see the problem with planning out the remainder of the fic is that i have so many thoughts and scene ideas and i have like 3 more months of game time to put them in
how am i supposed to lay all this out? i just now got another scene idea to address a current conflict & this idea didnt exist like 2 minutes ago. it���s Impossible to account for everything i’ll be doing.
#speculation nation#discacc shit#i do think i wanna build up a document tho. for like. recording these things#and roughly placing them in sections. aka planning!#something that normal writers do. which i have Not bc i uhhh idk i just havent needed to#now im just staring at the calendar and trying to place things for the next month in discacc lmao#bc i forgot about the cultural festival. the general events around it will have changed but it's still smth to account for#and it does get in the way of what i had in mind previously lol#..............................oh no#just got the idea of like. uh. having a set calendar that records definite events#which would be great for future planning BUT my brain just went like#'haha what if i went and did this for the entirety of the fic beforehand' and. :|#a uhhh project i guess for whenever my next reread is. god help my soul.#like im talking a whole big document that records every set event onto each day it happens#which i followed the calendar pretty closely so it could be recorded. it would just take a lot.#but how cool would it be to see essentially an itemized list of things that happened in discacc and when they happened#my encyclopedic knowledge of my fic is not enough. i need to be able to hold it in my hands in a Document#perhaps this is a better idea than trying to plan out set chapters of discacc bc that is never going to work lol#oh... why am i like this...#lmao me being Like This tho is what's got us this 467k words fic. so like. could be worse!#uhmm i need to work on my quiz before i can do any of this. cant be falling behind in school too much

What are everyone's "abilities" in Survivors? Ryley has good hearing and Milo glows but what do the others have?
!!! YOU HAVE ASKED ME ABOUT MY AU !!! THE FLOODGATES OF YELLING HAVE OPENED!!
OK SO. as u mentioned ryley has good hearing and milo glows. basically,
ryley = good hearing
milo = glowy boy
emily = electric detection (cooler than i describe rn my vocabulary is small)
danby = like emily's but reverse. controls electromagnetic things
roman = night vision
jochi = the most superpower like one, he got quick regeneration.
avery = telepathy!
bart = also kind of telepathy but more like future telepathy. he has future vision.
and i. never thought of one for ozzy actually and at this point i have no idea what to give them that wouldn't have been brought up prior so. u know genetics are weird! they just dont have anything ig. nobody look at me LABDKABDLABD
AND ALSO paul and marg have powers! paul got that peeper enzyme carrier thing, and marg got the very funny power of feeling others emotions. yes that includes the fish. yes this is one of the primary reasons she didnt kill paul over a decade of dealing w him. yes she hates it.
and the vesper haven't been sick long enough to develop anything! or at least thats what im going with bc i havent thought of anything for them yet 😔
AND NOW: LONGER EXPLANATIONS. IM GONNA GET CARRIED AWAY SO ITS UNDER A READ-MORE.
first off on the list: bart! so bart.. kinda has futuristic visions?? but the things he sees are not set in the stone,, as in if he dreams about smth (a lot like ryley can!) it is possible to change those events! most of these visions/telepathy type stuff were bc of the emperor and warpers, and also al-an! once the sea emp died and the warpers all calmed down his powers kind of go away a bit. i think i wrote al-an sort of mentioning it in one chap of awa?? but its only kind of implied. so he has rlly similar powers to avery except he can't tell what others are thinking and he can only kind of tell how his closest friends r feeling. so right now bart pretty much doesn't have powers! he can communicate w the warpers and sea emps much easier than the others tho (he's the only one that can talk to warpers! im not sure he'd get along w them after being hunted down by them for like 12 years though KABDLSBRLSHD)
avery has telepathy! this is because when he first shows up he jokes about having telepathy and i was like "haha. WAIT." and then he got telepathy! i realize its a bad idea to not come up with their powers until as im writing but uhhh well. i never said i was a fantastic writer who's smart. KANROSHROSBF.
he also kind of had marg's empathy ability but wayyy dialed back. he can only tell how other humans are feeling and he can only vaguely understand it as opposed to feeling the emotions himself like marg does. so he can kind of tell how others are feeling and he can tell what theyre thinking about! unless of course for plot convince he can't. strong emotions, especially strong negative emotions (ie. fear) can overwhelm him and makes his powers stop working. and if someone is convinced they're right then he wont b able to tell they're lying/hiding something! yay plot convenience!!
roman has night vision. i have no way of making this sound cool he just straight up can see really well in the dark. like a cat. most of the powers were based off where they originally landed and what would help them in that area! and roman landed in the sparse reef, which is so dark all the time i cry thinking about it. so he has night vision! his poor eyesight is probably all kinds of fucked up now tho.
