkari. It contains five canon compliant scenes that, given my own director's cut, I would have added to the movie - not meant to change anything, but just meant to complement the plot and the character's own individual storylines and give more depth and meaning. I feel like I really excel at working within the boundaries given by a certain media and it's one of the main things that keeps me coming back to the challenge of writing fanfiction, and I'm so proud of the job that I did on this - it's well written, my character work really stands out, and I thought the scenes really worked to capture each idea I was trying to express. mwah good job roo.

'To Go Beyond Your Borders' is my pokemon comfort fic. It follows Angie, the champion of Sinnoh but also a disgraced public figure, and a journey of self-discovery as she runs away to Galar to compete in the Gym Challenge there. I started writing this in my depression/anxiety era, and in a lot of roundabout ways a lot of the themes/Angie's struggles are based on challenges I've faced in the last few years, so this fic is. Really cool, and something I keep coming back to as I really like the story I built for it. If more mature pokemon journeys is something you're interested in, this is the fic for you - and the composition of it, with social media interlaced with traditional storytelling, is so fun, I love doing it and coming up with the different bits and where they'll make the most impact. This is just so fun to work on and more people should read it so I make it more of a priority cause seeing this finished one day is going to make me so happy.

'if only we knew (the things we know)' and it's sequel, 'and the chasm grows', two of my long zombies stand-alones, are the fics i always think of first when asked what writing I'm most proud of. The themes are big - death, and knowing that you're going to die soon (cancer related themes, though this isn't about cancer), and facing down the idea of genocide of your entire race. They're very dark, as they have to be, and they're very hopeless, and whenever the odd reader comes along they tell me that they cried, and yet I think I managed to find a little bit of warmth in each, the strings of community and family and comfort that hold on until the very end. I specifically recommend the final scene of chasms, which i wrote in a blinding flash of inspiration and will never be able to recreate - it sticks with me even now, and while I can't remember certain other scenes from these fics, I will never forget that ending, and the way it made me as the writer feel when i finished and looked back on it.

i have never made gifs in my life but i think that if i did this is how i would film analyze nope specifically in relation to flying purple people eater in a set of eight gifs

1 &2 as jupe saying i'll show you a spectacle and purple people eater  "I heard him say in a voice so gruff/"I wouldn't eat you 'cause you're so tough""

3 & 4 as "Friendly little people eater/What a sight to see" and then jupe with gordy, reaching out for the fist bump

5&6 as "And he said, "Eatin' purple people and it sure is fine"/But that's not the reason that I came to land/"I wanna get a job in a rock and roll band"" and antlers watching his film footage of predators attacking prey

7&8 as the explosion eating the balloon. and "Well he went on his way, and then what do ya know/I saw him last night on a TV show/He was blowing it out, a-really knockin' em dead"

that’s what i’ve got. that’s my film analysis. i hope you feel its soul i have a lot of thoughts about the use of flying purple people eater, especially from antlers specifically

So I was writing a fic just for my sibling’s birthday, but now it has a ‘plot’ and ‘the cosmic horror of a god scooping out your memories but they do not truly understand the human mind’

here is the link to the series- Ingo is thrown into the past with a phone he does not know how to use anymore, and akari shows up with a phone that does not have an internet connection but fully aware of how one works

the people of ingo and akari’s future were not prepared to start receiving tweets from the past

My #1 post of 2022

Hello tumblr! New submas fic! There will be a reunion, and the previous one will also be finished, but JPG and I have been bouncing between three tracks and here’s the second

The summary is: Stuck in the past? Textures suck? Tastes bad? Horribly understimulated?

Just walk out! Hit the bricks! Leave through a portal with a kid you met a few months ago! What could go wrong?

And no one can crtiizcise the name or summary I came up with it just now with a broken tailbone

Tagged by: @margothedestroyerr :) Thank you my love <3 <3 <3

Tagging: @booty-boggins, @ocfairygodmother, @lostiintheocean, @mystic-scripture, and whoever wants to do this. Not sure who hasn’t been tagged yet!

Rules: Answer 30 questions and tag 20 blogs that you would love to get to know better.

Name/Nickname: Ooooo, my real name is a secret, but the nicknames I go by are Grace, Gracy, G, Pip (<3 <3 <3), and I’m sure there are others. IRL, that’s another story hahaha.

Gender: Cis female 

Star sign: Leo...and that’s all I know -3-

Height: 5'5″ish....maybe somewhat close to 5′6″?

Time: 10:50 pm

Birthday: July 26

Favorite Bands: BTS (YESSSS), Blackpink, Twice, EXO, TXT, Blink 182, and others. Honestly, I listen to a lot hahaha.

Favorite Solo artists: Agust D and some others who fail to come to mind at the moment hahaha

Song stuck in my head: Honestly, it’s anything BTS because I have that playlist on repeat. 

Last movie: Batman Begins....for research purposes.....;)

Last Show: Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma...and a word of caution...definitely watch with headphones O.O

When did I create this blog: November 2012 for @itsjustgracy and September 2018 for this blog. 

What do I post: On my main, I reblog multifandom content and works of fellow creators that I’m tagged in. This account is strictly for my characters and my fan-fiction purposes.  

