#this is a callout to my mom - and thats only one thing she did

[theprodigypenguin]

People be disliking Dragon because he left Luffy on Dawn Island then immediately turn around and start frothing at the mouth for characters who are truly degenerate and evil and tried to kill Luffy manymany times.

ARE U GUYS SERIOUSLY STILL OPENING A ZINE AFTER THE CALLOUT 😭?!?!

Here is my response to whats going on regarding our zine and our mod. Next time, please be more calm if you're going to ask me about this more.

What Kallie did in regards to the Hoco situation was wrong and I dont agree with what she said. It was, in my opinion, pretty dumb, but I think Kallie also recognized that and doesnt agree with what she said anymore (read her apology). Which also, Kallie DID apologize, though not directly to Hoco, but Hoco saw it on twitter. They don't have to accept her apology, but they, and everyone else who cares, can't say that she didn't say anything and that shes avoiding responsibility. I wouldnt let Kallie work on this zine if I thought she was a danger to people. Also just to clarify, she is NOT the head mod anymore, Mod Honey is. It was Honey's choice to continue the zine.

In regards to anything to do with Galaxia and their friend group, we have been trying to ignore and get over that shit for years. But they keep saying things and setting off more drama for people to get into that have nothing to do with it. I was there when it started, I used to be friends with Galaxia and supported them but I ultimately chose to side with Kallie because what she went through was terrible. I dont hate Galaxia, but them trying to put themselves in every spot of fandom and be the "fandom mom" is not okay to me.

Yes Kallie made a callout post of Galaxia and co, but that was because she was ASKED to by other people who heard her out. And also, no, she didn't publicly smear Galaxia's name all over the place, Kallie only told people about it in private when, again, she was asked about it. There's nothing wrong with that.

If you dont want to support the zine, thats fine. No one is forcing you to. It is a NON PROFIT zine, being made just for fun. We had no issues with the last one, everyone who contributed was kind and chill and our server made for the zine was calm and cool.

24, 14, and 6 for the writing asks!!

6. What character do I have the most fun writing?

oh man this is a toughhhhhh one. i think my favorite thing i’ve gotten to write is olivia on the edible because we never get to see her just unhinged (literally every other fic i write is just so introspective bc she’s such a thiiiiiinker)

but overall character? it depends. i absolutely love writing flirty elliot, like xmas episode style bc that man is a frat boy who just really wants to makeout with olivia

olivia is great to write when im having a day because i feel similar to her character (or at least my version of her) so i get to spend the day processing her thoughts and it’s kind of cathartic

currently have a WIP thats a loooooong oneshot about noah and he’s fun to write as a lil sweetie

ig what i’m saying is each fic i have a diff fave to focus on depending on the story? if it’s happy, then it’s usually elliot bc i like him being all touchy and lovey towards olivia — if it’s angsty, i love me some olivia has to think about this and her “do i love elliot idk if i’m ready for this but he looks at me like that and i just wish he’d talk to me” phases.

guess i have no faves lmfao

14. At what point in writing do you come up with a title?

oooooohhhh boy. right as i’m about to publish, and sometimes it’s the reason i don’t post right away lol

35 steps, a delectable disaster, trapped in an elevator, at her door, come home with me, three strikes, damaging the sun, here at the park… all popped in my head before clicking post! i don’t really have a method, just try to pick out something important in the fic that is the overall takeaway or theme

so 35 steps was a callout to the quote “35. It would take 35 steps for him to be in his (he likes to call it their) bedroom, open up the drawer where he kept all his gym clothes, find the red shirt that was torn, unravel it, and reveal the hidden ring he knew she did not want (yet).”

but something like “delectable disaster” is just fun because olivia is a flirty, but mess high lol

come home with me was SO hard to name for no reason (it was almost named clementine? but that’s being used for a oneshot i’m writing now!) — in my google docs it was called “kissy kissy” and trapped in an elevator was called “mom and dad hotbox their hearts rip”

so moral of the story, i just use a goofy name, write it until i know exactly what i want the reader to feel or remember about it, then try my best to make it fun lol