jochi has regeneration abilities! now i know this might sound a bit much but he just heals from cuts and stuff faster and like. he bones heal fast. and he's more likely to survive smth that might usually kill someone, but its like a 10% higher chance of living nothing too much. he doesn't rlly get scars as much as the others, and its healed his old ones a bit more! this is by far the most unrealistic power of them all, but ya know its alien fish planet game who cares. basically bc his life support systems failed his spine got all fucked up and he got infected faster bc he was barely alive for the first few days and spent a lot of time w bart who was looking after him. power helped fix his back, but he still has a rlly bad limp and pretty much constant pain. big mood there khasar 😔✊
emily can detect electromagnetic waves! works best underwater. kind of like ryley's, but instead of hearing noises she can only hear anything electric, like vehicles or ampeels or heartbeats. gets all fucked up during thunderstorms though sadly. she's the only other one that can kind of hear warpers and can tell when ones about to warp around but she cant actually talk back to them. pretty sick if u ask me tho.
danby has p similar powers to her bc ampeels also spawn in the bulb zone. except he can sense them at a much smaller distance, cant hear warpers, and can control the waves around him! mostly just his own tho. so like, he can quiet his heartbeat or make it stop all together. scary power that he does not know how to control. uh oh. but he can also control other creatures a bit! he's very good at hiding bc of this, which is nice bc he loves to hide from scary things. very big mood once again.
milo is glowing powers! looks a lot like the transparency of a ghost levi or a crabsquid, although he isn't as see through as them. you can def make out like veins but not bones or organs. his powers are activated by touch, the more force behind will create more glow and more transparency! a poke = goes away within a few seconds, a slap = stays for a minute or so. instead of bruises, he just glows until the bruise would normally go away. he's basically a living glowstick. i have another joke for this but i cannot physically convince myself to type it bc its some shit emily would say to him and i cannot embarrass him like that LABDLABDKABAKD
andd ryley's super hearing! can hear basically everything within a mile radius at all times. im bad at math and i don't know the metric system but i think that's like around 1k meters. wait does the metric system use mile already. no. ONCE AGAIN NEVER SAID I WAS SMART.
OK ANYWAYS back on track! this means he can hear about half of the crater at all times. he's gotten p good at blocking out background noise and anything far away. typically only hears everything within like 300 meters of himself. so when he does get back to just hearing everything its like. u ever take out headphones in a busy place and everything kinda hurts for a few seconds bc its so much noise. yeah like that but 500x worse. he's able to concentrate on specific areas within this 1 mile field but if its far away it fucks him up good for a lil while. sorry ryley :(
and then the other two degasi! as mentioned before, paul can carry enzyme like the peepers, but he also can kind of make some himself! only small amounts and it works a bit less than the peeper enzyme does. he does not have to cough it up though thankfully it just like. idk how to describe this idea it can just kind of leave through his skin?? he has like no control over his power at all it just kind does its own thing and he deals w it. this is primarily how he and marg survive for so long w/o dying to kharra!
and finally marguerit! highly empathetic abilities that allow her to feel the emotions of anything around her! i thought it would be funny as hell to give MARGUERIT of all ppl Big Emotion Disease. this is a big reason why she has had yet to murder paul and why she's a lot less murderer like in the au. its hard to kill someone if you. you know. can feel exactly what they are. probably the reason she adopted Dog Bart/Legally Preston Emotionally Not. saw sad puppy and felt too bad to leave him. like paul, she has basically no control over it and is one of the reasons she does NOT want to go back to the survivors base and be around so many other ppl, she'd be feeling like, 13 ppl's emotions at one time. all these powers have fucked up drawbacks dont they??
once again sam, robin, jeff, maxim, and ozzy are (for now at least) not gonna have any powers! mutations are weird and ozzy just didn't get anything, and the vesper haven't been sick long enough for any yet!
OK THATS ALL. HOLY SHIT SORRY FOR YELLING FOR 15 MINUTES. GOT CARRIED AWAY. hopefully that explains everything tho OABEOABROANRJS OK BYE MY PHONE IS ALMOST DEAD

idk if you're still doing the ask thing but uhhh what's it like being one of the best writeblrs in town? what's your primary source of inspiration? are there any old wips that you gave up ages ago but are tempted to go back and change/finish? are there any wips that you haven't told anyone about yet but are dying to share? (pls share if you want!) Finally, why do you like writing so much? (you don't have to answer all the questions i just really like asking people these questions bc they're fun)
Thank you so much for all of the questions! I really enjoyed answering them :)
It’s a bit long so I’m putting it all under a cut!
What's it like being one of the best writeblrs in town?
Oh my gosh, I really don’t think I’m anywhere near being one of the best writeblrs in town, but I’m super flattered that you think I am! 
Overall, I love being a writeblr, and I love the little community of friends, mutuals, and followers that I have. I definitely wouldn’t still be around if I didn’t enjoy the community so much! I love being able to support people, and sometimes sharing what little I have. The amount of passion, creativity and kindness here is phenomenal, and I’m really honored to be a part of it!
It’s pretty normal, honestly. I’m definitely not one of the super popular writeblrs that gets a whole lot of engagement (though I am really thankful for every bit of engagement I get 💙💙) so I think that I have a lot less going on than most people might think. That’s mostly my own fault though I think, because I haven’t shared a whole lot of my writing or projects. I reblog stuff, post stuff sometimes, I try to reblog and leave comments on people’s work when I’m feeling up to it, and occasionally I’m delighted by a very kind comment.
