#things that are just fucking weird: everything else. what the fuck.

[thatsmistertoyou]

maybe a hot take idk

look I know many people are upset about the pricing/fee situation of the TIT livestream (me included, I was pissed as hell that I got a large surprise fee), and I hope everything gets sorted out. I’m proud of the phandom for being loud and demanding fairness from the platform. you will not get shit past us.

I understand that. however, I completely disagree with some opinions I’ve seen (mainly on twitter but whatever) that charging for the stream at all is greedy, especially for people who have already paid to see the show. this is a weird take imo because this stream is supposed to be an opportunity for people who didn’t get to go to see it with an audience as a communal experience. but if you already spent money and don’t want to spend more, don’t!

and I don’t know anything about anything but based on the very little information dnp have provided about the cost of touring, I really don’t think they have the option to just do the stream for free. this is just my opinion, but based on how dan said he lost money touring WAD, i would not be surprised if the livestream paid for the rights he needed to release it for free on YouTube (and the extremely important rights to play All Star in the credits). just because he wrote and performed it doesn’t mean he owned it. it would not surprise me at all if the profits from the stream don’t go to dnp only.

and also, Things Cost Money, including livestreams. I think the platform has really showed their ass, but if we remove them from the equation for a second - everyone who put on TIT, including Dan and Phil, deserve to be compensated for their work. I don’t expect them to bleed money into this project forever just because it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I’m sure they’re doing just fine financially, but they are not and never have asked anyone to take food off their table to support them.

I actually find it really disheartening to see just how many people were like, legitimately, personally angry with dnp before they had even had a chance to respond to our concerns. I’ve been around long enough to remember when they announced TABINOF, there was an uproar about how they were sellouts because they were writing a book just like every other youtuber, making a shitty cashgrab when they had nothing to say. in the 2 days before we knew what the book would even be about, the Discourse had never been more annoying or mean spirited.

and it made me wonder, what are yall doing here if you assume the worst like that? have you just been waiting for the masks to slip? are you appalled that they participate in the heinous capitalistic act of selling their labor like everyone else? have your years of support not earned a little bit of grace when there’s a miscommunication?

I’m not saying approach everything like ‘they’ve never done anything wrong once in their whole lives and never will’, but the vitriol that seems to come out at minor fuck ups is alarming. some of yall do not like them and it shows. (I am looking directly at twitter dot com now)

I find that attitude really sad. after the TABINOF drama, I promised myself I’d never lose sleep over phandom nonsense again, so I’m going to bed, just had to get some thoughts out there. 💙

Courting Tournament: Spicynoodles edition~<3

and now to outline for you all here, the premise of a Courting Tournament fic i plan on Actually Writing.

So, its post Season 5, and for the moment at least, MKs hero life has slipped back into the comfortable rhythm of jobber demons causing trouble and MK stopping them, as many weak or low level demons get emboldened by the powerboost from the Pillar Stones.

But then things start getting weird. Slowly but surely the Various Demon attackers get less and less focused on whatever Mayhem or theivery or whatever they were up to and start focusing more and more on MK himself. Not in a "defeat you for glory way" either, in a much more uncomfortable way.

And if that werent bad enough, MK finds himself slipping into his Monkey form more and more often, thankfully without emotional distress or uncontrollable power outbursts, but it just keeps happening and MK still isnt very used to the form to begin with.

Mk being Mk of course tries to hide slash ignore these issues until he cant anymore. Culminating in a fight with a stronger than average demon who get MK on the back foot for a hot second and starts saying some very uncomfortable things about how he cant wait to take MK home and make him his little wife/husband/mate.

MK hearing that immediately goes monkey mode, puts that guy through several walls, and flies off to FFM to find out what the hell is going on.

And Like, MK knows about courtnapping, the basics at least, that demon tradition considers whisking away prospective mates and showing them how well you can protect them and provide for them the height of romance. A little weird but hey, humans have had some weird romance traditions as well.

But the realization that all the demons he's been fighting want to courtnap HIM? combined with the weird stuff going on with his monkey form? MK cant deal with this.

By the time he gets to Wukongs house he's crying and stuck in his monkey form with no idea what to do about everything. Wukong immediately bundles his successor onto the couch and, after a glass of water and some comforting fur grooming, manages to get out of him whats wrong.

Needless to say Wukong is Concerned and a bit miffed that MK didnt tell him or anyone else what was going on. But concern and caring for his crying student whos clearly stressed the fuck out now, lecturing later.

With his eyes of truth and maybe a magic test of some sort, Wukong discerns the cause of all the nonsense.

MKs body has Reached the demonic state of full maturity, which most notably includes the core of his magic fully maturing. Because of this, not only is he more or less stuck in Monkey form for awhile, but every demon for miles around can feel vibrant energy coming off him in waves.

And they want a peice of that.

So, Regardless of how widespread the knowledge of Sun Wukongs successor (and basically heir) was before, its spread to all corners of demon scociety now. And just like his mentor before him poor MK is getting swarmed.

MK is understandably upset by these revelations and may or may not start hyperventilating while trying to play it off and insist he can totally handle it. Wukong decides to call in the rest of the Monkie Kid Crew to come up with a plan.of action. Cause while MK could probably handle most of his suitors, he shouldnt have to.

Some explaining, arguing and tea brewing later the whole crew is gathered in Wukongs house, Mk cuddled up between Mei and Tang.

Options are gone through and discarded, letting MK just deal with them as they come is out. Wukong offers MK to stay on Flower Fruit mountain till the suitors get the hint and leave him be since thats what he ultimately did, but when asked how long that could take Wukong makes an uncomfortable noise and avoids eyecontact as he remembers it took over a century. So... no.

Eventually Wukong Sighs and brings up a solution he knows can deal with these types of situations, at least for awhile, If they Hold a Courting Tournament for MK, they can deal with all of his suitors at once and turn what could be months of headache into a couple weeks at most.

Theres a lot of yelling and explaining, and Wukong ultimately puts the decision in MKs hands. Mk thinks long an hard but ultimately decides a couple weeks/few days of being a spectacle is preferable to who knows how long of being harrassed.

"*sigh* Lets do the tournament thing"

~●~●~●~●~●~●~●~

So wheres Red Son in all this? At some big fancy Demon gala/festival thing with his parents, bored out of his mind and surrounded by people he mostly dislikes. As is typical for such gatherings.

He and his parents are there to shmooze, make alliances and work on properly reestablishing the Demon Bull Families influence in Demon high society.

Redson, after having one to many snide comments made his way about his families repeated defeats at the hands of Wukongs successor, is hiding in a corner sipping a drink waiting for the night to be over.

And definitely not thinking about how much he'd rather be hanging out with the Dragon Girl and Noodle Boy, especially Noodle boy.

Until the host of the event calls the whole rooms attention to make a big announcement. That theyve just recieved a messenger from Flower Fruit Mountain. The mere mention sends a stir through the crowd, the Monkey kinds been basically a reculse for the last several centuries so him sending out a message is big.

And it is big. As the announcement, to this gathering and all of the three realms, is that Wukong and company will be holding a Courting Tournament, no not for the Monkey king again, but for his Successor.

Red Son Drops his glass and cant even begin to care when it shatters on the floor.

