I think it would be nice to have the option to hide numbers on ao3. Make it where the 'kudos' and 'hits' number is author-viewable only, have an alternate option for when a list is sorted by such so people can read things based off their tags and preferences rather than see big number go brrrr

I speak as someone with popular fics, it doesn't have to be a requirement but like, an option? This could go for other websites too, tumblr notes and the like

Yall. The devastation of these fires is just so terrible. So many of my friends, coworkers, and family have been evacuated. Fire literally coming right up to their houses and by the grace of God their houses were spared. Unfortunately thousands more were not as lucky.

I am slowly hearing of people I know who have lost everything.

Of people who had no insurance as they were dropped from their insurance as the companies are pulling out from california because they don't want to pay to replace everything that is lost in the damage. Many more being sent notices that they are getting dropped as these fires rage on.

The devastation in my community as most of us are without power. And SoCal Edison only offering a measly 25 dollar voucher to replace the hundreds of dollars worth of food in our refrigerators. Extending the days when they say they will restore our power.

Firefighters tirelessly working to put out these uncontrollable flames. With fire hydrants that have run out of water. Not enough equipment or fire engines for the firefighters to take out to help battle the never ending fires.

Government officials mismanaging funds. Emptying water reservoirs and cutting funding towards the fire department. Refusing to answer questions or be held accountable for their mistakes.

Hospitals without power. Staff unable to get home. Closed for disaster forcing the ambulances to bring patients anywhere else.

I have seen many disasters. But I have never seen any as terrible as this.

Interrupting all my chores for a very important event

“Oh, well you found the right gal, the name’s Saturnia, what’s yours sugar?”

Finally posting my self insert oc Saturnia. But anyway the sparks notes of this first meeting was that Copia needed a horse for his Rats MV and just found out that the ministry had a stable. These stables were old and abandoned and never really been used for years. And now since four horsemen have their horses residing there it’s managed by a unofficial member of the church, Saturnia Verdía. He’s shocked by two things. One, the ministry had stables??? And two.. pretty lady on a horse…

New Years Kiss (Part Three)

“We have a problem! I repeat, we have a problem.” Xander whispered frantically over his phone to Nash. 

“They are headed back to the party! They broke the window!” There was a moment's pause on the other end before Nash said,

“I’m sorry what?” 

“They broke the window and climbed out,” Xander repeated. They’re walking towards you now.” 

“Grayson broke the window?” 

“Well Lyra did but-“ 

“So what do we do now?” Jameson interrupted. It sounded like he had grabbed Nash’s phone from him. 

“That obviously didn’t work.” Xander shrugged, before realizing neither of his brothers could see him.

“I can’t believe we didn't think of the windows.” Jameson sighed. 

“It's an easy mistake,” Nash comforted him. 

“I guess, but what do we do now?”

“Well,” Xander began, laughing nervously. “Grayson is obviously going to be super mad so-” Nash suddenly swore on the other end. 

“Xan, he's coming this way. Text us, ok? We gotta go.” and then Nash hung up. Xander got up and started to pace. What can we do? He thought, running his hands through his hair. Eventually, he shook his head in annoyance. He knew what they had to do. He pulled out his phone and texted his brothers;

I think we need to let Grayson handle this by himself.

Lyra wasn’t sure if she regretted coming to the party or not. She had been having fun, right up until she had been locked in a room with Grayson. But she had to admit.., part of her was curious as to what would happen if she had stayed in the room instead of breaking the window.

What could his brothers have wanted us to do? She wondered. Surely it couldn’t be that bad? But soon, she forgot all about the events in the library. Avery announced over the loudspeakers that it was time for “whole group activities”. Instructed everyone to come to the center of the courtyard. Lyra ended up between Thea, who seemed startled at her presence, and an extremely cheerful girl, who introduced herself as Avery’s best friend, Max.

“The first game!” Avery shouted, “Is Hawthorne hide- and seek.” There were equally cheers and groans from the audience. Lyra frowned in confusion, but luckily, Avery explained the rules. 

“We’re doing this in dresses?” She asked Max, bewildered. Max grinned. “Yep!” 

And so the game began.

At some point, Lyra found herself hiding with Grayson behind a statue, the two of them pressed against each other, breathless with laughter. Lyra tried to tell herself she was just flushed from the cold and not from her proximity to her.

The night went on and on, with them playing many games, until eventually it was 11:45, and Avery had declared that people could do whatever they wanted to prepare for the countdown. Lyra found herself beside Grayson again, seated on some chairs by some crumbling Roman statue of some emperor with a party hat on. 

“Well.” Lyra sighed. “Are you excited for the new year?” Grayson shrugged. 

“I suppose. You?” Lyra nodded.  “What did you think of the party?” 

“It was great! Aside from the whole being locked in a room thing.” Grayson nodded. Suddenly, he swallowed before leaning forward.

“Have you ever had A New Year's kiss, Lyra?” Lyras flushed, wondering what the random subject change was about. “Sorry, what?” 

“Have you ever had a New Year's kiss?” Grayson repeated. Lyra shook her head. Grayson nodded, seemingly accepting her answer. 

