tier list that nobody asked for
listen, some of these moments from season 2 live in my head rent free, might as well use them to build a tier list. (if i didn't play the season, which is half of s4, seasons 5 and 6, i'm talking about appearance and looks)
these are the tiers and explanations. normally i wouldn't even put it into context but some of these are... cut deep.
day 10 sex with your LI in the hideaway: we waited and it DID NOT disappoint. whether personality, storyline or looks, or a combination of those, it did not leave us hanging dry.
rahim solving the rubik's cube: SO OVERLOOKED by the fandom (or myself in some cases) and i want more. that's it, that's the tier.
bobby singing during brunch: just like the singing, these people can be endearing but sometimes they're just not for you. you either swear by them or doesn't give a flying fuck.
hope crying and collapsin' on noah: CRINGE, i'm honestly ignoring they ever happened but they insist like a fucking tooth ache or something.
lottie biting noah's ear: "i worship and install chaos for the fun of it". all of these are giving new york telling a random girl to choke on flavor of love JUST BECAUSE.
returning!hannah "i'm a bad girl now.": the tease is badass but the attitude is fucking annoying and insecure. fuck these girls i don't care.
lurik leaving with rocco: they deserved WAY MORE than what was given, because what was given was fucking nothing. they didn't have the time or the personality, and i grieve for these men.
mc and li having sex during nope's argument: just like mc and her li, these people could not give a shit about anything, if the villa explodes or not, they're there to vibe and unapologetically be themselves. they might be the ones lighting the match but... still.
gary talking about a chance with hannah: IT'S GIVING RED NOSE, IT'S GIVING COLORFUL HAIR, IT'S GIVING BIG SHOES. actually you're not even the clown, just the horn. SHUT THE FUCK UP.
the shirt that never was: ah, all the suffering and expectation, just to get to the end and... we were so naive, so innocent, so wide-eyed, gullible, so... hopeful. ((the ones we got at the end? yeah, the payoff was not proportional to the waiting, argue with the wall)).
lottie offering to read tea leaves: I - DON'T - CARE, I REFUSE TO SPEND GEMS OR EVEN LOOK AT MY SCREEN WHILE I VIGOROUSLY TAP THROUGH IT.
chelsea talking about the* other villa: i... we could've done without this. it just... didn't need to exist. it's not even entertaining, just plain weird and misplaced, and i lowkey hate it. fuck all these designs to be honest. and as for the twin... fuck the twin.

why is achilles the only demigod who's Like That? like he's my boy but u don't see memnon or aeneas or sarpedon acting like him on the reg. why is he so maladjusted? like specifically? I saw his mother once and was so terrified by the sight of a goddess I flung myself to the ground and hid my face in the dirt til she left but I still don't think that accounts for it idk

I was the one who wrote the achilles/agamemnon 100k slowburn enemies to lovers rpf and put it on the group chat but now patroclus is calling me 'agachilles boy' and laughing about it and asking if I can proofread his mock bardic epic where all his dogs are heroes and killing people, so I fear I've made a mistake. I also can't look achilles in the eye anymore... but honestly I've never seen proof he can read so I might be safe

