#sometimes this hellsite is so grating and tiring

[redhead-reporter]

º ✧ 。AY, mj's ship partners - when's the last time one of you offered to give this girl an allowance, huh? damn, you'd think y'all had learned how to treat a LADY

[xxmisty]

First intro post for a verrrry long time!

Hello! 🌈

Bit out of practice for this but since I’ve started to get a few new followers again I thought I should make a quick post to say thanks for following and to kind of re-introduce myself since I’ve been away a little while. Tumblr’s been my online home since 2011 though so even when I’ve been away a while I’ll always come back sooner or later - I met my lovely partner here and this hellsite saved my life in a very literal way back in the day so it means the world to me 💙

I can’t help worrying that if you’ve just followed for the art you’ll get fed up with the absolute yard-sard of fandoms, nonsense and tumblr nostalgia I’ve been reblogging lately and I don’t want to put unwanted nonsense on your dash so I’ve set up a side blog which I’ll reblog just my art to. Feel free to follow that one instead! 💜 Art side blog: @johnmist 💜

But if we share fandoms (especially Torchwood - oh my god I am over three years into the biggest hyperfixation of my life and it’s showing no signs of fading!) or other interests it’d be nice to meet you - feel free to say hi!

My name’s John, some people might still know me as Mist, but all the best people call me Stringer (= my wife 🥰) I’m a 40-something trans, bi, disabled artist who’s tired of all the hate, horror and misery out there. I can’t change the world but I can try to brighten it just a tiny bit with some fan art of characters and fandoms that I love.

At the moment I’m struggling big-time with my health. I live with fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, severe crohn’s and UC, endometriosis, narcolepsy, migraines and recurrent meningitis so honestly, sometimes I have to disappear without warning. From one day to the next I never know what I can manage so I try to make the most of every good day, every good hour, every good minute and draw as much as I can when I’m able. Art is one of the things that keeps me going, makes life worthwhile.

Full disclosure, I’m currently going through the worst health of my life and finding it hard to cope this time. Somehow this is the one place I don’t actually feel guilty sharing so I may talk about it sometimes. I’m also autistic and like just about everyone on this site I also suffer from anxiety. I also am very much an adult and may post/reblog adult subjects so please don’t follow if you are a minor or know you’ll find topics such as sex, sexuality, my fetish and other mature content upsetting - be safe in your own space, and feel free to follow my art blog instead 💙

💜 Again.... Art side blog: @johnmist 😁 💜

A non-complete list of my other fandoms:

Doctor Who (classic and new), What We Do In The Shadows, Marvel (mostly MCU, particularly Runaways, Jessica Jones, Wandavision, Doctor Strange, Guardians of the Galaxy, She-Hulk and Cloak & Dagger), Red Dwarf, Homestuck, Ashes to Ashes/Life on Mars, YuGiOh, Splatoon, Animal Crossing, Xenoblade, My Hero Academia, Yakuza, 80s and 90s nostalgia and various other franchises that we dip in and out of from time to time 💙

My icon is my favourite OC, Kim, and I may post about my OCs now and again.

I’m horrible at self-promotion but I do have a Patreon and a ko-fi and am very grateful for any support; money is a constant struggle and every little helps 💙 If you’d like a hi-res version of any of my sketches in exchange for a ko-fi donation please drop me a message 🥰

Ok so 3 people u could never get tired of except w ur mutuals

Luv u bye <3

ONLY THREE??? that’s the hardest question I’ve been asked in a minute good god okay

(for the record this applies to many more than three of you so don't take it personally if you're not here <3)

@73647e: you were probably the first person that i started talking to here on tumblr and have stuck by me since, which i am eternally grateful for <3 you're almost always the first person to ask to see anything i'm working on, to comment on or read my fics and help me with my never-ending indecision, and i don't think i could ever get tired of your unhinged post captions lol it's never boring talking to you, even if we don't do it often and i hope to do it more tbh you're great, ily zombie

@pineapple-coffee: one of my meme dealers! every time i see your name on here i smile :) you send me some top-tier posts that always make my day, you also tag me in so many things (unless i tag you first lol) and you're always such a dependable person for me to talk to! you single-handedly convinced me to not only rewatch the entire natm franchise (i forgot how good they were tbh) but you've also given me an entire list of movies that you recommend that i still need to watch lol you are one of my favorite people on this hellsite <3 (i'm sorry i'm no longer your ethan hawke mutual </3 but thank you for still sending me ethan things, i love them haha)

@cowboylexapro: my son!!! ofc you were gonna be one of these three let's be honest lol i love the wild things you message me out of the blue, the fact that you've influenced me to write about vampires again??? (never thought that'd happen but here we are ig ha) and the fact that you're such an honest person. things are hard sometimes but i'm grateful that we talk, whether for a random convo, an infodump or actually needed advice, it makes me happy to know i'm one of the people you come to <3 you're great kid

you guys are probably my top 3 on here tbh, you're all amazing <3

[khaleesiofalicante]

Its still early here, but I realize it's probably 2023 there lol

I know I have said this before, but it doesn't hurt today it once more: Thank you for everything. For sharing your stories with us. For sharing these characters whom we love and hate.

I know I'm not the only one who found so much joy and comfort in them. Even on the really busy or tiring days, having the opportunity to read lbaf, ials, bmily, dml, or any other fic made my whole day. I have actually used quotes from them on some arguments lmao

I sometimes wonder how I got here and I am so grateful for the day I decided to join this hellsite and decided to read "just a chapter" of your fic and falling in love with everything about it. I'm so glad I found you!!!

And also y'all because every joke, meme or comment brought me so much happiness!!

I hope 2023 is kinder to us and I am sending you all the love from across continents!!!

I love you. I love you. I love you💙

Happy New Year!!!!

Thank you for being a wonderful and supportive part of my writing journey. I'm glad it brings you comfort. I really, really am.

Manifesting a kinder and happier 2023.

Thank you for the critical command 😘 I love youuuuuuu.

A Quick Intro

hi! I’m a tumblr veteran, been here since 2011 🤫 My personal blog is @xxmisty but it is - as it’s always been - a big tangled mess of fandoms, memes and highly medicated stupidity! Since it’s always going to be a dumpster fire I thought I’d set up a side blog to reboot my art to in case you just wanted to follow for the pics without all the extra mix of fandoms junk, tumblr nostalgia and other stuff that interests me.

My name’s John, I’m a 40-something trans, bi, disabled artist who’s tired of all the hate, horror and misery out there. I can’t change the world but I can try to brighten it just a tiny bit with some fan art of characters and fandoms that I love.

