Man, it's cool and all if you see a metaphor for marginalisation in the monstrous, and if you want the power fantasy of 'what if you could just eat anybody who threatened you/pissed you off'. Me too.
However, as soon as you start saying 'no, these monsters are a 1:1 on Specific Marginalised Group, and you have to treat them in the fiction like they are directly representative of real human members of the marginalised group', BUT you also, in the fiction, make them hurt/kill/eat humans? And then try to shame me, your audience, for noticing or engaging with the bit where they kill people, because you made them directly representative of a real-world marginalised group? You have lost me, and also, I think, the plot.
#hear yourself. for the love of whatever you cherish.#'but they only kill bigots so ACTUALLY they're the GOOD GUYS -' your metaphor of monstrosity is entirely premised on the question of#'what if what you went around righteously killing; believing your actions to be justified;#were actually people and it was not in fact righteous or justified to just kill them'#'what if the world isn't neatly split into 'good guys' and 'bad guys'#who gets to decide who or what is 'bad'? because that's the original problem of monstrosity-as-metaphor-for-marginalisation#(if as a creator you say 'oh my intention with this was X' cool!#if instead you go with something like. well.#'well in this setting monsters are so rare it doesn't matter that they kill people and you'd have to be a homicidal sadistic psychopath >#< to hunt them; but sure I guess if you want to play a Bad Person' well I might have#but if you're going to explicitly judge me for wanting to engage with the moral question of 'how justified is this and who would do it#versus how justified are these monsters if they do have to harm or kill people to continue to exist'#then maybe I just don't want to play your game at all)#anyway I'm sick to death of poor uwu cozy vampires who are SO marginalised so I'm not Allowed to care about all the people they murder#it being fucked up is what's fun about it! do all the other shit but let me take the murders seriously!#and inb4 someone accuses me of being a bigot for saying 'actually I don't think you get a free pass to kill and eat people if you're gay'#remember when the CW's famously reactionary and conservative Supernatural tried to just gloss over the part where every time its heroes >#< killed a demon with a magic knife it also killed the person the demon was possessing#and say 'oh no it's fine we don't care about those killings; they don't matter; don't bother caring about them either'#but they were doing it to glorify exactly the kind of people that these 'monster as metaphor' stories are trying to cast as expendable?#I have other examples that are like. real dramas. but That Paranormal Show is the one that's in the same niche that I'm talking about here#it feels more insidious when it comes through a fantasy show where there are monsters involved#so you can say 'no it's not real so it doesn't matter'#but then ALL of it is equally not real. and vampires are not actually an oppressed group. because they don't exist.#you can say 'these vampires are a metaphor for an oppressed group so this fiction matters in real life'#or you can say 'don't care about the murders because they weren't actually real'#but you can't say both and then get mad at ME for treating the murders as seriously as the vampires#let me engage with your premise and don't waste my fucking time#or just set your fluff in the Sesame Street universe where vampires drink cherry Kool-Aid and help kids learn to count

every time someone strips CA arc Gon to ' he is blinded by rage, let's forget his established character, it's gone! His existence is just the 'this boy is a monster' foreshadowings! His entire personality is revenge, he doesn't care about anything else!' I grow so sad.

can I write a fic on this?
It鈥檚 such a lost opportunity that Percy never got to meet Neptune. Like actual eldritch horror Neptune who has no attachment to Percy or desire to look human. Neptune who hasn鈥檛 been seen in 500 years. Neptune who is the manifestation of every fear you鈥檝e ever had about the ocean. And he understands why the Romans don鈥檛 honor him.
I just think that would be neat.