Hi <3 I'm here with my request for TGC/actress!reader! No pressure if you don't like this or feel that you have to write it but what about if the shows out and people are going feral over their insane chemistry on screen and in interviews. But it gets worse when a pic of them kissing in costume on set is leaked and people are torn over if its a deleted scene or not (you can decide haha). And TGC and reader being fluffy and hounded to answer? Tysm if you decide to write this, no worries if not :)
Deleted Scene
Tom Glynn-Carney x Actress!Reader
Summary: "No, but truly, I am disappointed they didn't keep it," Tom mutters rather seriously, "I totally agree that our characters kissing is 100% vital character development."
Word Count: >600
Warnings: fem!reader, interview shenanigans, whipped!both of them, fluff, typos, etc.
A/N: T_T ive been having a hard time finishing my reqs so i do hope yall like em. i think its best for everyone that i keep em short cos i will lose my mind 🤪 i dont wanna give up on them so i hope you enjoy nonnie <3 Tagging: @pinksirensong @aralezinspace @deniixlovezelda @targaryenmoony @risefallrise @sloanexx @antisociablewallflower
Tom is sat on a chair on stage as he looks out to the crowd of eager fans, fans eager for answers about a particular clip that has been blazing about online. He breaks into a laugh when he hears the question regarding his lovely costar. He rubs the sides of face and chuckles into the mic, "next question please."
The crowd laughs.
Tom rubs his face and looks away as he clutches his torso. He releases a sigh then turns back to the guy who asked the question, "see... maybe I could answer that question easier if the person that question is about was here."
The crowd cheers.
Tom laughs, pulling his mic away, "I dunno, it's- it's quite awkward to... talk about your coworkers in certain ways, cause, you know, you don't want to put words in their mouth but--" he takes a moment before responding, "I would like to think," he places a hand on his chest, "that as much I as I enjoyed that kiss-"
Intense screaming.
"-she also did," he grits his teeth as he makes an apprehensive look. He breaks into a chuckle at how loud the shouts become.
Someone in the crowd screams out your ship name with Aegon.
"That being said, I do think it's a shame our kissing scene was cut out of the show-"
MEGA intense screaming.
Tom pulls his mic away and laughs through it. His jaw drops at the scream of a particularly enthusiastic fan. He points to that fan's general direction and chuckles as he says, "you get it."
"Can I just say," the fan who had asked Tom about the kissing scene in the first place speaks up. Tom looks at him as he explains that you were here at this convention two days ago and he got to ask you the same questions and-- "she said that she thought it was an integral piece of character development--"
Tom makes a face and nods.
"--and that because they cut it out, you should definitely make up for it with more kissing scenes."
The crowd loses their mind as Tom throws his head back then laughs into his hands. His face begins to turn a bright shade of red as he grins from ear to ear and his shoulders shake.
The fan holding the mic looks out to the crowd, "you can quote me on that, I'm sure there are clips online as evidence."
Tom wipes his face as he bites his lower lip.
He turns back to Tom, "do you have a response for her and everyone that ships your characters together?"
Tom blows a raspberry as he brings the mic to his mouth. With his cheeks still pink and his fingers ripping at his collar, he responds, "I'd love to kiss her."
Total and complete chaos amongst the people.
"FOR PLOT REASONS!" Tom calls out with an open mouthed smile. He shakes a hand out to the crowd as they bust their lungs with the intensity of their shouts.
He makes a cheeky expression, muttering lowly, "or maybe not--" he pulls his head back as he shakes it.
"No, but truly, I am disappointed they didn't keep it," Tom mutters rather seriously, "I totally agree that our characters kissing is 100% vital character development."

Now I'm curious cause of your tag. What did Swedish media say about the eurovision thing?
Oof yeah, here's a post detailing it ... here another... Basically they've absolutely flipped over the fact that Finnish public didn't give Loreen points at all (which I find absolutely hilarious) and suddenly started wielding such rhetoric as "the former eastern part of our kingdom" referring to Finland, which is???? like??? do I even need to say how Not Okay that is?
It might seem to some that the Finnish people are reacting to Sweden's (unfair) win and them being sore winners (which, points to them, I didn't know was possible!) with too much drama, but it's all tied to our history together. Finland has traditionally seen itself, and has been seen by other countries (Sweden included) as the sort of "little brother" to the more advanced, better-faring, glorious Sweden. While Sweden to my knowledge doesn't much care about what Finland gets up to (perhaps overlooking/ignoring us and our merits), Finland is always comparing itself to Sweden and trying to live up to it. It's a very common rhetoric and sort of, the atmosphere over here. We know more about Sweden than Sweden knows about us; we're constantly conscious that Sweden exists. Sweden gets talked about in international news; Finland, if mentioned, is often tied to - you guessed it - being Sweden's neighboring country.
We used to be part of Sweden for 600 years. During that time, Swedish was implemented as the language of the culture and the "civilised" whereas the finns living in the eAstErn pArT oF tHe kiNgDoM were seen as "wild" and "uncivilised" and just, generally a lesser people to the Swedish speaking population. We haven't been under Sweden's rule for some 200 years and STILL we can't seem to shake their influence on us. Swedish is still a mandatory language to learn at school (and I have many opinions on that, but that'd be another post). Finnish as a language has been disregarded for its whole existence. Our leading national thinkers and poets in the 19th century, who were the first ones to really push for the Finnish identity instead of us seeing ourselves as part of Sweden or Russia, wrote in Swedish. The first novel in Finnish was published in 1870.
So this is monumental to us, to have the whole word watching Finland and not Sweden. Finland has a lot of merits, especially considering how small a people we are (just 5,5mil). To have a song in our language, in Finnish be this popular, is something we couldn't have imagined. We as a people are humble to the extreme, so much that we might easily scorn anyone who is too successful (not a good thing!), and this is the first time in my life that I'm seeing the whole country rally behind someone like this. When we say "Our Jere" we mean it with our whole hearts. We're so so proud of him, everyone is, and for once Finnish people seem to think in unison that someone deserves all the praise and the success.
SO, to have Sweden in this UNIQUE moment of Finland raising its head and being "we're so amazing", with the rest of Europe going "yes you're so amazing!!", spew rhetoric like this, is just, unbelievable to me. Like I can't just believe that in the 21st century there are people in Sweden who hold up 200 year old thought patterns of our country. It's been shocking 'cos though there's always been rivalry, it's felt more... tongue in cheek. We "love to hate" Sweden over here. It's been "I hate Sweden (affectionate)". But now we find this unbelievably condescending and belittling attitude towards us raising its head, and we wonder, we thought we two were okay?? But have they always held these beliefs???
So there's a sense of betrayal in the air as well. And just, full on disbelief. And maybe we're starting to see that it has been like this all along, but we've decided to turn a blind eye to it? True colours shining through? Perhaps not... but yeah.
Sweden not looking good here!
(here's one more post that says the same that i did but was better at making it SHORT oops)
#eurovision#finland#sweden#käärijä#loreen#look i have nothing against loreen or individual swedish people#i don't believe most swedes would think like this!#still to have something like this in a piece of media over there is... wild#and somewhat telling?#welp#bit of a long answer but there's more to this mess than just what's happening now#it's 800 years of shared history that we understand without it needing to be said#at least i think so!#if anyone has anything to add/discuss please go ahead!#anonymous#answered#the finnish people have a forever inferior complex when it comes to sweden and now the one time the world actually sees us sweden's like#'such dumb people :( we won look at our trophy. stop celebrating the circus act'#they're just jealous we have the crazy we have the party#:) <3 i wrote this cos i'm hiding from work heheh#esc23#suomi