~○~▪︎~○~▪︎~○~

Back with Monkie Kid Gang plans are being made.

Mei all but insists on being MKs Champion. And While MK is worried she might get hurt, Wukong swears to him that he as host will enforce Strict Rules to prevent such things.

Thus, the stage is set. I'll come back to this, but since i plan to write this as a full fic, i dont want yo spoil too much.

Naive- YJW

Warnings: NSFW| MDNI

~hi all, literally got this idea last night and had to write it~

Jungwon wasn’t an experienced man, in fact he spent most of his time trying to pretend he wasn’t attracted to you. Which is crazy considering you two were dating, and you had been for several months now. It isn’t like he didn’t want to do anything else, god he was dying to do more with you. He was just nervous. On the other hand, It’s not like you were super experienced yourself, but there were things you knew that he didn’t. The most you two had done was kiss. They were fantastic kisses, Jungwon had always been a great kisser. But he was holding himself back. There had been a handful of times when you’d start getting carried away while kissing that he could feel himself getting worked up. The very first time you sat in his lap while making out with him he got hard immediately. He didn’t know what to do, what his brain was screaming for him to do was to rut up into you. Instead, he sat there stiff. In more ways than one.

You were so excited the first time it happened, you had been waiting for the day that your beautiful and innocent boyfriend would give into his desires. All you really wanted to do was make him feel good. You just didn’t understand why he was so hesitant. You tried to encourage him but saw how embarrassed he would get so you decided to shut it down. As eager as you were, it wasn’t worth making him uncomfortable. So you decided the next time the situation arose, you’d simply talk to him about it. You just didn’t think that would happen today.

He had been acting weird all afternoon, you couldn’t put your finger on why that was. He on the other hand, was very close to losing his sanity. He had been with you all afternoon and from the minute you had walked through the door he was rock hard. It was everything about you. The slightly low cut shirt you were wearing leaving just enough to the imagination, but that was making him damn near salivate. It took everything in him not to bury his face in between your breasts. You also happened to be wearing his favorite pair of jeans, the ones that made your ass look fantastic. And you smelled so good too, god he was done for. He had been doing his best to avoid being too close to you if it wasn’t absolutely necessary. But it was a battle he was losing. It wasn’t like you weren’t aware of what he was doing, you could see the hard on he was trying and failing to hide. He was only wearing sweatpants but you could see the outline of him so clear that you knew he couldn’t have been wearing anything underneath. The longer you looked at it the more you wanted to reach out and take him in your hand. Fuck this, you thought, this is getting ridiculous. You’d had a long week and all you wanted was to be with your boyfriend. Without another word, you got up crossed the room and sat down next to him on the couch.

Without realizing it, his body relaxed into yours. Damn, he did miss you. He hadn’t been afforded much free time lately to spend with you. Out of the corner of his eye he sees you start to flash a smile at him. One that could make him do anything you wanted. His body is moving on autopilot, because before he knows it he’s reaching a hand out to cradle your cheek. You nuzzled your face into his hand in such a delicate way that he could feel himself giving in. “Hi sweet boy, missed you”. Wrapping his arms around you and pulling you into his lap he leans in to place a chaste kiss on your cheek. You shook your head mid kiss leaving your boyfriend confused. “Was my kiss not enough for you baby”? You roll your eyes at him before leaning in. “If you’re going to kiss me won, do it right. I’ve needed to be kissed by you all week. Do this for me please”. He never could say no to you. He tried to take the kiss slow, but you wouldn’t let him. One of your favorite things was sneaking your tongue into kisses with your boyfriend. He was always so shy at first, but you could hear the little groans and sighs he was letting out before finally giving in. You tried to pull away from the kiss to catch your breath but as quick as you had pulled away Jungwon had kissed you again. He tried to be nonchalant about moving your hands into his hair, and you let him think that you truly believe it was your idea.

He’s sick, he knew when he moved your hands into his hair that he was getting worked up. He really thought he’d be able to control his body, but when you gently tugged on his hair you felt his hips jump up into yours. He pulled away immediately, hiding his face in the crook of your neck. You were well aware of what was happening. He was fighting a battle with himself, one he usually won. But this time, he was already too far gone. You tried to kiss him again but he moved away from you so fast it gave you whiplash. Your hands, still in his hair, gave another experimental tug, hoping it would bring his attention back to you. He let out a hiss and took a deep breath. “Baby, it’s okay”. His face was still in your neck but he had started slowly moving his hands down to settle on your hips. “It’s embarrassing baby. I can’t”. You coaxed him out of your neck and got him to look at you. “s’not embarrassing baby, don’t you wanna feel good”? He did want to feel good, he wanted it more than anything. So maybe it was time he let go.

“I do wanna feel good baby, so fucking bad. I’m just in my head about it”. A surge of affection shot through you hearing his confession. “Oh baby boy, let me help you, yeah”? It really hadn’t occurred to him that you’d be willing to do this for him. He’d thought about you so many times alone in the comfort of his own home fucking into his fist. In fact, the amount of times he had cum to the thought of you was embarrassing. He was getting stuck in his head again, you were sitting in his lap looking so beautiful for him and he was leaving you waiting. “God I want that so bad baby”. You took it upon yourself to start leaving kisses down his neck, moving down to his collarbones which was a spot you noticed was sensitive for him. “Can I touch you baby? Make you feel good”? He was quick to nod his head, throwing it back and shutting his eyes in anticipation.

You move off of his lap, going to settle in between his knees. He’s shaking in anticipation, not sure what to expect from you. You reach your hand out to touch him over his pants experimentally. As soon as he feels your hand cupping him through his sweats he can’t control his hips grinding up into your hand. You take a few minutes simply feeling him up over his pants. His moans started out breathy and quiet at first but grew in bass by the second. When you go to move your hand away from him he lets out a whine, missing the contact instantly. “Feel okay baby”? His thoughts were racing, he didn’t know what to think. There also wasn’t anything that could’ve prepared him for how good your hand would feel on him. He didn’t respond, no actually, he couldn’t respond. He was fucked out already and you had barely even touched him. “Jungwon, do you want me to keep going”? Again, he’s quick to shake his head yes. “please baby”. You go to start pulling his sweats down so you have better access to him. He can’t maintain eye contact with you with the way you’re ogling his cock.

He’s too obsessed with the way you’re looking at him to notice that you asked him a question. “Do you want my hand or my mouth baby”? Selfishly he wanted both, he just didn’t know how to ask for it. He doesn’t answer so you reach out and cup his cock. “Oh- fuck. Fuck I can’t think. Hand. I mean your hand baby. I want your hand please”. Then you do the sexiest thing that Jungwon has ever seen in his life, you spit into your hand before reaching out to start stroking him. You keep a slow pace at first, not wanting to overload him with too much at once. You’d think he was getting fucked the way he was moaning. He had an arm thrown over his face, shielding him from looking. It’s then you decide to speed your hand up, stroking him faster. “Oh fuck me. Oh god, baby”. You had only been jerking him off for a couple of minutes but Jungwon was seconds away from cumming. He was embarrassed that with such little stimulation he was about to cum incredibly hard. So without a second thought you lean in and start kitten licking at his tip. You don’t miss the way his eyes shoot open at the action. He has his hands at his side desperately clutching at the cushions on the couch trying to ground himself.