Last thing I googled: "Jonathan Crane Batman Begins”...again...for research purposes ;) and to drool over Cillian Murphy <3

Other blogs: @itsjustgracy is my main and this is my OC blog :)

Do I get asks: Only when I reblog ask games. Very seldom do I get asks outside of that. Annoying haters on the other hand, ughhhhh I wish they took a break and find something else productive. 

Why I chose my url: @itsjustgracy is something I hear a lot IRL (Oh...it’s just *insert real name*/ Gracy) and this blog’s name is from when I was younger and I used to watch this show called Atomic Betty and it sounded cool...which is also a slang word for atomic. So in short: it’s like Cool Gracy (lame...I know hahaha)

Following: 660

Followers: 140 on main and 207 on here

Average hours of sleep: Hahahah...it highly depends. If I get too much, I get cranky and if I get less, the more energetic I am? It's between 30 mins to 4/5 hours? Horrible, I know...

Lucky number: 13 <3

Instruments: I played guitar for a little bit but I don’t remember so much anymore (it was a high school phase). I am a mediocre clarinet player who was first chair during my years playing (only like that word because of Spongebob hahaha, so I guess you can say I was pretty good). I played piano since I was six and still dabble in it (played both genres of classical and other things like video games, anime, pop culture, etc). Does it count if I sing in the choir? I’m an alto voice who can switch to soprano if the number is lacking for the service. Currently perfecting the organ because I am practicing in church :) If you’re lucky, you can hear a wild Gracy humming or just singing to herself. Looking to pick up another instrument and the violin is kinda tempting!

What am I wearing: Black leggings, BT21 Cooky Striped Crew Socks, Sailor Moon black long sleeve, and Pink Sailor Moon hoodie from a friend’s shop (please check out https://www.instagram.com/special.move/ if you like anime hoodies! They have MHA, Sailor Moon, Demon Slayer and they are about to launch their Jujutsu Kaisen collection) 

Dream job: Traveling RN because I want to get out of my area and explore the world. Maybe be an author on the side :)

Dream trip: Visit the #chaoshouse members and just hangout. Other than that, Europe, Japan, South Korea, etc. 

Favorite food: Don’t make me choose! TT_TT My brother and boyfriend already have problems with me being picky and incredibly indecisive when it comes to “What are we eating?”

Nationality: An American that is looking for any way out

Favorite song: All K-Pop songs are stuck on repeat and favorites do change depending on what comes up on shuffle. BUTTTTT...the one song that hits home with me is Epiphany and it’s sung by Jin from BTS as his solo. Not because he is one of my bias, but if you listen and understand the lyrics (yay for English translations) you’ll see why :) 

Last book read: My Dark Vanessa by Kate Elizabeth Russell. I am throwing up all warnings because the content material, or practically the entire book, is very triggering!!! This is an extremely dark book and even I had to put it down several times because it was definitely difficult to finish. It was hauntingly good read, but the subject material is what really made it difficult. My heart goes out to the author. 

Top three fictional universes I’d like to live in: Harry Potter, not only to chase after Draco, but to live out my childhood. I DO NOT support the author and I would love to make that clear. The Wizarding World is something that has always appealed to me growing up and I used to wish about attending Hogwarts. I am still awaiting my acceptance letter!!!! Maybe anything in the manga/anime field because have you seen the creativity and how awesome the worlds are?!? (Being a hero in MHA, surviving in AoT, raising a Psyduck in Pokemon, etc.). Last would probably be...crud...this is hard...but maybe Star Wars because, apparently, Pedro Pascal, Oscar Isaac, and Diego Luna are enough to convince me that men like that exist <3. In all seriousness, that series  is legit...umph.....so imaginative. Because I said so, maybe LotR because I wanna run around with @mystic-scripture and fulfill our Hobbit dreams....and marry Eomer...because Karl Urban. Also Star Trek....because Karl Urban....and Chris Pine....and cause I love it too. Goodness, I am just blowing this question out of proportion with my thirstiness hahaha.

New Random Questions

I was tagged by the lovely @downtoclown-around 🥰 thank you dear!

Ok, here we go!

Name/Nickname?

Katherine/Katie/Kate

If you could bring any two fictional characters into the same world, who would they be, which world would you put them in, and what would their relationship to each other be?

I would like to see Heath Ledger's Joker with L from Death Note (yes, I'm still Death Note trash in 2020 lmao). And I would put J in the DN universe because although I doubt he would ever use a death note (too impersonal of a way to kill), I REALLY wanna see him interact with the shinigami lol.

Their relationship could go one of two ways: either L is hunting J down, with J skillfully avoiding arrest and giving L a run for his money.

OR, in some extremely convoluted circumstance, they end up working together to catch Kira. L is known to hire talented criminals when the need arises, and I feel like J could bring a very unique skillset to the task force. And I'd love to see the looks on their faces when they come to work one day and there's this feral clown man parading through the HQ like he owns the place 😂

If you could drop yourself into any fictional world, which would it be?

I would drop myself into the Joker 2019 universe and land right on Arthur's dick where I belong 😂😂😂

Either that one or Animal Crossing, lmao

What's your spirit animal?

My spirit animal is the pangolin. Because it's smol. And it always walks around like it's timidly looking for the only person it knows at a house party because they abandoned it to go to the bathroom and haven't come back yet

What is the most unpopular opinion you have?