Head cannons that I may or may not have (Pikmin 4 Ones)
Dumbest ideas ever here we go (Long post btw, using the read more so it's not too long for people just scroll tags)
Just to get the relationship head cannons out of the way, Dingo is homies with Bernard, Yonny and Russ are evil besties, and Shepherd and Collin are friends, anyway time for some unhinged head cannons
Collin drinks coffee right as it's done, even if it's boiling hot just because he doesn't have the time to wait for it to cool down. His taste buds hate him for this
Russ has set off the fire alarm on the S.S. Shepherd at least 8 times during the Rescue Corps Mission on PNF-404, mostly on accident
Bernard sucks balls at cooking and is banned from the small kitchen on the S.S. Shepherd. Idk why I feel this one, but man's has 100% burnt the water
Oatchi has ate money before, how much? Up to you to decide
Dingo doesn't understand the concept of knocking 80% of the time
Yonny reads smut in public without batting an eye. I'm not elaborating more on this one, he just does
Bernard has a playlist of over 600 songs just for when he's driving, which ranges from hard rock to vocaloid
Shepherd was an adventurous child, and climbed out of her window to get out of the house when she was grounded for fun
Bernard may or may not have accidentally gotten Dingo into vocaloid, and Dingo can never live this down
Sometimes, Collin just makes rice and an egg and calls it a "good meal."
Shepherd forces Collin to eat sometimes
Shepherd often goes to dog shelters and has to physically restraint herself from adopting every single dog there
Oatchi has tried to eat Shepherd's hand on several occasions, and has failed every single time
Dingo is really good at most sports, except for dodge ball because of that one rule where if the person catches the ball your out. Dingo hates that rule with a burning passion
Bernard says "oopsie doopsie" and "lol" out loud, unironically, all the time
Yonny has once tried to add a robot leg to Oatchi. Shepherd did not find this as fascinating as he did, unfortunately
Russ is Yonny's second victim when it comes to consuming his concoctions, but he's way more willing to do than Dingo and will sometimes give the concoction a review like he's at a five star restaurant.
Russ has electrocuted himself at least 18 times before, and he's also electrocuted Yonny twice
Collin has had to drag Yonny away from Dingo to stop the doctor from experimenting on the poor ranger
And finally (For now, If I think of more, I'll add more), despite everyone's differences, everyone on the crew is very protective of each other. You mess with one person, you mess with all six of them. (Technically all seven of them if you count Oatchi)
#pikmin 4#pikmin#head cannons#they're a bit dumb#but hey#it's funni sometimes#It's long just letting you know#my brain go brrrrr#oatchi#rescue corps pikmin#shepherd pikmin#erma shepherd#collin#collin pikmin#russ#russ pikmin#dingo#dingo pikmin#yonny#yonny pikmin#bernard#bernard pikmin#hc