It’s not all roses and sparkles though, a lot of really hard work went into getting where I am. Being a bigger blog with a certain reputation also brings with it a lot of problems and frustrations that I usually don’t talk about because I think it’s pretty tacky to rant about publicly on my blog. 
But it’s worth it, you know? The positives definitely outweigh the negatives, and I met so many amazing people here which is the best gift. I just don’t think that my writeblr experience is that different from most other people haha!
What's your primary source of inspiration?
My writing partner is a really big one. She’s super creative and I absolutely adore writing with her. She comes up with the best ideas, and talking about our ideas and projects and characters with her is always a surefire way for me to get excited and inspired about something, even if I’m in a slump!
TV shows, movies, books, video games that I’m into also sometimes ignite a spark! When I’m creatively drained or suffering writer’s block, I always try to just disconnect from writing for a bit and immerse myself in other media until something clicks.
Otherwise, aesthetics are one of the primary ways I get into an idea or a concept so that’s pretty important as well!
Are there any old wips that you gave up ages ago but are tempted to go back and change/finish?
It’s been a really long time since I’ve written for any of the WIPs that I’ve announced on tumblr. For Queen and Country, Morsmordre, Post-Script, Wanderlust... Between me and my partners feeling burnt out, or stuck, or just otherwise busy with other things, they’ve all fallen to the wayside a bit and that makes me a bit sad.
I don’t think any of us have given up on them, but right now they’re not active and I really wish that they were.
Are there any wips that you haven't told anyone about yet but are dying to share?
YES!!! Two of them, in fact.
One of them is a fanfiction that will be accessible to people who aren’t part of the fandom and have no knowledge about it — it will have no spoilers for the fandom, and all of the fandom-specific worldbuilding and such will be explainable. But it’s an incredibly original idea; there’s no fic anything like it on AO3, fanfiction.net or wattpad, and I’m a bit paranoid that once I start talking about it, people might take the idea and run with it? Which you know, might not happen and I know I’m being overly cautious. But I’ve demanded a gag order until we’re ready to post the actual story. It’s so good and I can’t wait to tell people but I want to keep it a secret until it’s ready and faljdskhcnlkdsjcnlakdjn
The other one is my Nano project!!! I’m really close to being able to share it!!!!! So close, yet so far... Hoping to be able to announce within the next week or so.
Finally, why do you like writing so much?
I’ve been writing for my entire life basically, ever since I was 5 years old. It’s just been my choice of a creative outlet, I suppose, and I never really questioned it.
My first serious attempt at writing was play-by-post roleplaying, and I adored that because it allowed me to flesh out characters and character relationships with other people. That’s still a massive part of the appeal because I write with partners. Being able to collaborate on an idea, and endlessly talk about character relationships, dynamics, and plotting is definitely among the most rewarding experiences I’ve gotten with writing.
Like I said before, writing it my creative outlet. I’m a really creative person, but writing is really one of the only ways that I can express it because I’m not artistic whatsoever, and I don’t have a whole lot of other skills. Writing is something I can do though, and I often feel like I’m going to explode if I go too long without creating something. And it’s so immensely satisfying to be able to look at something I wrote or created and be like “Wow, I did really good.” My progress isn’t easily trackable, but I am able to look at my writing and see that I’ve improved, which is really motivating.
But when it comes to the question, why do I like it so much... I’m honestly not sure! Writing has always just been one of my things, and I’ve never actually delved too deeply into the why. It’s an interesting question though, and hopefully I’ll find an answer someday!

hey bitch dare u to answer all the questions from ur ask game xoxo
ur a coward if you think this is a dare, my narcissistic ass loves any opportunity i get to talk abt myself and my inability to love things to a normal amount means i can talk abt taz for hours!!!! get on my level, bitch!!!!!!!!
1) What/Who got you into TAZ?
my friends chris and mj @cabesmeadow !! i saw it a lot on tumblr and asked mj abt it and they were like “yeah it’s super fucking rad” and then my friend chris started listening to it over the summer so, mid-november, on a night that i had actually finished my homework early, i was like, “hey, fuck it, why not”
2) Who are you top 5 favorite characters?
(my top 5 list is not in any particular order)
taako
killian
lucretia
lup
davenport
3) What’s your favorite arc?
the eleventh hour!!!! it’s such a good fucking arc and had so many good moments oh my god
4) Favorite quote?
i have so, so, so many but my laptop is on low battery so i can’t list them all, so i’ll list the one i would most likely get tattooed:
“looking for new worlds to explore; looking for new stories to tell”
5) Favorite villain?
a tie between magic brian and edward & lydia!! i love brian so much and thought he was so funny and such a good first villain, but i also love my evil lich vogue twins
6) What was your favorite grand relic? Would you have been tempted by it?
my favorite is probably the animus bell, tho it wasn’t my fave until my most recent relistening. and oh yeah, something that would make me, essentially, immortal? i would’ve been super tempted
7) If you had to make a grand relic, what would it be? What power would it have?
i probably would have made something w/ jewerly, maybe a ring or earrings? or idk yet, i can’t think of anything cool, but ngl i think it would def having something similar to the animus bell. not That exactly, but something necrotic that, like, probably takes life energy to heal whoever is wielding it or takes life energy to feed their own
8) What moment/reveal shocked you the most?
