DISCLAIMER. I AM NOT AN “ANTI”. I THINK BOTH SIDES OF THE ANTI AND PROSHIP DISCOURSE HAVE ISSUES AND I DONT WANT TO ASSOCIATE WITH THAT SHIT.

been thinking abt this lately but I think a lot of ppl need to hear that u can be anti censorship/harassment/purity culture and still not be comfortable with proshippers. I’ve gotten asks before being like “you can’t hate proshippers AND censorship. You being for free speech and uncensored media and kink expression shit means you’re proship” and… no?? There’s a difference between me not wanting books burned and children harassed off of the internet and me blocking a 30 year old white woman who draws noncon incest nsfw of children from a cartoon aimed at 10 year olds?? like, your childxadult abuse kink bluey fanfiction out there for any random kid to stumble across is not some revolutionary empowering “art disturbs the comfortable” shit, it’s just kinda gross (and probably against the law) and I think I have the right to want to block you. It probably hurts all the causes you say you’re so supportive of, too. Most of that “uncomfortable art” proshippers rally around does NOT glorify dark shit, which is the difference between what proshippers create and what dark fiction usually is. Also, don’t kill me for saying this but it’s not a good coping mechanism, either. You’re putting yourself and others in danger and rationalizing your abuse. I genuinely hope you get better and overcome your trauma but making proship content will only set you back. Ask anyone.

TLDR no matter how much you preach that “proship” only means anti harassment and the support of media that makes others uncomfortable, it won’t change the fact that nasty people use it as a label to gather around and do nasty things. I wish that wasn’t the case, but sadly it is.

anyways end ramble. idk I was just thinkin. I’m probably gonna get deranged anon hate for this but whatever, just my opinion. feel free to disagree and/or block. DONT FUCKING TRY TO DEBATE ME THOUGH. I don’t want to hear your asinine takes on why incest and pedophillia are okay as long as they’re fictional. As proshippers like to say, don’t like don’t engage.

random 3 am Malevolent thought about exactly how John has Arthur’s eyes

we know that John doesn’t actually control Arthur’s eyes; the Butcher asking him what’s wrong with his eyes. his pupils don’t focus on anything. so if John doesn’t actually possess Arthur’s eyes, how does he see what Arthur sees?

he controls Arthur’s occipital lobe. which would also be why Arthur doesn’t have spacial awareness on his own; i.e. when he ran into the dock early in the series. as when theres something wrong with the eyes themselves, the brain can still process objects, because their occipital lobe is still in tact. however if there is damage to the occipital lobe, it can be lost. if John controls Arthur’s though, he would lose that too. which we see in the series

I know it’s supernatural and it might be silly to explain exactly how these things work but my brain brought it up and I had to express it cause humans are weird, and brains are weird, and John controlling an actual full part of Arthur’s brain I feel in a way adds to the horror of it. like a fucked up puppeteer. not controlling everything, but having just enough control to be vital for their survival. while yes Arthur could, in normal circumstances, survive on his own, obviously, as blind people exist, would he be able to survive the abnormal shit he lands himself in? likely not

OH MY GOD THE LACK OF SPACIAL AWARENESS WOULD ALSO EXPLAIN WHY HE FALLS INTO HOLES SO OFTEN

So the system gives out coolness points at (What I'm guessing) is the end of the month.

This is great and all, especially if you imagine it happening in the middle of the night and it each individual message instead of compliling all of them. So just every last night of a mouth he's just laying there as they ding off

I feel like Binghe definitely worries about this at first but Shen Qingqiu probably (like the little liar he is (affectionate)) says it's just a ritual from his hometown. That's how he explains most of his weird behavior. Of course, Luo Binghe, being the good husband he is decids to do this tradition with sqq. It sort of becomes a little tradition of their own that sqq looks forward to, just some time where they can sit together and enjoy each other's company without worrying about their responsibilities. Sqq has long learned how to tune out the system by the time it becomes a established thing between them but then it's less about the system and more about spending time with his husband

quinlan, full on staring at cody as the commander sat chewing on dry oats beside obi-wan, tapping away at his datapad: why the oats.

obi-wan, fondly: he likes them that way.

quinlan: seriously?

cody, nonchalantly: it's efficient.

quinlan: ugh, does foxy do this?

cody: no.

quinlan: good.

cody: ..but he does have a caffeine addiction, im sure you've noticed it. i would think that is more concerning. he practically inhales it.