At the moment I’m struggling big-time with my health. I live with fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, severe crohn’s and UC, endometriosis, narcolepsy, migraines and recurrent meningitis so honestly, sometimes I have to disappear without warning. From one day to the next I never know what I can manage so I try to make the most of every good day, every good hour, every good minute and draw as much as I can when I’m able. Art is one of the things that keeps me going, makes life worthwhile 💙

The other things I love are - in order of importance - my lovely partner of ten years Lucy 🥰 (whom I met on this hellsite, ILY tumblr!!!), Torchwood, food and writing! And after that come a whooooole bunch of other fandoms, most of which I’ve drawn at least a piece or two for over the years.

A non-complete list of fandoms includes:

Doctor Who (classic and new), What We Do In The Shadows, Marvel (mostly MCU, particularly Runaways, Jessica Jones, Wandavision, Doctor Strange, Guardians of the Galaxy, She-Hulk and Cloak & Dagger), Red Dwarf, Homestuck, Ashes to Ashes/Life on Mars, YuGiOh, Splatoon, Animal Crossing, Xenoblade, My Hero Academia, Yakuza, 80s and 90s nostalgia and various other franchises that we dip in and out of from time to time 💙

My lovely partner ruined my life with Torchwood at the start of 2020 and more than three years on I’m still head over heels with hyperfixation so I apologise for the fact at least 75% of art I post is TW-related :P

Yes! I Have OCs! I hope you don’t mind if I share occasionally 💙

If you’d like to help me continue to create art I have a Patreon and a ko-fi and am very grateful for any support; money is a constant struggle and every little helps 💙 If you’d like a hi-res version of any of my sketches in exchange for a ko-fi donation please drop me a message 🥰

I know we have sent each other so much in the last few days, so I won't make this super long, because I know I could go on for days and days. Becky, you're such a wonderful friend to have and I am so lucky that we decided to connect the way we did way back when --- when we decided to become friends beyond little positive memes. Since then, I have enjoyed endless conversations with you and so many fun stories ( some making us holler in audacity ), but all the same. These are experiences that I am so grateful for and I know you are always going to be someone I think of when I think of my history of writing on this hell site. You have worked so hard and gone through so much --- and overcome so much. I am so very proud of you, my friend. And I mean that, 100%, from the heart. I can't tell you how proud I am of all your work now and the way you push out these projects while still finding time to write. You are a marvel, my friend. Never let anyone put your light out --- you are stronger than anyone will ever know. I hope you know that. Thank you so much for your presence in my life, and the lives of all who know you. Know that we appreciate you and I, for one, am incredibly grateful for your friendship and existence in my life. Happy New Year, Becky ! Stay strong, my friend !

2022 is coming to an end!

   AEHAWUEH GIIIIIRL YOU SAID IT! I love how we’ve just been cannonball-ing love at one another over these last few days though! 😭❤️ Though I once again feel like I will never be able to express how much I appreciate you, no matter how much I blabber off, hahah! But yeah, it’s honestly been so fun catching up like that, and once again it makes me look forward to us interacting more this 2023! Ahh you are such a dear, always spoiling me with all this love! I don’t know what I did to deserve it, but oh lord my heart can’t take it sometimes awewah!!!

   I am so happy whenever we get the chance to chat again, like you said-- we have so much to share with one another and it-- feels so, so nice to just feel so comfortable around one another and open up to each other like this. ESPECIALLY with all the horrors that we have INDEED been through, WHEW! I truly appreciate the listening ear that you are always so ready to give me. And I hope you know my side is always open for when you need the same, along with all the hugs thrown in there. 

   And please-- the inspiring one is you! The incredible works that I still see you write on here, especially with how much you gotta do offline-- will always floor me. Leave me in absolute awe of your writing prowess (And of course the endless amount of love and passion that you have and are so able to easily show in all that you do). I know how tired you are, how much you yourself deal with on your end... and yet you are still going, GOING SO HARD AT IT ALL! STAYING SO DAMN STRONG, I swear you are actually a superhuman at times! And not to mention, the ability to make others feel so loved and appreciated, making them feel welcomed and that they actually belong here... you are truly one of the few gems that make this hellsite worth coming back to, again and again.

   Happy New Year, my dear friend! I am once more so honored to know you and call you my friend. And I hope you will always know just how much I love, admire and appreciate you. No matter how quiet I may seem at times-- know just how hard I will always be rooting for you. How loudly I am actually screaming for your success, just like I had at the MMA fights, AUEHAWU!!! I was actually that loud despite how everyone around me were cheering and yelling too, apparently I embarrassed some folks around me, 8I Thank you so much, for all that you do. For continuing to be in my corner of the ring. For always being so understanding and loving and supportive towards me... You are a treasure, Ash. One of the greatest treasures this world’s ever’d seen. ❤️

@galaxycrxss ❤️💕❤️

Curiosity Saved The Cat | a Micheal Myers x GN!Reader

warnings: none! Just a sweet ol thingy bout you and ol mikey meeting

A/N: Aye babies this isn’t my first rodeo on this hellsite but you’ve probably never seen my work unless you have the memory of an elephant and an obsession with Karl Heisenberg!

But! New user new me y’know. So this is my first fic as Neopleb and I hope you stick around and maybe send in some requests!

——————————

His favorite activity was to watch you. Sometimes you didn’t know. Sometimes he knew you knew, but your favorite was when he didn’t know that you knew.

You were used to the iconic Micheal stare. I mean, dating this seven foot hunk of a killer for a few years meant you had to get used to it or it just wouldn’t be pleasant for you. Thankfully, you were able to take his glares and glances but you also learned how to tell them apart.

Of course, theres the stare that fills even the strongest of men with fright as they realize their death is soon nearing when they look into the emotionless gaze that hid the truest form of evil. The Shape.

You’re grateful you’ve never experienced the full force of that gaze. You had seen it be fought off the night you two met. It was replaced with the next stare; curiosity.

The day you two met is a memory you cherish, but of course your logical side always is ringing in the back of your head “HOW THE FUCK DID I SURVIVE EVIL FUCKING PERSONIFIED???” or something along those lines.

The answer was simple, you intrigued him. Micheal had never seen anything like you. He couldn’t understand it. The shape was banging in his skull telling him to kill you right now. Finish the job. But Micheal for once didn’t listen. For once in over many decades, he let his more human side take over and he just left.

Imagine the look on your face when Micheal Myers, who was five seconds away from killing you just up and walks away. You didn’t know how to react. You sat in the corner of your silent bedroom praying to whatever was out there that he wouldn’t change his mind about sparing you.

You didn’t want to provoke him in anyway so you cast logic to the wind and didn’t contact the police. In the weeks following the encounter you thought you had just been a miracle and would never have a run in with the masked fellow again…

Until you started noticing things. Things like, windows being open that you were sure to have closed the night before. Locks suddenly broken no matter how many times you would replace them. You tried your best to calm your thoughts but the obvious answer was basically hitting you in the face. He never let you be. He had been watching you the whole time.