UMMMM🅱️ I guess it's that I really don't want a Joker sequel??? I feel like the story is complete and adding on to it is a big risk, yknow? Idk, I just think one of the movie's biggest strengths is its ability to stand alone, separate from the rest of the DCEU

How do you like to style your hair?

I usually just curl it and wear it down, especially when it's long. I put it up in a ponytail when it's hot or when I'm too lazy to wash it lol. It's naturally very dark brown, but I dyed it blonde a few months ago. Probably gonna go back to natural though

What three books would you want on a deserted island?

Lord of the Flies by William Golding (ironic lol), The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, and ummmm House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski

Something new you've learned in quarantine?

Well, I've been using the extra time to sharpen my piano skills, so I guess that counts?

Favorite alcoholic drink?

Long Island iced tea, especially the way they make it at The Cheesecake Factory 🥰 I'm very tiny though, so one is always enough to knock me on my ass lmao

Music you can't stand? Music you love?

LORD HERE WE GO!! ok so I have a degree in music so I've studied a lot of SHIT music in my life lol. Here are a couple examples:

• There was this composer named Conlon Nancarrow who wrote pieces for player piano using ridiculous patterns and time signatures. Take a listen if you ever want a headache, I'm serious.

• Anything by Bela Bartok ffs

• All country music, but I'll make an exception for Before He Cheats by Carrie Underwood lol

As for music I LOVE:

• My favorite piece of all time is Claude Debussy's "The Girl with the Flaxen Hair" (it's originally for piano, but listen to the Sakura Cello Quintet version, it's FUCKING BEAUTIFUL)

• Second favorite piece is Mozart's Lacrymosa, the final piece of his requiem

• A really cool avant garde piece by R. Murray Schafer called Epitaph for Moonlight (here's a link to a video where you can listen to it and follow along at the same time. The notation blows my fuckin mind https://youtu.be/dzUXzu7JYFc)

• The Mountain Goats is my current favorite band, John Darnielle is a master lyricist HOOO

• I'm also partial to both Lana del Rey and Post Malone 🥰

Have a favorite herb?

Oregano, cause I'm always a slut for pizza

What kind of cups/glasses/bottles do you prefer to drink out of?

My bf and I collect fandom mugs for Animal Crossing, Legend of Zelda, Pokemon, etc lol

Preferred mode of communication: text, calls, emails, letters?

Text or email. Phone calls give me anxiety lol. And I've only written like five letters in my life lmao

What's your favorite weather?

Cold, drizzly, misty. And I live in the south USA so I almost never get it 🙃🙃🙃

What kind of lighting do you like?

Oooh fairy lights are so pretty 🥰 but I also love the moonlight

What is the best thing you cook?

I make a killer fried rice, and great spaghetti and meatballs. But typically, I'm WAY better at baking, I used to wanna be on shows like Cake Boss when I was little lmao

Do you have a favorite font?

Times New Roman because I'm boring lol

What is something you've always wanted to write in a fic, but you've been too afraid to? Or what's something you were afraid to write, but you did and it turned out awesome?

There's not really anything I'm AFRAID to write. It's more a matter of wanting to do certain topics justice (various mental illnesses, addictions, suicidal ideation, etc.) and needing to do proper research first. The fear doesn't come until it's time to post lol.

Likewise, I was extremely afraid to start posting "They're Funny That Way", but the reception I've gotten so far has made me so happy, and I'm so excited to keep going with it 🥰

If you were in your favorite fantasy world, what would be your weapon of choice?

I'd wanna be a pokemon trainer, and I'd have either a Froslass or a Zoroark

Is there a commonly used expression/saying that you can't stand?

Straight women calling platonic female friends "girlfriends" 🙄

What's something you'd like people to know about you?

• I'm a professional opera singer, but I'm also heavily trained in musical theatre

• I have a cat named Aria

• I'm fluent in both English and French, and I also know a little Spanish, German, Italian, and Japanese 😁

So there you have it! Thanks again to @downtoclown-around for tagging me, this was so much fun! If you've already done it, ignore this, but I'd like to tag @mr--clown @impulsiveclown @starksclown @art-hurfleck @lilredelf and anyone else who would like to do it!!

Love,

Kate ❤

[garethlyons]

Get to know me.

Rules: Always post the rules. Tag 11 new people you’d like to know better.

1. Dogs or Cats?

I love them both. I’m a farm kid, what are you expecting?

2. YouTube celebrities or normal celebrities?

Whichever ones are more practical about humility and honoring their personal journey. We’ve all got one. It makes us more human.

3. If you could live anywhere where would that be?

Gah. California for work and the weather.

4. Disney or DreamWorks?

It depends on the story they’re presenting.

5. Favourite childhood TV show?

Animaniacs. Hands Down. I mean if Freakazoid was airing around the same time as Animaniacs I could see that blowing the fuck up. 

( Oh wait, it did. Near the end of the series though. )

( My cousin also brought up the best idea ever. Freakazoid vs Deadpool. Mind. Blown. )

6. The movie you’re looking forward to most in 2020?

...Please tell me the next continuation of The Adventures of Tintin is coming out next year. Otherwise this question is fucked.

7. Favourite book you read in 2019?

UNLEARN: 101 LIFE LESSONS WITHOUT THE BULLSH*T by Humble the Poet

Just because he keeps things short and to the point. It’s refreshing from GIANT WALLS OF TEXT.