24. Would you say your writing has changed over time?

YUPPPPPPP. gd every single fic i change. that’s why fanfic is here! (well for some people)

it’s a great avenue for me to learn my voice and play around. fuck, i’m a script writer so the dialogue only ones are my faves but they’re hard fics to be read by people bc it’s such a different format. i literally think in forms of acting, so when it gets to narrative i legit have to write something, sit on it, reread it, fix it, and keep changing it until the picture in my head is painted in the words i feel the action as.

its fucking hard ngl. some people have this beautiful ability to describe things but it takes me time. i’m a visual person. i wish i could hook up a wire to my brain to depict things sometimes, bc i’ve legit had to act out the scene in my room to figure out how tf two people hold each other and a baseball bat lol

i love writing fanfiction, and i hope my writing gets stronger with each new fic. i never would say i was a bad writer, but i think everyone can improve!!

also not to get preachy, but im in a slump rn with writing and i need to hear this — write what’s ready to write and the rest will follow!! just get it down and you can play with it when you’re ready to!!

ask me anything (i have four WIPs and idk what to do with em lol)

[spnshameblog]

one of the funniest things that has ever happened to me on here was when i joined this smaller fandom. so i didnt really make an effort to get to know people in that fandom and i basically made a sideblog to keep the stuff separate from my main bc i was expecting it to be a fixation i was going to get over within a few weeks/months.

so anyways i had noticed some weird/toxic behaviours in the fandom and i saw a few smaller callout posts about that, but i wasnt keeping track of names and it wasnt my main fandom so i didnt really pay it any mind until something really fucky happened and i got upset bc nobody called it out? so i made one really angry post about how fucked up that behaviour was and within hours i had gained hundreds of followers, people thanking me for speaking up, people making their own posts about the situation etc etc. i had basically started a huge fight in a fandom i wasnt even really in

but thats not the funny thing. after my post really gained momentum i got messaged by this one blogger who was CONVINCED i was calling out her, specifically. and i literally did not know who that person was. i told her so, but she didnt believe me, kept insisting i was vagueing her in the post. it felt like she was almost more pissed off by the fact that i "claimed" to not know her than by my callout post. and i just went 'babe i didnt know who you were up until now, but if you feel called out by the post, it might as well have been about you, so bye' and i blocked her and ended the conversation.

so anyways i kept gaining followers, to the point where that sideblog had nearly as much followers as my main (it still has more than this blog, which is the one i actually use most often lol) and i looked through some of the notes and people kept theorising who i was vagueing and kept throwing around names, but the name of the girl came up most often. apparently that girl had been the most popular blogger in the fandom since forever and people had been gassing her up and defending her behaviour this entire time and thats why she couldnt accept the fact that i literally didnt know who she was.

i left the fandom soon after that bc it had become apparent just how many people in the fandom were willing to protect super toxic people and i really only spent like two months there. and in that two months i managed to contribute to basically splitting the fandom in half, got harrassed by a fandom mom with an inflated ego, landed on multiple public blocklists and gained almost as many followers as i had in the decade ive had my main blog. oh and someone threatened to leak my ip address lmao. all that for what was basically the fandom equivalent of a sidequest lmao.

[tumblunni]

Fuckinghell i got to That Part in USUM and it was even worse than i expected

Kfuckinh fuck i alreadyhated lusamine cos i hadan abusivemum like that in real life but this time i wanted to fucking stab her actual eyes out with my thumbs! How can a bad writing flub trigger such a huge ass panic attack in me!! Am i really that pathetic!! God im just sitting with my face in a fan cos im overheated as fuck i was all fight or flight mode just about hitting the A button and knowing the next scene i get will be Somehow Lusamine Was Right, in the place of the execellent callout scene lillie got in the original. So much actual detailed analysis of child abuse and now NOPE ITS OKAYMOMMY HURT U FOR A GOOD CAUSE

And what i hate so much is that they didmt even completely rewrite it! This isnt even an 'alternate universe story' where lusamine was a good mom, which would already be problematic in context but at least there'd be an excuse for it. Nah instead they just left in all the foreshadowing leading up to her being abusive and all the scenes of her being a fucl but just at the last second its ok cos something something necrozma.