Seo Changbin: Wednesday < | > Lee Felix: Monday
****
Seo Changbin: Thursday
The school held a memorial for Changbin and Sohee. You sat in the assembly hall where everyone wept over their dead classmate. People got up to the podium to say kind words about him, while teachers praised his athletic achievements.
Everyone swallowed the story of Mrs. Yoon loses her sanity and attacks Changbin, her main victim. Rumors and theories spread throughout the school overnight, with Kim Seungmin at the head of it all. Even in the assembly, he was muttering to his lackeys about possible angles they could write about. Mentions of her haggard appearance didn’t raise many eyebrows, since they assumed this was from her manic depression and not torture. You’d gotten away with another murder, and it stoked your ego a bit.
Chan sat quiet and stoic as the assembly ended. He hadn’t spoken much since you met him outside the school garden. When you’d seen his sad face and puffy eyes, you decided you’d wait for him to speak. Your own heart ached the same way, but not for Changbin. You watched Chan slowly slip into quietness, not meeting anyone’s eyes and deep in his thoughts. His pain became yours, and you’d do anything to make him feel better. The two of you left the assembly together for the canteen area. You’d offered to buy him his favorite breakfast in the hope it’d brighten his eyes, but you only received a mumbled ‘sure’. You heard feet stomping behind you, and you turned to see Him.
“Hyung,” Felix breathed, jogging up right next to him, “Chan-hyung.”
“Hey Felix,” he said in a low voice.
“Hanging in there?” He asked, “I know you and Changbin were good friends. I’m sorry about what happened to him.”
“It’s still so shocking,” Chan said in confusion. “Mrs. Yoon killed him just like that. It was…It was horrible.”
You knew what Felix was doing, and it riled you up again.
“Yeah, I didn’t see it,” Felix said, “But I heard it was brutal. If you want, we could hang out during lunch. I don’t want you to be alone-”
“-He won’t be alone because I’ll be with him,” you snapped. “You can go back to your delinquent friends now, Felix.”
“Screw off, Park. You’re not the only person who cares about him. Stop being so clingy and creepy-”
“-The only creepy one here is you-”
“-Stop it,” Chan said, putting up his hands to keep you apart. “I really don’t need this today, okay? Can't you two get along for a few minutes, please?”
“I’m sorry, Channie-hyung,” you pouted. “I didn’t want him to upset you.”
“We’ve been friends since elementary school,” Felix glared. “I’d never upset him. Hyung,” he turned to Chan, “I’ll be in the canteen. Go there when you manage to shake this little insect off you.”
“Felix, don’t be mean.”
Felix scoffed, giving you one last glare, and then walked ahead to his friends. Your eyes followed him to the group, where you imagined he’d begun bashing you.
“I can’t believe you’re friends with him of all people,” you said disapprovingly. “He’s bad news.”
“Felix might get into trouble and be kind of a jerk sometimes, but he’s not always bad,” he assured you. “He’s always been a good friend to me.”
“Aren’t I a good friend too?”
Chan smiled softly at your question, then pinched your cheek affectionately. “Of course you are, YNie.”
The soft pinch gave you butterflies. “And aren't I a good hyung to you?” he asked, giving you the same sweet smile. It lifted your spirits, and you took his hand in yours.
“You are.”
“Better than Minho?”
“Way better.”
Your eyes stayed on Felix's back as you entered the school. Before now, you might have fretted over how you dispose of him. But with the guidebook on your side, you'd navigate his level a lot easier. Something about him told you that he'd be a bit more complicated.
****
A/N: Definitely one of the shorter ones, but don't worry, Felix's is right after this.