8. Marvel or DC?

Meh. I grew up on both. My brother was a Marvel fan.

9. If you choose Marvel favourite member of the X-Men? If you choose DC favourite Justice League member?

Jubliee and Rogue were my faves for X-Men. In terms of Justice League? Wonder Woman.

10. Night or Day?

I like the night, mostly because it’s the only time I feel I can get shit done. I like the daytime since I’m a solar powered human.

11. Favourite Pokemon?

I’ve always found Raichu to be a fave of mine. ( The game came out when I was 10 and it was just after Jim Henson died. I didn’t go after it like many others did. I was more sad that one of my favorite people died. )

12. Top 5 bands:

...look I’m too much of a music snob to just pick FIVE TOP BANDS.

Phil Collins, Roxette, Journey, Foo Fighters, Daft Punk, and Joywave

13. Top 10 books.

The Trumpet of the Swan by E.B. White and Socks by Beverly Cleary

Because I’m not much for reading. I’d put Nancy Drew down or The Hardy Boys as well but I’ve read them all and I can’t remember shit. Same goes for all of the Adventures of Tintin series.

14. Top 4 movies

Singing In the Rain has been one of my favorites for eons. I just enjoy how the one character just tears a strip off the other and it exposes how truly human we all are. ( Mind you I was also on Sunset and Camden the other night and had this entire bittersweet moment to myself of Debbie Reynolds belting out, “Here we are! Sunset and Camden!” )

Hidden Figures. Just. You need to watch it. I could blather on about it, yet it’s not the same if I tell you. Mainly because the important parts of the movie are amazing, and the acting and emotion is so incredibly done.

Kubo and the Two Strings. Again. You need to watch it. The story is something else. The fact that this entire movie took SEVEN WHOLE YEARS TO MAKE with the type of animation done is just...gah.

The Muppet Movie. Because I love what the Muppets used to be. At least, for me. I’m still a dreamer, and I just..I love the simple message.

15. America or Europe?

Europe. Give me a year in London. I would never get bored. The fact that you could take a train to one area and be in another country in less than a day feels like you’ve won the lottery and you get to travel forever.

16. Tumblr or Twitter?

Neither. They both have their faults.

17. Pro-choice or Pro-life?

Pro-Choice.

18. Favourite YouTuber?

Whoever has good makeup tutorials for women with glasses.

19. Favourite author ?

Don’t really have one.

20. Tea or Coffee?

Okay first off - @dardillien-ward​, HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT COFFEE TASTES LIKE ASS?? 

I’m more for Dark Hot Chocolate. Honey Lavender Tea for less stress and the occasional tiny amount of a light/medium/dark coffee blend done by a local company.

21. OTP ?

Me and Voice Acting. Because I’ve got this. Not JUST yet, but I’ve got this.

22. Do you play an instrument/sing ?

I took voice singing lessons, I used to play trumpet. The trumpet was a hand me down because my brother played it as well. I was also in piano. I never did learn to read notes, though.

An Informative Post About This Blog

Welcome one, welcome all to my blog! 

This blog’s intended purpose is to 

create content for fandoms I enjoy 

create content for others to enjoy 

force myself to create

This is blog is going to be mostly Scenarios and Headcanons. Scenarios are generally (hopefully) going to be a bit longer then headcanons which in turn means they’ll take a little longer. But for everything I do I will try to do them in decent lengths. 

When it comes to either you can request a single character or do a mixed request. I know some people like and will make poly requests and depending on the request there is a chance I’ll accept it. I just hope I can do them and all requests justice. 

Note: When doing a mixed request with multiple characters I’ll do my best to keep them about the same length however this may not always be the case. 

As for what gender I write in I know many people prefer gender neutral and so that’s what I’m going to do my best to stick to. If it’s requested specifically that I do a female or male reader I will try to write it as requested but if I’m not satisfied with it just know that it’ll probably be posted as gender neutral. 

{RULES} 

- Try to always state whether you want it as a scenario or headcanon if you don’t I’ll write which ever I choose. 

- I’d prefer it if I didn’t receive requests involving self-harm, suicide, rape and other such sensitive topics because I don’t want to inaccurately portray such serious matters. 

- I’m on the fence about doing NSFW things. I’m not sure how well I could do them but I suppose it’s worth a shot if anyone is interested in requesting it. Will be tagged as NSFW if written. 

- I reserve the right to not do a request if I’m uncomfortable with it whether it’s NSFW or not. Such request might just get deleted rather then receive any response. 

{What I Write For}

This is something I’m still trying to figure out but as of now things I’ll write for are listed below along with some information on how much of it I’ve seen/read/played. Just know I’ll do my best to keep everyone in character but also everything is kind of trial and error right now to see what I can and can’t write for. It’s been a long time since I’ve written anything fanfic-y so it could take a while to figure things out. 

Voltron: Legendary Defender

I’ve seen up to season 7 just not 7 itself yet mostly because my friend and I agreed I’d watch it with her so I didn’t blow her phone up again like I did with season 6 but we just haven’t had time to do so. 

Idolish7 

I’ve only seen the anime but I really wish I could play the game </3

Dream Festival!!!!

I loved season 1 and I started Dream Festival R but I haven’t had time to finish it. 

Fairy Tail 

I’ve watched all of what’s on Netflix and as of writing this I’ve read up to volume 41. 

