͏͏͏͏͏͏ ͏͏͏͏͏͏⠀⠀ ͏͏͏͏͏on goodbyes.

i've been thinking about this for a while and it feels like the right choice for me, but i'm going to be leaving this blog and probably writing in general. i just don't feel happy anymore and that joy that i used to experience being here has shifted into guilt and leads me into depression.

it feels a bit silly to write this all out in all honesty, but i hate the idea of never explaining my absence. similar to my old blog, icepip will stay up as an archive so that what i've posted isn't lost, but it won't be updated anymore. i apologize for all the asks i've left unanswered, for all the stories i said i would write and share. it wasn't my intention but i simply can't continue to write.

i've never thought that i was good at writing but the need to express my ideas outweighed that lack of confidence. i wrote because i thought my ideas were worth sharing, even if it didn't sound the best. now, the scales have shifted too much and i can't find the drive to even try to put words on the screen. i just get stressed and upset and convince myself that it's not worth it. and that has gotten far too tiring for me to deal with.

logging in and seeing my mutuals and others i follow post and write and share, it fills me with such guilt that i can't be like that, too. i don't have the energy to read, i don't have the energy to engage. instead of getting inspired by others like i used to, i find myself slipping into depressive spirals.

i truly wish that i could write or even just simply exist here but it hurts to try to. i hope one day, i'll be proven wrong and i can come back, that the idea of being here doesn't make me want to cry. that i'll be able to write and share again. but i'm not going to hold my breath for it. i know myself too well, i know i give up and move on far too easily and i fear that this is what's happening now.

but thank you to everyone who was nice to me. who supported me and commented and reblogged my posts. who sent asks and engaged with me. thank you for bringing me joy and making me feel like i belonged. i truly, truly, appreciate everything you did.

and i'm sorry for everything i left unfinished, but i hope that if you followed me — whether for a short or a long time — that you enjoyed your time here. maybe one day our paths will cross again.

Hey! First of all, I just want to say I'm really really enjoying reading your posts <3 Thank you so much for your hard work all this time!

So, my TOTALLY COMPLETELY and maybe even "I'm reading too much into it" question/observation is: I was watching the 20190602 DDU episode where The8 (from Seventeen) appears (this one https://w.mgtv.com/b/327225/5735184.html?fpa=se&lastp=so_result) and, at 13:52 WYB winks, and the hosts say his wink created lightning (something like that) and the editors even add an effect. COULD IT BE an inside joke about XZ's introduction back on his 2017 X-NINE DDU? Or am I tripping? Hahahaha

Thank you <3

Hi 1camoli9, thanks so much for your kind words, I'm glad you're enjoying my blog! 😊

Here is the episode on YouTube for those who do not have Mango TV.

For those who are unaware, when X-NINE was introduced on DDU back in 2017, GG introduced himself as the energy generator of the group and did a cute winking gesture.

It is entirely possible that they are making a reference to that episode.

Here is that episode. The moment in question happens at 7:25 when GG is introducing himself. He refers to himself as the 'energy generator' of the group.

(This actually comes up again in connection with his appearance on the 11th anniversary episode with DD. They are being interviewed together backstage and they talk about the first time GG appeared on the show. DD asks him why he introduced himself that way and GG says that he was told to.)

Anyway, to get to your question, I would not put it past the DDU brothers to be referring to that, as they liked to tease him a lot about GG, but given the timing of all of this it's hard to say. They didn't start teasing him heavily about GG until after the taping of the 11th anniversary episode.

Taping of the 11th anniversary episode happened in mid July and the episode that you're asking about aired in the beginning of June.

We will probably never know for sure, so if you enjoy that CPN, you should continue to. It very well could be an inside joke about GG. His introduction did seem to make a big impression on all of them at the time of X-NINE's appearance.

Ok Inertia came in swinging with a beat that slaps so hard I forgot to duck and was knocked on my ass by the force that is the last two verses.

[pluralhottakes]

Love this blog already!

Anyways hot take, just because someone used something to hurt you, or someone of a group hurt you, doesn't mean that thing isn't necessarily real

A endogenic system hurt you? Well shit! That sucks i'm so sorry! You... Suddenly decided that whole group of people isn't real because of that?.... that ENTIRE GROUP OF PEOPLE aren't real cause YOU were hurt by a SINGLE one of them (or a singular system)

We aren't a hivemind, i cant stop whoever from hurting you???

