Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will
#svsss#scum villian self saving system#shen qingqiu#shen yuan#the fact that people think scum villain#-a series that examines and criticizes common tropes in fiction-#is somehow against criticism or being a little hater is wild to me#especially since shen qingqiu never gets punished for being a hater#heck- he's still a little hater by the end of the series#he mostly gets punished for treating life like a play and like he and the people around him are characters#(or in other words- he suffers for denying his own wants and emotions and his own sense of empathy)#I think some of y'all underestimate how much writing/art is inspired by creaters being little haters#like example off the top of my head-#the author of Iron Widow has been pretty vocal about the book being inspired by their hatred of Darling in the Franxx#I think my interpretation of Shen Yuan's transmigration is also supported by the fact that this series is an examines writing processes#side note- though i understand why people say Shen Yuan is lazy and think its a valid take it still doesnt sit right with me#i am probably biased because my own experiences with chronic pain and depression and isolation#but ya- i dont think Shen Yuan is lazy so much as he is deeply lonely and feels purposeless after denying parts of himself for 20ish years#like yall remember the online fandom boom from covid right?#being stuck completely alone in bed while feeling like shit for 20 days straight does shit to your brain#the fact that no one came to check on him + he wasn't exactly upset about leaving anyone behind supports the isolation interpretation too#+in the skinner demon arc he describes his life of being a faker/inability to stop being a faker now that he's Shen Qingqiu#as “so bland he's tempted to throw salt on himself” and “all he could do is lay around and wait for death” (<-paraphrasing)#bro wants to be doing stuff but is stuck in paralysis from repeatedly following scrips made by other people#another point on “Shen Yuan isn’t lazy” is just the sheer amount of studying that man does#also he did graduate college- how lazy can he really be#he doesnt know what hes doing but he at least tries to actively train his students#and he actually works on improving his own cultivation + spends quite a bit of time preping the mushroom body thing#+he's experiencing bouts of debilitating chronic pain throughout all this#but ya tldr: Shen Yuan's transmigration is an encouragement to write and not a punishment and also i dont think its fair to call him lazy

Okay, but decepticon Prowl didn't plan and prepare and properly defect from the decpticons, he was thrown out.
The ask that mentioned him being a bad shot got me thinking.
We rarely see Prowl as a bad shot, so either one of two things are going on
1.) Prowl is just not emtionally invested in this fight and is running too many numbers for something else but he has to be here against his will
2.) Prowl is intentionally shooting certain deceptions because "they threaten the future of the decepticons" (they threaten and beat up Prowl)
So after enough "bad shots" the grunts of the decepticon base Prowl was stationed on (as barricade) beat him up, and throw him out. Prowl is annoyed by this because obviously he is important but he can't reveal himself without ruining his cover. So he goes planet hitch-hiking to get back to Megatron and obviously get reinstated and protection.
While planet hopping, "Barricade" meets Jazz who is currently under the name of Meiser since he is infiltrating and taking a look at some decepticon territory. Barricade does not know that Meiser has been following him since he got thrown out. Barricade also does not know that Meiser has his suspicions about who he is. Afterall, there aren't a lof of praxians left in the deception forces, and this one has some dumb gold paint on his cheveron that has already started to flake and show red in these harsh outdoor conditions.
Barricade does think that Meiser is either an autobot spy (since he is not accounted for in any of Prowl's databases and battlefield simulations), or has a major glitch in his logic circuits that got him kicked out and now desperate for any social interaction (which must be the reason why he is hanging around Barricade, since no one ever actually willingly hung out around him before, and especially nobody hangs out with Prowl).
Things keep happening that try to kill "Barricade". But luckly clumsy Meiser is right there to "accidentally" shoot the problem right in the processor. Barricade does not remember Meiser having a gun on him. Or a knife. Or that feral of a smile. But anyways he has places to be and a mech to see.
Prowl intends on turning in Meiser-the-spy or just ordering the death of Meiser-the-idiot once he gets back to Megatron. Especially since through this adventure, Prowl has learned that Meiser will listen to a long thought out and perfect plan, then immidiately go do his own thing, so he can't be used as some disposable pawn in one of Prowls plans.