Haikyuu!!

I’ve watched up to the most recent season I think? I really just need to go back and rewatch, mostly just cause I love it. 

Of course I’ve seen/read/played a lot more then this but I don’t want to list everything now. If your curious to know what else feel free to ask me especially if you’re wanting to request something for it though I can’t guarantee I’ll have seen it. My likes and interests are fairly diverse I think so there’s no telling with me. I play Food Fantasy, Pokemon Go, and Otome games if that’s not diverse idk what is.

Anyways I think that’s all for now, I’ll update this as needed. I look forward to receiving requests and getting to know fellow lovers of my interests! Remember, I’m not a daily writer but I try my best to be!

[fairykeiheaven]

I fully realize that the Pokemon Anime Fandom is going to explode to the news that I tried to attempt suicide over Ash and Serena’s kiss scene. I want to make it very clear I’m not doing this for attention. I’ve been quiet about my attempt for a year and half now only sharing it on facebook with my friends for support. I stay quiet about it for a long time because 1 I didn’t want to upset Amourshippers and 2 I really ashamed of it and was scared of the trolls that would cyberbully me for it. But I’ve learn I’m not the only one who has gotten this emotional in fictional characters and that I really want to go public about it to let other suicidal shippers know they’re not alone. The reason I’m posting my memes making fun of myself on 4chan is because it’s my way of coping with the reality that I’m serious going to get extremely cyberbullied. Even if I didn’t post anything on there I will still end up on there. I made a video back in 2013 that immediately got posted to 4chan. Link here for proof: https://rbt.asia/cgl/thread/6742190

So I already have haters who were going to cyberbully me anyways. So I’ve decided to embrace the hate and accept my destiny as the queen of the trolls. Life is too short to care about what everyone thinks of you so I just don’t give a F anymore on what they think.

I won’t be surprise if I get more hate from Pokeshippers than Amourshippers being I throw the Pokeshipping fandom under the bus for being so mean to other Ashxgirl shippers. Calling out Misty4Alola for tagging amourshipping in anti-amourshipping post. Although I know the Pokeshipping community has been bad I know Amourshippers have also been pretty bad too. Apparently Amourshippers cyberbullied someone to suicide according to someone on Deviant Art. I will post proof here:

We both are the two most popular Ash ships in the fandom but we both need to accept our differences and not attack one another.

I’m tagging Amourshipping in this because I know for a fact Amourshippers can relate to getting emotional invested into fictional characters and I want them to know they’re not alone. Also I end up praising Amourshipping and saying it should go ahead and become canon so please don’t get offend just yet.

Overall I’ve been planning on coming out as a Suicidal Pokeshipper for years now. The reason I’m called a Suicidal Shipper (without the Poke’) is I want to sell shirts with my logo out of it without being sued by the Pokemon company. Also to make it relatable to other fandoms. However I don’t get super emotional invested in every ship I ship. Just Pokeshipping honestly. I refuse to even get that emotional invested in another ship because even if there is a 99% of it become canon, after the back luck I had with Pokeshipping I’m too afraid to take that risk again.

Also come to realize that even if Pokeshipping did become canon I would still struggle with depression. For a long time I thought Pokeshipping would fill the empty void in my heart, but now I know it wouldn’t have. It’s because my depression has more to do with me and an imbalance of chemicals in my brain. Like I said in the video I was on a low dosage of an anti-psychotic that week.

My friend once explained to me that it’s like I’m constantly looking for this one thing to make me happy and once I get it I’ll finally feel happy and be cure from depression. I realize now that isn’t true. Even if I were to get fame and fortune my depression will still be an everyday struggle and will take a lot of work. It takes a lot of self-love and that comes from yourself not other people.

I know things like money and fame only bring temporary happiness, but I big reason why I want to go public about this is to find other suicidal shippers like me and possibly meet some IRL. To me that connection is priceless. I honestly hope this doesn’t blow up too much and if it does I hope it doesn’t last forever. I like the idea of being known in a small community of people, being it’s easy to connect to fans.

Regardless of what happens I’m not going to give up and give in to the hate I know I’ll get.

I thought the blankship tag was the YAOI tag. That's what it seemed to be when I first got into this, and that's what it was going all the way back. I thought it was adorable identical twin train muppets named Ingo and Emmet being inappropriately intimate with each other. We were doing fun stuff, like Buff Ingo and Emmet coping with the whole Hisui mess. That must have gotten really boring really fast because the fans did the old bait-and-switch on me. Suddenly, the blankship tag became, "What if there were two Ingos and four Emmets? What if the four Emmets turned into sheeps at midnight, and the two Ingos 'bout wore themselves out rounding them up for a gang-bang?" (Please don't treat that as a request)

I get it tho.....the whole 'time travel to Hisui' and train bullshit is very restrictive. It's no wonder blankshipping became mutilation porn and animal buggery quicker than AMTRAK clears a railroad crossing going full speed. Joking aside, but furries ruin everything. Try going on FurAffinity and looking up a popular character like Lucario. Even if you filter out the R-18 material, it's all guaranteed to be like 90% hermaphrodite fat pron or any other gross depraved fetish that nobody else on earth except furries wants to look at. That's how it is looking up Gardevoir or Gallade, and if I was legit into pokephilia, (I'm not) I still wouldn't like that gross shit they post over there. That's what they are turning Tumblr into here, and it's weird because the Subway Bosses aren't even coded furry. They're humans....or human-passing, whatever.

