#this man's a fucking disaster.

so how about that update, huh

[shivasdarknight]

I've got two snippets I present before ye. The first is on my Dreamwidth, as it's a bit lengthy. It's a snippet from the Ysayle-focused fic/eventual Zadnor fic set during 5.3-5.4. It's the first time she and Estinien speak since HVW, so that's fun :3c

The second is here, which is a section I'm editing rn and really like it (it's sexuality talk and Estinien not really having the language to express the fact that he's a demi-bisexual).

But before she could get a word in to let the question die, he surprised her — silver bangs masking most of his expression.  “Most people don’t interest me, really,” he muttered, lips pulled into a thin line.  “Not as if I haven’t tried; I’ve tried as recently as Kugane, if you’ll believe it.  Nothing...clicks.  No one clicks, nothing feels right.” Surkukteni’s brow furrowed at that.  “As in...romantic interest?” To that, he shook his head.  “Sexual, mostly.  Physical attraction.”  That huff of a laugh of his escaped him, a hand moving to cover the lower half of his face.  From what she could see in the gaps of his snowy hair, his eyes were unfocused — lost in the firelight, or maybe somewhere far beyond Othard.  “I don’t at all understand how you do it, because I am well aware of your flings from what I overheard during our…previous travels, and something Lucia and Hilda both alluded to but never went into detail about.” …Thank the Twelve for that.  “I don’t understand the appeal of it, what you get out of it, how you and others I’ve known keep going back to it — it well escapes me.  …Yet for myself, it only crops up at the worst times, as I’m afraid that I am cursed to fall for those closest to me — and all it’s done is cause me grief.” “And that makes you think you’re cursed?”  That notion troubled her greatly.

IM WHEEZING AT THIS

[aroaceleovaldez]

Nico and Percy's dynamic through the series is eternally funny to me, because it's just. like.

Percy's having a constant mental struggle between his fatal flaw of loyalty with a promise he made to Bianca to protect Nico, versus his Big 3 kid desire to maim other Big 3 kids / Poseidon descendant urge to totally maim Nico specifically. He hates Nico so so much. He thinks Nico's annoying and weird at best, and creepy/sketchy when he's older. The only positive thoughts Percy has towards Nico are "He's Bianca's brother and Bianca was my friend and I owe her/He's Hazel's brother and Hazel is my friend and would kill me if I was mean to him," "He's a powerful asset and useful ally (if questionable)," and "He's kinda pathetic and I feel maybe a little bad about it." Percy has multiple occasions throughout the series where he strongly considers - and on one occasionally actually goes through with - throttling Nico.

Meanwhile, Nico is following around Percy like a lost puppy. He explicitly can never bring himself to even dislike anything about Percy no matter how hard he tries. He has a whole bit in BoO where he's mentally going "UGH he's so stupid BUT IT'S ENDEARING HOW DARE HE." He's totally smitten. He's making deals with his dad for Percy. He's making convoluted plans to help Percy stand a chance against Kronos. During the entirety of BoTL it's like he's playing tsundere - "I'm helping NOT PERCY SPECIFICALLY with this quest! Me helping Percy would be SILLY because I DEFINITELY HATE HIM." Then he proceeds to show up to Percy's birthday party to basically ask him on a weird date and spend the entire next book scrambling around trying to help him or protect him or impress him. And Percy could not give less of a shit.

Just. That dynamic is so funny to me. Percy is the founder of the Nico Protection Club in that he's the one they're all protecting Nico from and meanwhile Nico is throwing himself at Percy to the point where the literal god of gay love calls him out on it.

i love eddie diaz with all my heart, but it's the kind of love you have for a wet cat who's trying desperately to pretend that they Did That On Purpose, and that's why i simply cannot get on board with the idea that he is in any way smooth

Thinking about the sniper duo

[thereareeyesinsidethetrees]

stan: how can you be polyamorous and aroace, or…whatever mabel called it?

ford: in my case, i have my family and i have my platonic polycule. i would prefer to never have to interact with anyone outside these two groups

stan: what about soos and wendy? they’re not in either of those groups

ford: first of all, i am soos’ uncle, second of all, are you saying you don’t believe i would both die and kill for wendy?

stan: you’ve got a weird way of defining family, six

ford: it’s my favorite way

I started watching 9-1-1 this year when they did the buck-tommy storyline. I was so excited to see bisexual representation where it occurred during an adult life and was treated as a, "I'm a ally but it guess I'm more now," versus an "I always knew but was too scared." It's a queer story we haven't really seen played out, and I binged like the whole show in damn near 3 weeks.

But by the time I caught up to the man story the buddie stans were being toxic as fuck about bucktommy. It's so damn toxic that outside of Season 7 Episode 4, I haven't watched any further. And I should have known this was going to be the outcome as soon as it started with a black lesbian that I didn't even know existed and received such little love from buddie fans. Like my love and passion for the show was so quickly squashed by toxic fans and to see y'all wishing death on actors and creators because you aren't getting your fucking fetish filled is insane.

