#that gacha life thing was a joke I do NOT want to be in that fandom again.

yuri lowell versus gacha games

(*Rays translations in these screenshots belong to me and have been inputted into my own game. full scene hasn't been posted yet)

ability to use his arm and thus fight with that arm lost temporarily in Link before being beat the absolute fuck up by a guy who nearly captured him, threw him in a dungeon and left him barely alive;

brainwashed/memory wiped and given altered memories temporarily in Asteria;

a transgressor from apparently (game shut down before we got a backstory - or frankly anything else at all) being caught committing a crime and put on Vision Central and thus condemned by the majority of the viewers as guilty in Crestoria;

Yuri doing just fine in Rays except Flynn's body is being used by another guy and he does not fucking like it and has a glorious meltdown and is no longer doing just fine upon finding out.

that, uh, does not include the fact that he was seen by Glastein in Rays arc 4 who has a deep obsession with dark hair officially he says black hair but yuri's is purple i'll die on that hill and he also likes lukius' hair too which is clearly brown so uh I'M saying dark hair and commented very very creepily on the length and shine of Yuri's hair and how he wanted to take it home with him.

so yeah! uh! Yuri's gacha life, everyone!

this year i am really getting back into stuff I liked when I was 8-10 what is happening.

first fnaf and slowly it's roblox. what's next.. GACHA LIFE???? CREEPYPASTA???

[aayakashii]

I received a super cute ask requesting a hc of the Jabberwock boys getting a plushie from the MC, but tumblr effed up my post for some reason?? So I'm posting again!

ANON THAT WAS SUCH A CUTE REQUEST AND I LOVED WRITING IT!!! ⸜(*ˊᗜˋ*)⸝ Thank you for sending it!! I based each plushie on the animal that's been assigned to their chibis, I hope that's okay!

How Jabberwock boys react after receiving a cute little plushie from MC

Otonashi Towa – bee plushie

Towa is a little bit confused because plushies aren't a huge part of his life and he never really played much with any.

But receiving anything from you makes him very happy because you're one of his favorite people, so he loves it regardless!!

He loved getting a little chubby bee because bees like flowers and he likes flowers so!! They're basically the same!

Towa likes his new little friend so much that he keeps it on him 24/7, even when he's frolicking in the Jabberwock meadows.

Which in turn makes the plushie all damp and dirty, but please don't be upset!

He tries giving it a bath every now and then, but having fun outside is one of the things he loves the most...

So the fact that he takes your gift with him every single time just means he treasures it a lot!!

He keeps on putting dandelions on the bee though, so keeping it clean is a hard task. But it's all because it remembers him of you! He has no regrets.

Speaking of regrets, be ready to get a teary-eyed Towa handing you the plushie, asking you to sew it back together after some bad encounter with an anomaly from time to time...

He will take a lot more care next time!! He promises!

Shiranami Ren – shark plushie

At first, he's gonna look at you like you grew three heads all of a sudden.

Why would you give him a cute gift like that? Do you want something from him???? Also does he look like someone who likes plushies cmon MC-

Yes. Yes, he does love plushies. And he is absolutely in love with your gift.

Ren will mostly keep his new friend inside his room, away from prying eyes (Haru's eyes, he means).

But after a while, he might stuff it inside his backpack whenever he has an exam or something hard he gotta do, because he considers it his moral support (also it is adorable and looking at cute things is great for your health-)

Mostly, however, they'll hang out together inside his room. Ren will hug it while playing one of his mobile games, and he swears the plushie is giving him a little bit more luck when he pulls the gacha...

After a while, Ren might begrudgingly ask you if you know how to sew little clothes, because he saw online how some people buy tons of clothes for their nuis and he kinda wants to do the same...

Don't laugh though! It took him a whole lot of courage to come ask this of you! He'll kick you out of his guild if you laugh!

Please sew clothes for his shark friend. Ren wants little cosplays of his favorite games and you're the only one who gets him.

Sagara Haru – kangaroo plushie

Oh no MC. YOU ARE GIVING HIM A NEW CHILD?????

"Why didn't you tell me you were expecting our kid?! I will take full responsibility, let's get married and take care of him together and–"

"Haru. That's literally just a plushie I sewed for you."

"Haha, I know!! I'm just joking, I'm just joking!! You ARE the other parent, though."

Needless to say, Haru absolutely loves it to death, and he WILL keep making jokes like that forever, even if you two are just friends and never even smooched.

He also takes it everywhere, but mostly because Peekaboo loved the plushie just as much as him and is convinced he is a big brother.

Like father, like son...

Peekaboo insists Haru puts the little plushie right beside him on his baby wrap, just the head peeking out so it can "breathe and watch everything" properly.

With all the hard work Haru does, the plushie also gets a bit dirty, but he cleans it thoroughly almost everyday! Can't have his youngest son dirty, right?