Evnetually Prowl gets back to Megatron. It is unfortunate that this regrouping happens on an open battle-field, but Prowl predicts that the decepticons will have to make a hastly retreat in 27.8 joors and does not want to miss his ride home. He expects to be welcomed by Megatron, updated on all battle field data, and then sent to the safety of the back of the lines to go sip a cube and win this battle.
Except Megatron has noticed that decepticons tend to have more friendly fire where ever he sends Prowl. And Prowl has already given him predictions and battle maps and troop movement plans for the next 100 vorn. And honestly? Megatron has wanted to punch Prowl for a while now.
So he does just that. One moment Prowl is clearing his vocalizer to get his attention while he is OBVIOSLY busy beating up an autobot. And the next moment Prowl is 12 feets away with a large fist-sized crater in his chest. Serves that nerd right.
Prowl goes offline. Not from the injury. But from the glitch that spawned when Megatron didn't welcome him back and start a much needed debreif.
Anyways, Prowl wakes up in the autobot medbay.
HELP, oh you all really don't like Prowl and want him punched ahagsgga
In my mind it's hard to turn events to that. You see, I think Megatron would treat Prowl like autobots treat Ratchet. Megatron is ruthless in the way he treats his warriors, they fight for "freedom" so someone's life is worth it. Prowl always gives 99% successful plan with minimal risks. And these plans work because Megatron accepts them. Decepticons can say nothing but they hate "Prowl" behind all these plans, because they can see that they are turning in even more bugs than they were before. Before it looked at least like a live or die battle. Now it is a straight order of dying in their cases. But hey, ahah, who is this "Prowl"? There is only Barricade and a possibility of his hidden identity leaking, it's just Megatron can't keep his optics on him 24/7 so making him second identity is a good way of preventing him from instant death. I actually want to think of the ways Starscream could switch his attention to Prowl and not like him because he can't be bribed. "With such tactician even I can be a leader" and Prowl just "-_-".
Prowl is left without voice, tracking, comms, everything is done to not let Megatron find him, but he will search for him even if everyone tells him he is dead. Prowl just need to fix everything and not let others find any info on him and somehow leave to send a signal. So I bet there are much more layers to all of that. For Megatron to want to punch him he needs to be like Starscream or be a Sentinel Prime.
Pffht, imagine you see a very beaten up Decepticon, clearly beaten up by his own people. Everything that allows to track you is ripped off. What does it mean? They wanted to get rid of him while making it look like he died of accident in the end, they got all they needed from him and left him to suffer. Means he had something valuable within him and clearly will be more anticipating in the interrogation with autobots. Revenge takes a place, wouldn't it? So even if Jazz is in a good condition and finds him, he clearly will bring him to Autobot base right away. Prowl will not search the way on his own, he will be thrown out where it is impossible to get out by his own, Junkion, so his priority also will be to get saved even if go with autobots with the possibility of revealing his identity and he will make everything to not let it happen
#I read Decepticon Prowl by Hours_Gone_By and that's what I meant#Megatron targeted Praxus when Prowl was taken hostage. Why? Is it a paranoia telling that Prowl will betray you and threaten him?#There was mention to shorten Energon to not let one of the plans Prowl has possession to to happen#But this is so stupid of him to turn a tactician who can make the best out of bots with abilities to turn them against you#While he knows EVERYTHING about your plans and so on. You are a lead tactician of course you do.#And he just straight away bombs Praxus and it has barely any benefit behind it beside making Prowl break his agreement too if he broke his.#He wasn't even searching for him. They have seekers. They have constructicons. Prowl didn't seem like he was restricted enough to not help#Agh yep.#And then Prowl courts Jazz because he thought Jazz did. A?.. I mean. It looked out of context for me ahah#Idk. I can't feel characterizations#Oh Jabberish made snippets of reverse for Prowl decepticon 👀#My head is a mess don't mind me

i have a theory about shinji, gin, and aizen, but i'm not really sure how to word it.
we never really see shinji and gin interact all that much, which makes sense bc both of them have significantly more important relationships with aizen, but at the same time it's a little odd how much there isn't.