Of course you freaked out, but then came the confusion. Why hadn’t he killed you? You had lived in Haddonfield long enough to hear the stories, and from what you gathered, Micheal didn’t really keep victims. Of course if they ran he’d find them again, but it was usually a quick job. So why are you still here?

That was a question even Micheal couldn’t answer. It felt like everyday was “the day he is definitely going to do it” but it never was. He just watched you. Almost as if you were a science project that he had to observe.

He couldn’t wrap his head around you. To the naked eye you were just a normal person. You moved from the city to live a quiet life, a fresh start, in a small town in Illinois. You kept to yourself. The only person who knew you by name was the usual cashier at the local supermarket. You minded your business. Yet some how you caught the eye of god’s most terrifying creation.

After a few weeks of trying fix the locks, even going as far to super glue a few windows shut, you gave up. They always found themselves open again, you came to the thought that “if he hasn’t killed me yet, why am I to be so worried?” Which on your part isn’t the smartest, but no one ever said you were the sharpest knife in the drawer.

It was a silent night it February. You had fallen asleep on your couch after a long day of studying for your exams. You hadn’t slept in over 20 hours, and you were out cold, so you didn’t hear the creak of the back door opening.

Micheal stalked in, as silent as ever. Hiding in the shadows as he mapped out his plan to finally end you tonight. He headed towards your bedroom, expecting you to be there asleep in bed as you usually were. He stopped as he spotted you passed out on the couch. Half your body was hanging off the side and there was a pencil stuck in your hair.

He stared at you again, the curious gaze returning as his plan slowly faded from his mind. You were an enigma. How did you capture his gaze like this, why did he push everything aside just to watch you. You were just another victim. Another body. Another object to him. Why is his mind seeing you as something more.

The thing that pulled him from his thoughts was your body slamming to the ground after just a bit too much of you came off the couch. He quickly hid in the shadows of the hallway, planning his escape as you tried to get your bearings after your rude awakening.

You rubbed your head, groaning as you slowly stood. You waddled over to the kitchen to get a glass of water before chasing the lingering sleep to your bed. You felt his gaze, you had become more aware of it once you had given up on shutting the monster out. You grabbed a cup from the cupboard and filled it was tap water. The stream filling the glass was the only sound that could be heard throughout the house.

You leaned back against the counter as you sipped the water. Glancing around the room hoping to spot your watcher but you as always, you never could. You sighed shaking off the gaze and setting the cup in the sink before heading towards your bedroom.

You made it halfway towards your hallway before you spotted the silhouette in the shadows. Your brain was yanking at the reigns of your body to run, hide, call someone, ANYTHING. Yet you just… stood there. Not as if you were frozen in fear, but as if you were having a staring contest with your intruder.

You took a deep inhale and let it out in a sigh before you continued your walk to your room. You knew that this could possibly be your final moment, but it was almost 4 am and you were still incredibly tired. So with logic to the wind, you walked past Micheal who kept his gaze on you the entire time.

You couldn’t see his face, but it was contorted in pure confusion- Why weren’t you running? Why weren’t you cowering in fear. He stared in shock as you reached your bedroom door at the end of the hallway.

Your hand grabbed the knob turning it gently, before glancing back at the man who now stood on the opposite side of the hallway, still watching. You opened the door slowly, turning back to face him.

“… Theres uh- Theres leftovers in the fridge. Spaghetti. You can have some if you want, just put the plate in the sink when your done please.” You spoke quietly, before quickly closing the door to your room. Immediately jumping under your covers as if you were a child hiding from the monster in your closet, but you knew even a child wouldn’t be dumb enough to offer a monster DINNER.

You squeezed your eyes shut and cut out the world as you let sleep take over, hoping to awake the next morning.

You did in fact wake up the next morning, your bedroom door was left open, which you let go quickly considering the fact that you were still alive. You slowly crept out to the living room, glancing around to make sure your visitor hadn’t stuck around. You didn’t see anyone, or feel any gaze so you walked to your kitchen feeling more safe.

There was a bowl left on the counter, you furrowed your eyebrows at it. “Dude breaks into my house, eats my food, and I ask him ONE thing and he can’t even do it? Unbelievable.” You fake being dramatic to yourself, as you set the bowl in the sink and begin making yourself breakfast.

You begin cracking eggs into a bowl when you hear the creak of your back door opening. You pause momentarily, before continuing your cooking. A few silent seconds later and you feel the familiar gaze resting on the back of your head.

You continue your cooking and point to the table,

“If you want breakfast sit down and it’ll be done soon” it came out more confident than your offer last night and you hope that you didn’t anger him. Thankfully, you hear a chair being pulled out and you take a glance to see Micheal sitting, his gaze still locked on you.

Sometimes you still wonder why he hadn’t killed you. He doesn’t talk much but in his more talkative moments he joked that he only kept you around for your food. Though in truth sometimes he doesn’t really know the answer. He doesn’t believe in love at first sight. Hell he didn’t even believe in love period before he started hanging around you. Yet something about you stuck out to him, but he has a lifetime with you to figure it out.

[ ♛ ] send me a url and i'll tell you...

@emptyvictory said: ♛ + my url if we're copying each other? Lol

[ ♛ ] send me a url and i'll tell you the following;

my opinion on;