Haru lets Peekaboo keep it during the day, but during the night, he takes it to bed with him, on the rare occasions in which he sleeps for more than 3 hours

He loves cuddling his plushie son and might ask you someday to make more friends for it!

Of course, he does that by joking about how you two are ready to expand the family, and how he would like to have more kids. He's just a silly goofy guy like that.

[cinnbar-bun]

Would you be willing to write what kind of fan would ace, sabo, shanks, and law for the reader!! I loved your last one!!!

You got it dude! Sorry for taking so long.

Ace, Sabo, Law, and Shanks- Reversed AU HCs

AU: In which YOU are the character of a very famous franchise, and they are regular people who are fans of your series.

Note: GN!Reader, crack, very unserious, SFW

Part 1 with Straw Hats here!

Ace

Broke ass guy who can’t afford anything for you minus like, a bootleg or something small. Has buttons of you. 

Highkey think he would be a menace and just wear something so off with you on it (you are free to decide what that looks like). 

If people ask why he’s got you on his phone or like a keychain of you, he just beams and responds that you’re the love of his life and refuses to elaborate. 

Lies, he WILL be elaborating and making it everyone’s problem. 

Marco wants him to shut up about it. 

Thatch jokes around often and makes cakes of you for Ace on his birthday or something. Ace refuses to eat it for like two seconds before he’s quickly trying to fight off the others from taking a slice. 

Whitebeard has not realized you’re fictional and still asks about meeting you soon… he just wants to meet the one his son keeps raving about. 

Ace has to lie and it becomes a whole ‘my partner is in Canada, actually they can’t see you now.’ 

Whitebeard is so impressed with the fact you travel all over the world <3 wow, you must be so worldly! 

Sabo 

Rich boy who I don’t think would directly get merchandise of you, but he would totally buy things that have your signature color or remind him of you. Very subtle things. I could see him buying one expensive figure of you, but otherwise it’s just subtle things he will proudly wear in public. 

Doesn’t have much time for gaming, so I don’t think he would be playing the mobile gacha games but he will admire the artwork and units of you. 

This is actually a partial truth, he had them at one point but was sinking so much money into your units that Koala had to step in and get him to stop this addiction. 

He’s been doing his best okay… but your alt unit is so tempting he wants to GET IT HE NEEDS TO GET IT LET HIM ROLL ONE MORE ONE MORE ONE MORE- 

Sabo’s phone is now under parental controls and he needs Koala or Dragon’s permission to download or buy any in-app purchases. 

But he’s like, so normal about this, okay? He doesn’t have a problem.

Likes to eat your favorite snacks or food on your birthday as a sort of ‘celebration’ of you. Again, pretty subtle things like buying a dessert you like from that one bakery, or ordering a meal that you ate one time on the show. 

On second thought I could see him having special editions of the manga, but that remains in his office never to be borrowed by anyone. 

Law 

“Why the hell would I be into this?” 

Acts like he’s above watching cringe animes when he’s got better taste in his consumption of media like House MD or Scrubs or something. 

But you know, he’s always getting dragged into silly shit with his friends so everyone is forcing him to watch this popular anime with over 1000+ episodes. 

Law feels like performing surgery on himself with no anesthesia at the sheer number of episodes. 

It isn’t until like 400 episodes in when you’re introduced and everyone swears they can see the light in his eyes return and he’s entranced. 

Suddenly this is his favorite show, although he refuses to entertain that. 

He totally has a few figures of you, but when asked, he just yells that they’re Bepo’s and he’s keeping them safe. 

The others know he’s not going to buy merch so they just buy him silly trinkets of you and he tries to keep lowkey and hidden so no one knows about his love for you. 

He’s not the same man he was 400 episodes ago. He still can’t decide if that’s a good thing or a bad one. 

But you’ve invaded and latched yourself into his mind and damn it, he’ll keep you there. 

Shanks 

Cringe but free. 

Buggy got him into this show (Buggy made a slip up once and has tried to deny that he’s liked this series since) and Shanks casually watches a few episodes when he’s free. 

Has a couple of figures that a kid Uta always wants to play with (hell no, put that shit back!!!) 

Lies to Uta whenever she asks who this figure is of and he dramatically will hold the figure of you and tell her this is, in fact, who her other parent is. 

Great job, Shanks, you weirdo. Of course, Uta knows when she’s older that he’s lying out of his ass, but when she was younger she was deadset on meeting you. 

So Shanks was forced to include her in his watches so she can see her ‘other parent’. Shanks makes wild stories when Uta asks why you’re in the TV and says you’re so so cool they just had to make a tv show about you. 

He’s the kind of guy who forgets Uta is a kid and whenever something super violent or adult happens, he goes ‘oops’ after a few seconds and shoddily covers her eyes, to the point she can pretty much still see everything. 