like. gin cut hiyori in half. shinji is understandably pissed about that, but he aims that anger at aizen - and this seems to be one of the very few things in the bleach world that honestly isn't on him bc he never told gin to do that, he never even implied it. hiyori was never a threat to him. hell, we don't even know if she was charging in the right direction; if anything, attacking her implies that she was which is a really stupid thing to do when you're surrounded by a bunch of people who super want you dead and would kill you if they could be sure you weren't tricking them into stabbing each other (ofc it could also be a fakeout but still)
but i don't remember shinji's beef ever really being with gin, even tho he didn't seem to anticipate that gin was working with aizen the whole time during tbtp. so like does he feel responsibility there? cuz gin went straight from academy to 3rd seat and shinji could plausibly feel like that sent him right to aizen bc he doesn't know that gin was always aiming for that. did he blame himself? does he feel like he should've seen it coming? does he still see him as some weird genius kid? does he just view gin as an extension of aizen, which is both dehumanizing to an extent but also entirely fair bc gin did that to himself?
the thing is, since we never really see them interact much, it's kind of only interesting on shinji's side of things, bc gin doesn't really care about much outside of whatever the fuck he thought he was doing and the version of rangiku that he has in his head who needs back something that the real one doesn't ever seem to have realized she lost to begin with. gin's so disconnected with basically everybody that most of the time you can usually assume his thoughts are just "lol. lmao" and there's no reason to think that doesn't extend to shinji as well (gin has deep thoughts on: aizen, ichigo, and matsumoto (massive asterisk on that one ofc) and i think everyone else is kinda set dressing to him lmao the guy is Fucked Up)
anyway i think it's interesting to toy around with that relationship as it was in reality as well as how it might've been perceived, but also in the sense of both of them being sort of opposite ends of the manchild spectrum - shinji leans into his childish side but still has a fairly adult worldview, and gin is able to pull off maturity to an extent but was never able to escape a deeply childish mindset
#bleach#meta#hirako shinji#ichimaru gin#aizen sousuke#sarugaki hiyori#matsumoto rangiku#kurosaki ichigo#this whole post should also come with a huge asterisk that i'm deeply critical of gin's backstory in general and usually try to ignore it#but. since it is canon. it is a part of this post#and yes btw kira is absolutely included in the ''lol. lmao'' part of gin's fucked up little head#i should also note that to shinji it's very possible gin's situation looks like. uh. well grooming kinda#so he might view gin as a victim that he could've saved but can't anymore bc. well. he has jackass-itis now and it's terminal sad to say#but seriously the fifth division was involved with the academy right?#so this super genius kid comes out of nowhere. graduates in a sixth of the usual time. jumps into one of the highest ranks available.#third seat mysteriously went missing juuuuust in time for gin to snatch that seat up too. quite the coincidence#so now he's suddenly aizen's immediate subordinate. and seems to get along with him better than you'd expect for a brand new graduate.#but aizen worked in the academy - he was a hugely popular teacher#so maybe shinji saw gin trotting along behind aizen in the middle of getting hollowfied and thought ''well shit that's on me''#it wasn't ofc. there was no way he could've known or done anything and neither gin nor aizen would've let him know enough to try#but he doesn't know that himself and unless aizen decides to share then he just. never will#and gin will never care bc he fucked himself up so badly idk if he even really knew how to care anymore

A Biltmore Christmas may be the first Hallmark movie to drive me to fanfic.