character in general: oh my god. niko bellic. i can’t explain to you the love affair that i have with this sassy ass motherfucker of a man and how much i want to hold him close and tell him that he’s good enough, though i bet he’d shove me away and tell me to never do that shit again and that i’m weird for doing it at all. he’s got such an amazing duality to him that i am in love with because like. yeah, he’ll fucking kill a buncha dudes, but then he’ll have a conversation in the car with a buddy about how he’s okay with saving some lives or some shit. he’s known to play peacemaker for some, but he’s also willing to smash a cameraman’s face in by kicking his foot through his skull because he doesn’t want to be on manny’s show. then when manny dies he says some callous ass shit about it and then goes about his business like nothing happened. niko is such a good man, he really is, but he’s also not at the same time, and is capable of doing such awful things. characters like that have always had a special place in my heart, and niko is no different. that accent helps an awful lot, too, lemme tell ya. it gives ya girl the vapors. *fans self* which is funny because i don’t actually find the man to be conventionally attractive, but all of that stuff i mentioned above? i mean... i’d let him touch me. i can’t lie.  how they play them: now, rory, i know we’ve had this discussion before, but i’m going to say it again (to fuel your ego because i absolutely love doing that because i want you to feel as special as you truly are, and just because this is how i actually feel and i want to keep being honest about this stuff because secrets don’t make friends!!): if there were anyone else behind the wheel here taking charge of this slavic badass, i’m not so sure i’d even be interested in trying to have a thread with them at all. you bring such a take to this man that i cannot truly explain with words in an adequate way that could do you and what you do with him any justice. it’s just... an experience. and it’s an experience that i have loved from the moment we started all the way up till now, and i know i’ll feel the same way (and still quite as strongly!!) with anything and everything that we do in the future, be it with threads or asks or things in discord or just nonsensical little back-and-forths that we share once in a while when the mood strikes us. i love everything that we’ve done/are doing/will do, and i cannot fully describe to you just how much more i still want to have with you. i’m like mercy is with niko apparently; i’m fucking insatiable with these two. they’ve somehow become my OTP and that’s truly saying something since the last one i had lasted forever (all the way up to this point tbh--the one i told you about with my RDR verse where mercy and jack were supposed to get married? like, it’s managed to override even THAT one in my heart, that’s how much these two mean to me). i will never tire of niko x mercy content, i will ALWAYS want to hear your ideas about them, i will ALWAYS want to hear any ideas that you have for them--no matter how big or or how small they might seem, i will ALWAYS want to hear any ideas you might have for AUs with these two... i mean. i think you get the picture, yeah? BUT IF YOU DON’T COME FIND ME ON DISCORD AND I’LL GLADLY ELABORATE EVEN MORE IF YOU WANT, BECAUSE I COULD TALK ABOUT THESE FUCKERS FOR HOURS. I MEAN, YOU KNOW THAT I ALREADY HAVE, SO DON’T THREATEN ME WITH A GOOD TIME HERE, LMAOOOO. the mun: oh god, rory. ohgodohgodohgod. there are so many things that i want to say here, but i feel like you’ve heard me say them a thousand times already. i just... i want to make sure that you know that i love you, first and foremost. a lot of folks seem to think i throw the word ‘love’ around far too freely, but i very much beg to differ; i only use it when i truly mean it and when it truly means something to me. do with that knowledge what you will. you are such a treasure to me, and i can’t tell you how happy i am that you’re apart of my life and how much i wish we lived closer to one another so we could be silly together and i could actually ruffle your hair and give you platonic forehead smooches and wish you a good day at school each morning and then see you after classes and ask you about your day and talk to you about anything and everything as we sat side by side and watched some garbage like ancient aliens or played some ridiculous video games together while coming up with scenarios, both of us being like “oh my god, could you imagine if niko and mercy ____ together???” and things like that. but even if we aren’t closer, it doesn’t make me value your time that you give to me any less, and it doesn’t make me love the time that we spend talking with one another any less, either. i adore you so fucking much. i just... i just really, really, really love you, and i wish i could show you that better than just with some writing or a crappy doodle here and there you know? you deserve such good things. all the good things in life, in fact, and i wish i were capable of giving them to you. but i hope that you know that i truly am grateful for your presence in my life, i can’t imagine my experience here (or away from here and over on discord instead!) without you, as you’ve become such an integral part of my experience on this hellsite. niko and mercy are my OTP, and i’m yours for as long as you’ll have me, and you are very much stuck with me!

do i;

follow them: bitch, please. of fucking course i do. i can’t imagine not following rory. rp with them: as much as i possibly can and hopefully then some; i can’t get enough of niko and any other characters they want to introduce me to that they think mercy could mesh well with... or that she couldn’t mesh well with and yet could still make an amazing dynamic all the same. :P want to rp with them: are... are you illiterate? YES. ALL THE TIME. ALL DAY, ERRYDAY.  ship their character with mine: one more time, for those in the back, and with feeling!: YES, YES, YES, A THOUSAND TIMES YES. i am so, so, so grateful that niko is part of mercy’s narrative (and honestly, i may even make it so that he’s part of her actual main backstory, that’s how much their relationship means to me and how much it’s allowed me to see her in so many different ways).

what is my;

overall opinion: holy shit i love you and i love niko and i love the way you play him and i love the way you really show his duality and i love the way he learned to respect mercy and how that respect turned to admiration and the way that admiration turned to full on attraction and how that attraction turned to awkward dating but not dating and how that awkward dating but not dating eventually turned into actual dating and how that led to mercy finally kissing him and how that kiss made him feel relief more than anything else but then how all of that turned into something even more awkward and how that led to mercy realizing finally how much she actually truly loved him despite never having been in love and despite the hurt that it caused and the way they both dealt with it (two hardened killers acting like BABIES omggggg) until finally, finally they were able to come to terms with it and are now left wondering where they’re supposed to go from here since they’ve never done anything like this before... AND ALL THE AUs WE COULD HAVE AND HOW THAT COULD END UP FOR THEM BOTH HAS ME SO FUCKING EXCITED BECAUSE WE COULD GET A CHANCE TO SEE THEM BEHAVE IN A DIFFERENT WAY LIKE WHAT IF THEY START OUT HATING EACH OTHER BUT HAVE A MUTUAL ATTRACTION BECAUSE NIKO’S LIKE ‘GODDAMN THIS BITCH IS STACKED BUT SHE’S GOT SUCH A MOUTH ON HER UGH’ OR MAYBE THE RDR AU COULD HAVE SOME STRIFE BETWEEN THEM SINCE MERCY RUNS WITH HER POSSE AND COULD POSSIBLY END UP HITTING A TARGET THAT HE PLANNED TO OR OR OR OMG THE POSSIBILITIES RORY OMFG THERE ARE JUST SO FUCKING MANY and i just can’t wait to experience them all with you and your interpretation of niko because it’s just so fucking good and they’re such a good couple and have such an amazing dynamic that have them both behaving in ways that sometimes are predictable but in others leave me reeling for days like ‘holy shit that actually fucking happened??’ and THAT, my friend, is the sign of a good writing partner. and that is exactly what you are to me, amongst many, many other things. <3 i love you so very much and while i know you’ve had a rough go of it lately, i wish you all the best with it, know that i’m here for you if you should need me for ABSOLUTELY anything you might need (whether it’s to talk/vent, write you silly drabbles, or draw you things), and know that you’ll always, always, ALWAYS have my support through whatever you’re going through. though part of me knows that you know that you don’t need it because you’re so fucking strong and capable of absolutely anything that you put your mind do.

i love you, boo. never forget that. please.

**Note: Mun’s answer are all to be completely honest. Don’t send url if you don’t want brutal honesty.

@more-than-a-princess​ 🎉 We’ve been mutuals for ages, and this makes me so happy! 💡 I have a thread idea for us! 💌 I just think you’re amazing (I will get off my lazy butt and send a well-written ask. Maybe tomorrow if you're ok with that? :D But in general, you're one of my best and closest friends and I'm so happy our paths crossed on this site!)