Same goes for other things! Like Tulpas! And System Travel!!!

It just gives the same vibes as when i was a edgy 12 year old and decided i hate EVERYONE because a few people were shitty to me

Gyjo in the fandom

cw: light discussion of ableism

Gyjo… what am I thinking about gyjo…

I like them. I like them a lot, actually. They have paralleled narrative arcs, they complement each other nicely, the romantic subtext is incredibly obvious to the point that even the most homophobic fan you know will admit they understand why people ship it… so why do I also have a problem with it?

There’s a lot of good fanart. Hell, I’ve reblogged plenty. Maybe it’s just something that’s more pronounced in fic.

I’m trying to word this correctly. My issue with gyjo has nothing to do with the text itself. I think my problem is just how people portray it in the fandom.

Maybe it’s because it’s so popular, or maybe it’s the sheer prominence of applying ‘Character A’ and ‘Character B’ dynamics without considerable regard for the characters involved, but I feel gyjo is very prone to flanderization. I believe the intersection with how ableist people are toward Johnny (intentionally or not, subtly or not) and the old tropes these two get shoved into makes it so I have trouble enjoying fics in the fandom.

I’m not saying it’s bad to enjoy certain tropes. I’m not saying headcanons are bad either. What I am saying is that writing is hard, but if you’re going to write fanfiction please have consideration for the characters you’re writing. The arcs of these two are complex and multilayered, which is why I think they have such staying power, but I also think they also provide a good opportunity for us as writers and artists to examine our biases when it comes to the portrayal of certain groups, personality types, mental illnesses, queerness, disability, etc. and maybe come out better people for it.

I want Shard and E-123 Ω in the same room

Oh man. That'd be chaos.

From what I know of Shard, his verbal spar with Omega would be LEGENDARY. They've both got smart mouths on them, with Shard being the more witty and fast-talking of the two. They'd be arguing the entire time they fight.

The physical spar would also be something to see. I imagine that when they first meet, Omega would genuinely be trying to destroy Shard, but after they get more acquainted (they're both too chatty to let the misunderstanding go unaddressed forever) I imagine that they fight just for the hell of it whenever they happen to be in the same place. An outside observer would think that they're each other's nemesis meanwhile they're just catching up as they argue back and forth and dodge each other's bullets.

Their most common point of contention is over who the superior robot is, of course. They also get on each other's nerves a lot- Shard is way too mouthy for Omega to tolerate for long, and Omega's too gruff and single-minded for Shard's style.

They wouldn't be besties but they'd have a bond deeper than people might think. There's a bit of that shared background of former Eggman robots that now hate Eggman that makes it so they just can't hate each other. Like, they'd never show it, but they'd go out of their way to help each other out as long as they won't get caught doing so.

When Eggman builds another Metal Sonic, Omega and Shard have a fight beforehand to see who gets to destroy it first!

Literally me whenever someone sends an ask:

/pos, y'all make me so happy.

[hello-that-happened]

Psst, dunno if you already knew, but askgiegueandcrew is posting again. They're also making a fan fiction reboot of the story. Thought you might be interested. (I do enjoy seeing you go crazy in the tags)

*deep breath*

WHAT

WHYYYYY DIDN'T TUMBLR NOTIFY ME THAT @askgiegueandcrew IS POSTING AGAIN

also yes I'm totally going to check out the fanfic

[thefrogdalorian]

Having of those moments where I wish to yeet the like button into the sun or maybe make it so there was setting you could turn on so that people can only reblog posts (even better with the minimum requirement of adding at least one tag)!!

It's kind of absurd that one of my fics is getting close to 500 notes while simultaneously being one I've had the least actual human interactions come from. Like...... come on, that's now how it should be AT ALL!

Don't get me wrong, I'm so thrilled people are clearly finding it and I guess enjoying it(??) but just having endless likes without people letting me know what they enjoyed about it or even if they liked it kind of makes me sad. That's not why I want to share my writing here!

I love having those little human connections with others. I don't ever want my writing to feel transactional. I would love to talk to more people about things I've written. It's truly one of the best feelings and I would hate to lose that, the more I write or the more notes my fics get. Please don't be shy!! I get the social anxiety, but there is no reason to be. I am truly just a Din Djarin obsessed loser.

Anyway, whine over. I don't want to focus on the negatives here and I appreciate every single person who has ever left a positive interaction with something I've written. You are truly a light!