So both of them kinda get in a feedback loop where when he gets something, she wants it, and when she wants to do something, he’ll do it when it comes to you. 

You are a staple in that household. Shanks isn’t the best at maintaining your figures but he does remember to dust you off once in a while (mostly after Uta screams at him to keep it in good condition). 

He’s tried to get into the card game (Uta insisted), but he finds the rules too hard and difficult, so him and Uta made an easier version (which he often lies about to be able to win). 

His luck is crappy too when it comes to the blind packs, so when Uta got the rare card of you he was practically gonna wrestle it out of her. 

He’s also weird and rich enough to get any crazy or out there merchandise of you if he felt like it.

[beanghostprincess]

Talking about Shuggy wedding I just… god I wonder how that would even look like if I’m gonna be honest. Like, no doubt it would be funny as fuck because bad luck follows Buggy like a shadow, but just…. The entire thing….

I like to use the headcanon of them being in their outfits from that Gacha game that I’ve seen around so often, but under which circumstances did they pick them? Did Buggy have to threaten his spouse to clean up a little for him or was Shanks smart enough to know Buggy would just flat out bolt again if he saw him in his regular getup? (Cute thought actually: Buggy being convinced Shanks will just go… casual business at most, but no, BAM! Shanks brought out the suit combo just because he knows Buggy will like it)

What the fuck would the ceremony even look like? Who’s officiating? The Luffy joke is funny of course but also I think Buggy would protest. Rayleigh? I know he was only second in command but like… they are pirates. Do you really think they care about shit like official papers? Especially since both of them are emperors now, who’s gonna step up to them and be like „Well acshually.“?

Who’s at the wedding like, PERIOD? Shanks seems way more to be the type of fella who just wants a good party with his crew and his Bug and the alcohol flowing, but Buggy likes a SPECTACLE, would there be canons and doves and wine flowing like water, or would the fact that he’s marrying SHANKS of all people, his lifelong adversary, the thorn in side, the most annoying man he’s ever known, the love of his life, embarrass him enough to make him want this to be a smaller event? How fucking ridiculous do the wedding presents from Buggys followers get?

Just… god what would that look like?

I'm certain their wedding would be the most chaotic and memorable thing ever. Yes, bad luck follows Buggy, but the same goes for Shanks with good luck. So it's kind of like, a mess with a happy ending, maybe???

I think Shanks would sooo pick the matching suits because Buggy would spend months complaining about how "Shanks can't dress" and letting him choose only one thing for the wedding would result in a nightmare. But Shanks surprises him with this and Buggy just can't say anything good about him out of pride, but Shanks knows he's more than happy.

OKAY SO- I don't know much about pirate weddings but what I do know is that Luffy being there would bother the shit out of Buggy and that'd be hilarious. I think the one who should marry them is Rayleigh for obvious reasons tbh it'd be both hilarious AND meaningful. Also, the one who'd step up saying "actually" would be Luffy 100% and Nami has to force him to sit down.

And tbh keep in mind they're both emperors and like a good party, it'd be HUGE. In a Buggy style but definitely partying the way Shanks likes. I get Buggy not wanting to show everyone he's getting married to Shanks of all people but Buggy focuses the party on him more than he does on the marriage itself (that's something they keep in private and Shanks is more than happy I think).

It'd look like the messiest most beautiful wedding ever btw

Chris Thorndyke (Sonic X) vs. Cyril (Fire Emblem)

Y'all Hate Kids: Screwed By The Writers

Propaganda below the cut

(edit: added the cut)

-

Chris Thorndyke (Sonic X)

Chris Thorndyke is THE hated kid in the Sonic fandom and for what??? The whimsy of being sonic's friend?????? Being neglected by his parents but not acting like the sad little neglected child in a gacha movie????? Because the dub writers made him a little more annoying???? For years if you searched the chris thorndyke tag it was NOTHING but vitriol and anger towards this child. His one crime was thinking Sonic was cool and the fandom sentenced him to death for it.

Cyril (Fire Emblem)

cw: Slavery, racism, grooming , Human trafficking, child soldiers, warfare, war orphans

"This boy. This POOR BOY. Would've submitted him to Yall Hate Teens if I could have, because BOY does the fandom rag on him. But thankfully, he applies to this one as well.

Jusr for some background. Okay so we got this 14 year old kid. Born in a (non-white) country with a lot of emphasis on fighting (which is iffy in its own sense too), and he ends up put in a battle at a young age. During this battle, he's captured by the soldiers of a noble family from the white people continent, and made into their ""servant"" (but let's be real, they aren't paying him.) Eventually, he's rescued by the pope, who is secretly a dragon, and he becomes very indebted to her because of this. He becomes almost fanatical in his respect for her, and that's where the main source of people disliking him in the fandom comes from. They think he's annoying. Or make really gross sexual jokes about him (14) and the 100 bajillion year old (that was hyperbole) dragon pope who arguably groomed him according to certain interpretations.