Things that are still canon in this universe:

lillie and gladion ran away from their mother and nearly died on the streets and all that

Lusamine still controlled how much they acted and looked and etc that lillie has anxiety over picking her own damn clothes in a shop (and gladion mentions the same in an optional dialogue that also wasnt removed)

"Oh no its a big reveal that aether foundation is evil and working with team skull and they kidnapped lillie and now u have to fight thru an entire foundation full of evil murderous adults and also faba the fuckmeister supreme"

Lusamine wants to murder cosmog to open an ultra wormhole and laughs about it

Lusamine has an entire fuckin secret room full of pokemon corpses preserved in ice so they'll 'stay beautiful and never disobey'

Lusamine tells her kids theyre disgusting for disobeying her and she doesnt love them and never did and also they are selfish cunts for daring to want to be not abused

Then she fuckin attacks them, and you fight

Fuckin ALL THEY CHANGED was that at the end shes like 'but i do it cos necrozma bad and i was really save world'. And the writers seem to think that this somehow justifies her actions rather than just making her an equally evil equally abusive person who just has a dumb knight templar reason for why she thinks she's in the right. Like maybe you could say this would make her more redeemable in the end, i guess?? Like if she actually had a proper redemption plotline you could use this as a springboard to jump off in order to create that plotline. That she was once good and her evilness is a very specific sort of 'murder and hate is justified because my purpose is so important' kind of thing, which should honestly have led to her personality being entirely different and written entirely different. But you still actually have to write a redemption route! Shes not just suddenly good because she has a motive for being evil! And shes not even as redeemable as the other villain bosses, if we only hear about her 'good reason' AFTER we see her do everything evil! And her evil is so much more personal than the other bosses! Like maxie and archie were still likeable eveb before their VERY EXTENSIVE AND WELL WRITTEN redemption plot, because their evil plot was abstract and nonsensical ('destroy world') rather than actual detailed real life crimes to characters we care about. Abd very manipulative and deliberate ones! Maxie and Archie had it established very early on that they THOUGHT what they weredoing would improve the worls even if it was obvious they would actually destroy it. Lusamine didnt abuse her kids accidentally or because of a mistake, the only way she thought she was doing the right thing is that she thought her kids were ungrateful evil fucks who deserved being hurt because they MERELY WOULDNT OBEY HER EVERY WHIM! And we see this from the perspective of the kids who are very much just goddamn innocent kids and very much show actual realistic ptsd symptoms and relateable stories of abuse. So yeah lusamine already starts at a higher tier of villainy that would require more redemption than archie and maxie, even if you can technically say 'maybe her plan to beat necrozma via pet murder and child abuse might actually work'. (Or, in the origonal, that technically her plan was just to fuck off to another dimension of obedient mindless slave jellyfish and never come back, which is technically less wprld damaging than the hoenn guys.)

And just MANNNN what i really hate is that they didnt remove anything except like.. The parts where you sympathise with the kids. I feel like the scene of lillie at the clothes shop early on and the dramatic break in to aether paradise were just left in out of laziness more than anything. Like theres a lot of stuff that seems 'oh we have to do that cos thats how it went last time, but lets half ass it and rewrite the dialogue shorter and rush to my New Bits'. I feel like if someone played this first before sun and moon then half of the plot wouldnt make sense! But why did they choose to leave in just enough that it made lusamine still look like a monster, if she never gets her comeuppance!!!

And man i really fucking hate how they rewrote lillie and gladion during the big plot swrrve into LUSMINE HAD GUD REASONS 2 DO THE THING. Lillie says barely anything and gladion is suddenly all 'please stop because I CANT LOSEYOU ASWELL AS DAD, MOM' not fuckin please stop because you are murdering nebby and you just told me you dont love me. Andthen hebegs her to take him with her to fight necrozma becauseits type null's destiny to be a beast killer?? When just five seconds ago hehad unchanged dialogue about how he saved type null becauze he saw it was born and raised to be what its 'parent' wanted it to be, just like how lusamine abusively raised him. Like fuckin entire story about him escaping to be himself and give this lil frankendog a chance at a real normal life, just WHOOOSH right over the new writer's head...

