Quick update on "Like a Parody of Tantalus" – it's currently over 6,000+ words and I'm still not done. OTL
I was hoping to cover a bit of stuff post-Fuga related to Chume Labs, but I may have to dial things back solely because I feel like my knowledge of that era of their content isn't extensive enough to do it justice. Apart from that, I'm happy with what I have so far and I'm excited for whenever it's finished so I can see people's reaction to it.
#i talk#fic talk#I've been very busy lately and having a Real Rough Time (and my ADHD certainly isn't helping)#but I am still chipping away at it#I'm really trying to get this chapter right because Fuga is a big thing for so many people#so I want to do it justice#I like how it's turning out but I was really hoping to include some Chume Labs stuff#ah well. I'll use what I have at least#I've had folks infodump a bit about it to me but it's just not the same as intimately knowing the content#so I feel like I wouldnt do that justice#But like I said we'll see!#I am also undecided on whether Cell / Cellbit is a cat hybrid or not in this fic#might just put it to a vote lol#anyways goodnight all

Someone being extremely annoying in the replies of my flowey and clover gif and I'm running out of patience 😭
#'well I THINK theyd just kill everyone then never reset in neutral' 'WE decide who clover is at heart' can you not#like. this is a piece of fanart. did you really just reply to tell me you don't like my headcanons or what#like... at least mention the art of you're gonna go on a several reply stint of this...#and im sorry but mmmmh... bad takes. frisk is morally ambiguous and its impossible to know what they'd do without our influence at this tim#but its a. fucking HUGE plot point in yellow neutral that we know what clover does without influence. without us. without flowey.#they stay w toriel indefinitely...#there's wiggle room for why and that's interesting. but its very clear vengeance wouldnt normally be their driving force#and that in itself is interesting! do we make them give into their anger? warp their sense of justice?#are they just going through the motions of getting this done now that they've ended up on this path?#that's all way more interesting to discuss than what feels like just treating them as a nothing character to treat as an insert#they did say its bc they dont like considering vengeance canon but that stumps me even more#why do you think we mold them then????#and idk if the devs said anything about it being noncanon but i haven't heard so#(and the devs also said Clover's gender is 'up to interpretation' and that's stupid so i also just don't care I'm sorry)#I'd rather embrace all routes and consider what that can mean for the characters#vengeance being unrealistic for ut means nothing when NONE of uty is realistic for ut#it's just a cool what if kinda story

accidentally making all of kim's skills fantasy creatures. Kinetic Dressage is a centaur, Volta do Mar is a siren/angel thing, and now Vice is a genie. this doesn't make sense for his character!! stop this immediately!!
#ourgh!! kim would have skills that look more normal than harry's i think. more wispy than anything. but no. we got a horse. ourhg.#its because dressage refers to a horse competition!!! and volta is about returning from the sea!! and vice is keeping wishes trapped!!#and its SYMBOLIC BUT ITS NOT FITTING FOR KIM!!! RAUGH...#it would be funny and i could make it work somewhat if i make it so all the skills think they're so fucking normal. theyre all these#mythical beings but theyre like ''no dont think about that. we're normal. don't look at our wings and hooves and shit we're so normal.''#but still no. it feels wrong. i dont know what im doing u-u i have to think about what makes sense for him and this isn't doing it justice#ourgh. i want to make them eccentric enough to be skills but i dont want them to be like. too fantastical. it just wouldnt make sense#its not in character for him!! most of harry's skills are all more human-like than this. orugh this is so hard :']#originally these had much more self-deprecating tags but i realized it's probably because its late and im tired so im cool im chillin.#chemi chats

