Chad headcanons!

I hope you meant Chaz because who tf is chad 😭

Chase builds so many legos it’s insane

Is got him one of those Lego flower bouquets for like a date and dude almost had a mental breakdown (it’s the ✨trauma✨)

When they sleep they gotta have both like three fans and three blankets on them because they both have very different internal temperatures 😭😭

Their closet is like 85% flannels and they make no distinction between who’s is who’s

Double dates with Bree and Skyler

Douglas understands the gay and figured sth out so that chase can stop sleeping in a fucking glass tube because really wtf was that 😭😭😭 so

Chase has the most agridous bedhead because he sleeps like a fucking maniac (he has accidentally thrown kaz out of the bed on multiple occasions 😭😭😭😭)

If they have a house it has so many books (both comic books and regular books) and their all alphabetized because of chases magical autism power

If they stopped eating Chinese food for a month the place they order from from be like “damm y’all alright?”

They both have terrible sleep schedules and yet worry about each others sleep schedule

This

All of their pillows are like orthapidic because they deal with so much neck pain (don’t ask me why I just KNOW their posture is terrible)

Remind each other to take their meds

Their text convos are very unhinged in a very endearing way

They share custody of so many stuffed animals

(This one is from @secretsandlabrats) chase like has his own Lego building shed shack thing because why not everyone deserves hobbies (it reminds me of the commercial that’s like “somebody burned down my she shed”

Chase will like absentmindedly pick at his skin (because dermatillomania) and kaz will like let him know and shit

Idk if any of these make sense because my brain is fried but like feel free to keep sending me asks and shit I really like em!!!

[withered-rose-unbreakable-lotus]

Me: *goes back to screw videos to remember sth for inspo*

My brain: 15% paying attention to what I am actually looking for in the video, 85% staring at Kazuki.

Not to like. Patronize. But writing is hard and you're doing great and if you're struggling maybe take a break/ work on sth else for a bit because that's totally something you're 100% allowed to do. Writing is great until it isn't and you deserve to do it while it's something you love. Sending u strength in these trying times muah

i am objectively NOT doing great tbh. and i understand the concept of a break. but. every time i've left a wip for something else it's just never been finished? and also each fic has like a specific space in my brain that the energy of the writing lives. and i'm afraid if i leave dad lando i will never actually find that place again. also i just really want this fic to be done so i can share it, but now i fear it won't be finished bc i've ruined my own perception of it permanently. idk. bad week. i wish i could have had like 85 hours of uninterrupted time to bang this entire 60k thing out when it was all gelling in my mind, but unfortunately i do have a stupid real job and now it's just not all clicking like it was anymore.

perhaps i will feel better about this when it is not 2:30 am ?? who's to say. anyway, thx for your message, i unfortunately will never be kind to myself but i appreciate ur efforts anyway <3

i swear no one hates the pale princess and the six pygmies more than anyone that tries to make sense of genshin lore for any extended amount of time

like i am starting to feel at least like 85% confident (among many others) that we might FINALLY have our first fucking semblance of a clue as to what the events depicted in it could even be with the 3rd descender lore reveals bc like. 3rd descender being the light prince just Really clicks with multiple beats in there including but not limited to the specific mention of a "curse" falling the six pygmies from the remnants of the prince like. HUH. when the gnoses made from the 3rd are also described as a curse. and thats genuinely incredibly exciting bc it feels actually plausible.

but. because this book is still the actual worst designed to torture us all. that just also makes everything even more confusing 😭 bc one fairly prevalent thing (that i personally found quite compelling) with pale princess theories was her possible identity as the seelie ancestor who fell in love with a human and led to the downfall of their race. which has always been highkey giving the night mother destroying the moonlight kingdom and cursing the people of the pale princess into an "undead state, lingering at the point between life and death forevermore". like thats Way too on the nose with how the pale princess is literally the light princes lover so. yeah seelie ancestor always a strong contender for that one. but also what the fuck does that mean for the timeline

and dont even get me started with the pygmies like. who the fuck are the pygmies it makes me want to morb. obviously a ton of theories have tried to fit the archons as the pygmies but its always been a little ehhhhhh at least when attempting to fit our current archons as a whole (+ the whole. 6 pygmies 7 archons things). but the pygmies = cursed from the princes remains part is also like. very gnosis aligned after the fontaine AQ reveals so go figure. i hate this shit 😭

i also saw a speculation on the pygmies as the sovereigns given its likely scyllas already kicked the bucket at the point the 3rd descender happened (since he was already dead when the shade of life was creating egeria) so 7 lizards turning into 6 remaining pygmies in the story has no numerical dissonance. but that keeps raising questions still bc of how gnosis coded the princes death and the ensuing curse feels!! i hate this book have i mentioned that already. but i do find it a compelling argument solely on account of how much better the sovereigns would fit the timeline of sth that happened thousands of years ago Especially if the fall of the seelie queen is involved in any form. also read a good point that some of the pygmy descriptions could arguably fit the 2 of the ancient sovereigns slash likely candidates better than any archon, specifically apep for the pygmy only caring for its own garden and azhdaha for the blind one.