Anyway, for the things the writers did to him! Well, for one, a few of his supports are pretty bad. One particularly terrible one stands out-- his Hilda support. In which he's doing his job, working hard and stuff and she starts saying all these racist comments about how she didn't know that his people were capable of that. He's (rightfully) really rude to her for their first 2 supports, but eventually they have a slightly more friendly relationship. Their A is her bringing home a letter from her brother, telling her that racism is bad. That was what it took for her to realize that, by the way.

Okay, a little iffy, but guess what? You remember the noble family that he was ENSLAVED BY? YEAH. She is a member of that family. And in their paired ending? They get married. He marries the racist white woman who basically decided that he was one of the good ones. You want to know who he DOESN'T gave a paired ending with? Someone who can share his experience of growing up with a complex relationship with his culture. Or the guy who is curious about him and his life and helps to show him the beauty in the mundane, in a really very sweet support that tragically only goes up to B, wanting to go on a trip with him to see his homeland when everything is over. Or the ither person of color who feels questionably indebted to a powerful white person. Also his Byleth S support is really weird and creepy.

Oh, and he was completely cut out of the spin-off game. He was supposed to be playable in it, but they cut him out. You kill him in Scarlet Blaze (or maybe he doesn't die. I forget. You fight him.) And I think he sometimes shows up in other routes but that's it. He was done so dirty by the writers, the fandom, everyone. It's really fucked up."

-

I was fine with Cyril but a ton of people online SEVERELY hated my boy for just existing so I grew to love him out of spite. Cyril's backstory had him as a child soldier that was captured by the enemy nation where he became a servant to a noble family. Archbishop Rhea noticed Cyril and took him to Garreg Mach Monastery where he willingly works for her out of gratitude for giving him a home when he was at his worst. Because he's a kid (who's also far more mature than some of the older cast) Cyril was one of the few characters who was critical of the protagonist from the get go and I think this brought in the hate. Like- Cyril WAS a kidnapping victim but he's also mature enough to recognize that his home nation wasn't perfect and only encouraged a bloody culture that kept making orphans. Cyril technically doesn't need to work or stay at Garreg Mach but he does so because he feels that he owes Lady Rhea and the localization of FE16 smooths over a lot of that info. Like- leave my boy aloneee he's just living his own life instead of making the protagonist the center of his universe. He's a child soldier that has yet to really find his place in the world after finally being given the reigns of his own life. Cyril my son. Cyril my boy- you are more than all the hate. Be free my child

[mrstellmeafuckingsecret]

Hellooo how are you

Just out of curiosity and complete respect, why do you not like the fanon marauders?

hihi !! there's a lot of reasons tbh. here's a very very short tldr.

have you read, or heard of, the webtoon 'boyfriends'? if that webtoon was a massive fandom - it would be this one. the marauders fandom is fetish content, straight porn, has no personality. it's giving gacha life mini movie made in 2014. not joking. it's giving wattpad, it's giving y/n. wolfstar is bible and i am about to burn it.

sirius is a one-dimensional twink. he is stupid (if he's smart it HAS to be clarified he's still remus' bitch), overdramatic, a cry-baby, a sex slut, constantly bullied, short, and generally just number two. he's abused, sure, but it's nothing explored besides how it affects his relationship with remus.

i hate it. he's such such such an interesting character. i want to cry every time i think of him. he went through so much and he's reduced to something that can't even be called a caricature of him, but just a weird bitch. moreover, i literally cannot believe the ONLY thing that's the same is how much he suffers. literally every univgerse, bro can NOT catch a break. square up tt marauders fandom.

for remus ugh ugh ugh he turns into the one, 1, uno, i, thing he did not want to be. a werewolf. he is literally fenrir greyback. he's a sex-addicted, abusive, druggie!! he's fucking fight club!! he's mean and egoistical, that's not him. there is literally, literally, no reason to do this. he's reduced to your average bad boy, he has daddy issues. that's fucking pathetic, because the only reason it's thought necessary that he has them is because discrimination is invalid and parental abuse is the only thing the marauders fandom will take seriously. not when it is sirius, though, no because he's dumb and stupid and a cockslut.

and james? i cannot explain how much i despise jegulus. i cannot. i cant. james is a stupid himbo people pleaser with no self esteem . go the fuckk awayyyy im not even. im too tired to explain this.

and peter. i never rant about him. god. i hate his entire fanon character. he was left out, it's canon!! but he wasn't a loser!! he was well-liked, he was a marauder he was intelligent enough to become an animagus - in fanon it's all gone. he's so ............. side character. he doesnt have a personality. he's all the traits you kinda want your characters to have but it doesn't fit so you put them on peter instead. i just. i like him a lot. i hate how he's watered down by the fandom who claims that they 'love young peter'.

this is like a short ass response but uhh yeah. i tried to be nice but like the marauders fandom and fanon is. wow.