ooc: why do you tag your blog with tags like "npmd fanart"? Last time I checked this blog wasn't a blog that posted fanart. It just doesn't make sense ??? like no offense and I get wanting people to see your blog but misusing tags like this is just going to make more people dislike your blog...
OOC: Hello. Totally valid question. Nicer way to put it? Sure. But valid nonetheless. Believe it or not, I actually had an old NPMD Instagram page that posted fanart. Very few followers. Has since been deleted. The tags I use on here on the same C&P tags to the ones I used on Instagram, just with some added role-play tags. When I created this blog, I did not know what I was going to do with it and if it would solely be an ask blog. If you scroll far enough, you will find a post of me hinting to making this a joint fanart/role-play account. I have been using the same copy-and-pasted tags since my first post, thinking I'd repost my fanart someday on here. I also, at the time, wanted my blog to be seen by everybody, and therefore maxed tags. As I've grown as a blog, I've just never thought to change the tags. It's always just been copied and pasted. This has since been changed and thanks for bringing this to my attention. On a different note I've said this before, and will say it again: I don't care if you don't like my blog. If you hate me, block me. I have a good fan base on here and I adore all 200 and something of my followers. I don't understand why everyone has been so nitpicky on my page recently, but please, I'm overwhelmed as is and really don't need people pulling apart every little thing I do on here. I do this for fun. If you don't like it, block me. Don't hate. Not to blame you anon, but this blog is for fun and I get many asks per day, which means I've amassed nearly 600 posts in 4 or 5-ish months. If I'm unknowingly plaguing the NPMD tags, block me and move on. No need to spread hate on this. I've gotten so many critics in my asks that I've deleted. Wanna guess how many? 10 in one week. Complaining about my tags, my answers to asks, my slow times to answer asks. This blog will never be perfect. I have a job, go to school, and run this. The only reason why I didn't delete this ask is because I find it valid and I will change this little thing. Please, the many anonymous criticisms I've been getting every week is exhausting and I hate having to delete all of them. Not to say you caused all of them, anon, I'm just putting it out there to everyone. No hate to you. Just please, stop with the spam critics. They do not make me want to keep running this blog. I have no plans to quit, but I am so tired of the stupid nitpicks. This one? valid. Hence why I answered. The people telling me to stop posting so much, among other things? please stop.
And to my 200+ loyal followers, love you all. Your support means the world to me. Truthfully. Answering asks really keeps me going.

KNOWING YOUR PARTNER WELL CAN POTENTIALLY MAKE WRITING TOGETHER A LOT EASIER. REPOST, DO NOT REBLOG !!
NAME: jamey is my name gay is my game (but also idrc what you call me. i've been called many-a-thing, such as: jammy, jimmy, jimjam, james, yimmy, yammy, yimyam, yamey, jamnelius, jamison the third, etc)
PRONOUNS: he/him ONLY! <3
PREFERENCE OF COMMUNICATION: if i hardly know you, IMs on tumblr is best until i know we vibe OOCly! then i'll give you my discord
NAME OF MUSE(s): kaeya alberich on this blog ofc but i also muse wriothesley, il capitano, xianyun, aether, jing yuan, boothill, argenti, hua cheng, xie lian, wei wuxi-- alright i'm not gonna put everyone here, if you wanna know the rest go to my mumu LMFAO
BEST EXPERIENCE: honestly a lot of my best experiences just stem from Meeting all the people i have and getting to befriend so many creative & wonderful individuals. making connections eclipses all else for me tbh
RP PET PEEVES / DEALBREAKERS:
- no OOC communication. i refuse to RP with anyone who doesn't talk to me OOCly, because i want to make sure that 1) we vibe, 2) we have the comfort of knowing we can talk to each other about boundaries/icks/plots, 3) WE VIBE.
- possessiveness. exclusivity is different because i really only do that with people i've known for A WHILE and that i trust. but if we're shipping (not exclusively) and you don't let me even interact with someone/someone's muse that's the same character as yours, even if it's just one-off/not for shipping purposes??? nah. i'm good.
MUSE PREFERENCES: characters that have gone through so fucking much and try their best for everyone around them, themselves, or the object of their affection. characters that paint themselves to be the villains so they can keep the focus on themselves and take all the blame so those they care for don't get lumped with them. powerful. sacrificial. giant heart. smiling but dying inside. hot as fuck. yknow.
PLOTS OR MEMES: both!!! i like both a lot! they're very situational because not everyone has the time to hunker down and plot stuff, or they just may not have the spoons or whatever other reason. plots are fun because you can get really in-depth and talk long term/potential ideas. memes are easy to use since, yknow, they already have ideas to build off of.
LONG OR SHORT REPLIES: i really don't mind either way, all i ask is that i'm not given one-liners if it's a serious rp. if it's some crack/one-shot, then whatever! but if we actually plotted something out, it'd devastate me if i was just met with like, one to three lines. to me, it says "i'm not really interested in this but i'm putting up with it." another thing i don't really want is to CONSTANTLY reply with like... 600+ words... i love writing a lot, i love setting up the exposition and doing dialogue, etcetc-- but i don't want to write out Every Single Detail or Every Single Thought about my character/my character has for EACH response, you know?
BEST TIME TO WRITE: late afternoon/evening/late night for me, usually! it really depends on what i'm doing that day, and how long my daily chores take (including game dailies/weeklies lmao)
ARE YOU LIKE YOUR MUSE(S): UH? i don't???? think so??????????? i mean. i definitely try my best for everyone, and... uh. hm. maybe in some aspects i guess alksfmalkgm