obi-wan, humming in agreement as though he doesn't drink an abnormal amount of tea when he has the time: cody is quite right.

quin: DRY oats. obes that's..

cody, flatly: at least i'm not like skywalker.

obi-wan, shuddering, squeezing cody's now oat-free hand: thankfully. and please.. do refrain from having an appetite for bugs, if possible.

cody, raising an eyebrow, just pressing a soft kiss to obi-wan's cheek.

quinlan, still just stood in front of them: wtf.

love the idea of innocent kisses between sam and dean. they start as just dean giving sam a quick forehead kiss after a hunt and they've had a few beers.

then sam's kissing dean on the cheek before he heads out to get groceries, and sam doesn't even think about it, just that it's reassuring for the both of them.

and then eventually sam gets hurt on a hunt and when dean realizes he's okay and not going to die, he leans in and presses one right in the center of sam's pout. it's only a peck, and it stuns the both of them, but neither say anything about it on the way baack to the bunker.

soon enough, sam's giving dean good morning kisses in the kitchen,, they do it to say goodnight, after a close call on a hunt, when one gets back from being out.

it becomes the new normal for them. they don't even do anything else, nothing past pecks, but they don't need anything else.

all they need is each other, and if they want to reassure themselves that the other is still alive and breathing and with them, then there's no harm.

bruce: i want to consume you like people consume media, i want to understand why you breathe the way you do, why the space between your steps is what it is, the why behind every minuscule movement of every muscle in your body. i want to know you more than i could ever truly know anything

hal: Okay

[number-one-siffrin-fan]

I have a headcanon (I don't actually know if this has been talked about within canon so :p) that siffrin was significantly stronger than the rest of the party before losing their eye and after was on about their level, this is why he's an equally destructive force at the beginning of the game and how he save mira and isa, plus it explains why the party relies on them so much, they put him in charge of navigation, leading fights, checking for traps, finding useful items, all of that because the party is just used to relying on his strength.

ANYWAY, that run on sentence is to say I want to see siffrin when they first realized that losing an eye made them weaker and how he reacted the first time he couldn't do something or needed to be saved, I want to see him feel like he needs to take on more to compensate for losing his eye and to treat it like a failure just fswgggegydc

Say things about gelphie for my entertainment/lh

Omg, I haven’t gotten an ask on here in damn near 5 years.

I felt that there was a real emphasis on emotional intelligence throughout the movie. Elphaba is always too aware of everything she’s feeling and everything she’s causing at all times, whereas Galinda experiences things through a very abstract lense. Hence why this theme of Elphaba being too aware? and Galinda not being aware enough.

And this is why I think Galinda finds Elphaba so bizarre, and from the moment they meet she becomes obsessed. Ariana plays it as if Galinda was studying Elphaba; she’s constantly looking and analyzing, and when she gets past that barrier of jealousy, she’s mesmerized. It’s why I love the ballroom scene; obviously there’s the intimacy of it all, but there’s also the conflict of this girl who is everything you want to be by being both nothing like you, and so much like you. Galinda realizes how much Elphaba cares about what others think in this moment, but she’s struck by how different Elphaba reacts. That rawness and vulnerability she carries is cathartic because it’s something that is absent from Galinda’s life, both from what she shows others, and what others show her. She’s literally never going to find that freedom anywhere else.

It’s also why I found One Short Day to be so heartbreaking in the movie; in this moment, Elphaba doesn’t need to be overwhelmed by all the things that pour out of her, and Galinda is able to actually just not care and let herself do things. They both get a day without restraints.

So I saw a video of a fox getting scritches

[leavemebetosleep]

Alright here's a short version of how I'd fix Bride of Discord. As a sort of mental editing exercise.

While not really a good fic for a lot of reasons, Bride of Discord actually has a lot of potential as a story. There's a lot of great imagery, and it has a lot of fic tropes I like and are fun to read. I actually would probably change less than some people would. (If your "rewrite" doesn't keep any of the original anything, it's not actually a rewrite babes)

It's just that a lot of stuff in it is maybe played from the wrong angle.

Also there's no saving the Applejack/Spike thing. That's just gross. I think you could keep a similar subplot, just change it so AJ's crushing on someone else. I like AppleDash, but RariJack would probably work the best here. Maybe in this version she's afraid to confess bc she thinks Rarity is straight since she's so femme.

As for the main couple, I think you could actually make the demanding a wife thing work, just have it play out differently.