I know this might seem like a wild crossover, but so far as I'm concerned it makes perfect sense. >:D

You said earlier that you don't have access to multiverses anymore, if you aren't in one right now, where are you instead?
Tumblr media
A lesson is in order
Extra info:
Universes: AUs, non-AUs, and cores
AUs: Alternate universes, born from creators. They contain their own timelines* as well as their voids*.
Timelines: Diverging paths of events in a given AU (eg. Pacifist, neutral, genocide runs; continuity changes such as Horrotale or Dusttale) these can be manipulated within a given AU by a being with powerful enough DT.
Void: The empty space within an AU, once entered leaving is nigh impossible (eg. Gaster; Color!Sans; Seraphim!Sans.)
Non-AUs: Outcode spaces, created by outcodes, either through code manipulation or overtaking of an already existing AU.
Membranes: That which seperates universes and multiverses from antivoid*, membranes can be passed through by certain individuals or with tools. (eg. Guardians; Errors; outcodes; //categories only applicable within Multiverses//.)
Cores: Root universe, from which all AUs stem from or passageway for guardians of creativity (Doodle spheres) depending on the Multiverse
Antivoid: The empty space between universes. Hostile to all incodes and most outcodes. Has effects on beings code that can lead to them becoming errors.
Antivoid (Multiversal scale): The full space between multiverses, hostile to all beings.

Oughghhh I couldn't get Guard Yuno out of my head since reading @amugoffandoms 's Mortuus ES, Ergo Ego Mortuus Sum -- it conveys such an awesome perspective on Yuno, Es, and us as the audience....
I wasn't entirely sure what to do with the background, so I went with the voting screen since that part of the fic had me 馃憗馃憗 (+ a quick undercover edit just for fun!) Have some badass Yuno to cover up sounds of me crying in the background 馃槀

I wanna get into Ultrakill so badly but everytime I watch a gameplay of it, there's like a million things happening at once. My poor, slow brain just sits there staring at the screen going huh. What. What the fuck just happened. What.

The OIAR is literally just middle management between eldritch creatures like they're the morally grey clipboard people standing behind the monster and telling it who to maul

Look, I just think it's VERY funny and on brand that I thought of an entire premise of colorful characters for half the cast and immediately drew the only one void of color.
#my characters#i will not bore you all too much in the main post but now its story time in the tags so yeefuckinghaw#noll is a fae and is distinctly the only one that just lacks colors#at first he was like well surely i can wear colorful stuff to make up for my dark hair and eyes !#and then he overhears some of the fae talking about how hes a blemish to the fae and hes like well fuck#guess its time to go all in baby! and decks himself out in all black and jagged clothing#and he tries to play it off as hes an idiot and a lot of the fae actually believe its not ALL an act#like they can tell he thinks about stuff but he normally does it staring into space so they dont care to ask#cause surely it isnt important enough to brood about hes just thinking about stuff#and he really REALLY has a lot of confidence issues and worries that more fae are disturbed by his darkness than let on#but then the other fae that like to hang out with him are like#YOOOOOO THATS OUR LIL VOID! THATS OUR LIL GUY! our lil black spot look at him hes so edgy and cute!#and treat him like a pet cat at times giving him head pats even if he bats their hands away#and the plot premise is that some of the fae are bored and decide they should go play with some humans! give THEM enrichment too!#and noll gets roped into it and The Game is basically go find a human partner and convince them to be an ally#then the fae give the humans cool lil toys (weapons) and are like GO FORTH MY CHAMPION!#so noll keeps like ... not picking anyone to participate because its not just A Game to him#if he can prove victorious in A Game with outside factors such as humans then he can prove hes not#an absolute disappointment to the fae like he has a lot riding on this in his mind#and his friends are just like buddy you cant even play if you dont pick a human you gotta#anyway here is noll and then i have ideas for two other fae and also a veeeery vague idea for two of the humans though not as sure yet#rae if you read all this you should know the cobalt is a fae thanks bye#i am so stressed posting ocs every single time and i am incredibly depressed and anxious#so good lord please let me not just delete all the tags in an hour bc im ashamed

genin tobiizu who aren't on the same genin team and are soooo normal about it. they just spent the past like 5 years competing like crazy in school and suddenly they never see each other? they're handling that Great, thanks for asking.
madara ends up tobirama's jonin-sensei and intentionally doing a shit job. sorry hashirama he knows this is your beloved little brother but hes annoying as hell and he bullied izuna for the past five years, madara is going to make him a genin forever or make him quit and become a civilian. he's not going to let him die but like, low bar.