UHHHHH “THE WORDLESS ONE” REVEAL HOLY FUCKING SHIT
9) Which “seven bird” would you have been? Or what would your role have been on the Starblaster?
ngl i think i would’ve been along the lines of “the lonely journal keeper” like!!! alligning with her role as the chronicler, i feel like that’s what i would have applied for
10) Would you have been able to make it through Wonderland?
oh definitely not. im ngl a bit… not selfish, but territorial of my things, idk what i would’ve been able to give up for the wheel, and i def wouldn’t have given up years of my life, and going for my looks would be a Hard Bargain and, even if i was in a world where i had magic, i don’t think i would’ve been strong enough to survive the challenges
11) What are some of the parts that made you the most emotional (whether it be crying, laughing, etc.)?
uhhh the magnulia cottage scene definitely, makes me sob every single time i hear it and, during my first time listening, that was what broke the damn and ended up having me cry for 30 solid minutes
12) Which track composed by Griffin was your favorite?
“madame director/lucretia/lucretia (reprise)” !!!!!
13) Which track not composed by Griffin was your favorite?
“salut d’amour” elgar!!!!!!!
14) Lucas’s Magical Institute or Taako’s Amazing School of Magic?
answered!!
15) What was your favorite cycle in Stolen Century?
not including the beach cycle bc i feel like that’s an obvi one, probably either the judges cycle or the conservatory
16) What were some of your favorite inventory items of tres horny boys?
the extreme teen bible, stephen the fish, chance lance, the umbrastaff, and the hole thrower!!
17) What animal would have been your “disguise” in Petals to the Metal?
answered!!!!
18) Are you more of a “Magnus rushes in,” “Merle follows along behind,” or “Taako’s good out here” type of person?
i think i’m a combination of “magnus rushes in” and “merle follows along behind” but tbh i Should be more “taako’s good out here”
19) Favorite Taako one-liner? Or favorites?
obviously “abraca-fuck you!”
“hey sheriff isaac, guess what time it is!” “what?” “fuck if i know!”
20) If you listen to the liveshows, do you have a favorite? Is there a particular liveshow you would love to see the McElroys do?
my favorite is a tie between san fran and new orleans!!!! and i would love to see them do something with carey and killian, like their bachelorette party or even a hangover-style live show where they lose one of the brides the day before the wedding akjskdk
21) In Wonderland, would you have been hesitant to “forsake” your opponents, or would you have done what you had to to get out?
okay ngl not to sound Terrible but if i was going up against strangers,,,,,, yeah i’d do what i had to do. it’s called the fucking suffering game not the fucking best friend game omfg
would i be able to betray my friends/companions tho??? i don’t think so, nope
22) Of the puzzles throughout the arcs, which one was your favorite?
answered!!!!
23) Would you have liked to see the dark timeline where Magnus took the chalice, or Magnus’s sidequest with Kravitz? Or are you happy with what actually ended up happening?
i love everything that happened in canon but i can admit that a magnus/kravitz sidequest would’ve been fucking sick
24) If given the option, would you have joined the Bureau of Balance? Would you have been a seeker, regulator, reclaimer, or something else?
tbh i think i would if i had to and i think i would have been a seeker
25) What magical item would you have made at the Arcaneum (from the Stolen Century)?
a cool sword!!!!! but, like, a magic sword
26) What is something, material or not, that you wouldn’t have been able to sacrifice in Wonderland?
i wouldn’t have given years off my life. i wouldn’t even have considered it
27) What would you have presented at the Conservatory?
i probably would have written something!!!!!
28) In Story and Song, many beloved NPCs made a return to take a final stand against the Hunger. Which one excited you the most?
HURLEY AND SLOANE!!!!
29) What was your reaction when Magnus was revealed to be a red robe, and then to the memories that followed?
i was so fucking confused but, like, in a good way, and so fucking shocked oh my god
30) What was your reaction when you found out who Lup was, and then to what happened to her?
answered!!!!
31) What was your reaction to Merle losing touch with Pan, and then to Pan’s return when the Planes were reconnected?
ngl it was pretty hard hitting and not for, like, any spiritual reason or anything, but just bc merle literally had Nothing at that point and i felt so bad for him and was so nervous but also “i’m not your pan, but you’ll always be my merle” is probably, without a doubt, one of my favorite taz quotes
32) Who are some characters that you would have liked to see interact more?
LUP AND LUCRETIA!!!!! @ GRIFFIN: LET THEM INTERACT MORE I DON’T GIVE A SHIT IF IT’S JUST AN HOUR OF YOU TALKING TO YOURSELF
33) Flaming Raging Poisoning Sword of Doom or the Umbrastaff?
the umbrastaff!!!!