We won't ever get it, but I think it would've been cool to see an antagonist/client who hates Edgeworth specifically because of what he did as von Karma's student. Like someone whose loved one -- I want to say 'sister' because AA, but I think it'd be pretty cool if it was their father -- was wrongly convicted and given the death sentence because he silenced witnesses or presented faulty evidence or something similar, and there's no fix to it. The case ends with the truth being revealed and ringing hollow, because they don't want revenge, not really; maybe they just want the verdict overturned, but even that doesn't change anything, because the person is gone, and whatever damage could have been done has been done, and they just have to live with it, all of them. I think it'd be interesting to see how Edgeworth and the people around him handle that confrontation -- the idea that you can change and try to fix your mistakes the best you can, but there are some things you'll never be able to atone for. Not really. And you just have to keep living.
#and for phoenix especially the idea that you can love 'monsters' because it wasnt an accident that led to the wrong verdict being handed#it was a choice. a choice edgeworth made just like all the people whose crimes phoenix unveiled in court with triumph and fanfare#because it was justice.#miles edgeworth#phoenix wright#ace attorney#ace attorney phoenix wright#i feel like everyone knows edgeworth's done things to get innocent people convicted but they don't /know/ it you know?#we've never had to look at the effects of that head on and decide for ourselves how guilty or innocent those actions make edgeworth#dgs kind of did something like this with uhh spoilers major spoilers here look away barok and kazuma but theirs is slightly different#spoilers over. i'd like to think the client/rival is really lovely too. they obviously despise edgeworth but it's not like antagonistic#or particularly vengeful simply because there's no point. of course it ends with everyone reaffirming their loyalty to edgeworth#but i think it should feel at least a little lacking.#ofc a story like this wouldnt work any time after aai because edgeworth has come to his own conclusions about this by then#so i think it would have had to been before jfa or during jfa if at all which is why i said would've been nice#though i do think there's something to be found in the idea of him having settled everything and living positively only for this case#to come cleave his life in two. i think there's something to be said about how people who've wronged a person can go on to live happily#while you're left picking up the pieces of a broken life and pushing forwards because you have to. always carrying a pain you're never able#to reconcile. i think that's pretty interesting too#i think it'd be interesting if it was a client and if phoenix didnt know at first that he was going to try and oveturn edgeworth's case#it's only partway he realises and then he gets upset/defensive thinking it's some weird ploy to undermine either of them#but the client is just confused and tells him they came to him because he was good and he can refuse if he wants to.#and you have to choose to continue. to doubt edgeworth. idk i just think it would have been fun

Do I go to my bullshit 'disciplinary hearing' stoned as shit
#.txt#i think it would be funny#its like. idk what are they gonna say in there#'hmmm are you gonna do it again? do you feel REALLY bad about it? do you feel terrible and like shit and will never do it again?'#like what are we even doing here#youre gonna guilt me into not smoking weed? youre gonna talk it out with me???#the fundamental issue is that again. its not about the rules its not about the laws its not about right or wrong#its about the fact that theres a moral premium placed on sobriety ESP as it relates to weed#its just inherently wrong to smoke weed bcs its not abt law its abt order and power#the point is that the system doesnt criminalize weed through laws that say weed is illegal#it criminalizes weed by doing THIS#by giving the power to specific people to carry out 'justice' it now means that justice isn't written down it's interpreted by cops#and because cops are just protectors of the status quo and private property that means the interests of the status quo and private property#are really what governs the land#not whats just or moral or correct or wrong its abt what the cop is feeeling like at the moment#catch a cop on a bad day and theyll write a ticket they wouldnt have written on a good day#catch a cop who just happens to be one of these 'individual racists' and theyre enforcing laws other cops wont#the system is so busted and corrupt and unmonitored#all justice in america is unequal justice