but then its like. if the betrayal of the 3rd was by the defeated and remaining sovereigns it kinda makes the gnosis thing another question mark. like we still lack so much info on the connections and the timeline between the stolen thrones of authority, the war of vengeance and ensuing weakening of the POs "functions" leading to the establishment of the vision system and the archon war and where the gnoses fall in all of this. hhhhhhhhhh

so like whether the six pygmies are some assortment of archons or the sovereigns or some other group altogether we are still so utterly clueless its terrible 😭

i think the only real theory that i think ppl should just let die is tsaritsa as the pale princess tho like. lmao aintnoway hoyo will ever make a playable character who has a very good chance of being the obligatory bronya expy be someone with a canon male love interest are you hearing yourselves 💀 its not even that i think itd be like shit writing or sth im just purely asking ppl to be realistic with the unfortunate self imposed limitations of a gacha game developer. though the tsaritsa somehow having a connection to the pale princess and the events of the story (assuming its the 3rd descender debacle) would be very fascinating.

also someone noted that the exiled pygmy taking the princes body to a "tree hollow" may not be literal at all and instead imply the 3rd after being killed and turned into the gnoses being integrated into the irminsul and all ensuing samsara rebirth cycles which.... interesting.

anyway. i hate pale princess and the six pygmies!!!!!

[sorryimananti-romantic]

omg i dont think u remember but yk how i mentioned in an ask that i was better than some smart dude (who i had a rivalry with) at physics?? so the "physics girl" title has been given to me (word got out that i got the highest physics exam score in my grade??) BUTTT this semester i have NOT been focusing in class, i havent attended 50% of our classes (mostly due to practicing for plays, attending school club meetings, falling ill once or twice), and 2nd semester topics are much harder than 1st 😭 AND this exam isnt gna be prepared by our teachers which means i gotta revise EVERYTHING we've covered?? 😭😭😭😭

im fearing that if i score low ppl will think im a fraud/will be disappointed in me/will think i cheated on the other exams ESPPP the physics teacher like omg he has so much faith in me its so overwhelminggggg i think i told you he prepared a physics question in our grade quiz and he said he knew i'd get it correct DUDEEE imagine if i score a 60 when my prev exam scores were 85/92 like he'd be soooo disappointed 😭😭😭😭😭😨😨😨 "anon what happened to you? you used to be so good at physics, UNLESS.... you used to cheat?? 😧" I CAN ALREADY HEAR THE CONVERSATION NOOO 😭😭😭

and dont even get me STARTED on maths like im literally becoming worse with time BROTHERRR the only topic i understand is geometry bro i think im failing this year 😭😭 BUT its fine bc i wanna fail either way (story for another time?)

omg i do remember you the one that made me think academic rivals AHAHAH

okay okay i hear you, this situation sounds all too familiar but listen--

you really don't need to worry about what other ppl will think, it happens! i hope your grade doesn't fall that much if at all, but don't be so worried about what other ppl or your teacher will think. nobody will think you're a fraud or you cheated just bc you didn't do as well (and this hasn't even happened yet!) it happens to the best of us!

i hope you have enough time to plan out how you're gonna revise everything, and since you're good in physics, i believe you will ace it this time too. it doesn't even have to be as good as last time, but around that grade should be fine! (manifesting you score even better tho). but don't let the worry eat you you'll only be wasting your time stressing about scenarios like these bruh 😭 just study hard and you'll be absolutely fine, no matter the outcome! and don't forget to have fun too- you know what they say all day work and no play makes jack a dull boy or sth JKHFSDKJGHJKDFHG

as for maths, NOW THAT'S RELATABLE ASF 😭 if it makes you feel better, i was the maths ace in school until i almost failed 2 times in a row bc i didn't like the teacher and then was very average another 2 times in a row until i finally got my shit together and earned my maths ace status back (i literally wasn't the maths ace anymore but who cares) BUT YOU WANT TO FAIL? ON PURPOSE? i'm waiting to hear all about it