You’re obsessed with the power you’re wielding over him. But now that you have him here in front of you moaning so prettily for you, you were prepared to give him everything he wanted. You take the next few seconds taking him in your mouth fully. On pure instinct his hands shoot to your head. They’re holding you loosely unsure of what to do but when the tip of his cock hits the back of your throat and your gag reflex kicks in he accidentally bucks up into your mouth. The way you gag around his cock makes him dizzy. He never imagined just how tight and warm your throat would feel, but he’s in another world right now. He almost cums then and there when you look up at him and smile. He swears you became 10 times more beautiful to him in that moment with your mouth full of his cock.

Jungwon was trying to be good, he was trying so hard to keep his hands to himself but the way you were sucking him off was overwhelming him. Everytime he hit the back of your throat his grip on your hair tightened. And every time that happened his hips would buck up into your mouth. “Oh fuck baby, I’m sorry shit, I- It feels so fucking good oh my god. I can’t fucking stop baby, I’m sorry”. You weren’t sure what exactly he was apologizing for until his hands stilled your movements altogether and he started fucking into your mouth. He kept apologizing with every thrust he made. At first, his thrusts were shallow, unsure of how to move his hips but then once he was more certain of himself his pace started to increase. It was almost like you weren’t even there, he was so lost in pleasure he was essentially fucking himself with your mouth. And you’d be damned if that didn’t turn you on. He was moaning like crazy, unable to control anything other than the pace at which he was fucking your throat. “Fuck baby, I’m so sorry, feels too fucking good I can’t stop. Oh fuck baby, oh fuck”. He was starting to babble the closer he got to finishing. You were entirely too worked up by this point, so when he wasn’t looking you snuck your hand down into your pants and started touching yourself.

He didn’t really pick up on it until you started moaning around his cock. The sensation alone would’ve been enough to finish him, but then he saw your hand moving in between your legs and saw the way you were fucking your self that he knew he was done for. “Oh fuck are you touching yourself pretty? Oh god, can I see please”? Heeding his request, you stop for a second to pull your bottoms off fully. If he wanted a show he was going to get one. It was almost shameless the way you held out your hand to him. He wasn’t sure what you wanted him to do at first, then he realized you wanted him to spit into your hand. He watched as you brought your hand back in between your legs and spread his spit all around. His movements had stilled for a second, too fascinated just watching you play with yourself. Everything you did was dirty, the way you touched yourself was with a ferocity that he didn’t know you had in you. Then he saw you start to fuck yourself with your fingers that reminded him where he was and what he was doing. Slowly his hips started to move again, but his eyes never left your pussy. He was so fascinated with what you were doing and how you were doing it. He made a mental note to ask you to fuck your self in front of him later so he could see it up close. He’s nearly worked himself back up to the edge when he makes one last request for you. “Baby, can you match my pace? Wanna see you finish when I finish. Oh fuck you’re so pretty. I think I’m in love with you oh my god”.

All it took was a few more minutes of you both fucking yourselves to have you cumming. How he’s able to wait to finish after you is crazy to him. He didn’t realise you were so worked up for him. He now has a blinding grip on your head. He feels terrible that he’s just holding you there while he makes himself cum. But he doesn’t feel bad enough to stop himself. “Oh yeah, that’s it baby, fuck your mouth feels so good. Oh fuck I’m gonna cum baby, gonna make me cum oh fuck”. He’s overwhelmed by his impending orgasm so much so that he isn’t thinking. He figured he was going to finish in your mouth but in a haze he pulled you off of him in just enough time to cum all over your face. Seeing it, he let out the loudest groan you’ve ever heard. “Oh fuckkkkk, oh god you look so fucking good with my cum on your face baby”. It’s then you reach out to stroke him through his orgasm until he’s shaking with overstimulation. You keep stroking him until he’s hard for you again, this time it takes mere minutes for him to cum for you again. He cums so hard his hips are stuttering and he can hardly keep himself from falling over. He is well and truly spent. Without another word he picks up his phone and snaps a photo of you with his cum all over your face that he is for sure going to use the next time he’s alone and desperate for you.

Later, when the two of you are relaxing you can’t help but notice the permanent tint on his face that he’s had ever since earlier. You think he’s embarrassed because he told you he loved you for the first time with his dick in your mouth. You truly didn’t pay it any mind, you figured it was just in the moment. He is embarrassed but he’s more upset than anything. He does love you, he wanted to tell you before all of this happened and he can’t believe he said it while you were choking on his dick. “You look deep in thought won, what’s going through your head”? But you on the other hand were worried he felt pressured into it. He could tell you were overthinking everything and even though he wanted to crawl into a hole he needed to make it clear that he wanted it. “Baby, I know what you’re thinking and no you didn’t pressure me into this. I wanted it, very badly. And I really enjoyed it. God I actually fucking loved it. You’ve gotta let me watch next time you touch yourself please, it’s all I can think about”. He was begging himself to shut up, but the look on your face showed you were enjoying his word vomit. “Yeah? I enjoyed it too”. At that he gestures for you to sit in his lap and when he pulls you into the warmest hug you’ve ever gotten you know for certain you’re in love with him too. “Jungwon, I- I love you”. His eyes shot open, and if you didn’t know better you would say they started watering. “Baby do you mean that”? You just shook your head and leaned in to press a little kiss to his cheek. “Fuck baby, I love you too. You have no idea”. The confession of his love for you sent warmth through your body. You were ready in that moment to give him anything he wanted. You lean in to his ear, biting the lobe teasingly. “Do you wanna watch me now baby”? That was all it took for him to stand up and pull you into his bedroom where he had you teach him how to make you feel as good as you made him feel. By the end of the night he was a pro at making you fall apart with his mouth, paying you back for earlier.

It is frustrating when people make a show about how open-minded they are but then apply it inconsistently

That being said, I would still have an issue with it even if they weren't also being hypocrites about it, for the same reason the entire ~body positivity~ thing went so off the rails when it started getting flattened into "everyone's beautiful!" (which, I'm sorry, but it's just not true -- beautiful is a relative descriptor indicating that something has more beauty than another and by definition cannot all be equal; what an individual considers beautiful can certainly be very different from another individual's idea of beauty, and it's true that no matter what a person looks like, there is probably someone out there who thinks that is the height of beauty, but that does not mean everyone is obligated to find everything and everyone beautiful) when it was supposed to be "your worth as a person doesn't change based on how many people consider you beautiful."

I know there are people in the fandom who get extremely upset when Snape is called ugly, and insist that he's actually very attractive. Now, that is entirely subjective and they are perfectly free to consider him attractive. However, I have a problem with this weird knee jerk reaction some of them have about it where no one else is allowed to think he's ugly. Whether or not you personally have conventional tastes, he is not described as being conventionally attractive, and I think it's important to be ok with that as well, to accept that how he looks definitely causes people to judge him, but that it doesn't actually say anything about him as a person. And to that end, I don't think there needs to be a reason why his hair is greasy or his teeth are crooked or whatever. It's possible he has some skin condition, it's possible he has sensory issues...but something rubs me wrong about the line of thinking that involves finding some "excuse" (especially when there's absolutely nothing remotely in canon about it) as to why he's "allowed" to look a certain way, because the unspoken implication is still that appearance matters, and he gets a pass because of some special circumstance, and that if he is actually just a regular neurotypical straight white man without any other issues it would not be acceptable, and it's only acceptable as long as we can come up with a reason. You are actually allowed to think that something is unattractive regardless of why (biology, aesthetic or cultural choice, situation, condition, etc) and you are not obligated to defend that, at the same time, you probably shouldn't be going around bullying people for features beyond their control whether you know the reason or not. I dunno, this just gets into a lot of identity politics issues I find very fucked up about Tumblr.