I hate this attitude so much! This argument is stolen from disability and poc activists who have been asking for a long time for people playing disabled characters or characters from a particular ethnic background to actually be from these groups. You'll notice this actually makes total sense!
While not having scarjo play your poc is a good starting point, casting a chinese actor to play a vietnamese character because "its close enough for the white people in the audience" is still a problem. And casting accurately solves many many problems. Eg when your writer/costumer/set designer messes up the actor knows and corrections can be made. When they need to act vietnamese can.
Same goes for disability. So many autistic people hate shows about us because allistics are really bad at playing us! They can do stereotypes and act kooky enough to satisfy allistic audiences but like in the above example that means using us as objects while ignoring us as part of the audience. You have any idea how often we see mobility aids used dangerously wrong on tv? Or how often characters are supposed to have an illness but they don't have any of the symptoms! A disabled actor has symptoms! Their aids are real! And when things are depicted as real then we exist
But we don't have these same reasons for queer characters. Sure there is a queer culture, but crucially not all queer people are part of the community. There is no way to act queer the way there is to act muslim or italian, because the only thing we all have in common is being different. We come from everywhere, and we act every way. Some of us try to fit in with our communities of origin, some of us try to fit into the queer community. Neither way is right or wrong. Anyone can be queer and we can be anyone.
There are times when casting queer actors might make sense, like for a visibly trans character, but if they're not visibly trans cis people can do that. And I always like it when queer people are in things because give us money, but we can be anyone so anyone can be us
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/6fcbd1758a411fc13fea626410c69245/311cb2336d2c039c-df/s640x960/38557589197f2fe825eca461693da68ae8187b0b.jpg)
#to elaborate a lil on the cis people playing trans characters#it is both accurate and pro trans to have people like zendaya play trans women#because a. trans ppl look like that. b. yes random man you can be attracted to trans women it happens all the time chill#but if someone wanted to write a story about a trans person who stays closeted every day of their whole lives#i feel like in most cases youd have to have a cis person play them? that sounds like such a dysphoric and difficult roll to play while trans#but yeah plenty of times queer actors play queer characters in deeply unqueer stories#because what matters is that the writing is queer#this is the same reason that my casting a chinese person to play a vietnamese character wouldnt really matter so much#if the entire thing was made in vietnam#if the writers director and other behind the scenes people were all disabled#than i bet they could have an abled actor do a great job playing someone with cerebral palsy or smth#depends on the disability but they would pick one that could be mimicked yk?#but yeah as always context matters the most and this awful coopting of nonqueer activist rhetoric#has had predictably disastrous effects ie forcing ppl to come out#this is as always why ppl who join social justice communities but dont understand theory#behind things#need to be quiet and LISTEN#anyway ty for coming to my tedtalk

man i havent seen like anybody talking about it--probably because i do my level best to block every transphobe i can find and purposefully avoid twitter as much as possible--or else i wouldnt say anything but the sophie from mars situation seriously has been breaking my brain. i dont wanna be the exact guy i would criticize in this situation and shift focus from the victims but i truly thought she was one of the most incisive political commentators on youtube, i actively looked forward to her perspectives & shared them with so many people around me. its hard on some level to not feel shocked and blindsided particularly because she was someone who consistently and articulately spoke about abuse and exploitation.
#myposts#not to make this about myself <- guy living inside a single experiential perspective#its just on some level ive been thinking about notions of justice for lack of a better term#so its like . okay im in the process of divesting myself psychically from what justice looks like that is retributive and carceral etc#and the thing im coming up against here is like. not that? its not an instinctive 'heres what should be Done with her'#its a complete absence of that. its a what can i do. i feel like i have an obligation of some sort but i dont know what it is#and i know thats a holdover of like the mob justice aspect of this. i need to be fuming and malding and destroying her career#and make her never come back raaaargh. i dont think that. i cant even really bring myself to i have such respect for her#its literally just like. this completely sucks? and i want it to be made right on some level but i dont know how to do that#and even if i did i wouldnt be the person to do it. so i kinda have to sit on top of my hands and not think about it??#and also like not think too hard about how thats kinda...a consequence of the fact its happening in a public forum#like the reason you do that is so people see it. not even necessarily to get them that mad but just like you are going to#so its....the only reason i have this feeling is because i have been dragged into this on some level?#and then it is kinda the natural question of why i suppose. but i dont have answers to any of that#i know enough to know that despite the fuming ive seen from people this is how abuse happens or at least how it can happen#and that the solution really cant be just divesting from abusers because thats how it happens#and ironically thats something i feel she really helped me grasp#i dont want to make it an exercise in politics but its really making me think about the politics.