[mihai-florescu]

Reading your enstars instagram post and man. I am so sorry. I am glad you can still find comfort in the old stories, i know i do. (Atp enstars only exists in the internet archives to me lol). Like you said, not everything after !-era is bad but damn if it hasn't been getting steadily worse. Awful to see something you once loved and held dear morphing into something else entirely. Not gonna lie, i'm almost scared to keep up with any stories releasing after this considering how much they have already made it obvious that they don't care. I don't wanna see the story get butchered anymore than this.

Unfortuantely, they probably won't go eos until they've milked every last penny out of the franchise. By that point i think enstars will be unrecognizable compared to what it had been in the past.

My only hope is that i've seen people specualting that this event wasn't written by akira and if that's the case i do hope akira manages to fight back and get his story back.

Also hi this is cookie btw i just moved bc i can't look at my enstars blog for the mean time

Hii, ive actually been talking about this all day with various friends, some more some less involved in enstars... i think it's everyone's right to distance themselves from something that doesnt spark joy anymore and has let them down. I will focus my reads on mostly ! era stuff but until it shuts down i will keep an eye out on the releases. I cant imagine a world where enstars is still going and i dont at least know the overview of whats going on.

As youve been on twt too, im sure you mightve seen that some of the critiques people are bringing now just to jump on the Hating Everything Enstars are stupid. Im thinking about the buddhism and christianity tweet in particular coming from someone who genuinely seems like they havent read many stories lawl. Theres a difference between actual problems and personal dissatisfactions that things arent the way you want them to be for various personal reason. People should learn their singular experience isnt universal, and characters in a story dont aim to speak for a universal experience either. It's not bad writing for a hidden christian in japan to behave differently from a canadian one, or for eichi to joke around with his childhood friend who happens to be buddhist. Anyway. I will always defend the parts of enstars i think were genuinely good, even if im getting worse at expressing myself in speech.

Anyhow... i dont want to speculate on internal problems but i really do wonder how much of this current direction was akira's choice and how much was happyele. He is no longer one of the only 2 writers (and main one, at that), i wouldnt be surprised if he doesnt have as much influence anymore. We know that in the beginning of es2 he expressed concern that everyone in happyele is insane...lol. He's not a perfect writer but the soul of enstars was brought by him.

Well, as i said, i dont want to speculate anything. I wish to not see so much negativity even on things that dont deserve hate, but ive always had issues with other fans' uninformed reactions. That'll never change even as enstars self destructs more and more. I can hold contempt for both the company and such fans, while treasuring the meaningful parts of the story and its impact on my life going forward too♡ ah my dear story that shouldve been a niche vn with a cult following of few but passionate fans instead of a gacha game gone stale disappointing old fans in pursuit of new ones with gimmicky shock writing...

No joke when I first saw this design in a video with Natlan lore, I legitimately thought the video creator was using some random game to represent Natlan.

To say I’m surprised would be a lie considering how I saw this coming even before Sumeru came out; the moment I read in the wiki that Natlan was inspired from precolonial Latin American and some tribes in Africa, I stopped playing Genshin for around a year.

Often, the moment authors start meshing together countries and regions together, it starts to become… murky and harder to execute with proper acknowledgment to the sources of inspiration. Especially since the thing is… these are two continents oceans apart which did not have significant/apparent enough interaction between each other prior to colonialism.

As a mestizo (mixed) Latino, I cannot speak entirely for the various indigenous populations/groups represented within this one region, but the lack of care for skin tone and respect for the cultures it is based off—it’s sad. It’s depressing for me.

This company and many others are using less represented cultures as exotic and fun cosplay.

A fantasy costume party for their pale-skinned, idealized white characters—parading around names which erases real life deities from people’s immediate knowledge and now are replaced with some gacha-ass looking dude with barely a drop of melanin. Now when I search up Ororon, all I get is that dude, which is not fucking good since the name is of a Yoruba deity.

I want people to actually commit to not playing Genshin and other Hoyo games if they really care to boycott. I’ve been discovering the extent of how the other games are just as disgusting as Genshin; it’s not enough to just boycott one game, if you want to get your message across to a company, do it to all their products.

I’ve seen people say to do it, yet go on and still play.

Do it.

Fucking do it if you actually are enraged by the blatant racism in this game and in this fandom.

Those who are bystanders are just as culpable as the ones who perpetuate it.