I know the point of this post was about the hypocrisy and not whether Snape's good-looking or not and I fully agree with that. I just additionally think that those people's fundamental premise of "everyone's beautiful! uwu" is itself missing the real point and I am strongly on team Let People Be Ugly.

I love how the Marauders fandom is like everybody is perfect the way they are, they can be black, brown, white, fat, skinny, tall, short, everyone is pretty. Except Snape, no no no, he cannot be pretty, he has greasy hair, you cannot be pretty with greasy hair

HEAD OVER HEELS

yandere ! sonic the hedgehog x fem ! y/n.

This contains lovesick obsession, stalking, unhealthy thoughts, murder, and blood.

---

Sonic had always been known as the charming, carefree hero. The one with the dazzling smile which could make girls go crazy over, the one who could make hearts race with just a wink. he was charming, carefree, he was the blue blur.

That was who he was supposed to be.

So.. why was he acting like this now?

it had all started with the moment that he laid eyes on her.

A female named Y/n l/n.

the first time he saw her, he felt something in his chest snap. The world seemed to have shrunk, his pupils dilating, and his mouth turning dry.

Everything else in the backround blurred--No sound, no movement, with his eyes unmoving, stuck on y/n.

his heart felt as though it was going to be burst.

Instantly, he didnt waste any time on making a move--going up to her, asking for her name, and making a few flirty remarks-- and his fingers twitched when he saw how at one of his stupid jokes, she let out a soft, breathy giggle.

oh, he was so fucked.

It wasn’t just attraction. It wasn’t a simple crush. No—this was something much worse. Something he couldn’t control, something that consumed him like wildfire.

Sonic had fought countless battles. He had faced gods, monsters, and threats that could shatter reality. But never—not once—had he like this.

Fear of not having this girl nearby.

It was ridiculous, insane even. But none of that mattered because Sonic had already fallen. Hard.

And he swore, from the very first second, that he’d never let her go.

and ever since that day, he promised to 'protect' y/n from the cruel world.

---

At first, he tried to be normal about it. Really, he did.

He told himself that it was just admiration. That he just liked her more than most. That there was nothing wrong with wanting to be around her.

But then, he started following her.

It wasn’t stalking—not at first. He just wanted to make sure she was okay, that no one bothered her. She was fragile, delicate—what if she needed him and he wasn’t there?

So he watched.

From the rooftops, from the shadows, or from the darkest corners where no one would ever notice him.

She was breathtaking. she was a angel. His angel.

Every little thing she did made his heart ache. The way she tucked her hair behind her ear, the way she hummed to herself when she thought no one was listening, the way her lips curled into the softest smile.

She’s perfect.

He wanted to talk to her. Wanted to sweep her off her feet, to make her see him the way he saw her. But every time he got close, something held him back.

What if she thought he was weird? What if she somehow found out about the way he acted over her?

Sonic wasn’t stupid. He knew that people would call this obsession. That if anyone found out, they’d say he had lost it.

And maybe… maybe they’d be right.

But the thought of stopping? Of walking away and pretending like she wasn’t the most important thing in his world?

that was practically Impossible.

---

His room used to be simple. Tidy, functional, nothing too flashy.

Now? it was a shrine.

Photos of her covered the walls. Some were innocent—pictures he had taken from a distance, capturing her in the middle of a laugh or lost in thought. Others…? well, maybe not so much.

Some were photos of her changing, pictures of her all pretty and naked, illuminated by the moonlight. he couldnt help himself from drooling over these types of photos, his tail wagging wildly at the sight, and his pupils shaped as hearts.

He had even stolen little things she had used.

A hairpin she had dropped while taking a stroll, a napkin she used at a café, and even a worn-out hoodie she left in her living room.

He kept them all, tucked away like treasures, because they really were.

He would hold the hoodie close at night, inhaling the faint scent of her. It was comforting. It made him feel like she was his.

---

it became a daily thing, for him to silently watch her from a distance. and the others, slowly started to notice the change in his behaviour.

how he had become more silent.

how he always looked lost in thought.

And whenever they fought eggman, he wasted no time, no longer saying any of his stupid jokes, as if he had something far mar important to do. He didnt act like himself anymore, and everyone was worried--even shadow the hedgehog, felt as though sonic wasn't in his right mind.

And amy, was the first to ask, wanting to try comforting sonic. To see if he was feeling alright, if something happened.

but when she went to his apartment, knocking on his door, but there was no response. And when amy noticed that his door was.. left slightly open.

And so, amy, not thinking much of it, decided to walk in.

but what happened next, wasnt something she wanted to see.

photos, all over his room, of the same person, as well as a large shrine, with candles lit in the dark room.

and the next thing she knew?

Amy gasped, her breath hitching as suddenly, a sharp, searing pain bloomed in her back, and through her stomach. The dimly lit room flickered with the glow of candlelight, casting eerie shadows against the walls—walls covered in pictures.

Pictures of her.

Of a female that she didnt recognise.

Amy's trembling hands reached forward, barely brushing against the shrine before her legs buckled. She felt warmth pooling beneath her, her vision blurring as the overwhelming scent of melted wax and something metallic filled her nose.

and as she turned around with her remaining strength to see who had stabbed her, her eyes went wide.

Her lips parted. "Sonic..?" She weakly called out, her eyes filled with tears.

infront of her, Sonic stood in silence. No quips, no charm, no explanation. Just quiet, suffocating stillness, as the only sound in the room was Amys cries.

Amy’s mind reeled. This wasn’t him. This wasn’t the Sonic she knew, the Sonic she--

Another sharp jolt of pain ripped through her body as the blade twisted slightly. Her knees finally gave out, her body collapsing onto the cold, unforgiving floor, as she held her stomach, desperately trying to stop the blood from flowing out.

Sonic still said nothing.

He simply watched.

And as Amy’s world faded to black, the last thing she saw, was sonics expressionless face, uncaring, as he rolled his eyes.

And as amy closed her eyes, sonic had suddenly dropped to his knees. He didnt know why, since he felt nothing. he didnt he didnt feel any sorrow, any pain. he felt nothing.

How would the group react? Knowing he just killed amy?

He didnt want to know. No, he wouldnt let them know.

A lovesick mess. that's what he was. A man sick with obsession.

Y/n, had changed his whole life in mere seconds. And now, she was the only thing throughout this entire universe which mattered most to him.

"Great! now there’s a stain.." He sighed, staring at amys motionless body, as he kicked at it, staring at the blood splattered on his carpet.

Shit. he knew how fucked up this was, and just what everybody would do once they found out, yet thoughts of y/n just wouldnt leave his mind, Even in a moment like this.