#hallmark#a biltmore christmas#time travel#WHERE IS MY POST-CREDITS SCENE SHOWING HOW MARGARET REACTS???#she was one of the best parts of the movie!#you need at least five minutes of her screaming for joy!#also clearly there was a conspiracy of people in the past who knew about the time travel thing so how did that work?#what about that bearded guy on the crew who was CLEARLY another time traveler?#(there is no way that facial hair came from 1947)#also where does the relationship go from there?#how do you adjust?#does tour guide riker help out?#so many unanswered questions can fit into the last scenes of that film and i need answers#also just overall: thanks to people who said this one was worth seeking out because my goodness what a delight#that movie oozed charm#i think maybe my true core fictional love is classic '30s/'40s film because i was digging that vibe#the banter! the patter! the zingers! the perfect blend of cynicism and sentimentality#some of the background stuff was too modern but also some was spot on#that guy who played claude looks like he was born to be a classic Hollywood film star#the leading lady did not fit the vibe at all but she had great chemistry with the movie's leads so i can see why they cast her#the old-timey writer dude was charming#the main lady might be a new favorite hallmark actress (there's only one other on the list)#(watched part of a different film with her in it and she seems to put some of that classic hollywood sass into her roles)#i wasn't sold on the male lead at first but the writing came through for him#when he sits in the chair behind her! when he's trying to guess her personality traits?#charming and absolutely spot-on for the vibe#(the fact that they cast hallmark regulars in the remake is hilarious and also sad because it looks so much worse than the original)#anyway great time had a blast will definitely be rewatching

Shinsou had a crush on you since like, young kids days and never thought you noticed him, but that was good cause maybe you thought he was a weird kid, so once he beefed up and finally got the confidence to talk to you it gets shut right tf back down when you're like "Of course i remember you!"
I don't know which part is worse............................ Shinso being so absorbed in his own supposed loser-hood in his youth that he essentially ignored you for 5-10 years while he was working out his self esteem issues ... or the fact that you not only DO remember him, berry well at that, but don't really think anything of it because you thought HE was kinda... a jerk for never being nice to you back.
(Cuz on one hand, you're so sweet, smiling at him when he approaches you, genuinely, just like you did back when you were both under ten and you'd smile at him from the other side of the park... but on the other hand, you don't hesitate to turn right back to your own friends after he barely manages to answer your "how have you been" question and you give him pity eyes like you still think he's a shy headass.
It's just... he doesn't want to fuck it up a second time and lose his momentum... but all the confidence he put into the moment deflated the second he realized you were even more beautiful and more kind than he remembered you and it got him tripping over his words)
ANYWAY then there's another 2-4 months of him trying to get your number just to be a fool over text before even managing to convince you he's worth a fucking damn LOL.
(And he is worth a damn, so much more than a damn because he's willing to give anything and everything up for you but... doesn't know how to say it in a way that wouldn't scare you off for good...
Not to mention he's so fucking bad at texting. Yes, his dry humor is funny as hell but he's not trying to be funny with you, he's trying to WOO you and so the whole thing is just him making excuses to reach out to you even tho texting first for him is like plucking ass hair.)
#shinso#no bc shy people.... i love them but ... put in the work y'all i am doing all this talking for what???#to be silently appreciated? no. I have my own issues too !!! and u don't see me hesitating to speak !!!!!!#<- how i imagine this reader bc shy ppl grate on me sometimes with feeling unable or scared to talk#so anyway being shy bites shinso in the BEHIND bc he didn't realize he wasn't just... a loser nobody saw...#but a loser everyone saw as being... mean. for not wanting to talk to them#even tho i know you were kind and gentle to him#he was never able to reciprocate out of feeling like he wasn't good enough#DISASTER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#anyway he's sexxy af now but you just think it's made him more self-absorbed#until you actually get to know him again and it turns out you were wrong too#LMAO I LOVE THIS DISASTER RELATIONSHIP#sorry if this went in a totally weird direction anon i couldnt help myself !!#caitie things#anon#gen

The fact that there are so many lore inconsistencies in Dr Who is sometimes a good thing actually because it means I feel justified in having headcanons that vastly and grossly contradict show canon. If the writers can ignore things they don't like why can't I.