34) Something you learned from Balance?
that very rarely are there ever easy decisions, and that you have to give yourself time to love and love without boundaries because, even with the years and years people have, so much time can be spent not loving the people you have
also it taught me the type of writer i want to be, and honestly taz has inspired me so much to keep pursuing writing, even when i feel like finally giving in
35) Who?
i̶͎͈̞͆̄̾̄̕'̷̛̮̄̒̓͘m̵͍̖̜͂̔͛͘͝ ̶̡̦͙͍͋̑̂̅͠d̵̟̖̭̳̄͌́a̵̻̎̍͂̃̍v̸̲͇̮͊̽͒̚͝ḛ̵̳͔͗̊n̷̻̳͓͎̠͐p̷̰̘̘̭̗̈́̒ơ̵̪r̸͔̝̈̇͘͠t̸̫̠̯͗ ̴̨̛̖͕̟̦̀̏̂̚ḯ̸̜'̶̨̨̖̮̃̃̈́̿m̸͖̰̙̉̏̔̄́ ̵̺̊̓̃̽̓d̸̝̣̈͊a̶̩̪̖̝̽̚ṿ̴̝̙̣͈̐̊e̷̢̛̦̫̓̇͋n̸̨̖̽͐͊͗p̴̡̥͖̞̈́ͅö̵̭̼̘́͋̿ṟ̶͎͍͙͇͑̇̈̉͝t̸̢͕͓͓̠̆͊ ̷̛̟͕̂̌͛ĩ̶̤̺͕'̸̹͓͙̥̺̀ṃ̵̢̻͇̓̈́̚ͅ ̴̜͙͉̯͌̋̐͝d̴͈̜̐̀͘͝a̷̗̹̪͈̿v̴͔͓͑̕͠ȇ̸̞̲̇͛̕ǹ̶̬͉̼̫͂͌p̸͕͐o̵̮͝ŗ̸̘͝ṱ̷̤̫̀̓̉͂̑ ̵̝̞̩̆̍i̶͖̗͔̥̬͐͌̚͝'̸͍̍̋͜m̵̦̼͂͒ ̴̯̈̽͌̕d̶̮̾̀́ǎ̵̢̹̋͊̉̈v̶̨̟̼͓̅ͅḙ̴̟̼̒n̴̝̬͂̍͊͂̀p̶͔̗͂ơ̸̲̰̬̎̀͛̌r̷̬̞̱̍́́̉t̸͙̏͗̎̓̕ ̵̣̅ḭ̶̱̮͓̈͛̑͑'̸̫̞̣̬̊m̵̢̥̀ͅ

{{ "Give me a character and I will answer", for Zatanna? 8O
sorry not sorry for the length on this lmao
Why I like them: okay, with Zatanna, what’s not to love? She’s flirty, she’s cute, she knows how to take full advantage of all her skills, and she’s so damn headstrong. it’s something i admire so much about her & esp when writers pay attention to that & give her that autonomy which is why i rlly only accept Dini’s way of writing bc he does her voice & demeanor SO WELL UGH 
Why I don’t: That strong will is p much why this girl can’t land a bf lmao. she loves her work as a hero & a magician and isn’t willing to compromise on those things but then writers will have her bemoan the fact that she can’t hold a man down like okay. no. you can’t have ur cake and eat it too. but like… ugh. let my girl live her life!!!!!!!
Favorite episode (scene if movie): Listen. Her intro in BTAS? That whole damn episode and team-up and ICONIC use of JUST stage illusions/escapes? That Very Subtle Hint At Maybe Real Magic at the end? Without a doubt something that holds a place near & dear to my heart ok. (but a close second is the JLAction ep “Trick or Threat” bc that was just plain cute overall lbrhh)
Favorite season/movie: gonna go ahead and count the JLD movie here. at least until we maybe get that Zee DCEU movie *fingers crossed*
Favorite line: “Why do you care about some leggy dame in nylons? Or have I answered my own question?” - I C O N I C really.
Favorite outfit: okay, look at this very tiny Zee in her little magician get up and TELL ME ITS NOT THE CUTEST LITTLE THING IM JFKLJKDFLS:FDNKASFLNDLSFJKLJLJ
Ships: Magicblazer, Fishnet Queens (Dinah/Zee), WonderMagic, & actually Batanna bc I’m a SUCKER for friendships that lead to More.  and also Artemis/Zee in YJ even tho i cant stand their ship name.
FRIEND ships: uhhh, Deadman & Zee always seem to have a p good familiarity in the JLD run. ofc Bruce n Zee’s friendship is still Super Important to me. aaaaand… yeah, ima still count the fishnet queens here too. Bloodspell was just *clenches fist* so. damn. good.
Head Canon: Zatara absolutely took Zee out for milkshakes after she mastered rlly difficult/complicated spells. and any apprentice she takes under her wing absolutely gets the same reward (if not the equivalent ofc bc i mean not everyone’s crazy abt milkshakes yknow?)