Sʏᴍʙᴏʟs ғᴏʀ ᴛʜᴇ ᴍᴜɴ

Rae! I’m so glad we met, you have no idea. The feeling is mutual; you have been such a positive presence in my life, a one of my closest and best friends – one of the most wonderful people that I have met on this hellsite, period. You are so talented in all your endeavors, I don’t get tired of reading your threads and your cosplays are lovely as well, but none of them compare to the wonderful mun behind the princess. Hard working and a very caring friend, you supported me during a very rough time and I’ll always be grateful. You’ve also been a great inspiration for me to writer longer details, helping me to feel more confident in my writing.  Oh, and my partner-in-crime when it comes to both angst and salt. And, of course, it is always a delight to interact with Sonia: the fluff are always entertaining and the situations are engaging, both back with Hajime and with Shirou – Sonia is such a strong presence, there’s hardly a dull moment with her! (much to my muses’ chagrin sometimes). And the angst? – chef’s kiss - Give me all the threads / asks you want. I think I know what you mean by that one… But don’t need to push yourself, I know things have been a little tight with the deadlines at work. Take your time, have a good drink and do when the inspiration hits.

(also, the description of the Monokumadult in the first game is a huge mood just sayin’)

[carlottastudios]

Can I just say it?

There are some really. Really. Fucking. FANTASTIC! People! On this site.

And I’m going to call out those I know right here right now.

@with-this-crownofthorns

Probably the first fellow Storm Hawker I actually chatted with on this site. And whom I swear I don’t talk to enough. In all of our interactions, you have been sweet and funny and just so nice! Please can we talk Storm Hawks sometime and scream together about how much we physically and psychologically need this show to return?

@stormageddon-101

I already called you out in a recent post, friend, but I AIN’T FINISHED! I swear to the gods, you are, in my eyes, one of the most bombastic, awesome and badass fans out there! And now I just love talking to you so much! I am legit ecstatic that I got to connect with you again after, what, years of relative silence? Yeah, we knew each other on DA and we found each other again. Not just with Storm Hawks, but also Voltron and The Dragon Prince, and maybe more, who knows?! We share many interests, but we also have our differences (as our current chat here on Tumblr no doubt proves), and I just find that amazing. You’re a mother effin storm queen, my friend. And you make me so so happy.

@melonstar21

YOU! You magical pixie of liking ALL OF MY POSTS?!?!!!! I know I’ve already thanked you before, but I’m going to do it again! Thank you! So very much! Don’t think for a second I don’t notice how your likes make up 80% of my activity page, AT LEAST. I’m shocked and touched and amazed that you keep up with my random-ass self so again, thank you!

@mx-kit

Buddy. Fren. Bruh. KIT! You already know you are DA BEST! DA! BEST! I can’t say it enough!!! Your crazy matches my crazy and our daily chats on Discord never cease to fill me with joy!!! You are incredibly generous with your drawings and your time and your sheer enthusiasm, and you are one of the kindest and most wholesome people I’ve ever had the utter joy of meeting on this or any site. I can’t even remember how I managed to luck myself into our friendship, but I’m so goddamn happy the universe saw fit to bring us together. I swear if/when we meet IRL, your ribs are going to be in serious danger because I’m gonna hug the shit out of you and just-GODS! I can’t stress this enough! You’re oodles and oodles of wonderful and I’m so grateful to you for blessing me with your presence.

@sunder-the-gold

How such a clear genius and master of common sense and logic came to view my blog as worth their attention is beyond me. I take so much joy in reading your thoughts in your many, many, MANY posts. You inspire to want to think more and type more in my comments, though your seemingly endless energy almost exhausts me just watching my dash fill to the brim with your reblogs. I don’t think we’ve ever had the chance to talk at length, but regardless, I admire you a lot and respect you and think you’ve more than earned this callout.

@mojo72400

Like Sunder, we haven’t known each other long. But it is still mind-boggling to me how we share SO MANY RWBY SHIPS! Like, it is SO uncanny! You’re very fun to talk to and I love your RWBY Husbands posts: they never fail to make me laugh or grin and they’re just a ray of sunshine! Keep doing what you’re doing, my friend! You’re doing it so well!!!

@lightning-claw

I swear to the gods, you. Yes, you! YOU are the flaming light that’s keeping the Storm Hawks fandom alive! At least on this site! I just-I just can never EVER get enough of you or your posts! You’re such a wonder and you just fill my little Storm Hawker heart with tons of joy and happiness and UGH! LET ME WALLOP-HUG YOU, ATMOSIAN SENPAI!!!

@cloudburst-paint-water

Again, we have not known each other long, fellow Hawker. And hopefully that will change!!! I’m always so happy to receive an ask from you and would be more than happy to chat Storm Hawks (or whatever other fandom we have in common) with you!!! Also, you too are a sugary-sweet magical glittery like pixie. Be proud of that fact.

@laserdog10

A new member of the like-fairy army, hmm? Except it’s not just likes for you, isn’t it? Nah. YOU REBLOG MY S**T! AND YOU MAKE ME SO HAPPY!!! THANK YOOOOUUUUUUU!!!

@maxgentlman2

Another fellow Hawker I have recently began to call friend. I just-Thank you! Thank you for existing and being here and writing and having so many ideas and sharing them and blessing me and everyone with your lovely self! I’m sorry I don’t reply to you as often or as quickly as you deserve. Because you deserve to be showered in notes and praise of all sorts! Thank you so much!

@p-r-imeday

We knew each other back on DA, and yet here we are, also on Tumblr! Also, I’m embarrassed to admit this, but I’ll be honest, I don’t even remember where and/or how our aquaintanceship (friendship?) started. But like a phoenix, it’s rising again from the ashes, and I’m so happy it is! You are legit hilarious and so very talented and I want to chat with you again!

@esperhuntress

Your majesty. Your ladyship. Your grace. QUEEN OF OZGLYN!!! I am legit blessed to have found you as an RP partner, and I lament only that we don’t speak nearly as often as I wish we did and that I no doubt strain your patience with my late late LATE LATE LAAAAATE replies. Of course I understand that you’re busy, and I absolutely will not try to force myself on you by trying to chat with you at inconvenient times, but just please know that you’re amazing and lovely and I’m so happy you are not only my favourite Glynda, but also one of my first ever friends in the OzGlyn niche of RWBY. And I’m so grateful. (And so ridiculously sorry for keeping you waiting in our thread DX)

There are more lovely, decent people I could call out, and who deserve to be called out, but my hand is getting really tired from typing, so I’m just going to tag some of you:

@ozcarpin, @tellme-professorozpin, @deeptrashfury, @ozpin-defense-squad, @ya-boi-aerrow, @luveus, @chuckles-the-jester

And to everyone who I tagged and to every decent person out there I haven’t tagged: I love you. I love you all so much! Thank you for putting up with this hellsite to grace it with your presence. Decent people like all of you really make the world a better place.

[frequencyfound]

8, 9, 11, 15, 38 !!

I should really just title this “I talk a lot” ◊ @simplyechoes​

( cut for length, because i really do talk that much)

Name any three things about the rpc that bother you.