#for example#as a classic who girlie i love love love the fact that the doctor was basically always written as aroace#partially because as an acespec I like it#and like a character doesn't need romance for their relationships to be interesting#but also because there was something so perfect about the fact that like#even if a companion did fall in love with him he was always unattainable#or like even if he wasn't completely aroace in human terms he was only attracted to other time lords (because doctor/romana i can accept)#because the truth that all companions run into is that nobody can have a lasting relationship with the doctor#like platonic relationships too i mean#they always die or get left behind#like sarah jane's goodbye was... ough#and they can also never know him in the way they want to#because he has so many secrets and so much more intelligence#and the fact that they can't have a romantic/sexual relationship with him even if they want to fits nicely#with the fact that the companion-doctor relationship does not fit within relationship norms#so for this reason i don't like the whole ten/rose thing#or the fact that she kind of gets to spend forever with him (or his clone at least)#he's supposed to leave#because he can't love a human forever#they die so quickly#so yeah I have basically erased all of that from my headcanon#doctor who

Swifty and Bumlets sell together, which means passer bys are always in for the charm of the pair of them. Their kind smiles and charming personalities coming forth to woo whoever into buying a pape. Ocassionally they pick wild flowers to hand out with the papers, their charm not immune to even husbands running late from work, "and a flower for the other half?" Swifty asks and who would be a fool to not fall for their perfectly worked out salespitch, even coming back to the lodging house with a few flowers left over :)
Took a bit to answer because I really wanted to write something with it because it's just so cute! I'd look forward to ideas like this in my askbox more often, I just love my boys. Not quite happy with the end, but it's still nice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
While Skittery, Bumlets and Swifty were inseparable on most occasions, selling wasn’t one of them. As Tumbler was both difficult to keep track of and very attached to Skittery, it was easiest to have their littlest little sell with Skittery which also immensely increased the often grouchy boy’s sales as he had the cutest kid with the biggest pleading eyes with him.
Since 4 newsies selling close to one place really wasn’t profitable, they split up in groups of two most of the time, Bumlets and Swifty as well as Tumbler and Skittery – sometimes Flipper begged Bumlets to sell with him, but that wasn’t too often. The thing about Bumlets and Swifty selling together was that they could both talk their way out of most trouble and knew how to use those charms well for selling too.
And as much as Bumlets usually didn’t need to talk himself out of trouble, he had more than enough use for his charms with bailing Swifty out too, if need be.
But that day there hadn’t been any trouble – Bumlets just turned a blind eye as Swifty lifted a passerby of his pocket watch because no matter how often he told him it was dangerous, he wouldn’t stop anyways – instead of trouble they actually found themselves selling even better than usual. They sold close to a park and, thinking back to his parents and how his mother had loved it if his father had come home with a flower he’d picked up on the way home from work, Bumlets thought they might even make a good selling day into a great one.
He and Swifty gathered some of the wildflowers growing in the grass, enjoying the rare minutes in nature in a city as big and bustling as New York before going back to work.
“Miss, care for a pape and a flower?”, Bumlets asked a well-dressed young lady walking by, upselling his sales pitch with: “I’d even give you two flowers, one couldn’t possibly match your beauty, Miss.”
She giggled, flattered, and took the pape and flowers for two pennies, holding both close to her heart and smiling even wider as Bumlets slightly bowed to her with a grin before going back to selling. Skittery would probably say something about overselling it, but she was a pretty lady, and no one had to know he’d never do more than exchange some flowery words for he already had someone.
“A pape fer yourself and a flower for the other half?”, he heard Swifty call out to a man passing by him who quickly stopped, looking surprised for a moment before switching to relief.
“Exactly what I need right now, kid. Might make her less mad I couldn’t get outta work sooner.”
He took the newspaper and flowers and Swifty called after him: “Good luck on that, mister!” It made Bumlets smile, even if he saw Swifty grab a note poking out of some bank worker’s pocket with the hand he wasn’t waving after the man who’d just bought the pape from him.
They sold all of their papes and most of the flowers by evening and after stopping by where Swifty usually peddled his ‘extra earnings’ and made them into money, they walked back to the lodge, Bumlets carefully holding the few flowers they had left. They still looked nice, and he was sure Kloppman would appreciate them.
He gave the superintendent all of them except two, hiding them away quickly, and Kloppman shook his head trying to find a small vase in his cupboards. Leaving him to it, Bumlets pulled Swifty over to where Skittery sat at the windowsill, keeping watch over Tumbler playing swords with Les.
Before he could react, Bumlets pushed one of the flowers in his hand, the other going to Swifty. “Hope your day was good.”
“Just got better.”, Skittery murmured, looking at the small red flower, turning it in his hand. “Thanks, Bum.”