Unpopular opinion: idk if it’s Unpopular, but it drives me up the wall when people write her ‘backwards’ speech by making the whole sentence from beginning to end backwards rather than the individual words. yeah, that’s how it was done in the 70s iirc, but like…. Lame. and also a little impractical, writing-wise & practice-wise? it would mean having so much extra to think about before performing a spell, rather than being able to just!!! speak the individual words like normal! The only time I’ve ever felt ok about that, was when Zee faced off against a dude in her solo series where his whole thing was being able to reverse time a little bit at a time, so she spoke in palindrome sentences to fight him. NOW THATS a GOOD reason to have her THINK about her powers! something OUTSIDE the NORM.
A wish: that her relationship with Zatara isn’t sidelined (if/when she gets a movie) bc it’s!!!! one of the few positive Father/Daughter relationships that DC’s ever given us and DAMMIT i need that!!! Let these heroes have some Good Parents For Once!!!!
An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: that she just gets relegated to Love Interest in anything. yeah I’m as concerned for her love-life as anyone else, but dammit, she’s so BEYOND just being arm candy or an anecdote as someone’s partner. she’s a mf ACCOMPLISHED magician for fucks sake! 
5 words to best describe them: adept, strong-willed, enchanting, quick-witted and fabulous
My nickname for them: Zee, a Classic that you cant rlly go wrong with amirite?

Baby - Lin Yanjun College AU
Fuck this took me so long I’m sorry I’ve been struggling with writers block and school is stressful :((
Tumblr media
• so Yanjun showed up to his dance theory class and was quite upset when his teacher said he had to take another dance class
• normally he would blow off that kinda stuff and make up for it later but the professor is making it a requirement and checking the records
• Yanjun’s plate was already so full so this extra class was not helping his stress
• he looked at his friend Zhengting and sighed because literally wtf why does he have to do this
• “hey I heard the instructor was hot”
• yanjun rolled his eyes bc why does that matter, I mean I guess it kinda does
• well then he found himself wondering about how your ass will look in leggings
• anyways
• Yanjun and a few of his friends decided to sign up for the same class so at least they won’t be alone
• so on the day of you were really shocked at how many people signed up for the lesson and you were like uhh what’s up w this
• when class started you drank some water and tightened your laces before a bunch of rowdy boys suddenly got quiet
• you look up and UHHH why are all these cute boys in your class wtf
• “hi guys” you try to smile kindly and welcome them in
• “damn you were right” “dibs” “you couldn’t get her bro”
• so you do a brief intro and learn that they are only there bc their prof made them
• after a few stretches you get down to the actual teaching
• you notice one silver haired boy completely eye fucking you while you’re walking around
• when he made eye contact with you he winked and flexed his muscles which you gotta say looked pretty nice
• “you’re doing that wrong” you corrected his posture and his buddies snickered
• “maybe instead of watching me you could be more focused on yourself, yeah?” - also you
• “you’re hot when you’re feisty” - a smirking Yanjun
• BITCH YOU WANTED TO KICK HIM LOL
• you scoffed and walked away from him and towards another boy named ziyi
• “you have an amazing form!” you compliment him and he nods earnestly
• “so do you” - yanjun from across the room
• “Lin Yanjun are you sure you can handle this lesson? Is it too advanced for you?” - you with your hand on your hip
• “idk about this class but I know I could handle you baby girl”
• YOU WERE SO MAD AT THAT POINT
• bc like how dare he come into your class and make you flustered like this
• “yo~ chill jun she’s just tryna do her job” - your new fav student ziyi
• “suck up” - salty zhengting for not being your fav
• so you teach them a few more things and thankfully it seemed that Yanjun quit trying to mess with you
• he actually did really well and you would’ve told him that if he hadn’t teased you so much your pride is too big sorry
• when you dismiss class a few of them stick around and talk about your other classes they have to attend
• Yanjun stays behind the longest no surprise
• “can I help you?”
• “go out with me”
• “excuse me?”
• “you heard me baby”
• “I’ll think about it”
• “don’t think about it, just do it”
• he walked out of the room before you could respond and omg you were so shook
• but you brushed it off and got ready to go back to your dorm for the party happening tonight
• your bff begged you to go w her and since you’re a good friend you agreed
• a few hours later you were lookin like a hot piece of ass in a skin tight maroon velvet dress
• when you walked in you felt all eyes on you and your friend BC DAMN
• anyways you went to the kitchen to pour a drink and uhhhahaha guess who was there talking to Ziyi
• “yeah and then...” yanjun trailed off as his mouth started watering looking at your legs
• Ziyi was like bro? And then saw you and was like oh shit
• so you decided to try and ignore them bc it was kinda embarrassing/awk
• you picked up the vodka and were about to pour some in your cup when someone took the bottle from you
• “allow me baby” - yanjun making your drink for you
• you were gonna fight but you didn’t have the energy lol
• “you look hot y/n”
• “you actually know my name?”
• “well yeah but I prefer calling you baby”
• your resolve was melting UGH DAMN HIS DIMPLES
• he handed your drink back to you and you walked away pretty quickly bc you needed to find your friend
• she could remind you that you don’t need a bf!! Focus on school!!!