As someone with a lot of opinions? It’s a bit hard to narrow down on ‘the three things I can’t stand the least’ so this is in no particular order and just random gripes of mine:

People who do not tag triggers. I absolutely understand forgetting or not knowing you had to tag something ( I do that too, so it’d be very hypocritical of me not to ), but I will never get people who make the conscious, constant and generalised decision to not tag triggers at all, any trigger. It’s such an easy thing to try and make the rpc more accessible and safer for everyone. 

The pressure to write with everyone/be friends with everyone/do all the things/reply quickly/etc. I absolutely respect and love the fact that some writers work best that way, because we’re all different and amazing in our own ways and deserve to be celebrated in that sense. However (and this will 100% cross with an answer to a following question), it’s absolutely more than okay to not do it all. It’s okay to be tired, it’s okay to take a break from writing, it’s okay to just do memes and not long threads, it’s okay to come back after months because you had to take care of yourself (and your life, and your loved ones) and it is 100% okay to not be comfortable writing with everyone or to not want to spread yourself too thin or what have you. It’s okay to have your own rules and stick to them. You don’t have to do it all, and that should be celebrated and respected, too. I feel like sometimes it’s not. 

The very toxic mentality that someone having opinions (especially different from your own) is somehow bad or deserves to be mocked or ridiculed when that person expresses them simply in ’I disagree with this’ or ’This makes me uncomfortable’ terms. Obviously there are important exceptions (which shouldn’t even be called exceptions since they seem like common sense, but it’s the term that fit best here) if whatever that other person is defending is foul (whitewashing/incest/non-con/the whole list that follows), but overall, if it’s just a case of differing opinions? I really dislike that the rpc does not always allow a space for that (or at least, a space for that without the fear of being called-out/attacked).

What is your opinion on exclusivity? Do you practice it? Why / why not?

For the longest while, I understood, respected and enjoyed the idea of exclusivity without ever practising it. In truth, I wasn’t holding myself to the positive standards I viewed the exclusivity of others in. 

It changed when I witnessed some narratives which made me deeply uncomfortable and include a character I write (Hélène, in the interest of honesty). Then, exclusivity was not a concept I felt like I had no right to, but a necessity to protect myself from topics I did not want to write, and point of views I did not want to entertain or associate with. When I allowed myself to be uncomfortable (something I’d never allowed myself before, despite the fact I had definitely been uncomfortable and just chose to sweep it under the rug for the sake of ‘not wanting to cause drama’), I started applying what I preached about others being exclusive to myself. 

(I’m going to note here that talking to someone about something which genuinely makes you uncomfortable is not ‘creating drama’. We all have rights to a safe and happy space to write, but I know sometimes rp pressures can make it seem differently.)

I’m now in a place where I could be exclusive, and would never rule it out. On accounts or muses I am not, it is usually a reflection of my own comfort with the fandom. On muses and/or accounts I am open to exclusivity, it is not just about my own comfort, but also because of the relationships (both ic and ooc) I’ve crafted with people I’m exclusive with, because I love writing first and foremost for the in-depth relationships (not necessarily romantic, but of any kind). 

Tl;dr: Prioritizing your own comfort is not creating drama. Being exclusives with someone is not creating drama, and the fact someone might think the contrary baffles me. Being exclusives with people is cool. Not being exclusives with people is cool, too. It’s whatever float your boat, so long as it comes from an earnest place of comfort and joy and mutual respect. We are all here to do what makes us happy in an environment we can feel safe, at ease and having fun in, and it’s up to each individual to decides what works for them and their muses.  

What do you know now about rp that you wish you knew when you first started?

It’s okay to take care of yourself. I think this links back to everything I just said, but it’s okay to not be this superhero who has a job/studies/spends time with friends and family/replies within a day/chats ooc with people/has a great sense of humour/is always here and cheerful/never says no to a thread/writes with everyone despite discomfort that might be felt with some people. It’s okay to have rules, it’s okay to stick to them or not, it’s okay to set your own limits. In fact, please set your own limits. Please create a space where you know you will feel happy and safe and have fun without all the unnecessary pressure or impostor syndrome that can come with roleplaying. 

Please take care of yourself. 

Don’t let your energy and fire burn out for a hobby. 

It’s taken me a while to get there and I’m admitedly still learning, but I wholeheartedly believe this is something important.

( Also, don’t give in to people trying to compare you with others, as well-meaning and complimentary as they may seem. Writing is to some extent inherently comparative, especially when done online, and I have insecurities of my own, as I’m sure many others do. There’s no need for us to cater to anyone that tries to play on them to make us or other people feel lesser than or invalid. Plurality of interpretations should be celebrated! ) 

How has rp changed you personally?

I think the most obvious way rp has changed me is that it actually improved my english. That’s why I started writing on tumblr, why I still write. When I got to University, I had no real way of making sure my english writing was ‘good enough’ or ‘academic enough’ for essays, and I figured that if I could write fiction easily, I’d be able to transfer some things to academic projects. 

Rp also brought some wonderful people into my life. Some which are still here and hopefully will want to stick around for a while, some with which I lost contact. I’m grateful for everyone of them. I am forever amazed at any friend I make on this hellsite and how talented and creative and lovely (and a long list of adjectives I won’t bore you with) every single one of them is. They’re wonderful people and I can’t say enough good things about them. I’m so lucky I got to hang out and meet some of them in real life. 

May we all be so lucky to meet people like that. 

What advice would you give to someone new to rp?

Have fun! Take care of yourself! Do you! This will 100% link back with a lot of my previous answers, but I am a believer that what matters at the end of the day is that you can look back on your blog and look back on the people you wrote with and the threads you wrote and the threads they wrote and just feel warm and happy and safe and at ease. 

Roleplay is first and foremost a hobby, it’s here to bring you joy. There can sadly be a lot of unhealthiness on this site but, trust me, you don’t need all the clutter that might derail you from your own joy. 

I know written like that, it seems easier said ( well. written ? ) than done. I’ve been there ( sometimes, I’m still there too ) and I know it can seem like an uphill climb when you just want to make others happy, but you need to be happy too. It’s not a one-way street. 

Just have fun, sail your own boat, focus on the people and writings and muses which make you happy. 

That’s good life advice, too. That, ‘don’t be afraid to make mistakes and ask for help’ and ‘don’t let anyone harsh your mellow’. 