#newsies#92sies#1992sies#my writing#bumlets newsies#swifty newsies#bumswiftery newsies#skittery newsies#I first wanted Swifty or Bumlets to put a flower behind Skittery's ear but wasn't really working#thought about Swifty having a second flower and doing it and all but eh didn't work#so this#hope you also enjoy it :)#Bumlets and Swifty really are so charming when selling#Jack does sell good too don't get me wrong but they just have something about them

Hear me out (or don't... it's fine I'm just venting and mean) yeah um I don't believe Chakotay was saved in Prod*gy s2.
#the 'time travel' makes no sense when you think on it. What happened to Prime Chakotay? He got killed they showed that.#At the end s1 Janeway finds an 'alternate chakotay in an alternate timeline' and that's the one they go and get#we saw the original get merc'd in the message. That ACTUALLY happened. Lmao.....#They didn't prevent THAT death because they didn't go to THAT Solum with the Infinity and stop it from happening#instead it was 'ALTERNATE#' implying other.#OG Chakotay wasn't taken over by the alternative one either nothing suggests that was the direction for him in s2#they didn't do anything like 'well you see chakotay because at the end of s2 when we converged timestreams you have merged with your other'#if they did want to recover the original from s1 then keep that clear instead of being convoluted dont use an alternate timeline wtf#instead the plot was focused on gywns stupid fucking paradox plot and her being fixed#chakotay was the one in a paradox too did that not matter nah dw about it he had to die for this outcome or someshit lmao why#In the extended message given to admiral janeway it shows him clearly getting left behind and surrounded. Sadly no one intervened.#I dont understand why they couldnt have just made s2 about his rescue alone IF they took their time it wouldnt be so difficult#to follow#above that the one they rescued was ruined by the 10 year gap so he wasn't 'saved' at all. God i hate s2 when you break it apart#I dunno the more i look at s2 Janeway and Chakotay the more upsetting it is. Janeway would NOT have settled for an imposter.#everyone going goo-goo gaa gaa over s2 but it's sloppy af imo and undermines a huge portion voyagers struggles#id really like them to flatly lay out their ideas because literally nothing ive heard explains the story or choices of s2 with conviction#instead it's oh clap for wesley or the new vulcan and other references yay#describe to me your timetravel clearly and i'll happily take a seat on it (there is still other crap stuff mind you)#this is the most repressed shit i my head i swear#im angry because s1 is so clearly mapped out to a brilliant degree and for whatever reason it's not in s2#i can see through it#insultingly people are eating it up and claiming it's better than ever nah dawg embarrassing#there are nice ideas inside s2 but they arent adequately rewarded#it doesnt compare to the timetravel in other trek because they kept it clear#i mean it could have been an interesting parallel to endgame but in the end janeway didnt even rescue him lmao they dropped her#why bother building up this mission only for her to give up and go 'i'll hand it over because im told to'. Janeway had fuck all this season#let alone settle for not fixing her own timeline and her own friends deadly circumstance dw just grab another one from the shelf i guess#the emotional fallout was absolutely missed because they didnt elaborate on anything. Plenty of show but no substance from the characters

“Your kindness is imprinted upon us. You are entirely brave and brimming with love when there is fear and malice roaming this world. We profoundly care for you, sweet heart.”
@naffeclipse CAN YOU HEAR ME SCREAMING?
comic callbacks: three names, clever heart, oops trauma
#post let luce#dcamv#cryptid sightings#cryptid sightings spoilers#cryptid!moon#cryptid!sun#cryptid!eclipse#my art#okay okay okay so. I'm so entirely normal about this chapter#just in case leaving a 2.7K word comment wasn't enough of an indicator#but yeah I. I tried to make it a big one#reused a couple panels as callbacks to former comics - two from the “names” one because WE GOT ECLIPSE NAMEDROP#and also bc pale glow n all#(the other two being “clever heart” and “oops trauma” for dead eyed moon and first good eclipse glimpse)#could reuse many of the line screenshots I used before but added a couple else too#but felt nice to use the lines I used in the “Demon behind you” comic hehe#colored in the patches for moon again too for the imprinted kindness#and of course the heartbeat <3