• but alas your bff was making out with zhengting and you couldn’t just drag her away from that
• she has had a crush on him since grade school
• so when you took your seat on the couch Lin Yanjun sat right next to you
• “can I help you?”
• “dance with me”
• “I don’t feel like dancing”
• “you’re so tense baby maybe something else could fix that...”
• you smacked his arm and he started laughing which of course was melodic and made you laugh
• “ah finally she blesses me with a gorgeous smile!” - yanjun
• you can’t help but blush because of how sincere and sweet his words sounded
• “you’re not blushing are you~?” Yanjun asks when he noticed you covering half of your face
• “what no of course not”
• “mmm sure baby whatever you say..”
• “I need a drink”
• you heard him say you already had a drink but you needed a moment away from him before your face bursted into flames
• “when are you gonna agree to me taking you out hmm?”
• you nearly jumped out of your skin bc suddenly he whispered that in your ear and he was so close to you
• fuCK imagine a needy yanjun grinding up against you at a party
• that’s for another bulletpoint...
• ANYWHOSIES
• you turn around to face him and guess what he didn’t even move back up an inch so you were vERY close to his chest
• and lord did it smell heavenly
• “thank you” - a giggling shy Yanjun
• “holy fuck did I say that out loud??” - a shook you
• “you sure did baby” - a smirking much cooler Yanjun
• you felt your resolve melting again UWUWUWUWUWUWUWU
• “when do you want to take me out?”
• “wait what” - HAHA he’s shook
• “I said, when are we going out?” you repeated yourself a felt such pride when he was the one that was flustered
• “tomorrow after your dance class?”
• “ew I’ll be all sweaty”
• “you’ll be sweaty by the end of our date anyways baby”
• “LiN YaNjUn” - now your face is red as a tomato

What is your dream job? children’s book writer/illustrator <3 <3 <3 i want to tell stories in beautiful ways and make kids happy!! as a kid, i could spend forever just flipping through my books, staring at the pictures, and my dream would be to make a book that the next generation of artists is inspired by while they’re still young like i was.
Who is your current celebrity crush? uhHhh i’m in love with the entire cast of the bold type, but especially aisha dee (kat)!!
What are three movies that make you cry? it’s really easy to make me cry haha!! i sobbed the other day watching finding dory. uhhh cheaper by the dozen made me cry when i first watched it as a tyke and basically every time since. typical stuff like the notebook, finding neverland, the normal heart does the trick?? i’m a cancer, it;s harder to find movies that DON’T make me cry haha
What is the last book you finished reading? 
jinkies, i dunno!! probably a manga tbh. i’m currently making pretty good pace through gender outlaws: the next generation, which is very good!!!! it’s already a little outdated 7 years after publication since preferred language around trans identity changes so quickly, but reading it feels like a hug from trans and non-binary ppl all over the world :D

they’re green, but i have a lil circle of brown/hazel around the pupil... i love my eyes tbh...

ok whatever I can't use my sideblog to send this but! for the ask meme, fandom: snk, ship: yumihisu
omg vi I’m so sorry this is so long over due I just didn’t want to do any of my favs a disservice (hopefully I haven’t as I’m often bad with words) but thank you for the ask!!
Fandom: SNK
Favorite character: Levi 😘😘
Least Favorite character: Historia’s parents but the king and Zachly are pretty gross too
5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): Currently ereri, yumihisu, eruri, jeankasa and erejean
Character I find most attractive: Ymir!!!!!! Honestly she is literally gf goals like she’s exactly my type in looks and personality I just uhhh
Character I would marry: Ymir
Character I would be best friends with:Meaning only one?? Sasha probably
A random thought: I really hope they make more seasons. I’d love to see Kenny animated
An unpopular opinion:Please be gentle with me but….. (I’m not the biggest fan of ponytail!levi) I love how excited everyone gets over the idea I think that’s cute! but yeah not really for me
My canon OTP: Yumihisuuuuuu
Non-canon OTP: Ereri - they have such an interesting and beautiful relationship I can’t wait to see them in the manga again!
Most badass character: There’s so many! How do I even choose? Maybe Erwin or Mike bc it’s a bit unfair to compare the Ackermans with everyone else
Pairing I am not a fan of: Y'know I originally put Armin & Erwinbut last night I had a really cute dream of them so probably Reiner & Historia
Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): No one
Favourite friendship: Levi, Erwin and Hange!