I will now be changing all my socials if they involve Hoyoverse content; I will no longer interact with Hoyoverse content, whether that be fan-made or official, unless it is discussing this matter or redesigning characters whether that be from Natlan or Sumeru.

I know likely many others won’t do the same; it’s an interest, it’s many people’s favorite game, a comfort. And many people are comfortable—fine—with racism in their interests, as long as it can be sugarcoated and excused, y’know… “it’s not bad because there’s some white people there too in real life!” Yes! But it’s majority brown.

Especially before colonization happened.

[lieshe]

happy ( belated ) opening, everyone ! my name is norb & i bring you midas music's second female soloist, lena oh ! so excited to write with you all ♡ leave a like for me to hop into your ims / or discord if you prefer !!

background

brought up in a fairly standard asam family complete with a tiger mom ( who already had lena's entirely life planned out for her ) and a vaguely emotionally present father ( who can barely plan out what he wants for dinner )

allowed to practice the arts throughout her childhood insofar as it was a way for her mother to show her off to other people ( piano & choir ), but god forbid she try to pursue that as a career

resisted in minute ways, such as intentionally falling victim to senioritis ( oops, i got a 1 on the ap chem exam? guess that'll tank my chances of getting into a good pre-med program... ) and eventually entering college undeclared — of course with the express purpose of declaring for the arts once mom wasn't looking

fell victim to the extreme level of independence afforded her as a freshman living away from home, late nights out and generally slacking off on academics

a choice ( her joke, since she was browsing in the choice music store at the time ) visit to ktown introduced her to an open audition by midas music

passes and joins the company in early 2017, too late to be considered for haute pink — which is a relief b/c the competitiveness terrifies her

overall unused to the harsh training environment, which somehow winds up being an asset b/c it becomes very easy to crush her into submission

part of it is the sunk-cost fallacy, not wanting to prove her mom right that a career in the arts is not for her and/or that she screwed up by making such a monumental decision at such a young age ( and suckering her dad into enabling her )

ultimately winds up debuting as a soloist with a two-fold purpose — as a counterpart to her predecessor, the nation's goddess, and to push midas further into the west's pockets by following haute pink's example

her western push was halted by claims from former classmates ( with yearbook photos as proof ) stating some not so true things about copying homework and stealing boyfriends, the former of which called her admission to ucla into question. which then led to some dorm mates ( whom she only lived with from september to february ) saying some kinda true things — but leaving out the part where they drank all her milk and that's why she snapped at them.

will reluctantly admit these days that she feels she has a nothingburger of a career — her music is successful and popular b/c it's easy to listen to, her appearances on variety are less to express her opinion on things but to lure people in with her quirky personality. she posts daily and is known to be one of the more terminally online idols, but after half a decade as an artist, she expected to do more with her life

sense of self or identity? who's that, lena sure as hell doesn't know lol. ( and her fans are starting to realize that )

is at a teensy bit of a crossroads now. part of being a soloist means being seen as a little more authentic than an idol beholden to group dynamics and image, but people are slowly waking up to her insincerity. knows she has to lean in one direction or the other -- but having to figure out a personality is scary ( and something she probably should've figured out in her formative years, which she unfortunately spent training )

tl;dr / headcanons / misc.

soloist who 'stars, they're just like us!'-ed too close to the sun and now has no idea who she is as a human being <3

some miscellaneous items to get her vibe!

has a reputation for being a gamer, but although she enjoys roguelikes and rpgs, alongside playing the latest multiplayer fps ( healbot for life b/c she's too much of a coward to play dps ), her true passion is grandma video games ( aka hidden object puzzle adventure games ).

also buried deep in gacha game hell but like don't tell anyone b/c then they'd ask her how much she spends and she'd have to tell them she single-handedly funds onychinus

has a secret letterboxd only a select few are privy to. she really liked the brutalist until all that ai stuff came out about it

smooches every one of her plushies on the head before bed and sometimes swaps them around so that they each get an equal amount of time sleeping next to her

biiiiig podcast listener. and every time robert evans makes something up on behind the bastards, she falls for it hook, line, and sinker

majored in musical theater for all of about 3 months before she dropped out. has considered going back to school in korea but is hesitant to add onto her career responsibilities

an only child b/c her parents were like 'we can only afford one' and stuck to it no matter how much she begged

wcs

you get the feeling she's copying you/your vibe, which you're sure is supposed to be flattering but is just plain off-putting. like the miles and peter b. meme except if miles was a grown man of roughly the same age.

a relationship she ended rather abruptly. maybe it was because she wasn't supposed to be dating yet, or she felt a disturbance in the force ( someone was getting too close to the truth ), or she realized that you were about to find out that she's barely a person. whatever the case, she still finds it hard to be around you.

being the #1 grey's anatomy super-fan she is, she's claimed you as her 'person'. you're pretty sure that's just a fancy way of saying 'best friend.' but if that's the case, why is your so-called best friend pulling away from you all of a sudden ?