(also using the r-slur about someone that asked you not to use said slur because “i didnt do it recently you r-!”

This never happened. I owned up to the one time I actually called Emmet the r-word, and one could tell the context was me being goofy and edgy. Emmet can handle it. He's a beautiful and complex fictional character with interesting mental idiosyncrasies. I still don't know when I supposedly threw out the r-word in that one person's posts. -Thought it might be this one, but no go. Somebody help me out if he/she shared the link. I might even apologize depending on the context. Truth be told, I'd rather Emmet be simple and innocent than an evil murderous being. Ideally, he'd be neither simple nor a murderer, of course.

Side note: There's a new Pokemon game coming out this winter called Scarlett and Violet. It's set in the future, and fans seem to think that Emmet will be in it, except instead of having ripped up clothes like Past Ingo, he will look shiny and be in a position of leadership. A bunch of artists are making fan art for it. If I could, I'd BEG the people in Japan who make these to give us Himbo Leader Emmet. Since Volo is immortal, he could eventually meet Emmet in the future, making that ship valid because they'd have actually met in canon. They'd plot to do Volo's plan of destroying the world to make a new and better world. Your job as the protag will be to eventually confront Himbo!Emmet and tell him that the new and better world won't actually be as good. There would be no trains in it because all the people who run the trains will be dead. You'd watch the klinklang gears slowly turn in his head, and he'd retort in great indignation.... "Wait a minute.....is this true, Volo?! I can't be a Subway Boss if there's no subway, you big silly pants!"

He'd walk away shaking his head and saying, "I would have figured this out sooner if Volo hadn't been distracting me non stop with mind-blowing love making...."

holy shit “how dare you put kink stuff in the blankship tag!”

my dude.

the blankship tag IS a kink tag. twincest is literally the foundational basis of the ship. holy fuck.

(also using the r-slur about someone that asked you not to use said slur because “i didnt do it recently you r-!” and calling every kink evil beastiality when you literally ship pokephilia is. i cant even. like i do not jive with A/B/O whatsoever either but i just ignore it and move on i dont throw public tantrum CALLOUTS in the main tag holy fuck.)

The Seven Sins of Fanfiction

Hey all,

This blog is primarily focused on helping newer writers (and maybe some older ones) improve their fanfiction and increase their views.  Since that’s the case, it’s important to understand exactly what not to do when you’re writing.

These are the worst things you can do while you’re writing.  I can guarantee everyone reading this post has done at least three of them, and probably all in some shape of form.  This is the sort of thing that makes you want to click away immediately, that you cringe at when it’s in the first paragraph or laugh at how bad it is.  These things that make you stop reading other stories, just think about it for a moment.  What if fewer people are reading your own work because you’re making the same mistakes?

Yeah.  If you want to improve, you gotta know what you’re doing wrong.  Number Seven is the least worst, then the list descends to Number One, the worst thing you can do in fanfiction.

Note: This is a subjective list.  There are people who disagree with some of these points (especially the non-grammar ones), so it’s important to remember that these are the things I find most degrading to the quality of the story being written.  As a writer, you have the creative liberty to write whatever you want.

#7 – Bad Romance

“Wo-o-o-o-o, o-o-o-o, o-o-ah, caught in a bad romance fanfiction but it’s the only 100k fic for my OTP so I’m like contractually obligated to read it.” - Lady Gaga, mostly

We’ve all been here.  You know that moment when two characters meet, then suddenly decide to kiss, and the next thing you know they’re screwing on the patio with some kinky ass BDSM shit.  What about those cringe fics where suddenly Harry is spouting some creepy possessive stuff like “my only” or “softest light of my life” to twelve year old Ginny.  You know what I’m talking about.

Good romance is an art.  It’s about flawed characters (later) coming together in a beautifully intimate way (later) to make something even more beautiful.  There is so much bad romance on FFN and AO3 that it just blows my mind.

Giving tips would take an entire post, so here’s a good article on the absolute basics you need to write a good romance: https://www.nownovel.com/blog/romance-writing-mistakes/

#6 – Bad Dialogue Tags

“No!” he howled.

“Yes,” she growled angrily.

She retorted snarkily, “Well, screw you.”

“Fuck you too,” he scowled sadly, before gratingly mumbling “I still love you though.”

Alternatively:

“No!” “Yes.”  “Well, screw you.”  “Fuck you too.  I still love you though.”

There’s a glorious word in this social construct we call English, and it’s “said.”  Use it.

You don’t need a fancy word for every tag.  You don’t need a fancy word for almost all tags.  Eighty percent of your tags should be said, exclaimed, and asked, and more of said than the others.  Maybe a whispered or a yelled for some flavor.

Adverbs are your enemies.  I struggle with this, but you should use them extremely sparingly.

On the flipside, if your reader doesn’t know who’s talking, your dialogue is meaningless to them.  Also, use line breaks every time there is a new speaker.

The trick is finding some happy medium between the two examples.  A handful of fancy tags, a lot of said, and if there are two people talking back and forth you don’t even need to tag every sentence.