“A wee game I thought would be fun: choose an excerpt from one of your posted fics, 600 words or less, that will make people curious for more. Share it with the title of your fic and little to no context.”
**from Open Arms: Chapter 3 - Every Now and Then I Fall Apart
tw: text alluding to addiction, forced relationships, depression, self hatred. 780 words whoops 😬
Rick had passed out next to you, his naked body slung over yours in some lame attempt of cuddling. You didn’t know how many lines you had done, or the number of shots you took, before stumbling in here.
Didn’t remember the lick of his tongue in your mouth, the feel of his hands on your curves, your was body numb from the drugs and to him. All you remember is right now, waking in a puddle of tears, the taste of blood on your lips, your nose full of it.
Peeling Rick’s limp form from you, you make for the bathroom connected to his master bedroom. Your reflection was horrific. blood dripped from your nostrils and coated your teeth, eyeliner dragged down your face like a halloween mask gone wrong. Your body, stark naked except for a purpling hickey on your collar bone, and white residue between your cleavage.
You look away in disgust, hatred for the eyes that stared back from the mirror.
It wasn’t uncommon for you to wake up like this. Having spent the better half of every night for the last seven years the same way. Reaching for his hand, watching him slip through your fingers. Voice hoarse from crying, yelling, screaming his name.
Reaching for the plush hand towel Karen kept, you plop it into the sink and turn the faucet to hot, wetting it completely.
“So I'm a stranger now huh?”
Eddie’s words from early stuck with you long after you had left. Eddie fucking Munson. Seven years…No high or amount of time could ever make you forget his face.
The pain was always there. You were only able to paint over it with each new high you could conjure. But no matter the number of brush strokes, no matter the opaqueness of the paint color, Eddie always showed through. Like a ghost in the background of a photo.
The sink was nearly overflowing before you pulled the towel covering the drain, wringing the scalding water from it as you sat on the toilet lid and draped it over your face. The heated temperature having your skin raw and burning, a welcomed kind of pain.
Seven years and here he was, waltzing back into town like he hadn’t left you in shambles. Although him being back brought forth memories you wished would stop, seeing him alive and in the flesh settled a sore in your soul.
It also dug up anger. And under the wet towel you saw red.
Answers. That’s what you needed from him. You were just a kid then, you couldn’t understand, and maybe you still didn’t want to know why. But you craved to know, your mind gnawing at your skull to make sense of why he would decide to leave.
You had adapted to your surroundings, learned how to survive. He couldn’t. He was weak and spineless, that’s what everyone had said, and after a while you believed it too.
Stronger than Eddie Munson had ever been, you kept going. Living this god forsaken life because you didn’t have a choice.
You had your own place, a cute little two bedroom apartment. One you decorated to your liking. You had a job that paid your bills. You had someone that loved…someone that took care of you in ways you didn’t know were possible.
You were different, and so was he. What did he have? Nothing. No one.
The towel dripped water onto your bare thighs, and you concentrated on that little tick rhythm until it picked up, sending water down in almost a wave.
Maybe that’s how he wanted his life to be, maybe that was why he left in the first place. Maybe you were standing in his way the whole time like a roadblock.
You didn’t realize the heave of your chest, how your breathing was uneven and shallow, choking off.
Then you heard it. The gut wrenching sobs coming from yourself.
It didn’t work anymore. Quite frankly you wondered if it ever had.
Pretending Eddie was an asshole and that you were better without him was the only way for you to deal with him leaving in ‘82.
The lies you continued to tell yourself about Eddie were falling flat. Your brain could be fooled, but the space he lived in your chest couldn’t be coerced that easily. He was inescapable, nightmares or not, you yearned for the hours when he would visit you.
In your dreams he was real. Still in Hawkins.
Your sobs turned hysteric. Lungs burning with no reprieve as you felt the same loss and emptiness that burrowed in your chest seven years ago.
Why? How could he leave without you?

And I was actually happy for today. Like, I was a little prepared for Damian's shit but I wasn't prepared to see that and be reminded of how I was made to be the bad guy for calling Damian a bully.
Honestly that kind of behaviour from the fandom is probably the second main reason I avoid looking into other people's blogs (and why I have the dami/anya tag blocked) right after avoiding manga spoilers. If I'm to look through someone's blog for funny and relatable sxf stuff and then stumble upon someone talking about how sweet and cute and completely blameless Damian is... yeah nope bye.
I know, I know, not everyone is like this. I'm not putting the blame on all of his fans. Though that's not easy to say when I know there's a post out there talking about how Damian never bullied Anya - like, iirc, that was the actual title or something - and it has over 600 notes. And along with this thing and being talked to like I'm the wrong one, I cannot really feel comfortable among this fandom in general. Like okay love whatever blorbo you like and ship whatever you wanna ship, that's not what I'm judging here.
But if I'm to risk being told I'm making people uncomfortable just because I use the word "bully" for a fictional character who actually exhibits bully behaviour... yeah I just need that stance really fucking away from me.