He was head over heels for y/n. he knew that for sure.

Oh, how he hated how his hands shook when he wasn’t near y/n, and how his heart pounded at the mere thought of her.

He was supposed to be confident, free-spirited. respected by all.

and yet, here he was. A lovesick, obssessed stalker.

He stared at Amy’s lifeless body, but his eyes widened when he noticed a smudge of blood staining one of his precious photos of Y/N. Instinctively, he wiped it away with his thumb, his breath hitching before sighing in relief when no trace was left behind.

"Guess I’ll just have to clean up this mess."

Guys I can not write Sonic 😭😭🙏 ( I spent over an hour in total jst to proofread this sigh )

[lulumangione]

as someone who’s autistic i also really get the feeling that luigi is on the spectrum and i have nobody to talk about it with because i feel weird like armchair diagnosing him😭

his mannerisms really give it away for me. he’s overly expressive and literally cannot talk without using his hands—and also he comes off to other people as maybe “suspicious” which i really relate to and honestly makes me sad because he’s just chilling!! he might seem like he’s up to something to some but he just seems to me like he’s naturally very antsy and maybe uncomfortable in his own body so he fidgets a lot. i’ve done that little half stretch with the arms raised too many times to count. that’s not even mentioning his little default stance with the hands clasped in front of him or that stupid face he does in pictures sometimes where he scrunches up and looks like he’s gonna bite a bitch

and before he went missing he mentioned to some people feeling “different” from everybody else, like he was on a different wavelength, and that SCREAMS undiagnosed autistic to me. the “npc behavior” he described being so concerned with feels like an extension of this—i think maybe he felt like someone whose feelings are so so big in a world that seems to not feel much at all anymore. that feeling of not belonging and being out of place is the most autistic thing anyone can experience and i feel for him so much. if he does happen to be on the spectrum i wish he could’ve found some kind of community of other neurodivergent people that get him and share similar struggles because maybe then he wouldn’t have felt so alone. idk this turned into a RANT sorry i’m very passionate about autism can you tell

NONNIE YOU'RE SO FUCKING REAL OMG Thank you so much for this ask, you expressed so clearly how I feel about it too!!

As a fellow autistic, at least in my personal experience, I can easily tell when someone clocks that I'm autistic, despite the fact I'm extroverted and a pretty confident person. I think Luigi falls under that too.

No matter how hard you can try to not seem that way, there will be neurotypicals that see it. They'll usually play it up as "weird" or "suspicious" like you said, I've had it a handful of times. It's just how we are, lol.

I think it's unfortunate that he found community in a bunch of incels online, but I can understand why he would be drawn to that despite how smart he is and how his brain ticks. We don't know him personally so there's no telling what his political thoughts are entirely. Man is an enigma in that sense – which also makes sense for being neurodivergent.

With such wealth and an overbearing family, it's easy to understand why he would just want to get away. Find peace outside of everything he'd ever known. I feel the same sometimes.

It also makes sense for his distaste for technology, or at least somewhat of it. We get overstimulated easily and the world was already going haywire and towards something unhopeful, flooding socials and the media in general, before all of this, so I can at least comprehend why he would want to disappear.

Luigi's Reddit posts I feel go more into him as a person outside of silly twitter posts, the way he would randomly info dump about things is a big tism flag for me.

(example, the sunglasses post, lmao. "Fun fact" babes, no one asked x)

I mentioned before how it can feel weird to talk about, but I genuinely do think it's okay to feel that connection, regardless of who it is.

(Btw pls feel free to DM me whenever!! I'd love to hear more on everyone's thoughts on this.)

[brw]

Okay, I've finished every Alpha Flight volume, all the limited series' and the one-shot, and most of the cameo appearances, and can I just say, I have truly no idea what the fuck people are on about when they say that Aurora and Sasquatch's relationship is uniquely awful, or abusive, or incredibly toxic, and I can't tell if it's because I have a uniquely high tolerance for weird and toxic relationship dynamics in comics (I have fun reading a lot of Ant-Man and Wasp comics, I love Vision and the Scarlet Witch, I'm a ReedSue warrior, etc), or if everyone else had Alpha Flight be their first 80s comics, because Sasquatch hasn't done like, anything! And I know she's my favourite, so I'm naturally inclined to be more gentle than most people, but even with that context, I feel like I'm usually pretty good at recognising when my faves do something messed up. I'm a Hank McCoy fan, I know how to criticise a blorbo for war crimes. but Sasquatch doesn't even do that very much until the last 20 issues of the series, and it wasn't Aurora. Because, okay, here are Sasquatch's crimes in Alpha Flight;

Attempted to calm Jeanne Marie down by explaining the relationship between Langkowski and Aurora. In this, the narratior dialogue literally says that Jeanne Marie does not feel the disgust she would expect of herself for learning of her altar's sexual activities, and that's what makes her react like that. It has nothing to do with Sasquatch's actions, and everything to do with Jeanne Marie's complex and negative feelings about her own sexuality, of which Sasquatch was kept in the dark about by Mac until this issue. Alpha Flight V1 #4

I've seen people say that Sasquatch persuing a relationship with Aurora after this fact was wrong, and I can see where they're coming from, but it does feel deeply infantilising, frankly. Would you say that about Betty Ross and her relationship with Bruce and Hulk? What about Marlo and Joe Fixit? Aurora clearly was interested in Sasquatch and was determined in pursuing that relationship, and I don't think Sasquatch is a bad person for returning those feelings and that desire any more than I think like, Janet van Dyne is a bad person for loving Hank still when he was Yellowjacket. This isn't an uncommon dynamic in cape comics, especially in the 80s. I don't know what to tell you. Acting like someone continuing to pursue someone with dissociative identity disorder is an awful person is just a really odd take to me, particularly again with the context that this is not an uncommon plotline in the remit of 80s comics. Is everyone who ever dated Moon Knight getting cancelled now, too? Or is it only women with D.I.D. who are too mentally ill to be capable of relationships and of consent? I'm not denying that the way this was written was ableist, and misogynistic, but acting like Sasquatch is awful for being romantically involved with a woman with D.I.D. while not being incredibly informed on D.I.D. is bizarre to me because you can say that about SO many comic book characters with dissociative identity disorder!

Camouflaged Aurora's x-gene when she asked Sasquatch to change her powers to be no longer reliant on Northstar. I've seen some people act like this entire situation was non-consensual, but no, Aurora went out of her way to ask to be changed to not rely on Northstar's powers with her light ability. Alpha Flight V1 #17

I don't think like, nonconsensual body experimentation is a good thing, but again, this is small potatoes to me. I'd understand it if it was Sasquatch changing Aurora's powers without permission, but the only thing she did was mask the X-gene, and I'd like to remind everyone this is the universe where they canonically have giant genocidal murder robots. Like I'm sorry but I just simply do not think this is the worst thing someone has ever done to their partner in comics! And granted, when Reed did the same thing to Franklin in the most recent FF vs X-Men, I also didn't care and I was on his side, so I might just be built different, but some of you people would not survive reading 70s Avengers comics. Is it a great moment? Of course not, but I think it's an understandable action in the universe where mutant genocides come monthly, and I do not think this holds water as proof Sasquatch is an awful abusive person, particularly when the reason for Aurora wanting to no longer be connected with Northstar came after multiple instances of Northstar assaulting Aurora, purposefully endangering her, slut-shaming her, being very controlling towards her regarding her relationship with Sasquatch as if that was not a choice she was making, and even after when Sasquatch was dead, continuted to be incredibly ableist to both her and the disabled man she was involved with, Roger Bochs. Like, I appreciate and I KNOW that their relationship has grown and has gotten much better, but at this point in time, frankly, Aurora was right to want to be separated from him, I think, because he was not a good brother to her.