#5 – Bad Messaging

I don’t want to put down an example for this one, because I think writers feel liberated to write some really awful shit in fanfiction because it’s “not a serious medium” or “it’s the internet, I have free speech.”  Let me say this right now:

Stories that make rape a positive thing are not okay.  Stories that portray suicide in a glorified light are not okay.  Stories that show slavery, or torture, or all of the other horrendous things human beings do to each other in a romanticized or glorified manner are not okay.

I don’t care if it’s your fetish.  I don’t care, it’s just not okay to write about these things in a positive light.  The only reason this is so high on this list is because these stories aren’t as common as the rest, and are mostly marked M/Explicit so you can avoid them.

#4 – Overdescription

Hi my name is Ebony Dark’ness Dementia Raven Way and I have long ebony black hair (that’s how I got my name) with purple streaks and red tips that reaches my mid-back and icy blue eyes like limpid tears and a lot of people tell me I look like Amy Lee (AN: if u don’t know who she is get da hell out of here!). [[I’m not related to Gerard Way but I wish I was because he’s a major fucking hottie. I’m a vampire but my teeth are straight and white. I have pale white skin. I’m also a witch, and I go to a magic school called Hogwarts in England where I’m in the seventh year (I’m seventeen). I’m a goth (in case you couldn’t tell) and I wear mostly black. I love Hot Topic and I buy all my clothes from there. For example today I was wearing a black corset with matching lace around it and a black leather miniskirt, pink fishnets and black combat boots. I was wearing black lipstick, white foundation, black eyeliner and red eye shadow – My Immortal

Oh boy.

Writers, let me introduce you to this wonderful thing called your profile.  Assuming you aren’t drowning in copypastas, this is the perfect place for your character descriptions.  Alternatively, have you heard of Tumblr? Literally, stick them anywhere except the middle of your story, and I can guarantee you the readers that actually care will find them if you mention them in your A/N.

Show, don’t tell is one of the fundamental principles of writing. When you’re describing a character, you probably don’t need more than three adjectives and a one sentence description of their outfit. Yes, that applies even if your character has a special non canon outfit.  If we must know, work the details into the story. Info-dumping description is telling, and is one of the worst world building and characterization mistakes you can make.  Period.

#3 – Epithets

The blond girl walked to the door, and started as a burly man opened it.  “May I help you?”

“Yes, I’m here to get a consultation,” the graying businessman said as he ran a hand through his oily hair.

The youthful therapist nodded as she shut the door behind him. Rummaging on her desk, she asked, “Why are you here?”

“Well,” said the jaded economist to the buxom woman.  “This author thinks they’re being clever by not giving out names, but they’re ruining this story.”

The best way to get someone to leave your story is epithets.  

Epithets do not create mystery.  Epithets are not a good substitute for proper nouns.  Epithets will not make a clever opening, or add variety to your dialogue.

Epithets will ruin your story, and should not be used.

They come in varying degrees of horror.

The noun.  You might be able to get away with saying just “the woman” or “the child” under certain circumstances. This is almost an excusable offence.

The noun with one adjective.  This is already unacceptable. If you though you were going to solve Sin #4 by doing this, you’re digging yourself an even deeper hole.

The noun with one modified adjective.  Because they can’t just be sexy, they have to be shockingly sexy.

The noun with multiple adjectives.  This is automatically overdescription on top of being a horrible thing to subject another person to.

The noun followed by a relative clause.  Because there’s always a way to make it worse.  “The girl who was now holding his hand” is absolutely disgusting, and so is “The girl that was sitting across from her” or especially “the girl she knew had a chocolate bar somewhere in her pocket.

The noun followed by a relative clause with adjectives.  Put it together and what have you got?

Compound Epithets.  Oh. My.  God.  This deserves its own sin.  Even if your character has blue hair, you should never ever ever call them a bluenette.  Ever.  Ever ever ever. AAAAAAAAH!

The author has made her point.

#2 – Bad Grammar

I find bad grammar extremely agitating, mostly because there are a lot of great tools and easy fixes to solve the problems.  Most word processors have a built in spell checker, and a lot of them check for grammar as well.  If you need an alternative, grammarly.com has a good free version that’ll catch a lot of mistakes.  Of course, proofreading your work before posting is always a great idea.  Here’s a quick list of some of the most common grammar issues you should be on the lookout for:

A new paragraph for a new idea.

A new paragraph for a new speaker.

Dialogue formatting

Periods

Commas

Run on sentences

Using line breaks

Spelling

Capitalizing starts of sentences

Capitalizing proper nouns

Choosing CONSISTENT capitalization for canon terms (Pokemon vs pokemon, for example)

Repeated words.

Sentence fragments

Tense

#1 – Bad Characterization

“What?” you’re probably asking yourself right now.  “How is bad characterization possibly worse than poor grammar?  Than epithets?”

Allow me to explain.

When an author writes a story, a good story, they are creating characters who act like people.  They have wants, needs, hates, motives, and a concept of who they are, even if they’re only fictional.  The author gives them life, spirit, a spark that keeps you reading and wanting to learn more about them.

That sense of identity is what makes them real to us.  Why you binge a show on Netflix, or read a novel in one night.  Reading is a connection with these characters on a deeper level than you might realize, and this connection brings them to life.

Take that away, and your story is dead.