you think most of her discography is bland and boring and are thoroughly confused when she seems almost pleased by the insult.

far be it for you to question how one spends their time, but the way she spits out pop culture references seems almost like she watches stuff for homework rather than any kind of pleasure.

someone who's glad to have finally met a yapper of equal caliber. people who watch the two of you converse feel like they're witnessing it in 2x speed.

it was her idea to start a book club, but she seems to run it a bit like a drill sergeant ( and won't stop grumbling about how much she hates fourth wing )

she's struck, on occasion, by how the world seems to turn without her back home. perhaps you stumbled on a moment of vulnerability, or you two were already kind of friends. but you're the only person she can confide in about this, and in return, she lends you her ear.

Ima rant about the Minecraft movie cuz I’m bored

First off, I never liked the idea in the first place. I saw it was going to happen and knew immediately it wouldn’t be great. You can’t please the whole fandom. Everyone wants different things, especially with a “story less” game. (MC story mode Ik and the whole ender dragon I know but whatever besides the point)

Then the trailer comes out.

THAT PIECE OF SHIT-

I laughed through it. And not in “haha funny joke” no in “holy shit this is bad” the fucking borderlands trailer was better then this. That movie flopped so hard too.

First off, why is it live action? Animate it.

And if you INSIST on doing live action, at least fucking try. Worst green screen ever. Looked like a green screen kid on YouTube that filmed in his room wiht his brightness up at 11 pm.

Secondly, the outfits are sooo bad. I know Minecraft skins are supposed to be like a free representation or something but WHAT THE FUCK? That just looked horrible. I don’t even have a comparison. Besides didn’t they do the whole “wake up in a video game”? Who the hell wears that in real life, BE HONEST. I’m not one for outfit shaming or anything but seriously.

Adding to that, you ddint even make Steve recognizable. You had to make him SAY HES STEVE. I like Jack Black and all, but wrong choice.

Third. The plot.

They really went for the whole “wake up in a video game” trope. It’s literally jumangi. Again. I don’t even have to say more. There’s no coherent plot at all anyway! What’s the goal! What’s happening that makes this difficult?? WHATS THE HOOK? I could write a better Gacha story than that.

Fourth. The hell was that scenery. Didn’t look like Minecraft. At least try, okay?

And we aren’t discussing the sheep. That was.. bad.

Overall it just looked so unprofessional, like some teens all decided to make a Minecraft movie but worse than that.

And the obligatory apology to Minecraft story mode… I’m sorry for calling you dry and unpredictable, and your better then this. still don’t like the game tho-

I’m done. Might add to this. Idk.

What's your thoughts on r1999 currently, may I ask? c:

NEVER PUT THEM TOGETHER IN A CAR

Thank you for asking, time to ramble (It's so sad I have no mischievous emoji)

To be fair, I joined Reverse 1999 around 1.4, so I'm not from the start of the game. And it's also my very first Gacha game ever so, I hold it dearly.

Reverse 1999 has such a story that, despite being complicated, it drives you in and never stops getting better and better. The element of drama always leaves you wanting more (THAT CLIFFHANGER IN CHAPTER 5 WAS SO UNFAIR) and the characters are so well fleshed out that even the NPCs are lovable. You can see why some characters do what they do, why they do it and also see them maturing as the story goes on.

Vertin is also why this game is my favorite, she's a strong main character who is strong on her own, but is stronger with company. She's exactly what I imagine a strong MC to be, I've seen enough stories and some MCs are not as memorable as others, but the story wouldn't be the same without Vertin. And she's funny! Her dumb silly jokes are such a contrast to her calm and collected demeanor, you can see how she's so silly while being serious.

And the events work to expand the world, to explain more corners of this place you're seeing from other people's perspective, that could be 1.1, the life before the story, 1.8 and how the storm is a real menace and not something you can dismiss. It explores so many characters in such a way that, you might not like them, but they're made in such a way that you have to admit they're unique.

And talking about the storm, it's such a complicated thing that even you, the player, can't seem to figure it out. Every time you know more about the storm, more questions pop up. You're just like the characters, unable to know how to stop the storm. It's something that makes you enjoy the experience because you're not omnipresent or stronger, you're just someone seeing the story through Vertin's eyes, and Vertin is just a little guy, not some goddess or the key to everything (though she might be very helpful to stop the storm)

And they really know how to make a good relationship with the characters. The characters that are obviously shipped together have majestic chemistry (Vila and Windsong are my favorite example, they're not doomed but in the beginning you can tell they're going to get together at some point). And somehow, they manage to make them so unique it's like "Yo what the hell???", You get a Centaur and a 80's horror movie girl, a siren and some pathetic badass girl, this huge nerd and her childhood friend, and so on! They're so fun to describe together.