And in any case, the mutant gene thing, the actual issue and the actual symbol of non consensual body modification, almost immediately gets forgotten. Writers have since talked about and discuss the way her powers were altered; none of them in the main Alpha Flight series have ever acknowledged her X-Gene being masked, so outside of this one issue, it literally does not come up and is never framed as an issue. I think you could, and I'd be interested if they did, but I do not think altering Aurora's powers WHEN ASKED to distance her from her brother, who at this time, was a distinctly controlling, cruel figure in her life, was a bad thing to do. The sense of ownership over her, the justifiying mutant bigotry, sure, that's messed up, but I've read every single fucking issue after that, and it does not come up again, so you're going to have to try harder to convince me.

And after this, that's sort of it? Like, I'm trying to think of anything else that happens in any of these runs, and nothing's really coming to me. They don't get back together after Sasquatch comes back, and don't get back together for the rest of the run.

I guess there's the bit where Sasquatch helps instituionalise Aurora in that random issue of Wolverine (#173), but like, I'm really sorry, you'll have to forgive me if a random issue of a Frank Tieri comic that only happened to set up Frank Tieri's Weapon X series which is universally hated by Alpha Flight/Aurora fans isn't something I'm gonna sit here and call core characterisation. It happened because Tieri wanted Aurora in that series so she could get sexualised and abused, and to my knowledge he has never written Sasquatch or Aurora before or since his Weapon X series, so again, you'll have to forgive me if this, to me, feels like the equivalent of pulling out Bendis' Avengers Disassembled as a core piece of Wanda Maximoff characterisation. Like, no. That is ridiculous. What are you talking about.

Look, alright, look. I'm aware, as I've repeated, that I have an unnaturally high tolerance for comic book nonsense. I like 60s comics a lot. I read all of Force Works, and Silver Sable and the Wild Pack recently. You think Byrne was weird in Alpha Flight? Try reading his West Coast Avengers. So it makes sense that some people would read these moments, and see them as unforgivable, because they aren't deep in the weeds of what nonsense comic books can be. They haven't sat down and read Avengers #200, one of the most infamously awful comics ever. They haven't followed the trajectory of Hank Pym and Janet van Dyne's relationship up to it's divorce, and afterwards, and seen how misogyny, ableism and saneism all combined in a very odd 15 years of comics. They haven't read fucking Force Works. Or Silver Sable and the Wild Pack. Or Super Soldiers. Or any of the other obsucre, awful comics from the 90s I've been reading. Fine!

But what I don't understand is the volume of people who have read all of Alpha Flight who think these are completely unforgivable, awful actions, when they barely rank a D tier to me in the grand scheme of comic book crimes. Like, okay. In issues #59 and #60 of Marvel Team-Up, Spider-Man teams up with Yellowjacket and Wasp, and over the course of those issues, we learned Hank injected Janet with like, extra Wasp DNA to make her powers stronger while she was sleeping as a surprise anniversay present. And when Janet finds out, she's like, "😊 You're so thoughtful", and you're telling me the worst thing you've ever read is someone agreeing to change someone's powers very slightly to not be reliant on the twin brother she has an incredibly fraught relationship with, a twin brother who purposefully tried to force you into a wild bloodlust to scare his sister so he could be the sole person she trusted??? That's the worst thing you've ever read????And I was under the impression that only weird people who read a lot of comics and are naturally used to this sort of thing read Alpha Flight, but I guess not??

Whatever. I guess I just expected a lot more and a lot worse in the grand scheme of comic books from the way people were talking about them and this relationship, but while I don't like, think these two are good for each other, or should stay together, their relationship at most just seems like regular John Byrne shenanigans, and I've read too many John Byrne comics for that to phase me. Did you guys go from reading slice of life webcomics to Alpha Flight with no in between? Sasquatch doesn't even leave Aurora to die in the Antarctic like Rogue did with Gambit (Uncanny X-Men #350)....

Cw for illness, emotional abuse, animal neglect, misogyny, and implications of me suspecting ideation suicide/attempted murder

Oh my gosh. My stepbrother and his girlfriend are. Where do I start

She's chronically ill. She can't work and she has seizures. The first time I saw the ambulance in my front yard was scary, and there was so many times after that quickly followed.

She and my stepbrother used to live in our basement. They are banned from living in the basement because of how disgusting they left it. Their poor dog was stuck in a cage all day and not given any love, that sweet boy was terrified to go down there once they moved upstairs.

They live in what used to be out playroom, the only thing separating them from the rest of our first floor was a curtain. Hearing how he talks is gross sometimes. He's an Andrew Tate fan, I don't remember how I found out. He works at day and games, watches anime, and sleeps all night. I don't think he's ever washed dishes in this house. I don't think he's ever vacuumed. He's a slob.

He yells at her when frustrated. He's been frustrated a lot. She doesn't talk back, and if she did, he'd only make her feel more worthless.

There was this one time she ran out of medication when he was out on a trip and he didn't tell anyone. I remember asking my sister "I feel like he's trying to kill her." My dad and his mom were pissed. He blamed pharmacies for not letting him get medications—which is definitely a problem—but he didn't tell anyone. He'd let her have seizures and die in the 2 weeks he left her with no medication. I don't think he even got a slap on the wrist.

They vape—all of my step family does—including her. Her, my stepbrother and my stepsister all smoke weed. Her doctor told her to stop both. He tells her to stop both, all the while handing her a vape, letting her do it, encouraging her even. He acts like it's all her but he's letting this happen, he let it happen. It's a risk, it can make her seizures worse. I wonder if one day she wishes she didn't wake up with all the ways she's making her condition worse.

He's pardoned for his own mental issues. He shouldn't be. It's not fair to her to let this go on, but nobody else wants to step up, or even tell him off. Recently he's been comparing whatever she did to wrong him to him cheating on her—its been repetitive, making me wonder if he's confession to or having thoughts about it.

Recently, she's been losing stuff. As he does with every minor inconvenience, he loses his shit. He rants for minutes, hours, all on the same topic of saying he can't fucking stand when she moves anything. She lost her medication—I still wonder if she even wants to keep living—and he ranted. This was more than before. I sat in the bathroom typing this out.

He threatened to put her in a mental hospital. He told her to hurt herself. He did that just now, as I am writing this. He's threatening to shoot himself in the shoulder for her losing the medication. "Do not talk like that," he said. To what, I don't know, her voice was too quiet. "The emotions that you just felt is what I feel everyday when you do that," he said. He's acting like she's out of line. The closest thing I heard to her acting out was her going on the deck because she was crying. "You have no fucking idea what shit goes through my head…you can't comprehend it…being a man in society." He didn't apologize, he rationalized himself. He admitted the only reason he did apologize was because everyone can hear them.