[kae-karo]

things i’m grateful for

okay preface: i hate the reason thanksgiving was invented ofc but i do love the concept of taking a day to sit back and remind myself of the things in my life that i’m grateful for so here we go (and pls i encourage y’all to take some time and do the same) anyway feel free to read below the cut if y’all want way too much insight into my personal life lmao

my friends

without question, my experience both in the phandom and like in life in general has so massively improved thanks to these lovely people and i can’t say i’d be as happy a person as i am without them

of course my incredible gcs (jolly best friends and dickmates, “moderate sex references”, we have goldfish memories, katashen, and the gc that always changes names lmao) and the lovelies in them @thereisnobearonthisisland @philsroots @uselessphillie @daliensgrandads @severaltortillascollector @dnptrqsh @dip-and-pip-trash @transhowell @dreamdilddy @hey-itskxt @dreamdilddy @freckliephil @philsdrill @phloridas @lovestillaround @legdabs @amczingphil @phantasieslide @maanjha @manialester @sleeplessnightwithphan @phandumb @imnotinclinedtomaturity @auroraphilealis @ineverywordisay @glitterydanandphil @kerasines @workinprogress91 @merridewhoo @natigail @swissfuckingcheesegdi @phastelpink​ @stick-it-to-the-phan @phanarchy

my dearest friends irl with whom i never spend enough time and often bail on bc i’m tired of existing around people, but who never fail to be lovely and kind and wonderful friends anyway. i’ve known them for eight years now and i am so lucky to have found them and to still be friends with them

a very good friend of mine who taught me everything i know about customer service and just being a diligent person (she’s also literally the reason i link everything so uhh thank her lmao) who i consider my lesbian big sister and who i’ve been so so lucky to get to reconnect with and will get the opportunity to work with starting in december and who even remembered one of my fave bands like after literally two years when i only mentioned them one time i love her

my family

whomst thank fuck are not on this hellsite but i love them all dearly

my sister who’s like still figuring her life out and doing a way better job of deciding what she enjoys doing than i ever did and like she’s younger than me but it’s a constant lesson that hey look it’s good to be true to yourself and do what you want. and i’m so grateful that we don’t fight the way we used to, that we’re like partners in crime and that she actually likes spending time with me and thank god she’s not gonna see this bc she thinks i get too sappy sometimes but i gotta make up for hiding her glasses when we were younger and literally forgetting about them for two weeks okay <3

my parents who have always been steadfast supporters even when they don’t love my choices. without them, i wouldn’t be where i am today, i wouldn’t have the level of independence i do today, and honestly i wouldn’t have learned to find the strength to follow my own path. i also can’t thank them enough for supporting even when they don’t understand, like they literally do not understand dnp but my dad found out they were doing ii and asked if i would want tickets for christmas and my mom always asks about my writing

my grandma who, bless her soul, has been completely alone without my grandpa for two years now, after having been with him since she was sixteen, who reminded me (unintentionally) that people who are suffering from mental health issues (she’s had depression for years now) can so greatly benefit from having someone reach out. i’m grateful for our weekly calls where we just catch up, because sometimes i go for a year without seeing her in person (usually just for the holidays) and it’s good to know how things are going with her. i’m also eternally grateful to her for reminding me that people are just people. my parents often talk about her as if she’s some one-dimensional character who only has a handful of (negative) personality traits, and it’s nice to get to know her on my own

the rest of my extended family, who, although i’m not nearly as close to, are still always fun to see during the holidays, and i’m immensely grateful that i don’t have the kind of family that i dread seeing. there’s always entertainment, overflowing alcohol (not that i partake, but everyone else has a fuckin blast with it), and laughter and although i occasionally feel a bit outside the circle (lots of cousins getting married/in relationships/etc and uhhh can’t relate lmao) i never fail to look forward to seeing everyone

y’all

yeah ik it’s cheesy but i do really appreciate y’all so much? like. i just read this note i made to myself abt something unrelated a year ago but i’d offhand mentioned that i was so so thrilled to have almost a hundred people following me. like it just blew my mind that so many people were interested in what i had to say, in my writing at the time, etc. and now,,,,,i mean. jfc i can’t even begin to fathom what i must’ve done to deserve all of y’all, and to deserve you all being so kind. like since the minute i joined tumblr i saw/heard horror stories of mean anons, of people being rude for the sake of it, etc etc. and like. of the literal thousands of asks i’ve gotten, i can count on one hand the number of even vaguely unkind ones. it just makes me so immensely happy to know that such lovely, kind people want to participate in this blog. so please know that i appreciate the existence of every single one of you not just uwu bc u follow me and that’s what i’m supposed to say or w.e but bc you’re out here making a positive impact on the world and on me, and you’re the kind of lovely person that i’m so glad i have the pleasure of existing alongside

dnp

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ u knew it was coming, but honestly i am grateful to them as people

they set such fantastic examples for how to be good humans, constantly donating their time to good causes, reminding us to take care of ourselves, and doing their best to figure themselves out which yes is so incredibly important bc it’s this amazing example of how people aren’t any perfect shiny version of themselves, they’re real and raw and imperfect and that’s why we love them???? and by extension, that teaches us self love and love for others

that’s another thing i really didn’t realize at first - how much self-hatred i was harboring, how much internalized homophobia (toward myself! never others) and how much i just accepted about the world (heteronormativity, misogyny, the lack of diversity in media, the list goes on) and a lot of things said by both dnp and by the phandom have helped open my eyes to things like that. and dnp helped me realize that being ace isn’t a bad thing??? which was such a horrible thing i’d held onto for years and years

so i’m so grateful to dnp for existing, for being who they are and how they are and for encouraging the wonderful kindness and acceptance that they want to see in the world

my therapist

and to daniel and depression for convincing me to see one. i’ve let go of a lot of the baggage i was holding onto over the time i’ve been seeing my therapist and i’m grateful to her for, well, doing her job. and for doing it well, and for asking the questions that i didn’t think to ask, to get at things i didn’t think about before. and for reminding me (not directly, but by virtue of her existence) that honesty is one of the most important things to me

my job

or just generally the jobs i’ve had over the years that force me to interact with people, because it’s taught me that nobody’s ever angry or upset for no reason, and that people who are angry or upset and mean are not mean because they’re actually trying to be vicious but because they’re suffering in some way. so it’s a daily reminder to treat everyone with kindness and not take things personally, because ultimately most people are not intentionally vicious people. and i’m grateful to my job for reminding me how meaningful it is to me to help others

#privilegecheck

i think it’s important at this point that i stop and remind myself that i was born with a lot of privilege that makes my life immensely easy compared to others. i’m grateful for my upbringing and the ways that i’ve benefited from my privilege, but i need to acknowledge that i have benefited. not everyone is as lucky, and i need to be mindful of that in the things i do and say, and in the actions i choose to take, and - when i can - i should be using my privilege to help others

and finally, my greatest of thanks goes out to the fic writers, the gif makers, the edit makers, the phan artists, and all the other lovely people who make this community so wonderful

[iwatchanimeoccasionally]

Ok, I wanna get a bit sappy here if that’s okay with you. Because it’s midnight and I’m tired, it’s been a long day and I’m oddly emotional. 

So, I wasn’t raised in a family where we went around the table to say what we were thankful for on thanksgiving. We all just take each other for granted and if anyone says anything remotely sincere like that, we assume they’re mocking or sarcastic and we mock back. That’s just how I was raised. (Which is probably why I have a hard time responding when you guys are nice to me) But this year I’m really grateful for a lot of things and I don’t like the idea of not acknowledging that. 