it's the way phoenix isn't as good a person as he might've once liked to believe he was & how, even though he's become better for the people that've become staples of stability in his life, he also has dropped the pretense that he's good enough a person to be above doing things not strictly considered the right thing. it's the way he's self-reflected & come to terms with the fact that yeah there's actually very few proper good people in the world & man, he's just not one of them. he's a decent person, nice, usually, even. he'll be polite to all the right people & try to prove the innocence of innocents & fight against injustice in the courtroom & all that, because he is a decent person. but he's not a good person, at the least not in his own mind, not anymore.
#nick's one of my fav characters of all time but also i have to laugh when i see ppl treat him as this golden boy of criminal justice#oh he'll say pre!disbandment he did shady shit like trespass & steal evidence from crime scenes bc Maya talked him into it#but that's just a convenient & believable excuse to hide behind while. throwing someone else under the bus about it#he'll make a big show of not wanting to go behind the police's back for shit around the kids bc he wants to show a good example#but the second he & maya reunite & are back on a case together all that's dropped & maya hasnt even said a word when nick's climbing a fenc#he makes sure not to do anything outright illegal (at least where he could be caught) but he jumps through a Lot of loopholes#thats not even going into how theres people he straight up does NOT want to defend or deal with because of his own biases#or because he just can't be bothered on the day that he's needed#so it's often someone else who Pushes him into doing the right thing where left to his own devices nick really wouldnt have bothered#there's executive dysfunctions there yes but a Lot of the time it's also just. truly not feeling bothered enough#he is by no means perfect & i will laugh out anyone who insists he's a pure uwu baby whos never done anything wrong#he has done. SO much wrong <3#ooc. butterdog. the dog with the butter.#phoenix. study.

love reblogging Ester's more emotional posts. Surprise! You get an hour or so worth of this poor puppet struggling with themselves
#kismet talks#i recently added some minor commentary in the tags of the stuff i reblogged#and thats kinda fun. i should do it more often#yes it feels cringe but thats okay 💜#if i didnt post my stuff regardless of it feeling cringe#i wouldnt post at all#am i a good writer? not by a long shot#but im quite fond of her. and therefore must do her justice by bringing her into reality#since im this far into the tags anyways#I'll let y'all in on a little (not so) secret#i dont plan the posts ahead of time ALFJSJF#ik! shocking! given theyre so high quality and well developed!!!#/s#i just like them feeling natural#would writing it all out beforehand make it more professional. put together. and generally higher quality?#probably!!#but its technically a creative decision that makes it feel more Ester-like#easier to write emotional posts and break them up into several pieces when you're following the emotional flow#this is a fun creative hobby in my spare time! im allowed to not be professional!#dont tell me its poorly written or I'll cry /j#i would say more but these tags have gone on long enough akgksjf

Hi! I love your fics so much! Gi-hun definitely needs more love, I mean come on, so here it is. Could you maybe write something about the reader being a foreigner and she was in the games when Gi-hun first was and they feel in love there and won together, so now they live in the Pink Motel together and make a plan about the games where Gi-hun returns to the games as a player and reader somehow infiltrates herself into the games by being the triangle guard and watches over them (kind of like what Hwang Jun-ho did) and during the player's rebellion she stays and he captures her along with the other triangle guy and then takes her mask off and Gi-hun realizes that it's her. They reunite really sweetly and she helps him to try and stops the games during the shootout. You could maybe even include the very ending where the Frotman kills Gi-hun's frined, like how would that scene in that case play out.
Thank you so much, love u 💚
FIRST OFF OMG WHAT IS WITH THIS FUCKING AMAZING PLOT IDEA. Seeing this I am going to be honest it's giving me an idea for a 5 part series. I dont want to stuff all this into a quick response a one shot wouldnt do it justice. If you wanna lokwey dm me I'll tag you in the comments , tell you when its done or just look on my page because this is a really good freaking plot idea !!! So imm be cooking this one I love Gi-hun. He is hot daddy. Ngl. 👀 but yeah I should be cooking up a start for this maybe around Friday it should be posted because this is behind 4+ other requests i have but I do want to give this spot light so yall keep looking at my posts !!