And then THE FUCKIN WORST BIT is that they kept the same scene of lillie sleeping in lusamine's bed but changed all the dialogue to just 'i'll sleep here' *scene ends* rather than 'i remember when i used to sleep in her bed after nightmares when i was like five and thats the last time i can remember that it felt like she actually loved us, i need to sleep here again to say goodbye and steel myself to fight to save the world next time we see her'

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha nuance what is that complexity who is she never heard of her

Fuck that scene was so relateable cos thats literally what i did the day before i ran away from home.fuck you for removing it.

Fuck this game really is like a weirdass rom hack some other guy did of a game he didnt understand. It at least makes me feel better to know it was directed by a different team and isnt considered the 'final full version' like platinum and emerald and stuff. I felt practically gaslit when i was tryong to reconcile the idea someone could write a complex analysis of child abuse and then unwrite it as if it was never important. Was it never really intended to be abuse at all and i was just imagining it?? But nah no its just someone else handling the expansion pack for a game and turning it into an 'alternative story' with his different lame motiveless Bad Legendary villain cos somehow he didnt think the original was good enough. Fuck, it was the most emotional most terrifying villain boss of all time, fuckin geez what is wrong with you!

GUZMAAAA WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUUU

oh yeh did i mention that also Still Exists but the npc thats implied to be his abusive dad has his dialogue slightly rewritten to be 'my kid ran away on a pikemon journey and beat me' not 'i beat my kid but he beat me back'

God fuck u fuck this fuck EVERYTHING what goddamn motives do you have for removing a goddamn How To Spot Child Abuse manual for kids in game form. THIS ENTIRE PLOT WAS SO IMPORTANT IF I SAW THIS AS A KID I WOULDNT HAVE TRIED TO KILL MYSELF

gahhhahahahhhhh

[smallestdogswilldie]

if you havnt had a callout post What right do you have here. Honestly we are all Have callout post once .i had one calling me abusive because i would take walks and not text or call to my (then) gf for all of 25 minutes and by the time i was home she was threatening to kill herselfand JESUS i feel so bad for her but god like chill!!!!! Fuck i couldnt wven DO anything without her teling me she was worried i hated her guts and that she was going to take a bunch of xanax and then drink jesus fuck i was only 15 how did you expect me to HANDLE that type of shit!!! no one should constantly be threatened with shit like that Like i had to fake naps!!!!! in order to just like go eat dinner with my mom! Fuck thats why i kinda hate the culture on tumblr because she was the epitome of what the whole community emulated as a "loving" and "sweet" person and then when i finally had enough courage to break it off with her(because i literally could not TAKE it anymore) she used that as an opportunity to try and ruin my life somehow by making a callout post trying SOOOOO hard to dissect my breakup text i sent to her (in which you can literally tell im TERRIFIED of sayingthe wrong words in fear she might take pills and drink and try to kill herself if i so much as took a walk and now LET ALONE break up with her) Jesus. Itwas such a stressful thing for me it wasnt even enjoyable anymore i just felt like a babysitter and GUYS im literally borderline too i KNOW what its like to be ina codependent relationship and what its like to have a fp and its rough!! but GOD this is not ok and will mever be ok. Every waking moment i wasnt reaffirming her i wasnt lying about how i loved her she was just threatening to kill herself or would just tell me how i was going to leave her! if i didnt talk to her on the phone or on a skype video call for like at least like SEVEN HOURS daily she would freak the fuck out. it actually got to the point where it DID start pushing me away and i DID start falling out of love and it was so stressful because i couldnt tell her i felt that way, because then she would kill herself probably! now just imagine how many paragraphs i had to type to her justifying why i wanted to break up, carefully sidestepping and avoiding all the wrong words to set her off because you know what? i felt like, that if i didnt, i would be responsible for her taking her life . Just because it was a lesbian relationship doesnt mean it cant be TOXIC like this. it was extremely emotionally demanding and taxing. and the notion that its only straight couples with this problem(even tho yea they probably make up 70% of all situations like this) is fucking rediculous. Please EVERYONE regardless needs to know that this is extremely unhealthy and it can happen. to anyone in any type of relationship. it was ruining my summer and suffocating my social life and i didnt leave my house for weeks at a time because i had to be Nurturing and Tending to my girlfriend and i hardly ever got personal time, and when i did she spent it texting me incessantly about how she hated herself and how she was a bad gf and just wanted to kill herself. its sad and i hope shes better wherever she is today but man you just CANNT do that shit!!!!