Your gray OOC Gary Stu overpowered Ravenclaw Harry who grew up with Snape and has a goblin half brother AU is not a story about Harry Potter.  It’s a story about an OC named Harry Potter, and Harry loses any integrity he had as a character in Rowling’s books.

That’s why there are fics with horrible grammar and massive following, alongside fics with incredible grammar and sentence construction but no followings.  Unless you maintain a basic level of your character’s identity, the essence of what makes them empathetic, you’re not writing about that character.  This is the worst sin, because even with all of the others in play, if there is good characterization you can still create an incredible story.

Just by fixing these seven problems, your fic can instantly jump from bad/meh to incredible in the way people perceive it.  Hopefully this list can help you determine things to either go back and revise or work on for future chapters.  When have you committed one of the seven sins?  What other sins do people make all the time in their writings?

Thank you to all of the amazing people who have followed, Allie

❤  T H A N K   Y O U  !!

so, yesterday i reblogged this meme and posted this heart for it. i expected comments from maybe about 10 of you guys. i got wonderful words from 20+ of you. it honestly made me OVERWHELMINGLY HAPPY and continues to do so when i look at all the things you all said. i originally planned to go through and comment nice things on all your heart posts if you were doing the meme, too, but nah. i’m responding to each of you in one big post. it meant a lot especially because of how i’ve been in such an annoying rut like the past month, but i think i’m going to be able to come out of it once guzma feels like he can get out of bed. these kind words all definitely helped. long post below the cut!

@tender--age--in--plume:

Kisses his nose. "Love ya, G."

( kaycie is one of the sweetest and most tender people i know and i am so glad i get to be her friend and talk to her all the tiiime~~~~ )

Kisses her nose in return, then goes for a quick peck of the lips to one-up her. “Love ya, too, P.”

RIGHT BACK ATCHA FRIEND i love talking all the time too and i love our headcanoning and i love our rps especially our private ones i wish we could keep up ones like those on tumblr LOL but heck yes A+ plumes

literally same like i feel like i would just be repeating what you just said, and what i said on your heart meme, and what we’ve both said 5000 times before if i said how i felt about you here LOL but all in all YOU’RE ONE OF MY FAVORITE PEOPLE I LIKE THAT WE DON’T HAVE TO TALK EVERY DAY TO STILL FEEL LIKE BEST FRIENDS. I FEEL LIKE THAT’S AN INDICATOR OF REAL BEST FRIENDSHIP.

@moonkxssed:

//I know we haven't interacted but I just LOVE seeing you on my dash. Your Guzma is so developed and I can see you put so much effort in your headcanons ^v^ I'd love to interact one day!!

@deriision:

I loved Guzma before, and I love him more because of your portrayal. You give him so much life, and more than what some of the fandom thinks of him. Guzma is a fave boi for sure, because wowie you made him one of the greats.

every time someone tells me i made them love guzma more or even like him at all, it makes my heart soar!!! thank you!! i work so hard to give him life and make him more than what a lot of the fandom thinks of him as and i am so happy you can notice it <333 your oc, while we’re at it, is hecking cool af ???? and i love your art like.... hnng 

@pkmncontestsorbust:

[[ I know we don't interact but you!! Are such a great writer!! And your Guzma is A++!! Also eff u u and tender made me ship guzmeria!! Fuck!! ]]

we should definitely CHANGE THAT and interact sometime yo!! thank you!! tbh i like to peek at your rps with tender sometimes. GUZMERIA CLAIMS ANOTHER <3 (lol tender it doesn’t let me re-tag you so i hope you see this)

@pxgtails:

a lot of times i'll think about guzma and then a while later i'll be like 'oh wait that wasn't canon was it that was a kaycie headcanon' and it sounds weird but basically what i'm going for is your guzma IS guzma as far as i'm concerned lfhdkhfslfsdklj i love your characterization i greatly admire the events you run and all around just!!! keep it up!!!!! fingerguns

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN i have that happen all the time with other muses and my own as well lol... aND IT MEANS SO MUCH THAT YOU’VE TOLD ME THAT! like holy fuck!! it really makes me feel like i’ve done my job as a writer for this boi. i’ve told you before i love how much work you put into kris, too. you are like one of the most memorable blogs in this fandom to me because you were around way back when i started my morty blog. also, fun fact, you are actually my very first follower on this blog lol! i took note of that just a couple days ago. thank you for being overall great :^)

@askteamstonehearts:

{aghostlyrose} we've only done a few short threads but you've always been so kind to me! Most people who play canon characters aren't very tolerant of OCs but you made me feel really welcome in the trainer fandom 💜]

AWH SHUCKS!!! i hope to see aghostlyrose make a comeback soon! if you do then of course i would love to start another thread~~ you rock, yo. i mean, interactions with you are like one of the earliest i can remember having on this blog. you got a real special spot in my heart <3

@whxt-trial:

((We don't talk or interact much but your Guzma is amazing and perfect and​ you are a total sweetheart. Plus you contribute so much to the community with all of your events. Top-notch writing, perfect mun, and well-developed muse. What's not to love?))

heck i think your muses are amazing and perfect and you are a total sweetheart too! even if we don’t talk or interact a bunch, i still LOVE IT when we do!! in fact, if i had to make a list of people in this fandom i considered good friends you’d be on the list tbh >u< thank you!

AND THAT’S A WRAP!

THANK YOU ALL AGAIN! SO MUCH!!