I specialize in Phil headcanons and analysis of his character (but especially the headcanons) :D
Okay so I was never really in fandom before I discovered MCYT, and one of the things that just delights me is how it seems that the longer you're in the fandom— three years and counting for me— the more likely you are to spec into some kind of job.
So like I've gone into event running and exchange participation, and then there are people who've specced into becoming archivists, and the people who do the wiki, and the people who run update accounts, and the people who reblog literally every piece of art in the tag for their guys, and the people who update a fic once a week, and the artists who take requests, and the people who organize and run zines, and the people who moderate fandom servers, and the people who liveblog, and the people who run RP blogs, and the tag wranglers and stats analysis people, and the people who do huevember, and the people who sign up for every zine, and like— we're all evolving like eeve pokémons into fandom stage "been here a while", specialization x. I just find that so fun.
So my question is, if you share my specific derangement and you gave yourself a job, what's your specialization What job did you give yourself?
#& i'd be glad to do hcs of other chrs too but i'd scrape around for characterization posts first so i do them as much justice as phil :D#i also write a phil-centric fic atm but i dont update weekly bc The Process forbids it & i'd rather write smth im proud of not smth fast#im also famous in the jse fandom for making AUs and such and have a few qsmp au ideas but mcyt doesnt feel like the kind of fandom to be--#super receptive of that kind of thing. yeah theres AUs but it wouldnt blow up to the degree i felt like it did in the jse community#im also a shitposter ofc

Anyone who knows me knows that I have ALWAYS been a very politically vocal person. I also used to spend a majority of my time on Instagram. But when 2020 hit I became such an unrecognizable person that I had to delete Instagram and cut myself off from everyone just to regain my center and sense of self.
I didn't know it at the time but I think with my autistic sense of justice coupled with my paranoia (like diagnosable, serious paranoia) and how stressful my living situation was at the time, it was the perfect blend for a ticking time bomb. I became so uncontrollably consumed with politics that I would attack anyone and everyone. I was experiencing full mania, posting nonstop on Instagram, arguing with people I followed, cutting off family members, not sleeping, overworking myself protesting, and when I wasnt protesting, I wouldnt leave my bed, all while dealing with the stress of the pandemic, a subpar diet in my neglectful choldhood home, and a lack of space to call my own. Even if I seemed collected on the outside, my insides felt like boiling water. I never got a moment of calm. It was autistic overstimulation amplified. I also felt such a sense of hopeless and really rathered Id be dead than continue trying. All these emotions but I just couldn't stop. I wasn't in control.
After some time, I found my normal again, but it made me so scared to speak out about anything because I didn't want to spiral again. I ignored the news, I muted people who talked about politics, I avoided all things political and any semblance of a political conversation at all costs. I'd never been so quiet before. This was around the time Ukraine and Isreal started becoming the hot topic. You can see it here. All my political posts just stop sometime around 2021. And even though I chose to stop "spreading awareness" about things, I started to feel this immense guilt that I was seemingly not doing my part. Or that my IG account now looked like BLM was a fad I participated in, and I couldn't care less about those pesky Palestinians /sarcasm. All the while, I was dying inside NOT talking about it.
I used that time to read up on the history of the Israel-Palestine conflict, I was reaching out to my high school friends who were now growing families in Palestine, I was trying to think of way to engage in the movement that didn't involve reposting the same 5 Instagram posts that everyone was already sharing, and that didn't involve financial investment as that was SO not a possibility for me. I boycotted what I could, but I was living in Sweden by that time, so it was a boycot by circumstance.
Now, with this whole Banning TikTok debacle, I am just so mad that no one can see that it's a political attack. Ever since 2020, the government has been mad at us for using it as a means of education and organization. That's when the whole subject of banning it arose. We -as in American people - are being punished for utilizing our First Amendment right. That of protesting and organizing (not the stupid misinterpretation of "I can say whatever I want" used by right wingers). It seems like everyone has forgotten that and are just whining about their brainrot being taken away or getting on Twitter to rave about what social media is doing to us. People outside of the US are laughing as if this isn't a modern-day example of mass censorship happening right in front of our eyes. And suddenly, I can feel the boiling water moving up from my toes. Suddenly, I want to slap everyone across the face and get them to wake up. Open your eyes, people! I'm tired of sitting back with this, "we'll there's nothing we can really do that we haven't been doing already" attitude. I want to burn down the white house. I want people to stop treating Luigi Magione like some Robin Hood sex image. I don't want to just settle for this loss of autonomy and progress. I don't want to feel like a minority within a minority within a minority within a minority. What else is there to do when everyone has settled for just dealing?