Not to mention some of y'alls hot takes are bullshit and so so fucked. I saw a tiktok of someone saying that anyone who ships bucktommy is a horrible person because tommy was a horrible person in two fucking episodes. And yall. The show is about how people change and can become better through self reflection. Not to mention that's such a shity purity culture take. People can be shitty people. But they can change for better. And more often than not they do change for the better as they grow.

Not to mention, the actors for Buck and Eddie have stopped interacting outside of work because of the shit yall are pulling. It's so insane that yall can't see the error of your ways. And if your ship doesn't become canon, then you will have done it to yourself. I'll probably continue to watch the show but I'm definitly going to minimize my interactions with the Fandom at least until some of you grow the fuck up.

I desperately await the reveal of Mafia AU Balam...So while we wait, here's my take on him physically, and my bestfriendwife's take on his role. That being an ex-gangster who's trying to repair and clean up the slums, but everyone is still scared of regardless. In our au he gets dragged back into the gang shit when Kalego, and old associate and friend, calls him back in to babysit/bodyguard for the newest of the Don's kidnapped grandkids

Avatar Love talk 1: Who is the messier Avatar?

Kyoshi, looking at Korra's love life: ......... Korra: ........Kyoshi don't say it. Kyoshi: And here I thought I was messy. Korra: Kyoshi no! Wait, you messy? Aren't you a clean freak- Kyoshi, ignoring her: Really? You pulled your whole squad? You caused a whole situation? You really broke up a couple, twice. And made them both fall for you? Korra: I was 17 and never interacted with people my own age! Give me a break! Kyoshi: I lived on the streets and the only people who interacted with me my age just hit me in the head with rocks. Korra: ...............................I'm sorry. Kyoshi: No, no. It's fine. The reason I'm shocked is....I don't know who is messier. Korra: Come again? Kyoshi: Like is it you? Me? Or Kuruk? I need to know which one of us is the worst, it's keeping me up at night. Korra: ????!!!!!!!!!!! Really?! I...I wasn't expecting this development. Kyoshi: Oh yeah. Yours is a doozy. Kuruk? Man, I cannot even fathom a number to put to the amount of women he was with. Kuruk: I heard my name and came, but I'm thinking I should leave. Kyoshi, grabbing Kuruk: Oh no buddy boi, you still owe me for that damn poem. Korra: Wait, if Kuruk's a manwhore, and I had my squad wrapped around my finger.... What did you do? I thought you've only dated Rangi? Kyoshi: I had a crush on the false Avatar Yun at one point. Korra: Oh that's not- Kyoshi: He stabbed my girlfriend in the back. Korra: .............................. Kyoshi: Oh, and I had this guy feeding me a poem so people would think I was crushing on Rangi-which I was but that's besides the point. Kuruk: Sorry about that again- Korra: Wait that doesn't seem so bad! Kyoshi: The poem he fed me was originally about Hei-Ran. Korra: ...............................Another woman? Well I mean that's a bit-it's not that bad right? Kyoshi: Hei-Ran is Rangi's mother. Korra: Oh.....oh no- Kyoshi: And they look almost like twins. Korra: Oh....Oh dear Raava. Kuruk what did you do? Kuruk: In my defense, the only people who know that poem is about Hei-Ran and not Rangi is.....Me, Kelsang, Kyoshi, and now you! Korra: Holy shit that.....it's still a special kind of messed up. But hey as long as no one else knows- Kyoshi: Korra, sweetie, I have sooooo many mommy issues. And this bastard over here dropped a nuke right on top of it. Korra: ...holy shit Kyoshi: Now I'm not saying I am the messiest, but I'm def in the top 3. I'm still reeling.

My friend said that The Spot has the same style as me so I gave him some of my outfits

Bonus stuff ✨✨✨

The Inquisitor is the foil to Solas in that they gather people together to fight for the common good, and gain a title that grows beyond them.

Rook is the foil to Solas in that they meant to do good but oh BOY did they fuck it up SO bad.

I think one of the funnier parts of replaying Bendy and the Ink Machine after I finished Bendy and the Dark Revival (I did them out of order this time for some reason) is that Henry is soooooo done with everything.

And it makes sense, the man is like 53. He just is so unresponsive and it's hysterical to me for some reason. Ink monsters and a psychopathic angel? Eh, just par for the course.

The short amount of time you see him in Bendy the Dark Revival is great too, he's just sitting on his stool and this mutant ink lady with glowing eyes turns on the light to his little fucking exhibit and asks for directions.

This pathetic wet cat of a middle aged man just says that he's not really a GPS and when she doesn't stop trying to make conversation he sighs and turns around to get his own little swell of music just in time to drop a bomb on the player. And that's pretty much it, everything else is pretty much stuff we already learned, he makes a comment about him not being human (in a kinda dark way, actually), and good luck.

The last time you see this guy is him randomly assisting you in the grand finale, complete with a motivational line. How did he get there? Did he just break out, like you were doing this in the first game why'd you go all limp dick about it? He's just so blase about everything, I adore him.