I think Reverse 1999 is a depressive game superficially but once you drive deeper, it has so many things to say and touches so many subjects in a way that is so easy to digest but also to understand. They put so much love and effort into the game and you can feel it, their characters and the story, the extra content and so much more.

I'm always on the lookout for a good game and I've found it! It's not a perfect game, that's for sure, but it's so easy to love and, at least to me, it will never get boring.

I might have said too much nothing 😓, I get excited when someone asks me about this game that I end up missing the point of the question jeje. Thank you for asking!

Welcome to Five Nights of Stupidity!

We're an all-inclusive Fnaf blog! We do pretty much everything :P

Requests, Fanart, Random fnaf rants, and yk, other fnaf stuff

Eclipse (retired. Dead. SIX FEET UNDER.), Springtrap, and Fredbear ran this account during the "Legacy" Era

In the "Revival" era, Glitchtrap, formerly Mod Springtrap, runs this account as the host! Adventure Nightmare Fredbear, Vanny, Ballora, and Circus Baby are also mods that run this account alongside Glitchtrap.

More mods will be added soon though!

Adventure Nightmare Fredbear can do moodbards and is our personal notif system.

Circus Baby is around here doing some fashion showcases and can do some requests if she wants to! We highly suggest you check her intro page.

Ballora does some things like small fanfiction and design advice! She basically runs the "Gacha fancreation" section of the blog.

Vanny is the official successor of Mod Eclipse, and can stimboards! They really DO love making stimboards.

This list changes frequently :>

Stuff that takes longer - ✨

RULES! - Please read before sending anything!

When requesting something like a moodboard, be somewhat specific. (Character/Ship/Etc + Aesthetic is the usual)

if you don't have specifics, that's fine! But we do need a main topic.

Don't be rude... Please.

This is a FNAF themed blog. We do FNAF things. Don't ask for something from a different fandom.

If you want a specific mod to see your ask, "@" them.

We probably won't draw anything for you, but feel free to ask anyway.

Ask beforehand if you're requesting something from Non-Canon Material. (AUs, web series, etc.) TSAMS is blacklisted for Eclipse's comfort.

As of the "Revival era" of this blog, TSAMS is still blocked due to Springtrap not knowing much about it, and wishes to not interact with the TSAMS, or any other "FNaF character and character show" community.

DNI! - Violators will be blocked!

Standard DNI criteria (homophobes, transphobes, racists, sexists, etc)

Anti-Alterhuman

Anti-Furry

FNAF Haters (why are you here /genq)

NSFW Blogs and such.

Anti endo (Mod Springtrap is a mixed origin system.)

Literally just anti system in general

+ Will probably add more

Mod Specialties!

While each mod has specifics on what we will and will not do, we do appreciate it if you request for a Mod's specialty, which is what the mod excels in the most!

Specific mods excel in specific things better than other mods.

Vanny - Stimboards

Glitchtrap - Music (Recommendations or Playlists)

Circus Baby - Fashion

Adventure Nightmare Fredbear - Moodboards

Ballora - Fanfics

Istg if this resets while I’m writing ONE MORE TIME

Did you know there are gacha The Outsiders reaction videos

Anyways inspired by that 4th Curtis sibling au and Johnny has a sister aus, may I raise you: triplet Curtis brothers. Darry, Sodapop, and Ponyboy are all the same age though a good majority of their interests stay the same.

Darry still doesn’t connect with Ponyboy but it’s mostly because he has the most stress on his shoulders (first born, first to be put into sports, basically everything about him but he learnt it earlier in his life). Sodapop still feels like the middle man, he constantly makes little brother and height jokes at Ponyboy and is more prone to goofing off and being childish. Ponyboy’s the youngest still and he’s just an absolute nerd; constantly reading books and always at the library.

They’re all not sure who they want to be. As young kids, they were only as much as the other. They always had matching outfits, matching hairstyles, matching everything. Three peas put in the same pot. And when they gained individual interests they weren’t sure if they wanted to pursue them because they constantly get jokes about how that’ll make them nothing like the other, or they’re too similar and need to do original things. They love each other, obviously, but being twins is hard, let alone being triplets. They don’t know who they are, and they’re unsure if they ever really want to.

Of course, for this au to work we’d need to age up or age down characters (quick side note: maybe the gang’s ages change depending on the Curtis’s, I dunno). I’d say they would be around 15-17. But with that, a big part of the lore is difficult: their parents death, since a 15-17 year old cannot own a house. So maybe they’re being fostered by people who still live in the area, meaning they still become and stay friends with the gang. Or maybe the Curtis parents don’t die. Who knows! I just needed to get this out and wasn’t sure if I wanted it on my account cause it feels… cringy to me?

.