“Do you want to?” Lyra’s eyes widened at his forwardness. 

“What?” Grayson sighed.

“I guess… My brothers have been trying to get me to find someone to kiss tonight. I said i didnt want to, but… a part of me is curious.” Lyra hesitated, before shrugging. 

“Sure.” “Really?” “Yeah, why not? I want to know what it feels like too, I guess.” Grayson nodded, opening his mouth, but before he could say anything else, Avery's voice boomed over the loudspeakers.   

“Ok, guys! Thirty seconds! I hope you all have your kissing partners!” Lyra smirked at Grayson.

“We should stand.” She whispered. “Makes it more romantic.  Grayson nodded. They stood.

“Ten!” Avery shouted. Grayson took in a deep breath.

“Nine!” Lyra took a deep breath.

“Eight!” Grayson moved closer

“Seven!” Lyra ignored every thought in her telling her that she was betraying her father. A Hawthorne did this. But maybe she could leave that all in the past. New Year, new beginnings, right?

“Six!” Grayson's hands carefully went to her waist.

“Five!” Lyra grabbed his shoulders.

“Four!” Their body’s we’re almost pressed against each other

“Three!” Lyra stared at those icy blue eyes, trying to decipher the thoughts inside of them.

“Two!” Their lips were almost touching.

“One!” They kissed.

“Happy New Year!” Fireworks went off, both literal and metaphorical. It was everything Lyra wanted and more. It started soft and gentle, Grayson gently pressing his lips to hers, until Lyra got bored. It was New Year after all, and she wanted to have fun. She didn't care if it was improper for a first kiss. She surged forward, running her tongue along the seam of her lips, asking for permission to enter his mouth. He let her, their tongues fighting for dominance. Lyra stood on her toes to get a better angle, their noses brushing. They were both panting. It was more intense than anything else Lyra had ever felt. Finally, they both had to come up for air.

“That was- wow,” Lyra said at last. Grayson nodded in agreement, swallowing.

“Would you… want to do that again?” He asked hesitantly.

Lyra pulled him back in instead of responding.

Part one, part two!

To be honest, a big part of why I dislike the fact that YR doesn’t explicitly address ableism is because I think this fandom in particular would benefit a lot from the sort of discussions a show that takes so much care with these topics could produce.

With the way people talk about Sara’s auDHD, Micke’s addiction, Kristina’s breakdown, and even August’s ED/addiction, it’s clear a lot of you view mental illnesses/disabilities as a choice someone makes or a punishment they can deserve/earn. There’s a difference between one’s disability being used as an excuse and it being a valid reason/explanation for actions the person still has to take responsibility for that few of you seem to recognize or care about, and treating these characters’ disabilities and mental illnesses like something they earned/deserved bc of something they did implies very harmful beliefs about real disabled people. 

On top of those implications, the only disabled/mentally ill character people treat with nuance and care is Wille, the main character who gets all the excuses/explanations. To a disabled person (i.e. me), it appears that some of you refuse to care about/empathize with disabled people on your own. Instead, you view us as morally bad and alien at the first sign of symptoms, and you only change your mind when an explanation you deem satisfactory makes us palatable or relatable to you. Since it's currently Disability Awareness/Pride Month, it's a good time for some of you to learn how to see both us as people and our disability without lengthy justification or respectability politics.

Actually, small ramble about art and reblogging on tumblr

I've noticed that bothers me a bit, specifically around this website's culture around not having algorithm, and to support artists you must reblog the artwork

Specifically: shitposts that took me 30 seconds to make get much more traction than my rendered art

I made this doodle that is not tagged with the source media or the characters, its just a post for their pronouns

This is a doodle that took me a minute to make, and it has just about the same amount of notes that my rendered artwork that took me hours/days to make.

ll reblog my mutual's and friend's artwork and it's the most gorgeous stunning pieces with a lot of hardwork and care put into them, and they're not being as reblogged as much as funny little doodle

I need to re-interate that I don't care about numbers. I've had this blog for 10ish years, I've been around a long time and I've created for longer so I know most followers are people that have been here for a very long time. I am not dismissing the hardwork I've put into my art blog and I hope I don't sound ungrateful

but the 'not-reblogging-artwork' thing is real on here. I'm not saying dont make funny little doodles or 'its so-and-so's fault insert blame here' but it is an observation, and I think we are depriving ourselves of the joys a lot of artists can give

Please do not put others down on this post and be nice to each other!

Tumblr users actually check and confirm what the source says before making claims challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

durge having a medicine profiecincy is likely due to their murder obsession but i like to think theyre just genuinely facinated by medical science like as a hobby. like durge is like running the most unethical exparamental autopsies and surgeries on their victims because "hey theyre dead anyway,". rambling to anyone who will listen about some facinating medical theory they read in a book thicker than their skull, being uncannily adroit with a sewing needle because theyve practiced their stitching technique to perfection, post-tadpole treating and discussing the tadfool's injuries with an off putting ammount of glee.

i like to think a few years post-canon my current durge, Sara, starts studying healing magic to potentially help astarion with his walking in the sun thing and finding her calling as a healer and scholar of healing rare ailments in primarily the undead but that's neither here nor there