Hiya! I’m kind of a small creator on here and trying to get my rottmnt fic an audience but no matter what I do as promo material (art, skits, rambles) nothing ever works to get more than like 2 notes max. I’m confident in my story’s quality so I’m fairly sure that’s not the issue. I was wondering if you have any advice or anything like that? Your stuff is lovely and get a lot of community engagement so I’m curious if there was anything you actively did that helped you grow! I hope this doesn’t come off as rude or desperate, I just wanted to know if I was missing something since I’m pretty new to Tumblr. Enjoy your day ^^
Don't worry! You don't come off as rude or desperate at all!! <3
But tbh... you are asking the wrong person here...
I'm going into marketing, and I spent a full school year in high school doing an independent study on social media algorithms. So I know a LOT about how to grow social media followings- specifically instagram accounts.
But I never actually studied tumblr. I used to use instagram as a platform, but knowing how the algorithm worked was too stressful for me... I'd post stuff and be like "the algorithm won't like this because blah blah blah." Eventually I was drawing for the algorithm and not for me, and so I quit because it just wasn't fun anymore...
Which is why I have very specifically not studied Tumblr's algorithm, because I don't want it to turn into the same situation as with instagram. So I don't know a ton about how to grow a following... and also I've only been on tumblr for 5 months...
THAT BEING SAID: I can walk you through my tumblr and how it's grown!
My very first post was of a meme redraw with the 2012 turtles. I think it got around 1,600 likes?
I posted a couple more things, with varying amounts of likes and such. My first comic (which I never actually completed past the first part) got a total of 7 likes within the first months of posting it. Only when I got more followers did the like amount change.
When I posted my first chapter of the Flashbacks AU, I had 33 or so followers. I think I got to like... 300 followers from that first chapter alone. From there it was just... a steady growth of followers I guess. And with followers comes more reblogs, and with more reblogs comes more followers.
I have around 1,600 followers now. Not everyone is gonna like my posts, I think I get around 20 for responded asks and 100-300 for random pieces of art. Comics get closers to 600 or so. It depends on the content.
I think there are a couple of universal things that help grow an account:
1- Making sure your content is reaching the right people. Put the right tags in. Go crazy with them in fact. If I'm posting a piece with Rise Mikey in it, Im gonna tag: Mikey, Mikey tmnt, Mikey 2018, ROTTMNT, Rise Mikey, etc etc. On instagram they are currently trying to get people to limit their use of tags, but I don't think the same thing applies here. Even tho tags don't help as much here, they are still a good tool!
2- Consistency. Idk how it works on this platform, but consistency is generally a good thing! With instagram theres an actual method to it (1 post a day= good, but the more posts you do a day the less people it shows it to), it might be worth it to look up if tumblr has something similar.
3- Have fun with it! I know this is kinda lame to say... but don't change your content for views. Just... do what you like and eventually your target audience will find you :)
4- Engage with what audience you do have! It's fun to bond with people online, and it helps that "community engagement" piece you talked about!
5-... stalk people hehe. (By which I mean: Look at what other artists post! What tags do they use, do they reblog their own posts a lot, etc etc. Also look at artists with similar followings to your own. For example, studying Cass might not be very helpful, because Cass has a large amount of followers and I'm convinced they could post a picture of a blank canvas and still get 1,000 likes hehe... BUT- I mean you could scroll down to Cass' (or other artist's) first posts and see what they were doing then! Just... observe others I suppose!)
Id love to tell you likes don’t matter, that what matters is having fun and loving what you are drawing. But also I do know how it feels to post something you are really proud of and then have no one like it- it sucks.
But just keep on going :) You'll find your people eventually I'm sure.
OH ALSO: IF ANYONE ELSE HAS ANY TIPS FEEL FREE TO REBLOG AND ADD STUFF IN!!! <3
#cass is very cool...#ANYWHO- I hope that helped? Feel free to ask any follow up questions... I'm not sure how helpful I was :/#<3 <3 <3#Good ask!!!#I think I'm a bit of an unusual case tho? Maybe???#Idk a lot about tumblr...#GOOD LUCK THO!!! IM WISHING U ALL THE BEST!!! <3#HAVE FUN WITH UR ART!!! AND YOUR COMICS!#social media can be frustrating... but it can also be fun! Try to find a way to make it fun for you :) However that works best for you <3#and if the thing that would make it fun is getting a lot of likes... then I hope this helps :)#answered asks#AH OKAY IM DONE BYE <3#oh last point you can also use other apps as traction apps.#i can explain that if you are interested in doing that...