I don't know when they moved in with us, but I think she was around 18, while he was 22? I don't know. I don't know when they started dating. It's weird, she's barely older than my oldest sister and me and my sisters were shocked to find out how young she was. It's disgusting. She completely depends on her and the rest of her family remains anonymous to me, so she's stuck.

This isn't everything. But I needed to write something down.

[all-for-the-game-confessions]

idk if it's mean to say and I don't mean it meanly at all. I think there's a weird culture of trauma dumping in this fandom though.

especially when any kind of discourse comes up, ppl seem to feel the need to 'prove' they can talk on a topic/have more authority than others on a topic by telling stories about how they've been through things the discourse is related to.

like when there was discourse around kevin/jean/riko and the cult thing or whatever. and there were ppl giving their opinions, but also a bunch of ppl chiming in to tell traumatic stories about them being in a cult. and it's not that I don't want ppl to speak about their experiences, but rather, I just think it's crazy that some ppl seen to think its relatively normal to jump into a conversation about fictional ppl with real stories about very triggering subjects with no warning whatsoever.

they also often assume by default that anyone who won't speak openly about going through traumatic shit hasn't been through it. which I don't think is good or fair.

I'm not trying to single ppl out either. it's not all the people who were in a cult or only them, its just the first example I could think of. it happens with basically everything though! from rape to homophobia to being abused by your parents, and so on.

I think the bigger problem which I briefly touched on is that it often comes with the assumption that those who don't speak openly about experiencing these things are assumed to not have experienced them. and ppl who do speak openly about it, will often explicitly make those assumptions.

bringing it back to the cult thing cuz it's the example I started with - I remember somebody would make a post (with admittedly a bad take), and then somebody would respond with their take + the fact that they'd been in a cult & add on a bit at the end being like "you wouldn't write a take like this [the original bad take] if you knew what it was like to be in a cult". and while I understand the frustration of ppl saying stupid or offensive or ignorant stuff, it's also stupid, offensive, and ignorant to make the automatic assumption that because someone's take/opinion on a tough subject differs from yours then that means they haven't been through similar experiences to you. because many ppl can experience the same thing and come out with differing opinions.

I just think it sets a bad precedent. it's also often completely unfair to the person they're saying this stuff to, even if they hadn't experienced that stuff themselves. because it also now means that the person hearing the trauma dumping has to respond with perfect civility, be perfectly calm and understanding, or else they'll be seen as not taking the person's experiences seriously. and while I obviously think you should handle somebody telling you their bad experiences with kindness, understanding, etc, this expectation is a little unfair sometimes because it often expects the listener to be perfectly nice, while the person doing the trauma dumping gets away with not being civil back. like they can throw stuff like "fuck you, you stupid bitch" or whatever into their post, essentially freely insult the other person, but the person hearing it can't do anything similar back without looking like The Asshole.

even if u are perfectly calm & understanding anyway, you can still look like The Bad Person if u continue to even respectfully disagree, becuz the trauma dumping person can just say something like "I experienced x and told you My Opinion and you still disagree 😡". and unless you want to openly admit you've also experienced x, you can't rlly defend urself.

all this to say. I don't think it's good to have this attitude of only being able to speak on things or having authority over others to speak on things if you've experienced said things. becuz on a platform like this, the only way to know if somebody has had those experiences is if they tell you. so it sets this expectation to talk about it. and I think it's normal not to want to talk about the bad shit you've been through with strangers on the Internet for brownie points. additionally. everybody's been through shit. it might not be the same shit as you, but it's important to remember that. we should all be trying to not make bold assumptions about people we don't know just because they think differently to us.

.

[brrdhouse]

ok this is getting LONG so i'm putting it under a readmore —

not what he seems + a tale of two stans

for that very reason, i do not want gideon to be there.

i know i knowww, it could be fun, but i don't want him to get in the way. i imagine he'd get in a fight with stan an episode or two before because of the mounting portal stress making them both antsy, and get dragged out of the picture for a little bit. he'd come back during dd&md though! he'd be in the "this game is for loser nerds" group but sit in the same room just to spend time with his dad. i still don't want him to be super important, so i don't think i'd involve him in the main plot, but he'd be there in the background before shit hits the fan, and he comes back after running errands or something to the family watching the ducktective episode. he could be in the main group, but i want to keep grenda as the main side character here because i love her.

family dynamic

i don't want to take away the dipper and ford scenes, so i'm adding them to the tension.

ford gets back and while he's obviously happy to see his son, he's kind of distant like he is towards stan, just a lot less upset. he also skews more towards involving dipper in his projects, and gideon's conflict for the rest of the season is if he even wants to be in gravity falls anymore if his dad's acting so weird towards him.

yeah, it was 30 years ago, but ford used to tell gideon everything about his studies. and it hurts that it feels like he's being replaced by dipper just because he grew up while ford was gone.

he'd spend more time with mabel, soos, and wendy, and accidentally feed into ford's isolationist worldview as well as the one he's projecting onto dipper.

(also because i feel it vaguely relates, something else goldsixer drew for this that i can't stop thinking about)

society of the blind eye + sock opera (+ into the bunker)

you're right, i wouldn't put gideon in into the bunker.

i would however put him in sock opera and blind eye!

sock opera, i'd give him the same place as everyone else: just generally unaware of what's going on with dipper and bill in this episode. i think he'd clue in when dipper gets possessed because wow that seems pretty familiar, if only you could put your finger on it. this would be the episode that makes him get that much stricter in watching the twins. he doesn't want dipper to end up like ford, and he doesn't want mabel to end up like him.

i'd have him in society of the blind eye big time. he'd get dragged in like soos and wendy, and just be really fucking sad hearing fiddleford talk about himself after being accused. same plot really, just with the added context that he's the anomaly being erased from people's minds and he's kind of pissed about it. ("is that why i have t'reintroduce myself every time i go to th' library? are you serious?!")

gideon gets briefly mentioned in fiddleford's memory tapes, but it's a blink-and-you-miss-it reference to "a visiting researcher and his son," which dipper obsesses over. (psst.. here's a quick thing for this btw..)

the last mabelcorn

again, gideon would choose to spend more time with the girls. he doesn't dislike dipper or anything, he just can't handle being around ford right now.

he comes along for the same reason wendy does, to keep an eye on the kids, but he also knows unicorns exist because he vaguely remembers seeing them as a kid, so he's not as cynical as she is about it. he's not 100% around for her goodness montage because i think it's funny for him to be like "wendy, i have t'go buy smokes, you're in charge for now." (🐦 <- also an older gideon smoker truther, especially in this au because he's not suffering from the amulet / a chronic illness metaphor to me)

he'd be there when mabel gets told she's a bad person and stick with her to comfort her while the other girls make their plan, and helps them take down the unicorns when it comes to it.

roadside attraction

i'm sorry i'm killing roadside attraction.

not entirely, but i'm making the dipper plot less important because i hate it. he'd still flirt awfully with girls and candy would still have a crush on him, but he wouldn't get ambushed, he'd just say something dumb and upset candy, and it'd end the same way.

stan would still get kidnapped because i like him being tied up. next question.