Character I want to adopt or be adopted by:I want to adopt Mikasa and be adopted by Erwin and/or Mike
Ship: Yumihisu
When of if I started shipping it: When I first saw them in the same frame? Aha no but it was pretty instant. I think it was when Ymir put an arm around Historia and told her something like ‘when this is all over I’m gonna marry you’. Bc I was like 👀 canon lgbts excuse me haha and I’ve been in love and drawn in since
My thoughts: I love them heaps!!! Like Ymir says they’re both very similar with y'know the whole living a lie thing they’ve been through. They’ve both been through horrible things no little girl should have gone through. Yet (as much as Ymir likes to deny it) they both still have some compassion inside and a caring nature. I just feel like they really understand each other and they need someone like that. I also just think they compliment each other really nicely like two sides of the same coin. I love their lil fights/arguments too I think they’re adorable bc they’re healthy and normal and are usually made to try and help the other person. Summary: they’re super cute I love them
What makes me happy about them: That they’re canon (especially as lgbts) !!! Like I can still remember the day it was announced my friend and I were like crying and clinging to each other the whole day haha. And they’re just really cute and a perfect match in my opinion
What makes me sad about them:If you’re caught up on the manga I think you could take a guess. Also how they seem to be almost destined to never be properly together with Ymir’s deal with Reiner and Historia with her queen duties. Also both of their backstories are tragic and always make me sad
Things done in fanfic that annoys me:I guess just mischaracterisation like Historia being portrayed as super sweet and innocent. Other than that nothing really!
Things I look for in fanfic:I’m always looking out for canonverse yumihisus but I haven’t came across many. I’m not sure, I haven’t really read a yumihisu fic that’s really blown me away. I actually haven’t read that much anyways so please if you want recommend me some if anyone knows any! I love aus too bc then my girls can be happily together
My kinks:Idk
Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: Historia with Eren. Ymir with me lmaoooo maybe Sasha
My happily ever after for them:Historia sends out her men or the survey corps to save Ymir. Ymir becomes queen as well and they both serve together happily in love and take in the orphaned children and raise them as their own (with the help of their loyal servants and occasionally Levi Squad)
I’ve already answered Levi. You can find it here: https://softymir.tumblr.com/post/161052629728/levi-for-the-character-ask-thank-you
Character: Sasha
How I feel about this character: She’s a blessing. She’s very sweet and strong. I wish she wasn’t just reduced to potato jokes bc she’s so much more than that! She’s such a good person and character! I love how goofy and sometimes rebellious yet polite and kind she is. I love that she’s shown with the little insecurity of her accent and her way of speaking but her friends always try and bring her out of that as they love her the way she is. I love that she expresses fear as you realistically would. She’s a very real, believable and relatable character.
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Mikasa, Connie, Ymir (is this a thing?? please be a thing), Historia ahhhh Sasha and all the girls please, Mina bc of that one official art and actually holy heck they would have been cute, Annie? Jean? idk Sasha’s so nice she could click w anyone
My non-romantic OTP for this character:Springles? Some days I ship them romantically and then other times I just see them as friends who endlessly support each other
My unpopular opinion about this character: While I thought the added scenes of Sasha in s2 were cute I was a little upset that almost all of her added dialogue revolved around food bc I’m kind of over that being a main characteristic of her when she’s so much more
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: I want her to see her papa again and I want him and everyone to tell her how proud they are of her and how strong she has been/is. I want her to look after herself and be swarmed with love and support from her friends
My het ship:Springles
My fem/slash ship: Mikasasha!!
My OTP: Oh boy i’m gonna say it’s mikasasha but springles is really sweet too
My OT3:Yumihisusasha. Brotp would be sashaconniejean
My cross over ship: Don’t have one
My kink: Idk
A head cannon fact: The more comfortable she is with someone the more she’ll let her accent and her way of speaking slip
Character: Historia
How I feel about this character: Historia is really important to me personally as I relate to her a lot (both of us being super gay for Ymir lmao)
But like the whole taking on a different personality for most of your life. Like I was very much like Krista during most of my school life. I was overly kind, sweet and caring to everyone even people who really did not deserve it. It’s quite interesting actually that as I read Historia starting to ‘live for herself’ and as herself I was too. So I kind of grew out of that with her which is why she’s very important to me.
And it’s always nice to find a character you relate to and the fact that she likes girls too is just 🙏🙏
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Ymir!!!! And Eren
My non-romantic OTP for this character:Maybe Reiner and Historia? Like I can see them being each other’s beards and maybe in an au tricking the parents that they’re straight as they’re both pretty much the poster children of the bf/gf you’d want to show off to your mum. And I think they could have been quite good friends
My unpopular opinion about this character: I don’t think people think it anymore but I remember when the chapters were coming out as her as Historia most people thought she was this super cold bitch (me included at first) but hah that’s not the case. I mean she’s not ridiculously nice goddess Krista but she definitely still cares about herself, Ymir, her friends and children. You just have to remember she had a rough life and childhood of course she’s gonna come across as cold and distant sometimes.
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon:I want her and Ymir to get married and to take in the orphaned children and raise them as their own (with the help of her loyal servants and possibly in their free time Levi Squad as Historia is a very busy queen). Ymir would love her lots and Historia would raise and treat the children how she wished she could have been. She’d dedicate as much time as she could with them. I want her to be happy and content with her life
My het ship: Erehisu
My fem/slash ship: Yumihisu
My OTP: Yumihisu!!
My OT3: Yumihisusasha
My cross over ship: Don’t have one
My kink: Idk I think she’d like to have little kisses planted everywhere like the royalty she is
A head cannon fact: She’s the big spoon