Feel free to skip no pressure! Top 10 fics or fics which you can reread and still have the same fun as reading the first time.
oh man... I love fic and read a lot of it but rarely do rec stuff cause my faves are like... everyone's faves?? who needs me to hype the same fandom classics right? But I absolutely appreciate you for this very good idea of something to do sooo... here some are! Maybe a lot are well known but I HAVE reread these SO MUCH- and once you get past the best known ones I think there are some people might not know? And many worth a reread!
1) listen they're popular for a reason okay! sorry I'm basic
Escapade by dolce_piccante 146k yeah yeah let's just get it out of the way I can't help it it IS my favorite

and when I tell you I've reread more of these kingsofeverything fics than not... that's a lot of words! and I just love allwaswell16 as well, and... oh dang. you know what. And a lot of people. This is why I don't do recs. I'm sorry I can't list everyone maybe this was a mistake D:
2) maybe less well known? maybe just shorter idk

there's always another option 6k will this one get me in trouble? it's just really good okay! I mean, read the tags on everything don't read stuff that will upset you in general for all of them
ANYWAY my real fic rec list is my bookmarks basically... have at it! I mean I can't believe all the really really good authors that aren't even on here, go look at my like 13 pages of recs and you'll see why....
also you can pretty much assume 'and the rest of their fics too' about most of these people
#fic recs#what the hell its just self indulgent anyway- but plus there are some new people around#maybe they haven't read the classics!#these are all m/m larry#I like what I like you know#they don't reflect how much I like abo oddly hm#but a very high percentage are ones that are very funny so thats fun#I already regret this its stressful I can't include everything no one read this

the scene when they're laying down he's only wearing underwear whilist the girl is fully clothed, it could mean him trying (since he's almost naked: "shed the past") but also not wanting to leave his old self behind and that's why they still reach for each other, the people around them, getting uncomfortably close to harry, are the obstacles he has to face "alone" once he starts his new life while leaving the past behind, OR the obstacles he had to face while trying to move on.
like the whole mv is reaching and reaching and reaching until he’s dancing and jumping and smiling and it only happens once he was able to let go completely of the past.
ALSO just before he starts dancing he touches himself in a “is this real am i really here” way and then he opens his arms and it feels like he’s breathing again, no weight on his shoulder.

What's it like being queer in a super rural area? I live in a "rural" red area right now that still has nearly a million people, but it's expensive here, and my family wants to move somewhere cheaper and redder, like Arkansas, so I'm really nervous about that idea
It’s definitely a challenge. I will say I’m not in the worst place to be. I’m north east of pittsburgh by about 80 miles, so it’s definitely not like being in the deep south by any means. But I live in a town of 600 people and work in the next town over, which is about 3,000 people. So…. it’s pretty fucking rural lol. Of course, I do see so many MAGA 2024 type shit everywhere, people love bringing up how it’s Biden’s fault their prescriptions are expensive (🙄), and shit like that.
However, though, most people just keep their mouth shut where I live. I maybe have gotten dirty or confused looks, but so far I’ve never experienced any issues. A lot of people here are old country farm folk, so they’ve had respect like beaten into them. It’s rude to just… bring that shit up. Which is fine by me. Talk about me behind my back for all I care, just leave me the hell alone.
It’s very Christian here as well (extremely protestant ofc), but a lot of the Christians I’ve interacted with have zero issues. My boss is a small town farm girl who’s an evangelical, super pro life and stuff like that, but she loves talking about my relationship with my partner. She even took the both of us out to her farms and got ice cream on one of our days off. A lot of people here are the “well why wouldn’t I love you? Jesus loves everyone!” type Christians, which I can work with a lot easier lol.
I mean, I have they/them pronouns on my work name tag and so far no one has said anything at all. My coworkers all know I’m queer and respect that. If anyone has ever had any issues with me, I had no idea. And that’s all I really care about.
I will say though, there is an othering feeling. Like I don’t belong. I’m not from this area, I’m not like these people. I was born and raised in NH about 45 miles from Boston, so going back home it’s just… more likely to see other queer people. I feel less afraid that people are watching my every move. Here, being so butch as I am, people definitely stare as they try to figure me out.
Overall though, I think the average person here really doesn’t give a shit. They’re too focused on their farms or jobs or drugs or whatever to not care what’s in my pants or who I’m fucking lol. I’ve lived here since Sept 2021 and I can’t recall ever having an issue. But this is more Midwest, so culture will definitely be different than other rural areas.
Hope this gives at least a little insight.