So, um, yeah. I’m grateful for this hellsite for introducing me to a bunch of people who I would consider my close friends, even though I don’t interact nearly as much as I want. And I’m sure you know who you are if you’re one of them, even if I won’t say names because, as much as I love you and feel we are close, I would feel terrible if I actually claimed we were friends and you didn’t feel the same. And I’m grateful for everyone who has encouraged my writing since I started writing Tododeku plus the patience from those of you who actually ask for me to write things and then are incredible patient as I take years to write even though I technically probably have plenty of time to write and just don’t have the mental will to do so. Speaking of writing, I know I wasn’t going to name names, but I feel like @sweater-gays should get a special thanks for getting me into writing Tododeku in the first place but you boys can feel free to just ignore this post that is already running way too long.  

I’m also so thankful for my pets, Larry specifically, for just being there. She’s been there for me for a lot of stuff that I couldn’t have gotten through otherwise. She is also a huge part of why I have these wonderful friends that I’m thankful for, in part because I firmly believe (maybe because it’s the truth, maybe my low self esteem, it’s hard to say) she is the foundation for our initial interactions. But, even if that weren’t the case, I wouldn’t have ever started talking to people (or possibly be here) if not for her. And of course, the other pets are amazing and I’m grateful that they put up with me even though I like more interaction than they do and sometimes forget to just leave them alone because I want to be loved. 

And a side note that I won’t go too in depth of because it has very little to do with this blog. I’m grateful for my job that I love and my coworkers who make me love it. And I’m grateful for my family for supporting me for my entire life so that I could get to this point that is objectively the happiest I’ve ever been. And I’m grateful for Midnight for being my best friend for 13 years of my life and being there for me when no one else was even though he left us too soon and I don’t know that I’ll ever fully recover from that.

Interrupting my weird hiatus

To give a shoutout to my day 1, my number 1, Zara/Z/zaroo paroo💕💛 (aka @deartomhardy) and my dumbass panini head

Today we celebrate our 1 year friendaversary 🧡💕🎉 and while we hate each other a little bit (ok a lot like 99% of the time) there are also SO MANY things that I love and appreciate about her.

So even though technically to celebrate ONE year I would only be grateful for ONE thing, I’ve decided to do 12, one for each month that we’ve been together as BFFS. Love u to the moon n back, never gonna give u up💕💛💙😘😍

1. From the absolute get go, you have always been so approachable and easy to talk to. I think this is one of the reasons why we’ve always gotten along so well.

2. I can always talk to you about anything. No matter what. Whether that’s dumb shit like having the hots for Hiddles or Evans, or serious stuff about what’s on my mind, you’re always there for me even if it’s 4am your time and you should be sleeping. 🙄

3. This might sound stupid, but you always make me laugh. Even if I text you in a 12/10 bad mood I can count on you to either join me in my pissy state OR to make me laugh so hard I squirt Red Bull out of my nose. I fucking love talking to you for hours on end. I will never tire of it 💜

4. No matter how busy we get, I love that even if it’s been a few days I can pick up the phone and we can pick up right where we left off. I never feel awkward talking to you (sadly no matter the subject, bc sometimes I think we need #boundaries) and that’s what I love the most about you. We’ve only been friends for a year on this hellsite but honestly it feels like I’ve known you my whole life 🧡

5. Your Red Bull addiction. Dude, you have a problem. Nothing is better than talking to u at 2am and thinking of u in ur pjs with like 3 half drank Red Bull’s next to you. Thank you for joining me in my addiction. (Except sugar free > regular sorry bitch)

6. YOU ARE SO FUCKING TALENTED!!!!!!!!! I cannot get over how happy it makes me reading your work. It absolutely blows my mind w the fact that English isn’t even your first language and you STILL. WRITE. BETTER THAN ME. I cannot even!!!!!! 😭😭😭

7. You’re the best fucking hype man. I love that all my fic ideas basically start and end with you bc you’re always there to talk through my ideas with me and help me make sure my writing is realistic and good. You’re THE BEST editor and soundboard and it’s one of the reasons ily so much 💖💖

8. We’re so fucking dumb together. I can’t get over how much I cackle at your snaps + Facebook tags. And I love youuuuhuuuHUUUUUUUUUUUU fhalirkwjddnsjjd some of my favorite memories over the past year have been staying up late talking to you 💛💛💛💛

9. You’re so compassionate. I don’t think I’ve ever met someone as kind, loyal, and caring as you. I feel like no matter what’s going on in your life you always put everyone else before you, and while that’s hard to see sometimes it’s also what makes you such an incredible friend. I’m so proud to know you.

10. I love that we love/hate each other. I can be exactly who I am with you and know that you will never judge me. You also call me out on my shit and keep me in line, which I 100% need. You’re the best friend, sister, and soulmate (I know I know just shut up ok) that I could ever ask for 🧡 I’ve never had a friendship as deep and meaningful as fast as our as been and I’m forever grateful

11. You’re fucking GORGEOUS (pics below to prove it) and I’ll just leave it at that. You deserve everything in the world that your heart desires 💜

12. I just love you. You’re the best internet friend a girl could ask for andddddd..... SURPRISE!!!!!! I might get to see you in just a few months 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 ✈️ pls love me forever ok I cannot live without youuuHHHHUUUUUUUU

Thirded! Love you very muchly and so so glad this show has given us a chance to meet you 😊❤️

Also, I’m rereading one easy answer before I start the third part, and in making myself go super slowly because it is so so awesome.

You know, I was trying the re-read the series slowly to enjoy the new installment on something else this week and failed entirely and stayed up all night reading instead.

More power to you, that you can manage it! :D 

(And yes, endlessly delighted to have met both of you *hugs*)

Alec’s *little whine* is our national anthem

It’s a good anthem. ;) I love that. (Also, like, it is clearly never going to be on the show and yet I am completely sure that everyone knows exactly what it sounds like.)

WHERE IS THE REST

I DON’T KNOW YET

/i don’t actually know how to write, it just sort of happens if I make myself sit down and scribble or type often enough?

He's my canon DA2 romance and yeah, part of me loves him out of spite, but most of me does because under everything I think he's a genuinely good person. Unlike some others you meet. Also, Varric is an unreliable narrator, so.....

HE IS SO NICE

HE JUST WANTS TO HELP

He’s like... constantly checking in on people and asking how they’re doing? The way he checks in rubs some people the wrong way, obviously, but I think the fact that he does it (more than any other character in the game even, iirc) is really important. Even if you don’t like him, (which obviously most people don’t) I think you should realize that he is trying to be nice to everyone. Like. It’s not that it’s easy to be polite (though I think for him it usually is) but that he is consciously trying to be helpful and nice to everyone.

The fact that he (sometimes) fails but still tries again is part of why it’s so endearing.