i'd replace the dipper plot with a ford and gideon plot back at the shack. i think it'd be fun to have them kind of stepping around each other and thinking "well that's not how i remember you acting" before they realize they're being dumb and apologize to each other. it's stilted and awkward and not quite bridging the gap yet, but it's a start.

weirdmageddon

if this takes a day or two to get posted, this is why. weirdmageddon in AUs, my worst enemy...

i think i want weirdmageddon to go SIMILARLY. not exactly the same obviously, but i think it'd be fun to still have gideon and the bikers be minor obstacles, only instead of them having the key and attacking dipper and wendy (iirc.. i haven't watched weirdmageddon in a while), those two find the key another way and gideon's just still really strict and doesn't want them to run into the action. they have a heart-to-heart along the lines of "you can't stop us from trying even if it ends up bad and you have to stop being a control freak about it" and he lets them go.

because he has less contact with bill, i don't think he'd get captured the same way, i think he'd either go back to the shack and help there OR stay on the outside and end up back at the fearamid somehow. pretty much every thing afterward would be the same, and then he'd regroup with the rest of the family after it all clears up. i think it'd be cute to have him talking stan through a lot of the last 30 years because he's the only other person who remembers them, and it'd be a healing/bonding moment for both of them 😊 i love family

okay i THINK that's all. i THINK. this took me a few days to think on lol

bad reality AU where aang fails to successfully energybend ozai and this somehow leads to him distorting reality and creating a version of it where he already rules the entire world as the phoenix king. the spirits can't let this happen but the avatar is Unavailable at the moment so they just have to turn to their next best (and only) option-

-Zuko.

the last thing Zuko remembers, he was fighting Azula. now he's definitely not in the courtyard of the Fire Nation palace. he has no idea where he is, actually but he's pretty sure the figures surrounding him are all very important and powerful spirits. great. what did he fuck up this time?

turns out this isn't because of his fuck-up (astonishing) but because they need him to enter ozai's new reality and free the avatar from his control. because energybending is apparently a thing, and aang tried it and failed. which is a lot to take in. he asks the spirits why they'd choose him, and the ones with faces just sort of awkwardly look at each other until one of them admits well. your father sort of... erased you from his reality?

zuko: ...yeah. that tracks.

it's great for the spirits because it means there's a gap in the new reality they can just slip zuko right in. in order to set things right, he'll need to find his friends- ozai has surely scattered them all, and they likely won't remember anything, but we have preserved shards of their consciousness. if you can get them to trust you, you can return them and they can aid you in your quest.

they have also hidden a piece of aang's consciousness among the shards. if they are able to reunite, they should be able to save the avatar's spirit as well, but they must all be together for it to work. but be warned- if a year should pass, then the new reality will become permanent and he will gradually cease to exist.

also. we are very sorry. we can only return you to where you were in the previous reality.

zuko: wh-

(zuko spawns in the fire nation courtyard, in the middle of a ceremony lead by Fire Lord Azula, attended by her father, Phoenix King Ozai)

zuko: oh.

May I ask what were the best transformers media you ever saw/read?

Well Transformers Prime, Transformers 1986 and IDW comics are having the first place that’s for sure

And then the second place is kind of shared by Fall of Cybertron, Exodus, Prime wars trilogy, Robots in disguise(2001) and Transformers One.

The third place goes to G1, Animated, Earthspark, Armada, War for Cybertron Netflix series, Aligned Robots in disguise, Bumblebee, Rise of the Beasts and Cyberverse because I only liked some little parts of them.

And then I also saw some of the Bay movies, Victory and Headmasters and didn’t like them at all.

Separate first place for J-Decker. It is not exactly Transformers but it is a show about giant robots and I loved it

what's fun about shipping Tim with Dick, Jason, or Damian is he has, at some point, hallucinated all of them to comfort himself. even when he doesn't like them or particularly get along with them, he has to imagine/hallucinate them just so he has the power to go on. Tim's concepts of the Robin mantle and what it should be is so fun, because he respects the others through the Robin mantle. Tim worships Dick because he was the first Robin. he wouldn't be Robin if Jason hadn't died in the mantle. and a lot of his frustration with Damian is he feels Damian isn't honoring the mantle correctly. when you ship Tim with the other Robins you can't divorce their identities as Robin from it because Tim will always see them as a Robin first and that's so fun and fucked up. like.

Tim perceiving Dick as *Robin* cheering him on, not Nightwing, which is the version of Dick that Tim actually knows? that's just. wild of him. he will always view Dick as Robin first, his personal hero but also the original of the legacy. his love for Dick is shaped by that.

and then of course, even when he's hallucinating/imagining Jason cheering him on, it's *still* through the lense of being reminded how Jason failed? subconsciously believing that Jason got himself killed because of his actions, and that being a lesson for Tim to learn from? Jason isn't a person to Tim, he's a moral lesson about how to be Robin. any potential idolization he could have of Jason isn't because he loves Jason, it's because of the lessons Jason's death taught him.

and then, even though him hallucinating TIm is from the New-52, which makes characterization all kinds of questionable, i do think it makes sense for TIm to hallucinate/imagine Damian after Damian's death in an attempt to cope with it.

teen titans (2011) #18

to an extend, he sees Damian's death as in part his own fault. and even hating Damian, Tim needs the comfort from this to cope with Damian being gone. he's angry that Damian even was Robin, and has to learn something from Damian's death and how it impacts the Robin mantle, and teenage heroes as a whole. like, Tim can pretend he hates Damian all he wants, even getting taunted by the image of Damian, but there's still an underlying love to their relationship.

i think that's just the fun of shipping Tim with any of them. you will never divorce Tim's views of them from the Robin mantle and how fucking Unwell he is about anyone else who's been Robin before or after him, to the point he has to hallucinate them comforting him when he's at his lowest. it's always going to be a little unhealthy, a little toxic, and driven by Tim's relationship with being Robin as well. i need more Tim being weird about Robin in these ships.

ill probably delete this in a minute but ive just been fuckin boggled by what ive seen across tumblr in the last few days in particular. its why i havent really been around. like holy fucking shit, its really like some of yall just dont want a chunk of the trans community to exist. like some of yall are thisclose to saying it verbatum. way too many already have. 'shut up sit down be quiet and smile for us' type shit, gee where have i heard that before. oh yeah my entire life cause i was forcefully gendered as someones daughter. shock horror i know. you might be surprised to remember and/or learn that very few trans folks know theyre trans before we're 5, or even 10, and that that gendered experience stays with all of us in both/either small or large ways. either bc we literally dont have a solid identity yet (bc we're very small children), dont have the words, we're repressing it out of fear from how others will treat us, we're actually enjoying or enjoyed being another gender in our childhood, or we just genuinely didnt fuckin know until shit lined up later in life. weird isnt it that transmascs dont pop out as 6'1 brick shithouse cis men when we're born so yall know for certain that we're confused lost girls/women oops i mean big dangerous scary men. its almost like we're transgender too. none of yall actually know what intersectionality is or means

being a fan of false/ren/both atm is kinda weird and surreal in these times because you have to carefully tread around in your mind to avoid thinking about upsetting things (which consist of like 50% of the total stuff in your head) and you have to rewire your longtime neural pathways but it’s necessary and doable lol