Like, Discord is old. He spent a lot of time as a statue, and might not be up to date on modern society. Maybe instead of it being a VERY creepy request that screams "sex slavery" make his request explicitly a somewhat less creepy political marriage.

That was common back in his day, and he IS trying to make a peace treaty with Twilight. Being married to one of her people is a show of good faith, that she won't go back on her word, and he won't go back on his, as well as metaphorically uniting their kingdoms.

He doesn't care who it is, because he's not intending to fall in love with them. At best they're gonna be an extended house guest.

They can even point out that's dated and weird, but he can also counter he doesn't know how else to get a proper show of trust. He doesn't trust them with his own safety, but he does trust they won't go after one of their own.

That could also play into why he's so insistent they get married already. Fluttershy trying to avoid the marriage once she's in his kingdom makes it feel like he's being set up, and like the treaty is tenuous. Or maybe he's even suspicious that she's avoiding because the ponies don't plan to stick to their deal.

That could even factor int the climax, but I'll get there.*

Discord can be lonely, and he can still also be a little desperate for companionship, but I don't think that should be his reason for the marriage. Otherwise he could've just asked for a companion, not a wife. Plus, I feel like per-reformation Discord would be in denial about being lonely. I think he'd only start to realize how much he's been missing out on until AFTER he's gotten to know Flutters.

*So in the climax, Fluttershy declares she doesn't love him bc her friends are badgering her, and he gets creepy possessive and tries to hypnotize her and there's a fight and what-not.

Yeah, instead of that what if it's his paranoia that she's avoiding getting married because they plan to betray him coming to a head?

He hears Fluttershy say something to her friends that out of context sounds like they're going to blast him back into stone after all. So he's think she's a traitor who played him for a fool.

I'd nix the hypnotism, just have him and the six fight it out, and then he kicks everyone out before Fluttershy can explain because he's heartbroken and doesn't want anyone to see.

Lot of minor fixes I'd throw in too, cutting out plot threads that go nowhere. Less heteronormativity. Fixing a LOT of OOC-ness. A LOT.

Oh and I'd change Discord's backstory too. The Megamind rip off thing is meh, and I think Discord's a character you could do a lot more interesting things with that that.

As for Fluttershy, a huge problem I have with this fic is she lacks real agency. I want her to choose to go with Discord, not out of the weird sense of feeling she has to sacrifice herself. (It comes off, for lack of a better word, suicidal.)

Maybe instead, she chooses to go because despite her shyness, she's bold when it matters. She will stand up to him. She's not going to be afraid of him anymore. She's gonna tame him like every other wild animal she's had to deal with, and save her home in the process. She's going to come back. He can't keep her there if she really decided to leave.

Have her be the Fluttershy who tried and failed to use her stare on him.

Also, in the original I never at any point felt like she fell in love with him. Just that she gave up resisting his advances. She's always wary and hesitant to do anything with him. That's fine for the beginning of their relationship, but for this to be a good love story that has to change at some point.

Where's the moment she realizes she finds him a little attractive actually? He's weird looking, but he's so confident and funny and fun and that's really appealing. Where's the part where she's having fun and forgets she's a prisoner? Where's the real bonding? Setting boundaries?

Maybe she convinced Discord to let her friends visit, not because she's marrying him already, but because she convinces him to try to make other friends. And he does it, because he loves her already at this point. And she thinks if he and her friends could get along, they could work thing out. Maybe she was hoping things would go well so she could tell him she wanted to marry him after all.

Maybe she really did want her friends at her wedding, but also to be able to have her parents, her brother.

This last bit has nothing to do with the author's writing. This fic was originally written before the show ended, and we got a lot of lore afterwards she couldn't have known about. That's not her fault she couldn't see the future. But just for my sanity, I'd add in more cannon lore.

And uh. I guess that's all got with what I remember of it. Yeah.

Writing prompt: Danny failed science and Temperature affects the weather!!!

So when a cold front meets a warm front is can cause a storm, sometimes they can become extremely dangerous….

Danny has been really stressed lately with college applications and exams, plus the fact that his powers have been getting stronger lately. So one day he flys out to the middle of nowhere and lets off some steam in the form of letting his ice core go a little crazy. He does this every now and then to help him destress, today he used a little more power than usual but no big deal right?

Wrong. One week later the justice league is at his door and confronting him about a series of severe storms that have been created that they managed to track the energy source back to him.

Now they are trying to confront him about being a weather powered meta.

To be fair he was fighting the box ghost when they were learning about hot and cold fronts, how was he supposed to know they could form tornados?
